Why I joined @thefp : I knew I didn’t fit in when Politico let @benshapiro guest write an edition of Playbook. I told a colleague I was stoked because “this helps legitimize us.” They responded that they were taking a mental health day to process ‘Shapirogate.’

NPR is why I got into journalism. But it’s also partially why I left legacy media. By 2018, Trump voters wouldn’t talk to me, and I didn’t blame them—we often painted them as racists. And if I ever booked a white man, I’d better have a reason why. @uberliner on NPR’s fall⬇️

I found DeSantis Democrats in all parts of the city—Little Havana, an Upper East Side strip club and South Beach. Most were motivated by fundamental economic concerns, like inflation. Some were tired of having their language policed by friends and family.

The Democrats I spoke with who voted for DeSantis are not unlike someone who has been visited by an extraterrestrial; they have seen something—either an unfair tax system or a culture of enforced homogeneity—that no one else seems to believe.

The Asbury revival started when Zach Meerkreebs, a volunteer soccer coach, gave "the least planned, least studied, least organized" sermon of his life. Thinking he'd bombed, he immediately texted his wife, "latest stinker. I'll be home soon." But that sermon ignited something.

Even in the bluest cities, Americans are pushing back against harm reduction, saying it’s “enabling” drug users—and ruining neighborhoods. “Progressives have basically turned harm reduction into mass enablement of addiction,” @shellenberger told me.

Now almost 50 years old, the camera has a light leak it in and needs to be serviced. Here's a photo of Jim Real Bird, the Crow tribal member who hosts an annual reenactment of the Battle of the Little Bighorn every June.

This is the mob that tried to intimidate @bariweiss . Perhaps they thought that yelling “baby killers” would convince us to go home. But they cannot shame us out of something for which we are proud: we are Jews, and like our ancestors who came before us—we choose freedom.

This fall, several Jewish students at Tulane University were assaulted by a pro-Palestine mob. And yet, when I later spoke to someone who saw the violence, their message was: “Tulane is another outpost of Zionism in this city." No mention of the violence.

Jim Real Bird (center) has hosted a reenactment of the Battle of the Little Bighorn for the past 31 years. He says he used to be able to send 60 warriors galloping down the battlefield, but now the most he can get together is 30, maybe 40. “Times are changing,” he says.

In elementary school, I held a Great Rebellion against attending Hebrew school—and I've regretted it ever since. When I wrote in my latest @thefp story that each generation of American Jews seem to grow less connected to their faith, I was talking about the data—but also myself.

Hello from New York City, where there are “no human is illegal” stickers everywhere and I’ve ground dinner parties to a halt by mentioning the border. But here at @TheFP , we believe in something a little old fashioned: debate. Not name calling, not cancellation campaigns—debate.…
