    Joaquin Phoenix’s BAFTA speech called out the awards for its historical whiteness — and himself and the industry for complicity with systemic racism, saying it was on white people to dismantle that system from which they benefit. He is correct, of course.

    This is one of the more poignant and elegant moments that I’ve seen from a politician of late. is correct—everything is political, especially hair. Pressley didn’t have to reveal her alopecia, but she shows here why it matters that she did.

    Well, it's on then. (I have nothing against CATS.)

  8. You all should watch Trump deliver the Dingell insult, even it angers you. Why? For his insane delivery, sure—but also the laughter. A reminder that the problem of Trump is so much larger than him. Impeachment won’t rid us of it. Not one election, either.

  9. The Schiff argument — that waiting to impeach amounts to saying, “Why don’t you just let him cheat in one more election?” — is a sound if quixotic one. He’ll still cheat, as will Republicans. This may help ensure that there will even be an election at all.

  10. Calling “well spoken” isn’t even the worst part of this. When asks about those who lament the lack of racial diversity amongst Dem candidates, he essentially says, just run! As a man worth more than $50 billion might.

  11. Fred Hampton was a genius, cut down at 21. And for what? Someone else’s pathology. I’ll paraphrase John Kerry’s 1971 question about Vietnam: How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for racism? Some thoughts on Dana Chandler’s “Fred Hampton’s Door.”

  12. This interview is too goddamned much, even for a Republican like him cosplaying as a Democrat. Gives a pass to China’s dictator and coal pollution—and at the end, snarks about the alleged naïveté of millennials, many of whom are nearing 40.

  13. Watch school folks on plutocracy. Bret Stephens maintains his rep as America’s laziest thinker, equating criticism of Bloomberg with Trumpian bigotry and willfully ignoring how the former mayor benefits from a system he hasn’t tried to change.

  14. Rudolph’s attorney went there, saying Garrett’s accusation is “an assault on Mason's integrity which is far worse than the physical assault witnessed.” Being accused of uttering a racial slur is worse than getting hit in the head with your own helmet by this man? I call bullshit.

  15. This take on marijuana took a DeLorean from the 1980s — or a GOP platform. "There's not nearly been enough evidence" that marijuana isn't a "gateway drug"? Utterly false. Being for state-only legalization is being for state-only criminalization.

  17. Meghan Markle’s interview shouldn’t just be a reality check for those of us working in the press. We all should be asking those whom we care about, even if we consider them to be privileged, whether they’re okay.

  18. I contributed an essay—my first original piece of writing in book form, actually—to BELIEVE ME: HOW TRUSTING WOMEN CAN CHANGE THE WORLD, the new anthology edited by and . I’m beyond honored to included. Pre-order it now:
