Any article that solidly supports the use of the word definistration is a good one.
I've been looking for a substantive review of the impact of the elections and here we are. Lifting the panel (I would have said skirts a couple of decades ago) of Congress so we can really see the mechanisms and understand their import is invaluable. I do not expect to see anything nearly so insightful.
Long ago and far away I used to read National Review. My father-in-law had a subscription. I don't think I agreed with a single article in the magazine but it helped me see how things worked and how people in charge really did things. Your writing reminds me of that. Without the pomposity and reactionarly bent. And I don't quite so frequently need a dictionary reading your emails. Only occasionally.
When I read your articles I see contributions to history, to the understanding of this era. Keep it up, please.
Some Democrats have said that they want their elected folks to work for bipartisan effort on legislation for the good of the American people. With a Jordan in House leadership and an Acting President Stephen Miller, that scenario is unlikely ….
Although “extreme” is undoubtedly appropriate in this case, I have to challenge whether it is appropriate to call such individuals conservative relative to what conservatism once stood for.
Fabulous piece, Gabe.
Thanks, Matt!

Trump cares about buildings and being remembered. At least he read the room. They got slammed. A perfect storm?
Still he picks Miller and the tone-deaf Republicans pick Jordon.
Seems far right, Freedom Caucus, Project 2025 extremists aren't going down.
Trump doesn't care about them, that, or Americans.
The rank and, well, rank, voted on party lie, er line, because they would be seen as hypocrites for "so Now you vote against the President."
Sad, but Hope!
The country spoke! Enough is enough! Take your personal gain, grifting, and manly men agenda and go home.
