In my cover story for @Harpers, I crisscrossed the Great Plains to see how Dems and Independents are reviving the progressive populism that once defined the region. Believe it or not, but the Blue Wave looks poised to crash over Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa harpers.org/archive/2026/10/…

Boy this doesn’t seem kind
Replying to @BenMullin
Feel free to call for comment if you ever want the facts that I am able to share. Of course I wouldn’t comment on specific performance issues around a particular reporter but there are no layoffs.

Brutal yet impeccably fair.
We read @DylanByers piece on some recent goings-on at @wsj and decided it could benefit from the kind of fact-checking that we here at the Journal take very seriously. Fair and accurate, that's our style! Let's take a look: 🧵
