Exclusive: Will MacAskill and other EA leaders had been personally and repeatedly warned about SBF's sketchy business ethics as early as 2018.
They apparently dismissed those concerns, and went on to accept tens of millions in donations from FTX.

Grossberg says this list was constantly evolving, and people came on and off the banned list (which is why many of these people have in fact appeared on Fox News.)
But interesting that they were (temporarily) banned at all

Grossberg says that when she worked at Fox News, there was a constantly-changing list of guests who were "banned" from Fox.
The Banned List included, at various points: Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro, Jenna Ellis, Kari Lake, and Trump himself

It's time for Sen. Feinstein to resign - she just can't do the job Californians elected her to do.

This excellent analysis comes closest to what I saw when I spoke to Tucker extensively for my profile— Tuckerism isn’t an ideology, it’s a posture, It’s not a political identity, it’s a contrarian reflex. And it’s extremely appealing to young conservatives

When I speak about the rise in depression among Gen Z teens and young adults, I'm often asked if the trend extends to Millennials & up. This post, with graphs from *Generations* as well as some new analysis, answers that question. What's not as clear: Why? Your thoughts welcome.

I'm honored to have a guest post from @jean_twenge today on the After Babel Substack. Jean shows how the millennial generation's mental health has declined too, though not as much as for Gen Z:

When Tucker went on the record with me for a profile a few months ago, he seemed obsessed with the idea of elites who want to "tell you what to say," a paranoia which seems newly important given the revelations in the Dominion trial. Read it here:

Hello! this is the correct take! These are two sudden cable news departures that have almost nothing to do with each other
Quote Tweet
To be clear: Fox News did not know that CNN was terminating Don Lemon today and CNN did not know that Fox was ousting Tucker Carlson. This was a complete and crazy coincidence.

NEW: Tucker Carlson was informed *on Monday morning* by Fox News that he was gone from the network, per two sources briefed.
Not the first time a Fox anchor has abruptly lost their gig, but still notable given Carlson's stature at the network.

Gerontocracy vs Democracy

New Feinstein wrinkle.
Democratic aide says the Judiciary Committee can’t issue a subpoena as part of a Clarence Thomas inquiry; that would require a majority on the panel and Democrats don’t have it without her.
“So that option is out of the question.”

Super interesting piece by : millennials have actually made a massive financial comeback from their broke years right after the financial crisis. What if the American dream is still alive, but no one believes it to be?

Anyway... given all the news about young voters in Wisconsin and elsewhere, I'm seeing new chatter about how voters are always liberal when they're young but get more conservative as they age... but this is false! and my book explains why

Instead, over the last 5 years young voters seem to have settled into a calculation of "I don't love the D party for XYZ reason, but I absolutely cannot vote for a R."
This is hardly great news for the Dems. But it's catastrophic for Republicans.

Young ppl are fleeing partisanship in general. Look at the slow uptick in Independent ID.
But even if young voters are less likely to ID as Dems, every election and poll since 2016 has told us they are absolutely not *voting for Republicans.*
Quote Tweet
Are young people fleeing the Republican party? I just don't see much of that in this data.
Instead, I see the opposite.
In 2008, 83% of young Black Protestants were Democrats. That's down to 63%.
Noticeable drops among non-White Catholics and evangelicals. Muslims, too.
