How Will Biden Pass the Baton at the Democratic Convention? I helped write Bill Clinton’s 2000 convention speech for Al Gore. Here’s how the president can make his ode to Harris sing by @Glastris in the @Monthly. washingtonmonthly.com/2024/08/16/how…

Last night, Joe Biden became the 4th president to speak at a party convention where his VP was the nominee. Michael Smerconish and I discussed that history and my role in helping write the 3rd such speech for Bill Clinton in 2000. Washington Monthly

5 PM East The Julie Mason Show welcomes Paul @glastris.bsky.social Glastris on his Washington Monthly and tonight’s speech from former President Clinton.

To truly fulfill the promise of #HigherEd, we must focus on value and better recognize the institutions that genuinely improve their students' lives. We applaud Washington Monthly for focusing on student success in their annual college rankings! washingtonmonthly.com/2024/08/25/our…

The great Steve Scully and I talked about the new college rankings released by Washington Monthly and how they show that elite colleges don’t have a monopoly on excellence, and are sometimes rip offs. siriusxm.com/clips/clip/f68…

As governor and (if it happens) vice president, Tim Walz could go down in history as the guy who killed the electoral college. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact needs to pass in just a few more states, and Kapow! washingtonmonthly.com/2024/08/30/tim… Washington Monthly David Edward Burke

Four times as many U.S. troops died in combat during Donald Trump’s presidency than during the Biden-Harris administration, according to an analysis of DoD data by ⁦Washington Monthly⁩ washingtonmonthly.com/2024/09/03/wor…

Stop Calling Kamala Harris’s Anti-Price-Gouging Proposal Price Controls, writes Zephyr Teachout in the Washington @Monthly. Her plan to control inflation is not some leftist plot. It’s rooted in mainstream American legal tradition—and sorely needed. washingtonmonthly.com/2024/09/09/sto…

I think constantly about the time Eric Adams said the best concert he ever attended was the one where Curtis Mayfield was permanently paralyzed by falling light equipment

It’s not just disaster aid. This is a pattern with Trump. As Will Norris Washington Monthly reported this summer, Trump’s administration similarly enforced antitrust policy in a discriminatory way to punish its enemies and reward its friends. /2 washingtonmonthly.com/2024/04/07/tru…

“While the concept of an educational realignment pitting liberal elite college grads against high school-educated conservatives captures a real and important phenomenon, it also glosses over a complex reality.” via Paul @glastris.bsky.social Glastris politico.com/news/magazine/…

Which candidates represent the educated elite? Harris, Walz, and their spouses all attended regional public universities, while Trump and Vance are the first all-Ivy League GOP ticket in U.S history, I noted on Washington Journal this morning. /1 Washington Monthly

Boom. Eric Cortellessa TIME reports that as MD governor, Larry Hogan, current GOP senate candidate, approved $16 million in state subsidies to a property his real estate firm represented and his family owned. /1. time.com/7094238/larry-… Washington Monthly

Elaborating on this point for a second, I want to recommend Paul @glastris.bsky.social Glastris and Zach Marcus's writing on non-flagship state schools, which are both relatively under-resourced and tend to not to figure much in the campus culture wars -- for instructive reasons. washingtonmonthly.com/2024/08/25/tho…

Two thoughts on the ongoing dumpster fire consuming Jeff Bezos and the Washington Post. First, Bezos should follow the advice of Washington Monthly contributing editor Steven Waldman and turn the paper into a 501(c)3 charity /1 cjr.org/opinion/waldma…

Trump Isn't Even Pretending He Would Fight Corporate Power. The former president is shamelessly offering plutocrats like Elon Musk political favors for their support—and no longer promising to take on monopolists. Will Norris explains. washingtonmonthly.com/2024/11/01/tru…

Bobby Kennedy Jr., We Know Ye Too Well. If you’re Catholic, of a certain age, and grew up inspired by the Kennedys, Margaret Carlson explains, watching a delusional Robert F. Kennedy Jr. join the Trump administration is the final blow. washingtonmonthly.com/2024/11/22/bob…

I’m happy to share that I’m joining Bloomberg as an editor with the Bloomberg Explains team, where I’ll be assigning and editing news explainers. Forever grateful to Washington Monthly for two incredible years.

Feds and Red State govs impinging on Blue towns and cities. Biden tried to push back on this, awarding more money to municipalities. Will Norris explained before he left @Monthly for Bloomberg washingtonmonthly.com/2023/04/04/how…

It took some presidential arm-twisting, but the House finally passed a huge bill that includes an extension of Trump’s first-term tax cuts. Will Norris explains who will benefit the most bloom.bg/3Z0V5TX
