The right wing marketplace’s feud over Tucker Carlson and anti-Semitism is worth watching—it could play a role in whether JD Vance becomes the next President. My new piece at the newsletter: https://t.co/mZJzN5qm4D

Citing DC crime data misses the mark, IMO; after all, Trump and crew made very clear that they’re only concerned with certain types of crime, in certain parts of the city, against certain types of people. My new column: https://t.co/NBtaaapvAp

Trump’s excuse for firing the BLS commissioner doesn’t even make sense under his nonsensical conspiracy theory. My new one, as we await his nominee to replace her: https://t.co/gAnCabUmYn

Tulsi Gabbard, the country’s top intelligence official, launched a clearly false allegation at a former President. Which is worse: if she’s lying, or if she believes it? My new piece: https://t.co/iBBO9y7as0

Are we safer after bombing Iran? Will other countries start nuclear weapons programs? Why was a recent global meeting on nuclear power plant security so “gloomy”? My new interview with former U.S. Ambassador to the IAEA Laura Holgate: https://t.co/TJkdLQLDMJ

20years ago, you couldn’t find isolationists in the GOP. But that might have been when the rift began that we now see splitting the party as Trump considers attacking Iran. My new one: https://t.co/tS6fIC1Rda

I’ve covered a lot of protests. They are seldom just one thing, and it’s useful to remember that when watching what’s happening in LA (10 miles from me). https://t.co/Heeqp5KpHM
