To paraphrase Warren Buffett, it’s only when the tide goes out that you learn who’s been swimming without a bathing suit
Editors have a really hard job, and the good ones can make something unreadable readable, and the great ones can make something unreadable into something good. But they're basically invisible, until someone tries to write without one.

I’ve reported on so many regular people being threatened and villified by conspiracy theories and hatred for people, many times spread by MTG. It’s awful when anyone has to deal with harassment and threats and I wonder if the congresswoman can look inward, too

i’m continually struck by the joy zohran has brought to this election and the absolute venom with which it’s been met.
For New Yorkers who work the night shift, it can be nearly impossible to participate in political life of our city.
So tonight we’re bringing this campaign to them — starting with taxi drivers waiting at LaGuardia.

It will be interesting to see what will happen to the "Duke of York" title from here on out.
Historically, the title has been given to the second son of the monarch. I wonder if Andrew's association with it means it'll be put back on the shelf for a few generations...
