And, uh, some personal news: This is also my last column for The Post. I was offered and accepted a buyout.
To answer one possible next question, I'm not sure what's next save taking some time off. If you want, you can enter your email at pbump.net and I'll let you know when I figure it out!
For my column today, I wrote about how Trump leveraged America's collapsing trust in institutions — and how his second term has accelerated that collapse. Gift link: wapo.st/3IzN4QA

If one of these people is your senator, it is incredibly important that you call them today.

Urge them to vote NO on the Senate budget bill that would make most Americans poorer to give billionaires a tax cut they don't even need.

Of course. If you were **actually serious** about destroying Iran’s nuclear program, you would have dropped the MOPs on Fordow with complete tactical surprise—without endlessly telegraphing for weeks what you might do and putting on a worldwide TV show about it.
Amazing. NYT has more confirmation that Trump's decision to bomb Iran was motivated in large part by the way the Israeli strikes were "playing" on Fox News, which drove him to want credit for it

It’s a failure of journalism to do shit like this. Donald Trump has said that something will happen “within two weeks” at least 5,000 times in the past decade with easily over 4,900 of those “deadlines” passing with no action.

"There is no regime to change to, unless they arrive in Tehran and are able to install a new regime."

Former US government adviser, Vali Nasr, tells Matt Frei that Trump is "hoping that by threatening Iran", there will be a negotiation.
