The Proud Boys began as an alcohol-soaked men's club. Then they led the charge on the capitol. Now Trump plans to pardon their imprisoned leaders. What next? . Follow me to the dive bars where I got to know them, for my story w/ Steve Coll in @TheEconomist.

Curious what it's like to be a CDC scientist in the DOGE age? "Be like a bulldog", one said, "keep smiling even when you can't breathe". A dozen insiders risked their jobs to talk to me, and sent along 100 internal emails that get at the chaos and fear:.

Do blue states need to go along with Trump's immigration raids? Can red states boss around their blue cities? This week @arynbraun and I look into how disputes over federalism will dictate the future of the sanctuary movement.

Want to understand the fast and aggressive politics in Washington? Look to Tallahassee, where many of Trump's top dogs learned to hustle, buck conventions & fight for the boss . My dispatch from a state that realigned its politics in record time:.

After her Trump prosecution derailed Fani Willis needed a win. But the Young Thug trial, her second biggest case, didn't deliver: the alleged kingpin walked away with no prison time & a jury acquitted the men on murder charges. Can she survive the blow?
