Must-read from @mattbai
Presidents don’t actually create the economies that attach to their names.
…a least that’s how it was before Trump’s second term, during which the president has created his very own economic hellscape

Always read @mattbai: "Trump is the only president in our lifetimes to be placed at the helm of a fundamentally seaworthy economy and immediately chart a course for the nearest field of icebergs."

It’s Been 25 Years Since 9/11. Did the Terrorists Win?
We are more divided, the world is less secure, and many of our bedrock principles and ideals are eroding.

"We’ve seen enough of Trump’s second term now to understand that the goal here isn’t really free expression or equal opportunity," writes @mattbai.
"The goal is, and has always been, sheer repression."

Rahm Emanuel might not have the kind of Instagram celebrity you need to become a hot candidate in the modern party.
But while other non-Socialist contenders look for ways to appeal to as many voters as possible, he’s the only one who seems determined to articulate a concrete, combative alternative to fashionable leftism, writes @mattbai.

Rahm Emanuel knows you think he’s out of step with the times and quite possibly delusional.
Guess what? He really doesn’t give a shit.

Rahm Emanuel: ‘You Don’t Like My Ideas? Show Me Yours’
The always pugnacious Democrat is ready to fight Republicans, the DSA, and Bibi Netanyahu. And maybe run for president.
