My take away remains that a lot of people invested in politics have near zero concept of organizational sociology or power dynamics

This is really good and honest. It’s a terribly confusing situation, one of the only things we can really know for sure is that Dems lacing into Dems for some blurry greater good are probably not helping anything.

WBD's stock price has tanked ~78% since David Zaslav was announced as CEO— $32.68 on 05/19/21 to $7.32, today— to say nothing of the brand loyalty, goodwill, & creative talent he's destroyed. It is amazing & genuinely horrifying that anyone could fail this badly, & remain in a position of authority

As noted, we’ve been telegraphing this hard but I am still deeply doubtful that trying to jam another CT base and mission in a fractious Francophone African country is going to work *this* time.

It took 50 years for the Dept of Labor to update its federal standard to better protect coal miners from the deadly silica dust that’s driving an epidemic of black lung across Appalachia.
Now, the Republicans are trying to kill it: t.co/lTtAzS5Vq4

I can say from my conversations with upper management at nyt they don't have any sense of history or what they're risking. It's what you expect from an institution run by people who've rarely experienced real consequences

Setting aside the Biden out or in stuff, CNN dispatching someone to do an on the ground story at the AKA convention is A+. No notes.

CNN reporter Eva McKend spent the day at the Alpha Kappa Alpha convention in Dallas, where VP Kamala Harris spoke, and was hard-pressed to find a single Black voter, even among Harris mega-fans, who thought it was a good idea to push President Biden off the ticket. 🧵: x.com/evamckend/st...

The many manifestations of racism — slavery, segregation, etc — were an integral part of not just African American history, but American history. Denying that reality and pretending racism wasn’t a serious problem is, in itself, racist.

Reagan was, at the time, the oldest president ever in his second term. He had hearing aids, colorectal cancer, skin cancer, Alzheimer's. And yet the right wingers around him pushed through a lot of their (abhorrent) priorities - tax cuts, Supremes, etc. - and still view him as their GOAT. 🤷♂️
