Good morning, new piece from me on the singularity of Liz Cheney, a framework for viewing Jan. 6, the question of what you should do when you think you might be losing an election, and places we might be headed that we've been before... nytimes.com/2022/08/01/opi…

This also gets into a set of binaries about Trump and the nature of peaceful transitions that I've been considering — as, I think, Cheney's actions reflect a POV about the role of individuals and Trump as a historical figure.

But those frameworks in the piece are just ideas to be considered (vs. sacred axioms). I'm also thinking about who reflects the other direction, and some other complications in really prizing the individual choice. Stuff for the future!

Friends, the time has come for the annual thread of links.

Around the holidays, I like to share stuff from the year (culture, politics, news, whatever) that I found compelling in the hopes that you'll find something you missed that you find compelling too,

Let's start off with a few favs! This essay Gabrielle Hamilton wrote in the spring about her restaurant, restaurants in general, time, and the pandemic deals so elegantly with so much and is a great read nytimes.com/2020/04/23/mag…

This story about the NBA wine club inside the bubble is cool, but especially cool are all the logistics of the NBA bubble itself espn.com/nba/story/_/pa…

“Get out while you can.”

How the young, white nationalist movement operated under the surface in Washington, D.C. — and inside the dark places the alt-right went.

A big new piece by @RosieGray....

In 2017, Breitbart fired Katie McHugh over her bigoted/racist tweets. This story is about what she did next — but also about what alt-right racists were doing long before Trump’s victory.

2015 inside Breitbart:

Brandon Darby to Katie McHugh: “I think you are a white supremacist. Am I correct? He is not a parody account at all and you know it.”

Bannon: “Brandon stop”

The 2020 Democratic primary shares a lot of the fundamentals with the 1976 Democratic primary... and what worked for Jimmy Carter has a lot to do with why people have not liked the Beto lonely man on the road tour

If you read enough about the 1976 election, you start to see some real parallels between then and now, and one of the big ones is Carter responded very directly to people's burn out buzzfeednews.com/article/kather…
