1) After (yet another) nightmarish travel disaster this weekend (thanks, Delta!) I jokingly said we should nationlize the airlines. Well, maybe not nationalize.

2)A review of Ross Douthat and Reihan Salam’s Grand New Party, a book about turning the Republican party into something decent. I have pretty massive ideological disagreements with both Ross and Reihan and the book, but the country would be a much better place if they were running the Republican party. I’m going to be interviewing (occasionally grilling) them at the Borders on 18th and K tomorrow at 6:30pm.

3) The Supreme Court court term is coming to a close. A roundtable of court-watchers discuss the term over at Slate.

Your support makes stories like this possible

From illegal war on Iran to an inhumane fuel blockade of Cuba, from AI weapons to crypto corruption, this is a time of staggering chaos, cruelty, and violence. 

Unlike other publications that parrot the views of authoritarians, billionaires, and corporations, The Nation publishes stories that hold the powerful to account and center the communities too often denied a voice in the national media—stories like the one you’ve just read.

Each day, our journalism cuts through lies and distortions, contextualizes the developments reshaping politics around the globe, and advances progressive ideas that oxygenate our movements and instigate change in the halls of power. 

This independent journalism is only possible with the support of our readers. If you want to see more urgent coverage like this, please donate to The Nation today.
