A fundraiser for the 5-year-old girl critically injured in a crash involving Britt Reid, the son of Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, has brought in more than $300,000.
“Ariel remains in the hospital in critical condition and is not awake,” her aunt wrote on the GoFundMe page Monday. “No progress updates as of right now.”
As previously reported, Reid’s pickup slammed into a vehicle on a highway entrance ramp on over the weekend. Ariel and her 4-year-old cousin were injured in the accident. Ariel’s mother had pulled onto the ramp to help a family member who had run out of gas.
Walt Kelly would have been 97 years old today, if he were still alive. Sadly he’s not, and we need him more than ever. I grew up reading Pogo, and it informed my political consciousness as much as anything else that was going on in the 1960s. Kelly was actually just as important in the 1950s, though, when he was one of the first to go after Wisconsin Senator Joe McCarthy–he risked a lot, which makes him a hero. As it turned out, he risked a lot during the 1960s and early 1970s as well, especially when Nixon was around. He did a particularly good job with Spiro Agnew.
