In today's Starting Point newsletter, we’re explaining President Trump’s fixation on tariffs, including those he slapped on Canada, China, and Mexico this weekend.

In Saturday's @CapitalBNews newsletter, I wrote about former President Joe Biden’s last clemency action and the “girlfriend crimes” that led to most of the women who received their commutations winding up in federal prison for life or decades.

You should apply! Highly recommend and agree with Megan, it was a great experience.
There’s still time to apply for the Poynter Leadership Academy for Women in Media, designed to level up the skills for women, nonbinary and gender non-conforming media leaders.
This was a life- and career-changing experience for me. Happy to answer any questions.

Being drop kicked into the memory of my abuela taking me to see Free Willy in ‘93 — and then playfully calling me out on having a crush on Jesse on the bus ride home — was not on my 2024 bingo card.

I see a lot of you still sharing posts from the obviously fake Count Dracula account, so please be aware:
- the real Count would never post during daylight hours in Romania
- his full given name is Vlad, not Vladimir
- he does not actually say “blah” and would never write it out in a post
