Jennifer and I are deeply saddened by the passing of Frank Gehry, a true architectural genius.

He will be missed, but his legacy in California and beyond stands as tall as his finest creations.

We send our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Every federal court has ruled that President Trump's attempt to dismantle birthright citizenship is unconstitutional.

So not only were we busy telling the world what we were doing on insecure Signal chats, we were shooting down our own people at the same time. It has costs to put incompetent people in charge of national security, and I fear we are just beginning to pay them.

Donald Trump promised almost a year ago that he'd "take care" of rebuilding after the Los Angeles firestorms, but survivors are still waiting for him to officially ask Congress for relief.

It's long past time for Trump to wake up and do his job.

It might be funny coming from a person who does interviews for a living, but these tech guys need to sit down (in this case actually) and shut up. The more they talk, the more we see and what we see is unearned aggrievement and deep insecurity that manifests as exhausting arrogance.

I know there is a lot going on right now but Trump continues to light all the levers of American global power on fire and hand huge wins to Russia and China. It is a form of national surrender, of unprecedented sabotage, that will leave this nation less prosperous, less safe, and far less free.
The headline, the main takeaway from a European viewpoint is this:

The transatlantic relationship as we know it is over. Yes, we kinda knew this. But this is now official US White House policy. Not a sppech, not a statement. The West as it used to be no longer exists.
