Donald Trump has been deplatformed and defenestrated, but he's nowhere close to being gone. The same goes for the people who made up his administration.

Insider's project tracked down 327 of the most prominent Trump administration alumni here. 👇 businessinsider.com/trump-white-ho…
At least 99 alumni have establishment ties with prominent lobbying shops, law firms, think tanks, big business or corporate America.

But, as our project shows, not all corporations are willing to employ all former alumni. businessinsider.com/trump-alumni-m…
At least 21 former Trump alumni have been building something new, including Nikki Haley, Stephen Miller, and Jared Kushner. businessinsider.com/trump-white-ho…
We found 43 Trump White House alumni still working in politics, including Mike Pence, Mark Meadows, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders. businessinsider.com/trump-white-ho…
At least 42 alumni are still serving in government, from Congress to the states and federal agencies, including Rep. Ronny Jackson, Louis DeJoy, and Judd Deere.

Alumni embedded in the Capitol Hill establishment are working to keep the MAGA flame alive. businessinsider.com/trump-administ…
At least 13 have launched media careers, from writing books to hosting TV shows, including Kayleigh McEnany, Steve Bannon, and Sebastian Gorka. businessinsider.com/trump-white-ho…
Six Trump White House alumni now have anti-Trump personas, including James Comey, John Bolton, and Omarosa Manigault Newman. businessinsider.com/trump-white-ho…
At least 18 are in lower-profile jobs with academia, nonprofits, or charity, including Alex Azar, Ken Cuccinelli, and Matt Whitaker. businessinsider.com/trump-white-ho…
Meanwhile, around 85 alumni are lying low in positions that cannot be determined.

On the other hand, we also tracked down six of the most controversial Trump cabinet members now living their best lives. businessinsider.com/trump-cabinet-…
Trump's team is no longer running the country, but many hold prominent jobs while they await the outcome of the next presidential election.

Americans are divided, politically and socially.

The conventional wisdom blames social media for the widening divide as the timing lines up. But scientifically, it's been surprisingly hard to make the charges stick, Adam Rogers (@jetjocko) writes. ⬇️

Now there's a new hypothesis.

Maybe the problem isn't that social media has driven us all into like-minded bubbles. Maybe it's that social media has obliterated the bubbles we've all lived in for centuries, Rogers says.

businessinsider.com/social-media-t…
According to a model developed by Petter Törnberg, a computer scientist at @UvA_Amsterdam, social media twists our psyches and clumps us into warring tribes for two simple reasons.

We sort ourselves into two camps with sharply drawn lines, Roger writes.

Rebecca Hessel Cohen's tunnel vision — a world of parties and parasols, confetti and Champagne — is what turned LoveShackFancy into the success it is today.

But as it grew to a bona fide fashion empire, its founder’s blind spots turned glaring. 👇

LoveShackFancy has cemented its place as a must-have for prep schoolers and Southern sorority sisters.

In the past few years, the brand has exploded. There's something about it that seems to inspire an all-consuming passion in its shoppers.

businessinsider.com/loveshackfancy…
LoveShackFancy has never needed to be anything other than exactly what it is: pretty, pink clothes for skinny, rich girls who want to have fun, no matter what's happening in the world around them. Which is, of course, a statement in itself.

In 1977, a 15-year-old Kevin Baugh watched "The Mouse That Roared" — a satirical 1959 movie about a tiny, fictional nation waging war on the US.

He is now the "benevolent dictator" of the Republic of @Molossia — a one-acre micronation in Nevada. ⬇️

insider.com/photos-meet-di… The headline text on the graphic reads: "Meet President
"I was struck by the imagination and creativity of that," said the 60-year-old, who asked to be referred to as "Your Excellency" or "President Baugh," during a phone interview with @thisisinsider.

insider.com/photos-meet-di… The caption text on the graphic reads: "'President' Kev
Baugh continued researching micronations online, finding information on how he could fully realize one of his own.

The United States' elected leaders are the oldest they've ever been.

Insider journalists have spent months interviewing hundreds of sources and analyzing data to understand how the US arrived at this moment.

Here are the highlights and key findings. 🗝👇
businessinsider.com/gerontocracy-r…
🗝 Nearly one in four members of Congress are in their 70s or 80s — a level never before seen in US history.

🇺🇸 Almost 50% of Americans are under 40, but only about 5% of members of Congress are.

businessinsider.com/gerontocracy-u…
🗝 One of the most powerful legislators in modern US history acknowledged to @leonardkl that President Ronald Reagan, while conducting a meeting at the White House, once seemingly forgot who he was. 🧠

What's the hardest college in America to get into?

You're probably thinking it's @Harvard, which admitted just 3% of applicants this year, but you're wrong. It’s @Tulane, whose official acceptance rate is 0.7%.

@James_S_Murphy explains why. ⬇️

businessinsider.com/early-decision…
How did Tulane do it? Through the power of "early decision," which it first started offering for the freshman class of 2017.

The process is to look at their freshman class and hence, their annual revenue before they even look at RD applications.

businessinsider.com/early-decision…
The only way Tulane can afford to reject 99% of its applicants in the regular round is if it's confident it has already locked down most of its class through early decision.
