Mere weeks ago, media outlets were still publishing pieces asking where the “resistance” was. It seems we are now well past that: Possibly, that’s because “the resistance” is bubbling up in too many places to track.

Crucial from @anneapplebaum.bsky.social: ABC News' surrender to Trump shows news orgs are vulnerable to pressure on companies that own them. Trump will use the state to threaten them. "It looks like they’re making concessions in advance," she tells me. On the pod: newrepublic.com/article/1894...

FACT CHECK: It's not true that *only* Hunter got a get-out-of-jail-free card. Biden's aides also just quietly gave all of Corporate America a get-out-of-jail-free card - and it arrived just as many of Biden's staff are likely looking for jobs in the corporate sector.

The most expensive election in American history was in 1896, costing about 0.06 percent of U.S. GDP. This year was more expensive, especially if you count Elon Musk's in-kind donation of purchasing the information machine of Twitter, writes @ryanlcooper.com.
