When he passed, his daughter reached out said she’d like me to tell her story too.

I met Melissa Hortman in October of 2024. She was smart and kind. I heard about her murder in a LA hotel room and it dropped me to my knees. So I went to Minnesota and talked to her kids, parents, and friends. This is not true crime, this is Melissa in real life. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

For Rolling Stone, I wrote about the shape of the opposition to Trump 2.0:

“It’s not our job to tell Gavin Newsom, or Jared Polis, or JB Pritzker, ‘This is what you should do.' It’s our job to say, ‘You better be fighting back with everything you got.’”
