This started late at 4 at Lamont Park plaza and the peaceful sounds of opener Wayta are happening. The drummer is sitting on and hitting w/ his hands a Peruvian cajon box drum which nicely adds some rhythm. 3 DC cop cars circled the plaza earlier but didn’t stop & moved on .

Why I Left the Washington Post Owner Jeff Bezos wants to transform the Opinions section of the paper, where I worked for forty years. After the publisher killed my column disagreeing with that move—it appears here in full—I decided...

"This wasn’t the triumph of hope over experience; it was the elevation of willful self-delusion over all available evidence."

The column @ruthmarcus.bsky.social didn't get to publish: www.newyorker.com/news/essay/w...

Bezos’ Directive for Washington Post Opinion Pages Leads to Editor David Shipley’s Exit David Shipley, The Post’s opinion editor, is resigning after trying to persuade Jeff Bezos to reconsider the new direction.

SCOOP: Jeff Bezos’s rightward shift has been long in the making. In January, Will Lewis sent a memo to David Shipley summarizing Jeff’s vision for a WSJ-style opinions section. Shipley expressed doubts, suggested compromises and finally said he couldn't do it.

Legendary WaPo Editor Slams Bezos’ ‘Disgusting’ MAGA Makeover Former executive editor Marty Baron told the Daily Beast there was “no doubt in my mind” that Bezos was prioritizing his business interests over The Washington Post.

“What Bezos is doing today runs counter to what he said, and actually practiced, during my tenure at The Post,” Baron added. “I have always been grateful for how he stood up for The Post and an independent press... Now I couldn’t be more sad and disgusted.” www.thedailybeast.com/ex-wapo-edit...

Opinion | The college president who is fighting back against Trumpism Wesleyan University’s president is advocating for values in higher education while others stay silent.

Lots of leaders of colleges and other key institutions are staying silent, either out of fear or a misguided view of "neutrality." But not Michael Roth. wapo.st/4k1ueQt

Reminder number 56,239 of how gobsmackingly good my colleagues are at exposing the truth.

Even in the midst of tough times for the paper, Post journalists like @davidnakamura.bsky.social, Lisa Rein and Matt Viser are relentless and essential.

President Trump has pardoned or ordered the release of virtually all who were federally prosecuted for Jan. 6, including those convicted of seditious conspiracy or assaulting police officers.
