After she held up a dummy of Donald Trump’s severed head, the comedian became a Hollywood pariah. The way she sees it, she was right all along—and not just about the president.

Divorce him already, Usha! On the latest episode of #StandingRoomOnly, @amandamarcotte.bsky.social dives into VP J.D. Vance’s public treatment of his wife and the politics of divorce — with guest Slate senior writer @scaachi.bsky.social. Premiering now: bit.ly/45vXh8b
Divorce him already, Usha
Vice President J.D. Vance and his wife Usha seem very unhappy together in their public appearances. Usha looks miserable and talks about wanting to return to her career and home, while J.D. runs her down, uses her as a prop, and discusses marriage and parenthood like they’re requirements that must be endured. But what disturbs me the most is that his policy positions suggest that he wants Usha to subsume her South Asian identity to his family’s whiteness. Joining me this week to discuss the politics of divorce, the Vice President’s interracial marriage, and what Usha should do next is Scaachi Koul, a Senior Writer for Slate and the author of “Sucker Punch,” available now.

also this segment really says it all for me. folks don’t care if Perry’s politics are flimsy or if she’s unethical, they just wanna be entertained. that says a lot about everything we’re dealing with these days.

On Monday morning, Slate was suddenly informed that six of its employees—including three editors, two of whom were members of the union—were being laid off, just months after four other staffers were also let go. The Slate Union's official statement reads as follows:
