EXCLUSIVE @TheAtlantic On multiple occasions Patel’s security detail had difficulty waking him because he was seemingly intoxicated, according to info supplied to DOJ and White House officials. A request for “breaching equipment”was made because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors. theatlantic.com/politics/202…
The truth about the award is that The Atlantic’s reporting last week was, in fact, true.

Last year, The Atlantic gave me $10K to gamble with. What started as a journalistic gimmick turned into something more... unnerving.
My cover story on the online betting boom warping sports, culture, politics, and the psyches of millions of young men: theatlantic.com/magazine/202…
The DOD employs nearly 3 million. “Any one of them would have faced serious consequences for announcing, on an insecure messaging app, that the U.S. was about to send its pilots over enemy territory. All except one.”

As measles-vaccination rates fall and outbreaks rise in the U.S., @ebruenig writes unsparingly about what the virus does to a child’s body:

More big hiring news, and excitement for our growing podcast network (this will be our fourth new video podcast in a year). Welcome David Brooks to The Atlantic:

“He’s been our guardian angel,” a weeping respiratory syncytial virus added. “We were on the brink of destruction, and—he spared us.”

“Come on the plane,” Jeffrey said once. “It’s called the Lolita Express.”
“Sure,” I said. This was the most excited I had been in some time. I had no idea that Jeffrey also loved Nabokov. “I love a literary classic with an unreliable narrator.”

This string of words is completely false. The Atlantic does not have donors. We’re profitable and entirely self-sustaining. We have a subscription and advertising model – and both are at record highs and growing.
Wired, The Atlantic, Guardian and many other propaganda legacy publications would die immediately if they had to support themselves. Donations from far left organizations disguised as charities are what keep them alive.
They serve simply as a means of influencing Wikipedia, Google, etc as fake “authoritative” sources.
“The work of philanthropy, then, isn’t to command or correct—and it certainly isn’t to demean and disparage. It’s to sustain. And its truest measure is not what it buys but what it actually helps to build.”

"The day before our departure, one reporter placed signs throughout our soon-to-be-vacated spaces that read 'Journalism is not a crime.' As soon as members of Hegseth’s staff saw the signs they tore them down." Must-read from @nancyayoussef on her last days inside the Pentagon⬇️
“The whole industry has been through two decades of ‘how do we survive, what do we do, how do we figure this out?’ The answer is always there — it’s make high-quality journalism and show the readers of that journalism why it’s worth paying for it. Knock on wood, it’s working.”
During troubled times in news industry, 168-year-old Atlantic thrives with newspaper-magazine hybrid apnews.com/article/atlantic-…
“If the leaders of the world’s most advanced military aren’t comfortable responding to critical questions, they look weak—not strong.” Read @nancyayoussef on her 18 years covering the Pentagon:

VP Pence at The Atlantic Festival: I do think leaders would do well to uphold a threshold of civility in American public life. Lets argue about policy... I’m somebody who believes you can disagree without being disagreeable.

Mike Pence asked by @TimAlberta at The Atlantic Festival about Trump blaming the “radical left” for the assassination of Charlie Kirk: “There is no place in America for political violence and it should be universally condemned.” Watch live:

The first excerpt from Kamala Harris's book is out this morning @TheAtlantic.
@JeffreyGoldberg says the book is full of surprises:
"I read it last week, expecting lawyerly calibration and discretion. This careful Harris is present, but so too is another Harris: blunt, knowing, fervent, occasionally profane, slyly funny. As you will see in the following excerpt—and throughout this newsworthy book—she no longer seems particularly interested in holding back."

Admin officials have cut federal-law-enforcement training for new deportation officers roughly in half. Academy training was shortened to 47 days, the number picked because Trump is the 47th president. Latest on the supersizing of ICE by @NickMiroff:

Millions of dollars’ worth of equipment that the U.S. has already purchased is being auctioned off, likely at an extreme loss, or abandoned: mosquito nets, water towers, laptops, generators, defibrillators, tractors, motorbikes, mobile health clinics.
