I thought I can finish my calendar last week. Alas, there's still some work to do. In the meantime, painting is not the same as design work. But I love this so much! Will have to sell it as a painting #WorldWatercolorMonth2025 #mypaintinglife

1/ Important: "Epstein was actually still on the Mar-a-Lago membership logs up to 2007. ... That of course is a year after Jeffrey Epstein's arrest in Florida." So Trump didn't kick him out for many years after knowing Epstein 'stole' Virginia Giuffre from MAL in 2000. 🧵

Striking stuff from Paul Krugman, who dismantles Trump's Europe deal from top to bottom. It will actually undermine US manufacturing, the "concessions" he won are fake, and Trump voters will be hit hard by the tariffs. All on the pod. Don't miss this one: newrepublic.com/article/198577…

After 14 very, very happy years writing opinions on media at the Washington Post, I am taking the newspaper's buyout offer. In September, I will begin work at the New York Times covering media from Washington for the paper's Business section.

Let Me Be Blunt: It’s way too expensive to rent or buy a home in this country—this week, we finally took action. The Banking Committee passed a major package of legislation to fast track new construction and give millions a place to call home. Next stop: Senate floor.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is disgusted to learn that trump said Epstein was a "terrific guy...who likes women on the younger side" two years AFTER he'd "stolen" 16-year-old Virginia Giuffre from Mar-a-Lago. trump KNEW, and like Gym Jordan, he said nothing.

ā€œIt was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been ā€˜stolen’ from Mar-a-Lago. It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal actions." Story: rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
