While there are often some ethical issues with making free PDFs of paywalled content, in this case it seems entirely justifiable, given the author, the subject, and the journalistic imperative to provide the widest possible audience for the verb "Michael Wolffed"

very odd that the Post would write up someone’s speciation as if it’s news. What are we doing here

I know most of the focus is on RFK Jr.'s weird horny texts, but the news that he used to spam Bill Nye with anti-vax weirdness and Bill was like, "Dude, you're you're confusing correlation for causation" is the only RFK text-message news I will ever need.

The current mayor of New York City, who isn't Jewish, tells the forthcoming mayor of New York City that in order to prove he is not an antisemite he should commit to being part of the Israel Day parade in May 2026.

People are whining a lot but this framing is so much more honest than 99% of nyt blurbs its kind of shocking
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

It's actually a testament to the shift in Discourse that, now that he's mayor of NYC, even NYT now has to explain out the gate WHY he's mad at the synagogue instead of just saying "Muslim guy says mean things to synagogue"

Everyone on here is mad that the article is too pro Israel and everyone on pro Israel Twitter is mad that the NYT is acknowledging that Nefesh B'Nefesh does in fact promote settlements lol

Lizza is undoubtedly a slimeball but is likely a competent enough journalist to not write anything which could give rise to a defamation suit
I don't know what — or really, if anything — in Lizza's account is true, because I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. If *any* of it is true, the fact that we are only hearing about it now, after the fact, to drive subscriptions to his paywalled private newsletter, is frankly vile!

this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

The reason that we reporters are focused so intensely on the L'affair Nuzzi is that, as Olivia notes, it is a basically apocalyptic scandal in the most literal sense of that term: a dropping of masks. It's acting as confirmation of every hideous story anybody's ever told about political journalists

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

However much Antony Blinken and Jake Sullivan are spit upon when they go out in public, it is at least three orders of magnitude too little.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway.

I mostly stay off twitter but I occasionally go back because all the left NIMBYs stayed. The complete copefest going on over Mamdani putting YIMBYs on his housing transition team has been chicken noodle soup for the soul.

i don't get how people watched zohran's campaign and got the impression that he was anything but a massive YIMBY

maybe I'm wrong but this has big Drawn Out Clickbait Energy
This is a lot, but (allegedly) Olivia Nuzzi sent a secret recorder with a sketch artist to tape Trump at Mar-a-Lago so she could feed campaign intel to RFK, where [pauses to take a breath] something Trump said about his assassination attempt “would shatter our understanding of recent history”??
