In the aftermath of the Rust shooting, Alec Baldwin starred in a trashy reality series and a serious documentary, both intended to reveal the "real" Bladwin. They're very odd viewing experiences. I wrote about them for @avclub.com. www.avclub.com/the-trial-of...

Trashy TV and a serious documentary struggle to make entertainment out of Alec Baldwin's Rust trauma

Despite their formal differences, doc The Trial Of Alec Baldwin and reality show The Baldwins have the same arrogant aim.

Hegseth is aspirational for some white people. He's proof that mediocrity is rewarded if you are a white man. You can always fail up. That's his appeal and make no mistake, the appeal is real.

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...

But there’s also something about truth to pain. We talk a lot about truth to power, but I think it’s actually a lot harder to speak truth to pain. I say that as someone who went to medical school, realizing that in a lot of our politics right now, we’ve got to get a lot better at speaking truth to pain if we’re going to get through some of these challenges that we have.

What does “truth to pain” mean?

It’s one thing to look power in the eye and say: You’re wrong about this. But there’s a way in which pain is very difficult to reason with. Because when somebody is in their pain, they’re in their trauma. They see that pain, and they may not see what’s causing it.

I remember just very explicitly being in a trauma ward with a gunshot wound patient and watching this big guy with his hand on his gunshot wound. All the folks are trying to pull his hand off his pain, that point of his gunshot wound, this clear vulnerability.

And this emergency room doctor had the presence of mind to be like: Everyone, stop. And she looks him in the eyes, and she’s like: I get that really hurts, and I’m so sorry that you’re here. You don’t want to be here. We don’t want you to be here. But if you don’t let us fix this, you could die. So I’m going to take your hand, and I’m going to move it off, OK? Because I need to get there so that you can live.

She was speaking truth to pain. He understands he’s at the hospital, he needs care, but he also doesn’t want anybody to touch the wound. Which is a natural thing. And I think it is a really great metaphor for how we think about a lot of these challenges we talked about today.

Best moments of the Schmitt/Smith/Klobuchar exchange, ranked: 5. Klobuchar: "We have the Gophers." 4. Klobuchar: "You got the teams wrong, sir." 3. Smith: "It's possible I flew through the Atlanta airport." 2. Klobuchar: "Hmm." 1. Schmitt: "I don't think you know that we have this stuff."

I heard through the grapevine that Sen. Eric Schmitt has 18 staffers on his legislative team: 17 men and one woman. The woman on his staff deals exclusively with foreign policy, which means today's disaster during the hearing was all by conservative men who don't know sports.

It is also important to note that Cornell doesn't have a journalism major. These are students who may not even plan to make journalism a career, but their dedication to the field is tremendous.

A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

No. Federal appropriations law has long barred using taxpayer funds for political advertising.

Campus rape is really widespread; statistics suggest a significant percent of women who go to college will be raped there; feminism opened up a good conversation about it around 2012-13; it's weird when people treated Cornell like an isolated rather than dramatic example of a pervasive problem.

The thing about Aaron Sorkin is I don’t think he’s without talent he just needs to be paired with a director who is a bigger name that can take or leave what he writes and edit out the stuff that you roll your eyes at, lots of talented writers are like that. Stephen King adaptations are like that.
