    He’s a private businessman, right? So why should the acting White House chief of staff get a heads up?

    Trump’s chief of staff blindsided by GOP-led Senate Intelligence Cmte subpoena for Don Jr to appear. Mick Mulvaney tells : “To subpoena the president of the United States’ son and not at least get a heads up I thought was, let’s say, bad form.”

    Given the Times report on Trump's staggering losses, I'd be fine if Random House simply took the book out of print. Or recategorized it as fiction.

    Breathe easy, fellow Americans. He won't be an HRH, but it says he'll be styled Earl of Dumbarton, which is just peachy. We'll take it. (I'll simply note that "Earl" would have been a better name than "Archie"—for more than one reason—but that's another story for another time...)

    He will not have a royal title like his cousins, the Cambridges children, but will be known simply as Master Archie

    Yes, exactly, finally, thank you. Was starting to feel like *I* was the one tripping.

    "Archibald" definitely wouldn't have been my pick, but I could have rolled with it. But I'm not a fan of making nicknames names.

    (I think Archie is a really cute name am I alone?)

    That's a nice tribute. I never met Robert Pear, but I've only heard great things about him this past week from people who did.

    Sweet, sad gesture from New York Times Washington bureau: Out of respect for our legendary healthcare reporter Robert Pear, who died last night, the newspaper is retiring the story slug HEALTH, "because it can only be by Pear."

    I keep seeing speculation about the name "Alexander Spencer" for the royal son. A lovely name, a lovely sentiment. But once you add "Sussex" into the mix, the kid's monogram isn't looking too great.

    My latest for : Instead of asking Alex Cora and the other athletes of color on team why they aren’t going to the White House on Thursday, why not ask the white players why none of them showed any solidarity with their teammates?

    NEW from me: Why is Joe Biden ahead? Is that support going to last? What's changed from his last presidential run? Almost every question can tie back to the group that may hold Biden's candidacy in their hands: older black voters. My report from SC

    "Conservatives sometimes accuse the academic left of ignoring the good in U.S. history and emphasizing the horrors. But in some respects, the typical telling of the American story does not focus enough on the horrors," writes.
