My time at @PostOpinions is sadly at an end! I loved editing our talented columnists and bringing in relevant outside voices from across the ideological spectrum. Unfortunately, they're going in a different direction now. I wish them luck. As for me, If you're up to something…
One of my ancestors was a slave in the original colonies for many years. They had a child, that child was then was sold in South America to work on a planatation, then participated in a slave uprising there which led to them ending up back in Nigeria. Ancestry is complicated!
Many of the people who talk up "Heritage Americanism" today are descendants of people--Jews, Irishmen, Italians--who were abominated by the "Heritage Americans" of an earlier time. The Know Nothings and their kin decried the new arrivals as unfit for American life. On it goes.
New: The Trump administration had a 4-part plan for the labor market in 2025. None of it worked. The administration bet on government cuts, tariffs, deportations, and breadwinners to seal their working-class coalition. The economics didn't pay out. newsletter.mikekonczal.com/p/a-year-in-th…
It is very hard to tell what is some small online/astroturfed niche and what is breaking through, this is among the most disturbing pieces yet when it comes to the far right Zoomers city-journal.org/article/manhat…
The deficit is more daunting than it was than it was when Romney ran for President in 2012. I'm glad to see him updating, appreciating that taxes should be part of the solution. And not just minor tax "loopholes," he wants to seal the "tax caverns." nytimes.com/2025/12/19/opi…
That was the joke Obama made at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2011.
Remember this moment when Biden is nominated again in 2028
NEWS: The DNC is killing off its 2024 autopsy. DNC Chairman Ken Martin has decided not to publish a public report, believing that a backward-looking document would be counterproductive as the party has started winning. nytimes.com/2025/12/18/us/…
Some really, really impressive reporting here. NOTUS asked over 120 House lawmakers whether they’re running for reelection. They got some good clues that the wave of retirements we’ve all heard about is coming. notus.org/congress/repub…
Cincinnatus returns to his plough, inspiring
Sounds like Trump is confirming Dan Bongino is leaving the FBI as deputy director, telling reporters he did a great job and “wants to go back to his show.”
It’s fine to raise the thing, they have division wins up there, we are all aware the team has not won a championship lately, there’s no need to box yourself into diminishing every other achievement
Knicks will not raise an NBA Cup banner at Madison Square Garden, per league source. NYK doesn't want to diminish accomplishment but has bigger goals in mind, winning title in June, source said. NYK is very proud of players & staff winning NBA Cup and will celebrate…
The year journalists abandon the press conference niemanlab.org/2025/12/the-ye…
Very interesting piece that is not playing it safe relative to his political wing and is a direct rejoinder to Vance on multiple points
Vivek Ramaswamy, in a New York Times guest essay: “If, like Mr. Fuentes, you believe that Hitler was ‘really f-ing cool,’ or if you publicly call Usha Vance a ‘jeet,’ then you have no place in the conservative movement, period.” nytimes.com/2025/12/17/opi…
