Rebroadcast: In 2023, on the occasion of FDR's birthday (January 30), the FDR Presidential Library hosted a conversation and book signing with Jonathan Darman, author of BECOMING FDR: THE PERSONAL CRISIS THAT MADE A PRESIDENT. ow.ly/OjgV50Y50Ug

I deeply identify with this from Ashley Parker. If you were a kid growing up in the DC area of the 80s and 90s, the Post WAS your hometown. And if you got hooked on journalism, it was very likley because of Style.

"In the wargame, absent American leadership, Russia managed within a couple of days to destroy the credibility of NATO and establish domination over the Baltics." wsj.com/world/europe/a…

Much of the mourning for the late great The Washington Post has rightly focused on how democracy dies in darkness at the national level, which is hugely important. But the evisceration of Metro coverage is every bit as devastating because there is no comparable news outlet keeping

Here is the structural asymmetry: The tactical battlefield favors Washington. Time favors Tehran.

Warner: "There was no imminent threat to the United States by the Iranians. There was a threat to Israel. If we equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the US, then we are in uncharted territory."

A hallmark of Trump/Kushner/Witkoff policy is indifference or ignorance toward people who do not have 24/7 access to a private jet. x.com/TVietor08/stat…

Looks like a total failure of State Department planning. Maybe the position of Secretary of State should, in fact, be a full-time job? x.com/usembassyjlm/s…

This is absolute insanity. American citizens stranded in the region pay taxes, too. But those taxes are going to the physical and economic destruction of the region, by an administration with no plan, except to keep dropping more bombs
