![Managing requires certain kinds of soft skills, ones I am not confident you possess. They weren’t necessary in your cushy Wall Street Journal op-ed job, or your cushier New York Times op-ed job. They were barely required at the publication you invented, The Free Press. So now you’re the head honcho at CBS News. [highlighted text] Let’s say you decide to skip levels to directly edit a 60 Minutes story. It doesn’t even have to be a controversial story to make all hell break loose — because you have neither the credibility nor the relationships required to take this kind of work on. And what’s more, you’ve got a news division composed exclusively of ambitious piranhas below you — not your handpicked cronies, like Tyler “I wish to see Hollywood virgins” Cowen. These people have decades in television, and you have a newsletter and a history of throwing your colleagues under the bus.

I think they should add Trump’s name to all of the federal buildings and monuments in DC. The Trump Lincoln Memorial. The Trump Washington Monument. The Trump National Mall. The Smithsonian Museum of Natural Trump History. If there’s a building that doesn’t say Trump on it that should be illegal.

It’s such a temptation when everything is so bad to succumb to cynicism and numbness, to say lol nothing matters. These people are doing the opposite, in ways big and small but fundamentally concrete and humane. I’m so grateful to them and everyone holding tight to the imperative to care

I started reporting this story after I’d been back at work for a few months and was starting to once again feel overwhelmed by the amount of pain and harm and cruelty at work in the world. Talking to people about how they are finding ways to care for one another helped.

Every day, people across the country are showing up in concrete ways for their immigrant and undocumented neighbors, and every time these efforts are reported on, they become more normalized as something normies can and should participate in.
