Not to be overly obvious here, but many people seeking asylum need phones to keep in touch with loved ones, access crucial information etc. Having a phone isn't a "luxury item" anymore. It is a necessity for many people. Taking it away has serious implications.

Honestly, it's where I think Arendt was right the most: the question of judgement and the flight from it
I'm still thinking about this exchange. As is often the case, we see Nuzzi acting out the most extreme version of a phenomenon that is actually pretty common in elite media: people taking umbrage at the idea that they're supposed to exercise moral judgment, and can be blamed for not doing so.
@timmiller.bsky.social: "He's being nominated to HHS Secretary…You had information that you could have shared…and you didn't share anything about him. Why? Did you still love him?"
