“Lewis could’ve scored ten podiums, and that first podium would’ve been equally as good. I promise there’s nothing — nothing — about Ferrari, nothing about Lewis that makes that podium any better than what it is.” — Carlos Sainz to @foster.bsky.social in @essesmag.com Issue 05 📸 Bilal Zagaoui

Kash Patel’s girlfriend is exactly the sort of country singer you’d think she’d be. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/28/u...

Ms. Wilkins, the daughter of a financial specialist in the aerospace industry (her mother) and a global consumer products executive for Gillette (her father), had lived in London and Switzerland, and for a time attended elementary school at Collège du Léman in Geneva. She is originally from the Boston suburb of Weymouth, but likes to emphasize her time living in Arkansas.
"There are just some things the limousine liberal will never understand from the coasts," she recently wrote.

Brendan Carr thinks the future of media is an “EPIC Pass for journalism.” Of note: The Epic pass is a massive failure and skiers hate it.

Brendan Carr just said he can see himself suing a network at some point, and thinks it’s likely. Ben: Which one? Brendan Carr: (Shrugs). Countdown to the Kalshi spread.

Brendan Carr just ranted at Ben for three minutes straight about Colin Kapernick, the Olympics, Terry Moran, as Ben tried to get a question in. Ben Smith (as Carr continues to rant): “This is just…Twitter.”

Ben Smith is now interviewing Brendan Carr, who came out to a smattering of lazy applause. Opens by comparing this to festivus, from Seinfeld, wherein he gets to air his grievances to a bunch of journalists. Took him two minutes to say the words “New York” and “Hollywood.” Cool.

The untold story of what Rony Seikaly did for Magic Johnson, behind closed doors, is incredible. And the reason why Seikaly decided to do it — which he discusses on PTFO, with @foster.bsky.social, for the first time — is even more powerful. Especially today: youtu.be/xdZvVMgSzTw?...

From my perspective, Woodworking has done far more to get readers to understand trans people than all of the journalism I did on the topic. But "getting someone to empathize" is a different thing from "explaining the facts of a situation," and one fiction is uniquely calibrated to do well.

There was an NY Mag piece from early in the pandemic about how badly a Covid-19 infection could turn out, which was way more effective in getting me to lock down, wear masks, etc., because of how my brain works. But that was clearly labeled as an invented scenario, based on a lot of research.

If Elizabeth Bruenig weren’t Elizabeth Bruenig but instead were Michael Pollan or Ed Yong, the reaction to her Atlantic story would be vastly different. It’s a unique take on a well-established narrative that could cut across lines reported stories don’t reach. Also, you all gotta chill.

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

SHOCKING FEDERAL COURT MOMENT: DOJ attorney Julie Le, "The system sucks, this job sucks" to Judge Jerry Blackwell who pressed her on why so many court orders are being ignored by ICE/Trump admin. She asked to be held in contempt just so she could get 24 hours of sleep. @FOX9

The US has transformed from a (sorta) functioning democracy into a poster regime, a rogue troll state, fueled by internet clout. And the abduction of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro is likely just the beginning. www.garbageday.email/p/the-rise-o...

Maduro’s arrest is connected to a new kind of politics I’ve spent the last year struggling to describe. A profoundly embarrassing collision of violent nationalism, illiterate social chatter, and memetic fascism that’s been spreading across the globe since the pandemic. We’ve seen hints for years now that the elites of the world are just as addicted to — and dependent on — the same social platforms that we are. Ignoring the near-constant public embarrassments of our shitposter ruling class that play out on platforms like X every day, our leaders are also digitally networking with each other behind closed doors. There’s Chatham House, the group chat that fried the minds of Silicon Valley’s most reactionary CEOs like Marc Andreessen, that’s been running since COVID started. Which is adjacent to the text message network of powerful men that convinced Elon Musk to buy Twitter in 2022. Last year, the Trump administration was caught planning out airstrikes in a Signal group. And days before the campaign in Venezuela, Republican operatives secretly teamed up with a far-right YouTuber to storm daycares in Minnesota. You take all of that and throw in last year’s Discord-based election in Nepal, the international white nationalist incel terror cells spreading across Telegram, and the fact Charlie Kirk’s killer allegedly carried out the attack for the members of his Discord channel and the picture couldn’t be clearer: Politics — and political violence — is now something performed, first and foremost, for an online audience. It almost doesn’t matter what happens irl if it makes noise online.

A month ago, NYT columnist David Brooks wrote a column decrying the media and political fixation on the Epstein story. This afternoon, House Democrats released a new tranche of photos of an event that Brooks attended with Epstein.
