No idea why an Afghan refugee shot National Guard soldiers within walking distance of the White House, but this new USCIS directive was revealed on Monday. Worth noting.
The folks at @afghanevac.bsky.social have in hand a new USCIS directive which largely targets Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.

In case you needed a reminder that the most loathsome people in the world work for DHS.

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.
It didn’t even take 6 hours.

a side note: you can learn *a lot* about British journalism when you realize that Boris Johnson was fired from his first job in it for serial dishonesty, and then promptly hired into a new job, where he continued to make up lies.
Not to pat my profession on the back, for all of our problems, but I do think it's to the law's credit that every US bar association that reviewed Glass' application for a license went "fuuuuuuuuuuuck no."

Tune in next time to see what Ryan said Olivia said Izzy said Trump said. Explosive!
this — considering that Florida is a two-party consent state — might even be a crime. i’m floored

“He isn’t worried about Trump’s political wrath; he doesn’t plan to run for reelection.

His fear of speaking out is much more personal: ‘I’d rather my house not get firebombed’”

It is the ugliest, most naked form of the old "save the *really* juicy stuff for the book" political journalist grift, and by its sheer tackiness reveals how slimy that broader grift is

Speaking as a journalist, it has long been clear — and more so all the time — that something is *rotting* in the world of New York and Washington political reporting. Actively, visibly suppurating. Oozing with maggots. Even as many of the people in that world have denied it.

But now he sees her capitalizing off of cuckolding him and he is releasing it now to reassert his dominance over her.

They are both irredeemable pieces of shit.

Okay this is not meant as a defense of Nuzzi at all but how did Lizza get all of this info? As reporters working at rival publications I can't imagine this was casual dinner conversation.

She accused him in a court doc of hacking her devices and I actually believe her.

yep. also really can't overstate how much nuzzi is very much the product of an environment that rewards amoral ambition and frowns on people who sincerely believe anything

I think plenty of it speaks to the state of the media, but an obvious one is that Vox and Vanity Fair barely investigated her and that she managed to commit an unforgivable journalistic crime before getting a book deal and walking into another prestige job, while plenty of others are being laid off
you know, what if they aren't actually a commentary on journalism or the state of media. what if these people are just extremely weird

i think all the time about the discourse around the oscars slap. i forget who it was who said this but their takeaway was "listen, these are three highly specific and extremely strange individuals colliding at once in a singular event. there is nothing to be learned or extrapolated here"

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"

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"
