National Guard aren’t ICE or Border Patrol. They didn’t sign up looking to harass and repress people. They’re volunteers, part time, in case of emergency. They didn’t ask for this.

Here's the problem: CEO life is literally not possible for all 350 million Americans and your job is to make it as close to attainable as possible for the people under you purview. You just... refuse to do it. I am not an expert on morality but imo this is a moral abdication in extremis.

Nuzzi is in California, still hanging around with anti-vaccine influencer buddies (and RFK, Jr. hangers on) like Jessica Reid Krauss.
Also these are people at the heights of the industry, and both Nuzzi and Lizza were almost instantly rehabilitated by top media companies after a first round of scandals that should have made them radioactive. Now lo and behold, much bigger shoes to drop, and we probably haven't seen the last of it.
The reason that we reporters are focused so intensely on the L'affair Nuzzi is that, as Olivia notes, it is a basically apocalyptic scandal in the most literal sense of that term: a dropping of masks. It's acting as confirmation of every hideous story anybody's ever told about political journalists

Trump’s surrounded by people who want Russia to win. Or who get that the deal for helping him back in 2016 was that they get Ukraine.
The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?
