The Eric Schickler essay in Larry Bartel's symposium on "What Trump Has Taught Us About Political Science" is one of the most insightful pieces I've read in 2025.

US institutions turned out to be weak, and we have to rethink conventional wisdom.

I’m still shocked that stories like this which come out daily still get largely ignored. The most corrupt person to ever hold any public office in US history. I will keep posting them every day and try to amplify them, even when most media doesn’t care. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

200 days into Trump's term, where are we?

In the race between Trump's authoritarianism and efforts to resist it, authoritarianism is ahead. And while there are hopeful signs from the public, the chance of effective resistance is, for now, being fatally undermined by the capitulation of the elites.

I love comic books and I love the movie business. So “Superman” was my chance to do a deeply reported story on what's gone wrong at DC Comics and whether @jamesgunn.bsky.social and Peter Saffran can get it right. Here’s a free link and a 🧵with some juicy scoops: www.wsj.com/business/med...
Saving a Studio? This Looks Like a Job for Superman!
The man of steel is back in a new $225 million reboot. It’s the last, best hope for DC Comics to match the success of the Marvel industrial complex.
