Trump and Obama take to the trail. "Watching them both on Wednesday night, toggling between screens and alternate universes as they shot barbs at each other, was a reminder of how very long we’ve been stuck in this loop," writes @sbg1 newyorker.com/news/letter-fr…
A grim mood has set in around the White House, which has been rocked by turnover, tension among internal factions and anxiety over what happens should Republicans lose legislative control in Washington, reports @katierogers nytimes.com/2026/10/28/us/po…
RIP Patrick Stewart, the master Shakespearean actor who after a mid career pivot became a screen icon as Star Trek's Picard and the X-Men's Professor X. He brought class, erudition and wit to everything he did. nytimes.com/2026/10/29/arts/…

After a period of lackluster growth, the economy picks up steam, expanding by 3.4% in the third quarter, the fastest pace in a year. Strong spending and growth contrast with the poor marks many voters are giving the economy. @bencasselman nytimes.com/2026/10/29/busin…
Peltola camp has denied involvement in the other Sullivan's campaign. But interviews, text messages and documents show that not only did her team work with people trying to recruit Sullivan to run for Senate, the effort was much broader. @Kellen_Browning nytimes.com/2026/10/28/us/po…
The Biden administration called it Putin's "slush fund." Now the Trump administration is considering lifting sanctions on Russia's government investment fund, the latest unilateral concession to Moscow with no reciprocal action. @antontroian nytimes.com/2026/10/27/us/po…

Before publishing a tough book about Trump, Bob Woodward called Bezos to warn him. “Don’t worry, I have your back, Bob,” Bezos said. “I’ll always have your back.” Always turned out not to be as long as it used to be. Takeaways from Woodward's new memoir. nytimes.com/2026/10/26/us/po…
