Maryland Gov. Wes Moore is aware of the 2028 buzz around him. He says he’s unbothered.
“I think people have been watching us from the first day we put our hand on the Bible, and it hasn’t moved me,” he told me.

'In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek. His value was placed at $1400.
More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter, Keisha Lance Bottoms, was elected governor of GA' ajc.com/politics/2026/11/kei…

I know you might have heard some things about how the Washington Post got smaller. It was painful; you don't have to tell us.
But know what this election might remind you? The bench was reallllly deep. We're here swinging. So stay tuned for a ton of smart, deeply reported stuff I'll be posting. (And I'll also clap up @RickMaese who has been all over the Trump-golf-course saga and also raising our three kids solo.)

Earlier this year, we told the story of Tristan, a Baltimore 9 y/o who’d been missing for months. That story, which is one of gov. failure, had another part. Meet Denise Day, his great aunt, caretaker, and the person who helped him run and hide.

Trump’s Education Department has not made public all its civil rights investigations at schools and colleges.
So @propublica sued and obtained all the complaints and investigations. And now we are publishing them so you can search the cases too.

The first school shooting I wrote about happened 10 years and 17 days ago. First-graders on a playground. Shooter was 14. One child died. It faded from front pages by week's end.
Those kids and teachers, their families, that town. They're not over it. They'll never get over it.

NFL gear is very difficult to find in Brazil, especially the stuff beyond clothing.
When André Suman moved near Baltimore, he decided to start mailing tickets and stickers and cards home to share the experience with Brazilians.

.@AP’s @SeungMinKim: “[T]o put a finer point on it, though, how is this action legal and constitutional, considering the First Amendment? And Governor Sanders, you were White House press secretary. Do you agree with this plan to ban news outlets?”
Trump: “Well, I’ll just answer it again. I’ll say it the same way. I don’t think somebody should be allowed to come in and write fake stories. They’re fake news, and that’s why they have no credibility. That’s why. So, I had 96 percent negative coverage during the election. And I won because they have no credibility. I got 96 — I guess NBC was 93 percent negative. So, 93 — with all of the victories I’ve had, everything’s been a victory. It’s all been a victory. And I won the election like nobody’s ever seen anything like it. I get no — they never write a good story. They won’t write a story about. I just reduced drug prices by 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 percent. I won’t get a good story out of these people. From some of them, I will. I’ll get one from him. I’ll get one from him. I’ll get a few of them. But it’s sick. I mean, there’s something wrong with a country that can allow people to write purposely negative stories. Now, if they want to write them, that’s fine, but I don’t have to — let them into my — into the people’s house.”

It's very rare for Jets fans to see a QB performance as clean as what Geno Smith delivered today
It was just the 8th game in Jet history of:
- 200+ pass yards
- 75%+ comp

- 0 INT
He joins:
- Ken O'Brien (3x)
- Chad Pennington (2x)

Never read this before or anything like it. Incredible and heartbreaking journalism
Sharing a gift link to the New York Times' devastating minute by minute report of the World Trade Center's last 102 minutes, based on the hundreds of last calls and emails people made.
Never forget.

After listening to the mesmerizing Dolly Parton’s America (one of the best podcasts ever created!) by @JadAbumrad many, many times, I came to admire Dolly Parton and her life and talents so much. Light of a Clear Blue Morning on repeat this afternoon. RIP to the legend.
