In my lifetime, I have read probably 10,000 stories about municipal government in some place or other… and this is easily in the top 5.

The useful political lesson of the Mamdani-Columbia story is that racial self-identification can be more complicated than a lot of (White) people appreciate.

This is the wildest story I have literally ever read. In any normal circumstances, a half-dozen senior officials would be forced to resign over this—starting with the National Security Advisor. And I doubt anyone will face any accountability at all.
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

I think reasonable minds can differ on whether newspaper endorsements for president move votes or whether journalistically they are sound practice. But it’s a damned odd time for a few very rich owners to suddenly change the policy about it.
