History repeats.

In late February 1921, 2 weeks before taking office as POTUS, Warren Harding writes a letter to the richest man in America, William Randolph Hearst, thanking him for helping him win the presidency with favorable coverage in major newspapers he owned & begging for his advice.

Some books really are like their authors: this one is erudite, theoretically rich, very clear, and contains some of the most quintessential deadpan British humour. An absolute joy to read

UK newspaper The Guardian is leaving social media platform X, citing billionaire owner Elon Musk’s influence during the US election process.
The Guardian quits ‘toxic’ X over Elon Musk using it to influence politics

Donald Trump just announced that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead a new department called the Department of Government Efficiency or "DOGE."

Trump says it "will become, potentially, 'The Manhattan Project' of our time."

I am not kidding.
