I remain quarantined in Hubei, safe but unsure how long I’m stuck here. This is my @nybooks story. Spoiler alert: the UK abandons me at the end. https://t.co/90QoYtnWsM #coronaviruschina #nCoV19

Remainers and Leavers alike have been caught off-guard by the strength of feeling aroused. And it’s not even remotely fanciful to imagine that the schism within Britain will haunt the polity for decades

“The party of Lincoln, Eisenhower, and Reagan is now slavishly loyal to a corrupt reality-TV host whose only demonstrable allegiances are to his own image and Vladimir Putin.”

This is a superb read. I'm no philosopher, and have no interest in becoming one. But I do think we have departed Normsland, and it's unlikely many norms (read: handshake agreements, actions subject to stigma) will return. https://t.co/1JHawvjmYG

"Wonderful" is too cuddly a word to use in connection with the Reichstagish events currently ongoing at the Federal level, but this connecting of a big crime to a small, absurd one is very helpful. https://t.co/hevyfKd5zG

The crown prince is not the visionary leader that he would like the world to see. He is a tyrant who has turned Saudi Arabia from a soft autocracy where mild dissent was somewhat tolerated into a police state.

Bob McDonnell, Chris Christie, Donald Trump—public officials right up to the Oval Office now have a waiver from both Congress and the Supreme Court to abuse their power for personal gain, writes @AndreaWNYC: https://t.co/QqGBXzeQM0 via @nybooks

“For Trump the Hamilton lyric should be rewritten: ‘Everything is legal. If you’re president.’” So writes @AndreaWNYC, author of the new book ‘American Oligarchs’: https://t.co/QqGBXzeQM0 via @nybooks
