Politics and nonprofit nerd. Executive search pro in both. Have been preparing to leave the US for a couple of years now. SF/Madrid-based. (I know a lot about moving abroad, if anyone needs tips!) 🏳️🌈
I have concluded, after watching or listening to many podcasts, that Ezra Klein is undereducated and overconfident. Ta-Nehisi told him, in so many words… he still peddles underinformed nonsense and can’t take a hint. Unfortunate waste of time and energy.

I, for one, think Katie Britt is hilarious (as in, a No Talent Ass Clown). Her interview on CNN this morning teleported us all right to her kitchen. How does one get so skilled at peddling vaporware??? Chef’s kiss.

Jake Tapper's book is nothing more than the corporate media trying to shift the blame for 2024 off themselves. Unsure how people can't see this.
