Earlier, Axios reported Trump would address the nation Saturday morning. But the White House said reports Trump would do so are inaccurate and that it has not given any guidance on a presidential address or remarks. Trump is currently at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. He posted an eight minute video to his Truth Social account in the early hours of Saturday.
Having started a war, thus far Trump feels no need to address the American people about his choice, as he works out of a Florida hotel and party space. www.reuters.com/world/iran-c...
I like to distract myself from the terrifying political news by reading the ridiculous political news.
I think if I'd gotten away with attempting a coup, suffered no consequences for it, then won an election four years later, got away with executing citizens in the streets and foreigners in boats, and successfully abducted a head of state, I too might think I could just bomb my way to regime change

This is such a well done piece that reports out, with hard data and interviews, something profound about what's gone wrong in this country.

Great piece out today in Physics Today on historical origins, contemporary relevance, & fundamental irreplaceability of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, which remains at imminent risk of dismantling for partisan political reasons.

I don't see how Will Lewis can effectively lead WaPo.
Lewis did not save Bezos from himself on opinion pages. (375K+ cancelations) His innovations did not stem enough red ink.
And he has not taken any ownership of the devastating ensuing cuts. He's making Murray own it alone.
The mass layoffs at the Post really just make me feel a deep sadness for our industry. The severe weakening of the media ecosystem since 2017 has been catastrophic for American democracy. It has also, of course, come at great cost for journalists themselves.
