Peter Arnett was a huge inspiration to me as a journalist. His coverage of the Gulf War was as iconic a role as we’ve ever had in US journalism. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/17/w...

This deserves more attention. He’s trying to buy the troops’ loyalty with money that Congress, not him, already allocated to them.
Trump is taking money out their housing allowances approved by Congress and giving it to them in a “bonus” so it looks like it came from him. It’s just a shell game with military pay from the ultimate con man

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

In Vanity Fair, Susie Wiles says she’s “not an enabler.” I believed that lie once too.
Church on Sundays doesn’t erase dismantled PEPFAR and global aid, detained citizens, pardoned insurrectionists, or normalized extremism. You can’t work under Trump at that level without enabling harm.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.
One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.
The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.
