NEW from our Bill Kristol: "The current state of American capitalism isn't sustainable. It doesn't deserve to be sustained. And the best way to avoid an American version of 'eat the rich' is to fix the current 'let them eat cake' distortion of capitalism into which we've fallen."

Trump’s paper of record…compares him to Biden! “By denying that reality, Trump is making the same mistake as his archnemesis, Lyin’ Biden.” nypost.com/2025/11/06/o...
Affordability is an urgent and burning issue, Mr. President — Americans want action
President Trump campaigned on making life more affordable. Inflation may have been tamed to 2%-3%, which is positive, yet prices aren’t going down as he says — and probably never will.

Remarkable rebuke of the GOP in VA. Jones ran a weak campaign, had a bad texting scandal in the final month and got hammered by the public safety unions on TV for the last few weeks in BIG prime time, like Sunday Night Football, World Series etc AND he’s going to win easily. 🌊

This is a smart, important piece zeroing in on something I’ve been saying for the last few months—Thiel, Yarvin, Musk—Trump… they all want to crash the dollar. They benefit the most.
An alternative currency that (at least theoretically) acquires value from a weaker dollar is cryptocurrency, and Trump *just happens* to hold a multibillion-dollar chunk of crypto.
That’s no small conflict of interest. trib.al/Wyptxco

Today is the 50 year anniversary of my mom Maureen Orth’s Newsweek cover story on a “shy 26 year old singer from NJ.” That’s her and Springsteen playing at an Asbury Park arcade & then hanging with Stevie. Re the other big weekly magazine running a profile that same week, Mom says “I had it first!”
