One year ago I began talking to an atheist chaplain, Devin Moss, who was giving spiritual care to an atheist man on death row in Oklahoma, named Phillip Hancock. I followed along as they wrestled with the question: How do you face death without God? bit.ly/3OdAiHb

Trump shouts out RFK Jr at his event tonight: "People like you Bobby," he said, then jokes: "don’t get too popular Bobby…you've reach about the level."

Democrats don't have an answer to the conservative media landscape of influencers and podcasters popular with young men, a factor in the Gen Z shift toward Trump. They have cast around for a "liberal Joe Rogan." But the problem goes deeper. W/@boreskes: nytimes.com/2024/11/13/us/…


"Mr. Trump spent roughly 172 hours speaking in his public and media appearances on or after July 23. Ms. Harris’s speaking time totaled about 69 hours." nytimes.com/2024/11/14/ups…

As AI threatens to steal work from artists and replace them, creative people are also finding inspiration in the technology. For my latest story I checked out a play, comedy show and art museum all dedicated to AI's ethical quandaries, impact, risks, absurdities, even CEOs.…

Is it race? Is it class? Why not both? I wrote a book about the rise of "right-wing populism" in the early 1990s — it may interest you! us.macmillan.com/books/97803746…

Was really hoping Trump’s relatively uncontroversial early nominations meant this piece would be proven wrong, but it’s… not looking good. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…


"There are so many corpses, multiple residents and a local doctor said, that stray dogs have begun to pick at them in the streets." Devastating reporting from @jacknicas @adamrasgon @Hibamyazbek bit.ly/4euruqN

Trump has made clear his opposition to homeless encampments. He was also endorsed by Joe Lonsdale, whose institute is behind many of America's new camping bans, including in Kentucky. I spent time there to examine what these bans look like for the homeless bit.ly/4eyskmA

one lil thing re joe rogan: honestly he’s a little old for a lot of the conservative young men we’re talking about. when we were in madison talking to kids, rogan came up, yes, but he was like fifth on the list. these guys are listening and learning from people you’ve never of!

In Kentucky, a new law prohibits sleeping outside. In April, the State Legislature made unsanctioned public camping illegal and then in June, the US Supreme Court handed down a ruling that protected bans on homeless encampments via @NYTimes' @emmabgo buff.ly/4fRjCkr


absolutely wild use of cormac mccarthy here!

One of the most important skills I see in successful (and good) people is to constantly reevaluate assumptions. They make predictions based on various inputs, some of them unknown, and reevaluate based on what they got right and wrong. They trust people not because they're always…

A month after the SCOTUS Grants Pass decision, I followed an outreach worker around Kentucky homeless encampments as they were being cleared — and the photos in this story by @jonpcherry are just stunning. nytimes.com/2024/11/05/bus…

Would a Bernie Sanders type figure have out-performed Harris for POTUS this cycle? It’s … possible. But anybody making the strong version of this argument should grapple with the fact that a Bernie-type figure *under-performed* Harris this cycle. His name? Bernie Sanders.…

“People are not going to disappear. They are going to have to sleep somewhere else,” - @DennisCulhane of @Penn A study this year found no significant correlation between ordinances criminalizing homeless activities & a long-term reduction in homelessness. nytimes.com/2024/11/05/bus…

Good thread from Rachel who can always, always be relied upon to think and talk straight.

I’m seeing a lot of lefties talking about a failure to appeal to the working class but I think we should be more specific about some of the tensions embedded in this conversation, and I’m going to start with one of Biden’s signature policies - the expanded child tax credit /1

New: Arizona's recently approved ballot measure represents a fundamental shift in how cities might approach homeless encampment clearings — leveraging municipal budgets, rather than court orders or state laws, to compel enforcement. vox.com/2024-elections…

"It’s men fearing women’s enthrallment to independence at the expense of their own centrality, and women fearing their subjugation to men at the expense of their lives." Beautiful @jiatolentino essay newyorker.com/magazine/dispa…
