my first apartment in New York City didn't have a kitchen and the bathroom was shared with the entire floor. i'll never forget the feeling standing outside that locked bathroom door in the middle of the night, holding my then 3 yr old son, waiting our turn so he could pee.

My breakfast crack at it…You’re on the clock…

Mission: Restore @washingtonpost to its glory 
• 2 reporters on every federal agency, small WH team w/ 3 top-tier reporters and governmentwide specialists in federal rule-making and contracting and spending
• Entice Post stars who left to return as service to their city, profession and nation.  They talk a big game on X - call their bluff! 
• Two reporters on each of top local biz sectors: defense, tech, HC, lobbying & influence, etc. 
• Buy @PunchbowlNews to anchor Hill. Make @apalmerdc CEO and you head of Hill + Sports + smack-talking
• Bonus thought: buy @theinformation and make @Jessicalessin EIC.  DC and Silicon Valley are essentially merging. 
• Poach @peterbakernyt as DC news chief…
• Work w philanthropists or @propublica to fund investigative public trust w stories made available to other outlets upon publication. Team w Post staff reporters on most consequential projects.  Ask @PostBaron and @realBobWoodward unit and train a new generation of diggers and grinders…
• Reporters in top dozen global capitals covering interplay w US/DC - make @IgnatiusPost central to this 
• Fortify War unit 
• 2 reporters on each of the pro sports teams w daily newsletter by team. Lure @SallyJenki back for sweep…
• Go hyper local w local w coverage by parts of city, DMV or neighborhood (other than DC govt)
• Sunday print only or preferably none at all. AI-first for all operations beyond reporting, editing, sales, leadership. 
• Scrap opinion: city has enough noise.
• Two tier pricing: current lowest price for consumer and $1000+ for insider coverage produced by above team that’s not of broad citywide interest. 
• Set up as future profit share for all employees to be incentivize w shared business mindset and goal of permanent durability. 
• First step last: sell it to someone who will do this… then declare war on @Politico to retake what we took and make peace w/ inevitability and distinctiveness of @Axios…

what say you fella?

The Department of the Interior will keep critical services open and running for the benefit of the American people. The Department will keep national parks open, ensure permitting and other efforts related to American Energy Dominance are continued, as well as keeping our law enforcement and wildfire units active.

SHUT DOWN: The government is now shut down for the first time since 2019. The Senate rejected two proposals -- one from the GOP and another from Democrats -- to keep the government open.

President DONALD TRUMP has said his administration may use this shutdown to cut programs and perhaps "benefits." The administration has said they may conduct widespread layoffs.

SCOOP: Huge news for western states. The Senate parliamentarian has ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to allow the sale of millions of acres of federal land fails to comply with the Byrd Rule. Montana/Idaho GOP senators have said they oppose it as well.

I’m told this decision will be included in the batch of Byrd rulings slated to be released overnight tonight.
