Some thoughts on the release of the hostages’ bodies today. There’s enough sorrow to share. Enough empathy to go around. Let us break open, rather than close up.

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

If you're in NYC on Monday night, come to the Ukrainian Institute, where I will have the honor of talking to @avindman.bsky.social about his excellent & well timed new book, THE FOLLY OF REALISM. (Our new king should come. It's in his hood & he might learn something.) www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticket...

Please stop shaming federal workers for their decisions to stay and fight or resign in protest. You don't know their lives or what they have the privilege of doing. It's like yelling at a rape survivor for not reporting.

@raskin.house.gov: "The whole anti-corruption crusade is an absolute fraud. They started by decimating the ranks of the inspectors general. These are the people whose job is actually, day in and day out, 365 days a year, to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in the departments and the agencies."

One of the greatest tricks that Donald Trump and Elon Musk ever pulled is to convince millions of people that DOGE is about government efficiency. It's about narcissistic, resentful destruction: The Death of Government Expertise. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

NEW: Trump’s FEMA administrator just sent out an email ordering all employees to stop sending things to the media without prior authorization. It was immediately sent to me by a FEMA employee without prior authorization to share with you.
