On Monday's date, as this writer wandered Barcelona awash in rioja, the legendary Red Baron, Manfred von Richthofen, was killed in 1918 after logging 80 aerial victories in WWI. He was finally undone by a beagle piloting a doghouse.
"What the actual fuck," he was heard to shout as he fell to earth.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.
This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk responds, something we hopefully see a lot more of that from other European leaders. It's never been clearer than in this moment that Trump is Putin's ally, not Europe's.

This was a great piece. As a former PR person I enjoyed the history of how the WH press pool operates and has evolved.
I talked to Chuck Todd about the situation with the AP and the Trump White House, why this is a hill to die on, and why the collective response from the rest of the press corps—and Fox News specifically—has left something to be desired
