Trump has granted clemency to more than 70 people convicted in fraud cases. At the same time, he says he is waging a "war on fraud." Those granted clemency included allies & donors. Those targeted in the "war on fraud" include Somali & other immigrants. nytimes.com/2026/03/19/us/po…

White House stands by State Department nominee who complains that "white Americans are increasingly second-class citizens," warns of "white erasure" and says "the Jews love to see themselves as oppressed." @CAMcGrady nytimes.com/2026/02/13/us/po…

I deeply identify with this from @AshleyRParker. If you were a kid growing up in the DC area of the 80s and 90s, the Post WAS your hometown. And if you got hooked on journalism, it was very likley because of Style.

For us sports fans of a certain age, the sports section of the newspaper taught us how to read. I didn’t grow up with the Washington Post sports section, but I did grow up because of it. Today’s a sad day for my friends and for all of us.

"Everybody’s afraid," said Oklahoma City's Republican mayor, David Holt. "Let’s get back to an era of immigration enforcement that is manageable, legal and acceptable to a majority of Americans." @CAMcGrady talks to the mayors. nytimes.com/2026/01/30/us/us…

"Stephen," Trump said, during a contentious debate about immigration, "if you had it your way, everyone would look exactly like you." “That’s correct,” Miller said, before turning back to continue sparring. theatlantic.com/politics/202…

SCOOP: Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s pick to lead the Office of Special Counsel, told a group of Republicans in a text chain the MLK Jr. holiday should be “tossed into the seventh circle of hell” and said he has “a Nazi streak,” according to a text chat I saw. politico.com/news/2025/10/20…

Good column here. And I want to add one twist, of sorts: Bowser should understand where Mendelson is coming from, since she was once there herself. Back when she was a Ward 4 councilmember she played a critical role in changing the Audi Field stadium deal, after all.
My column this week: Phil Mendelson is the man who could kill the Commanders stadium deal. He voted against the Nationals ballpark deal five times. As D.C. Council chairman, he is saying things that appeal to both sides — giving stadium supporters and naysayers hope...

Black history sites around the country are living with the uncertainty of Trump's order to combat "improper ideology," but their experiences so far show how hard it will be to put historical knowledge back in the bottle. From @CAMcGrady nytimes.com/2025/05/06/us/po…
