they've just never had to work hard for anything, they've never had to fight for anything, they're never satisfied with their efforts, they've never had anything they wanted to fight *for*, they don't believe in anything or anyone, including themselves

Summary by Bloomberg Al
• Vanity Fair and Olivia Nuzzi have agreed to part ways following new revelations and allegations about an affair with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and her behavior while reporting on him.
• Nuzzi's new book, "American Canto", and Substack posts by her ex-fiancé Ryan Lizza have revived questions about her ethical conduct as a journalist.
• Reviews of "American Canto" have been overwhelmingly negative, and an investigation into Nuzzi's work at New York magazine found no inaccuracies nor evidence of bias.

(Wall Street Journal) -- Vanity Fair and Olivia Nuzzi have agreed to part ways following new revelations and allegations about an affair with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and her behavior while reporting on him, according to people with knowledge of the decision.
Nuzzi wrote a profile of Kennedy in 2023, when she was New York magazine's Washington correspondent. The magazine parted ways with her in late 2024 after news of her relationship with Kennedy prompted an investigation into her work.
Her new book, titled "American Canto" and detailing her affair with an unnamed politician -- along with a series of scathing Substack posts published in recent weeks by her ex-fiancé, longtime political journalist Ryan Lizza -- have revived questions about her ethical conduct as a journalist.
Nuzzi signed on earlier this year as Vanity Fair's West Coast editor. It was a short-term contract that expires at the end of the year, according to people familiar with its terms. The publication said at the time that she would be focusing on
"events, industries, and culture of the Pacific region, as well as writing for the magazine."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kdgcvfaickr7turpo6suzbqp/bafkreih3sz373jwljujoqnd3zn7calcy3ijftatqxgid6q7jkj6sd5tgcq@jpeg)

worth saying that some portion of the freed slaves were themselves illegal aliens having been brought illegally into the united states by smugglers. if the birthright clause applies to them, it applies to undocumented immigrants
Here is the question presented. It's a relatively clean vehicle for the Supreme Court to finally decide whether it is lawful for the president to deny birthright citizenship to the children of immigrants. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25...

Just a thin layer of ice on roadways is enough to make driving hazardous⚠️
Bridges and overpasses are especially prone to ice formation that is difficult to see, as winds beneath the structures accelerate cooling and maintain lower surface temperatures.
Remember -- Ice or snow take it slow!

It's hard to explain to normies how much effort Trump is putting into anti-trans policies.
This is like the 12th thing just this week. And there were 12 things the week before, and 12 things the week before that. There will be 12 things next week.
This is almost everything the government is doing.
