It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

Oops, it's an old story, and my point still stands, and I don't suspect things have gotten better.

Has any political story under-performed as much as Trump's conviction on 34 felonies?

On paper, that's a Top 3 story in American political history. Instead, I bet a majority of voters would say it's not true.

we do, and it’s wrong. “Pre” relegates precum to a subordinate status, always “less than.” It has its own story that deserves to be told
actually on bluesky we don’t call them drafts we call them precum

It's like none of these guys have heard the story about the scorpion and the frog
"In a letter to chief executive Tim Cook, FTC chair Andrew Ferguson cited recent press coverage of a report from conservative media watchdog Media Research Center which claimed that Apple has promoted “leftist outlets” in its news feed."

I know it’s not worth debunking his stupid conspiracy theories, but objects have very much survived incidents that you’d think would disintegrate everything. There’s a bittersweet story about the Challenger soccer ball: www.espn.com/espn/story/_...

On Jan. 28,1986, the space shuttle Challenger stunned the nation when it broke apart 73 seconds into flight. This is the story of the soccer ball that survived -- and the family that sent it into spac...

Transitioning later in life isn’t just about identity.

It’s about discovering yourself.

It’s proof that you can rewrite your story at any age, choose yourself fully and light the way for others.

They were ready for chaos. What they got was discipline.
An update to my January piece: why ICE is reportedly drawing down in Minneapolis...and why the absence of violence may be the real story. Sometimes the headline isn’t what exploded.
It’s what didn’t.

The story of our current political moment will be written in retrospect as one of elites creating alternative information environments for themselves and then freaking out because of them. It’s like telling exaggerated ghost stories at a sleepover and then everyone not sleeping.

Hey remember the shooting in Minneapolis that happened between Renee Good and Alexi Pretti, the guy they claimed was shot by an agent after he had attacked that agent with a shovel? I know it's hard to believe but the agents' story fell apart and charges were dropped. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/u...

This story is from 2018. It's still important to show Trump treating migrants cruelly isn't new, but I think you should make it clear that this isn't a current event
