The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram).
Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.
PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.
You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!
I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.
You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.

One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.
Have fun with today’s cryptogram and have a MARVELOUS MONDAY.
Are those classified documents under the bike? (heh)
Never heard of the author, but the first word just popped-out at me.

How many images of Biden will there be in this thread?
She died 33 years before I was born.
How many?….. probably a LOT. Y’all have fun and go for it. He won’t be around for us to point out much longer.
The devil you know....
I’m very suspicious of all of the sudden discovery of the documents. They’re up to something. Even the media has piled on. Something’s not right.
