Next Draft - Tired of All the Winning
Among other works, Yuval Noah Harari is the author of Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind. He's recently turned his attention to perhaps the most complex and conflicted recent history of humankind; the Middle East crisis. Unsurprisingly, he's written a clear, evenhanded, absolutely must-read piece for WaPo (Gift Article): Is Hamas winning the war? Below are a few key excerpts. 2Fani Willis Cuts the Chesebro DealAnother day and another defendant cops a plea in the Georgia rico case against those who conspired to overturn the election. Yesterday, it was Sidney Powell. Today, we're adding some cheese to that kracken. Kenneth Chesebro takes last-minute plea deal, agrees to testify in Georgia election case. (The teflon is being chipped away, folks.) Both Powell and Chesebro demanded speedy trials. This went faster than they, and their co-defendants, thought. 3JimnauseamAfter losing a third attempt to become speaker (by a larger margin than his first two attempts), Jim Jordan is toast. He "dropped out of the speaker's race Friday after he lost a vote of confidence during a closed-door meeting of House Republicans, just moments after the Donald Trump-backed candidate was defeated on the House floor for a third time this week." This is all the Feel Good Friday news I need. But it's important to keep in mind that Jordan tried to overthrow the 2020 election and wouldn't publicly accept the results as recently as this morning, and he still got 200 of his colleagues to vote for him. 4Weekend WhatsWhat to Watch: I don't want to tell you too much about the charming series Nada on Hulu. It takes place in Argentina. It's got colorful and delightful cinematography. There's a great focus on food preparation and consumption. And it's got one of the most perplexing and (at least through four episodes) useless cameos of all time. But it's a really nice show. 5Extra, ExtraWheels of Justice Grind: "It’s all academic. I don’t have a million dollars. My company has a few million, but that’s just to pay the bills and my product in the future. So we are literally on empty ... At the end of the day, they won’t take my free speech away. I’m still going to be on the air one way or another." Judge rules Alex Jones can’t use bankruptcy protection to avoid paying Sandy Hook families. (But until he actually pays, the spreading of one of the sickest conspiracy theories imaginable goes unpunished.) 6Feel Good FridayWaPo (Gift Article): "When her checkup was over, he handed her a printed summary of the appointment, with instructions to get a high-dose flu shot in October and a coronavirus shot in November. Then Sipe’s eyes lingered at the item at the top of the list: 'Get a cat,' the doctor wrote." Get a copy of my 📕, Please Scream Inside Your Heart, or grab a 👕 in the Store. |
