- For the NYT Magazine’s The Lives They Lived issue, I wrote about Michael Protzman, the QAnon personality who led dozens of followers to Dallas to await the return of JFK: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
- “Fare thee well, gone away, there’s nothing left to say.”
- Thanks to recent redistricting, Rashida Tlaib now represents the Detroit area’s most pro-Palestinian constituency, but also some of its most pro-Israel communities. My dispatch from the very polarized suburbs of the 12th District: www.nytimes.com/2023/11/13/u...
- I spent last week driving back and forth across Colorado’s beautiful and absurdly large 3rd District, where an increasingly crowded contest for Lauren Boebert’s seat is under way a year out from the 2024 election: www.nytimes.com/2023/11/04/u...
- Nikki Haley arrived at the UN in 2017 with little record on Israel, and emerged two years later as such a vociferous defender that a joke around Turtle Bay held that Israel had two ambassadors. My dive into that history, and its newfound importance: www.nytimes.com/2023/10/15/u...
- An important point Ralph Reed made to me: evangelicals, now the center of gravity of Republican Israel support, have never particularly wanted the US to look after Palestinian interests in the conflict. Trump was the first president to act accordingly. nytimes.com/2023/10/15/us/…
