I hope that this doesn't just become about "Nuzzi is bad" but fosters a wider recognition that our culture of political journalism that didn't just tolerate her, but promoted and celebrated her even after the allegations were known, is rotten to the core and has been for a long time.
this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

We do know who killed JFK. The Warren Commission was an incredibly thorough and good-faith effort to prove and document what had happened, which they did. The conspiracy theories arose in spite of best efforts to avoid them, but there really isn't anything they could have reasonably done better.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

BREAKING:
Sen. Elissa Slotkin says police responded to her home tonight in response to a bomb threat. Slotkin wasn't at home at the time.
This is two days after Trump said Slotkin and other Democrats committed "seditious conspiracy, punishable by death."

Going to end on one of the most beautiful commercials ever made with the reminder and a call to remember the small things. They make a big difference to others.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Abughazaleh called the charges "political prosecution" and a "gross attempt to silence dissent, a right protected under the First Amendment."

Mark Walter, principal owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, serves as CEO of Guggenheim Partners, which holds ~$12 million stake in the GEO Group, a private prison corporation that operates ICE detention centers.
This is why the Dodgers won’t directly condemn the raids destroying immigrant families.

I don’t mind that the owners of the Dodgers are squirming right now.
Because they also own a piece of a growing system of concentration camps that hold folks like me in dark, painful, & deadly environments.

Today, I’m making the decision to stop drinking. Fallen into a bad habit with it, and need to make a change. I’ve gone periods of time before without it, and life was a lot better. No better time to try to get better than right now.
