In his new piece for the Atlantic, ⁦Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP’S FORMER FIXER)⁩ lays bare the moral rot of the American left, which, in its reflexive hatred of Jews, has betrayed its purported commitment to the universal right of women to live in safety and freedom. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Super interesting story, though it condenses the considerable space between skepticism of deep-blue school culture + very conservative Christian patriotism!

“However you opt to perceive it, an atmosphere that celebrates this image sets back decades of international legal advances recognizing the dignity and rights of women.”

TY to The Hill for asking me why Biden doesn't share more about his workouts

OTOH, sharing abt exercise is an easy way for presidents to look tough/disciplined... OTO ppl are so awful that the 'wrong' workout - too gentle, or unmanly - wld def backfire

Thank you Derek Beres for contextualizing this dubious shout out to my work in the new Free Press Health

The TIME headline misrepresented my work for clicks, and few ppl read the actual article (or my book!) before drawing their own even more extreme conclusions

Appreciate it!

“But the encampment Mr. Teo Gomez lived in with two other men stands in such disorienting proximity to an Elle Decor evocation of the Hamptons that you can see the side of a Shingle-style house through the bare trees.”

The reason ⁦Rep. Jamaal Bowman Ed.D.⁩ is trailing Latimer has less to do with AIPAC & more to do w/his failure to fully recognize the grief/trauma felt by his Jewish constituents.
