There will be a version of Democrat who, when/if this era is over, will support “moving on” in the name of “unity” rather than investigating, prosecuting and punishing those perpetrating these crimes & I very much look forward to supporting their primary opponents

Thanks @nytimes.com for naming THE SLIP one of their 100 notable books of 2025. A fun aspect of promoting this book has been meeting other writers hawking their wares across the country, and it’s great to see many of them here too.
