Why do some still support Trump?
Certain personality traits—associated with callousness, manipulation, enjoyment of others’ suffering—correlate with conservative ideology & Trump support. MAGAs score higher on measures of malevolent traits;lower on empathy/compassion

This is Trump’s f*cked-up economy, but don’t miss this point in the jobs report—if it hadn’t been for healthcare, we would’ve actually lost jobs every single month.

Email screenshot Sandra Ballentine 5:42 PM From Hank Stuever tl;dr I only ever wanted to work at The Washington Post, and boy, I got to. Two things, before I go: 1. Before you read, listen or click on anything else, please read, listen and click on the work of your colleagues. Deeply, thoughtfully, always. Talk about it. Examine it. Enjoy it. THEN go doomscroll the competition, not the other way around. Originality will always be the answer. 2. If you create something (words, clips, visuals) and you happen to think, you know who would really get a kick out of this? Hank Stuever. Then please send it to him!
Email screenshot: Sandra Ballentine 5:47 PM SB Staff News: Ann Hornaday Dim the lights. After 22 years, Ann Hornaday is stepping down as The Post's chief film critic. Ann is a proud native of Des Moines, lowa (home to her beloved Varsity Theatre), who just as proudly began her career at Ms. magazine as an assistant to Gloria Steinem. She went from freelancing for magazines and the New York Times to staff film critic positions at the Austin American-Statesman and the Baltimore Sun before joining The Post in 2002. In 2008, she was a Pulitzer finalist for criticism. Her first book, "Talking Pictures: How to Watch Movies," was published in 2017. More recently, she's delighted Post readers with a steady stream of memorable reviews, from the four-star heights of "Oppenheimer" to the .5-star lows of "Lisa Frankenstein." She's also regularly churned out an array of columns, appreciations, lists and profiles (see: Nate Parker, Bruce Springsteen, George Clooney), among so many other things.
Email screenshot: Matt Murray 5:48 PM Craig Timberg Dear All, I'm sad to share the news that Craig Timberg, a Deputy Managing Editor since 2023 and a longtime leader in the newsroom, has decided to take the buyout and move on to a new opportunity. Craig joined the Metro staff in 1998, first covering Virginia politics and government from Richmond and then writing about D.C. politics, the mayor and city council. He was Johannesburg bureau chief from 2004 to 2008, after which he co-authored a book, "Tinderbox: How the West Sparked the AIDS Epidemic and How the World Can Finally Overcome It." He returned to Washington and served stints as education editor and deputy national security editor. From 2012 to 2021 he was a technology reporter, and wrote award-winning stories on privacy, surveillance, cybersecurity and disinformation. His work on the role of social media and @Anon in the Jan. 6, 2021, attacks was part of the package that received the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service.
Email screenshot: Sandra Ballentine 4:39 PM SB Staff news: Joel Achenbach Joel Achenbach is retiring from The Post after 35 years as a staff writer, columnist, blogger, lede-all anchor and explainer of complicated stuff. Joel arrived in October 1990 as a feature writer in the Style section. He also wrote the weekly column "Why Things Are," answering questions like "Why doesn't a black hole somewhere get so big and powerful that it eventually goes sklurrp! and sucks the entire galaxy, including planet earth, into its dreadful maw?" and "Why is dryer lint gray if my clothes aren't gray?" The column was syndicated by the Washington Post Writers Group to more than 50 newspapers. In 1999, he started the traditional newsroom's first online column, "Rough Draft," for washingtonpost.com, and then became The Post's first blogger with "Achenblog" in 2005. That year he joined the Post Magazine, writing features and a weekly humor column. In 2007, he joined the National Desk and has since worked primarily for the health and science team. He has covered presidential campaigns, NASA space missions, mass shootings, hurricanes, the BP oil spill, America's
Four more WaPo departures: Hank Stuever, Ann Hornaday, Craig Timberg, Joel Achenbach. Source says it feels like the Hunger Games: “My inbox has literally dozens of announcements of departures or newsroom wide goodbye notes.”

Your reminder that the tipped minimum wage is $2.13 /hr, and has been since 1991.
When employers refuse to pay a living wage, their workers are forced to rely on taxpayer-funded social safety nets.
Those aren’t handouts to workers.
They’re handouts to companies.
Only an asshole would be a friend of Jeffrey Epstein and an enemy of Canada.

BREAKING via NYT: The Times found another admiring note Donald Trump wrote to Jeffrey Epstein.
“To Jeff — You are the greatest!” reads an inscription in a copy of Mr. Trump’s book “Trump: The Art of the Comeback” that belonged to Mr. Epstein. (link in reply)

It’s a love letter to Michigan where we invented the middle class. Protecting the middle class is and always will be my north star.

In our weekly Intel Briefing, we do another look at President Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" and what it means for kids in schools, the national debt and hidden provisions like:
1️⃣ A tax deduction for private jets
2️⃣ A tax hike on gambling losses
3️⃣ A Big PHARMA carve out

Evangelicals relentlessly talk about THE DEVIL and his temptation of human souls. Yet, when the embodiment of all they attribute Satan walks this earth, they elect him President and ignore all the tenets of their faith.
