From day one, the promise—and the business proposition—of @TheFP was simple: We would marry the quality of the old world to the freedom of the new. We would seek the truth and tell it plainly. And we would treat readers like adults capable of making their own choices.
So many people told us this was no longer possible. That the premise of a media company built on trust rather than partisanship was, at best, a relic from the past—and, at worst, a fantasy that never was. That the internet killed journalism. That there simply weren��t enough Americans out there in search of media driven by honesty, independence, and integrity.
Our readers proved them wrong. Our subscribers demonstrated that there’s a market for honest journalism. And they’ve given us a mandate to pursue that mission from an even bigger platform.

I'd put this outstanding @Douthat60 interview with Trump right up there with the terrific @jonathanvswan interview during the first term. Revealing on so many levels.
There has been no running water across Kyiv's city center for hours today (no toilets, no showers, no dishes, no non-bottled drinking water) following Russian strikes on energy infrastructure.
TONIGHT! Lots going on @CBSNews and @TheFP!

The wife of an Afghan man who once assisted the U.S. military feels ‘numb,’ she tells Frannie Block. ‘They are sending him back to be in danger.’ https://t.co/Fp6hu95VJE
Last night, at 11 PM, I received a call from a friend of Haley Stevens: would I want to come over to speak at her fiancé's home?
In pink fuzzy slippers, she seemed at ease: "I'm at peace with this," she told me. "I’m not wrestling with this."
She said she realized on Saturday night she could no longer back Abdul El-Sayed, who she said holds certain "anti-American" views and is "obsessive, obsessive, obsessive" about Israel.
“I wasn’t being honest with myself after a certain point,” she said.
The final breaking point was a recent ad that blamed rising costs on the American funding of “killing Palestinians.” A contributing factor was El-Sayed's inability to condemn Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
"God, I wanted to vote for him, but he just kind of said ‘Forget it."
She said she is considering attending a Monday "Democrats for Mike Rogers" rally—but to not get it twisted: "I’m not going to be best friends with Mike Rogers either."
The Trump administration says there are no 'wrongfully detained' Americans left in Russia.
There's much more to the story.
Important report from @FrannieBlock.

Abigail Shrier is an incredible investigative journalist. She is also the best advice columnist in the country. Don't miss this week's Tough Love in @TheFP:

Tomorrow we're releasing a full UATX course for free: all 19 lectures of Professor Isabella Reinhardt's Rise and Fall of Ancient Rome, filmed in class with our students.
It runs from Rome's mythical founding to the Third Century Crisis. It ends on a question the class spent a whole session arguing about: did Rome ever really fall?

Will never forget when @SnoozyWeiss first contacted me to ask if I could speak to her about happened. Her investigation was the first truly independent look at what actually happened.
