My 11 years of #recovery haven’t been a straight line. I’ve relapsed after 3 years, after 1 year… I’ve had stretches where I felt completely hopeless—fighting both #addiction and clinical #depression.

lol I just can’t believe she’s comfortable talking to people who put together “60 Minutes” like this
Bari Weiss just sent this Christmas Eve email to the CBS News staff about "building trust," which includes her tripling down on spiking the CECOT piece "to make sure it's comprehensive and fair."
One CBS staffer tells me: "She really has no idea how insulting she comes across."

extremely proud of this. I overcame my own inertia, publishing industry disinterest, and an alarming political climate and made this thing real. If I wait three years to do it again, the next book will be released into a very different world. Hopefully better!
