@mattyglesias Rini! Rini!

I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.

I’m Kid Rock.” “I’m Naomi Wolf.” “I’m Kanye West.” “I’m Matt Taibbi.” “I’m Catturd. Those stories, plus Rob Schneider, tonight on 60 Minutes.”

The real problem for Bari isn’t what Pelley said, or even that she had to fire him. It’s that everyone applauded him for saying it and then the exchange leaked to every media reporter instantly. That will keep happening because she does not have and will never have their respect.

NEW: Bari Weiss just addressed the termination of Scott Pelley on the network's morning call just now. Weiss: "I know I speak for myself, and I hope I speak for everyone here when I say that I'm only interested in working in a newsroom that is built on trust and mutual respect.

I think it’s a crisis that kids are growing up with no knowledge of Robin Hood & Merlin, Charlotte and Babar, Ratty and Badger and Long John Silver. In the words of Katherine Rundell, “We need to be infinitely more furious that there are children without books.”

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.

I still don't understand how I was ever able to get up at the crack of dawn, be at school by 7:30, study seven different subjects, speak a foreign language for a bit, get 45 minutes of exercise, play a musical instrument, deal with school drama, maybe play a sport, get home and study some more before I went to bed, and all of it without a single drop of coffee. Like seriously who was that person.

I often get asked about my Day 1 fix and it’s DC911. It’s the most important Fix the Basics issue because it is life or death. In a life threatening moment you should not have to worry about your 911 dispatcher sending EMS or the police to the wrong location. Thank you to @STATter911 for his tireless work documenting these failures.

I absolutely get the concern for the dogs that died during the District Dogs flood almost three years ago, but what about us humans? No council member has publicly expressed outrage, and there has been no news coverage about 38 DC911 mistakes over the last six months. At least
