The Post laid off seemingly the remaining of their liberal-leaning staff members on Opinion last Thursday, when some of them were observing Yom Kippur.

This CBS News situation is really helping my imposter syndrome about being an editor in chief. I spent MONTHS agonizing over whether or not I was ready to helm a tiny newsroom and interviewing other EICs about what they wish they’d known — and golly, she has a lot less reporting experience than I do

Yes, very difficult to remember the extremely common name of "Ghislaine Maxwell," a person you might only from their association with one of the most famous criminals in history, who was also your best friend. I could see how you'd need a little refresher.

Trump on pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell: Haven't heard the name in so long. I’ll take a look at it. I’ll speak to the DOJ. A lot of people have asked me for pardons.

Reporter: But she’s convicted of sex trafficking

Trump: I’ll have to take a look at it.

i saw One Battle After Another a couple days before it came out, at a film festival, and subsequently, was given a promotional t-shirt with a super high contrast stencil picture of Di Caprio on it and every time I see it in in my laundry hamper I think it's a picture of GG Allin

i could write a tome about how fucking embarrassing it is for journalism that someone as morally bankrupt as bari weiss has ascended to the highest levels of money and power by tickling trump's balls but instead i'm going to keep covering the people hurt most by his terror and giving them a voice.
