I’ve gotten death threats from extremists for writing about extremists. Especially for mocking them. Maybe you shouldn’t take an oath to support and defend the constitution if you’re going to stop as soon an incel from Fort Wayne sends a misspelled email.

Congestion pricing in New York City is a month old. What are the results? Less crime as subway ridership up, less cars, less traffic, more people walking around, and increasing popularity. Here's a thread of recent stories about it.

I spent four years investigating these sorts of claims. Children aren’t being taught they’re inherently victims or oppressors. Teachers aren’t leading kids to change genders. Instead these claims are used as a pretext to sanitize history curricula and impose conservative Christian ideas in schools

Even when there are guardrails preventing government officials from firing people, there tend to be ways to make them quit through miserable assignments. This is sometimes called “freeway therapy” here in LA, where a county employee (say a deputy DA) can be sent two hours commute from home.

The Welsh told the Saxons this hill was called "pen" (meaning "hill"). The Saxons added their word for hill, "tor," and called it Torpen (hill hill). Later the Norse added their world for hill. So it became Torpen Haugr (Hill Hill Hill). Now the English call it Torpenhow Hill (Hill Hill Hill Hill)

I spent a decade on and off reporting on one of the executive orders that Trump revoked on Tuesday: Executive Order 11246, signed by LBJ in 1965. Because of that, I took a minute and wrote down some thoughts to explain just how awful this is — and how ahistorical Trump’s claims are.

Trump ends federal contractor civil rights order with roots that go back to FDR

In revoking Executive Order 11246, Trump took aim at history and efforts to combat discrimination. Also: Trump's effort to end birthright citizenship is blocked for now.
