    I am leaving the Washington Post to join a new journalistic venture backed by Politico founder Robert Allbritton that will be both the hometown publication the D.C. region sorely needs and a scrappy and fearless national news organization. I hope you'll join us.

    Remember this moment: Trump, in South Carolina, just called the coronavirus a "hoax."

    See how he does that? More than 200 House Democrats support impeachment, but the ones he singles out as “Savages” are two Jews and four women of color.

    Can you imagine if these Do Nothing Democrat Savages, people like Nadler, Schiff, AOC Plus 3, and many more, had a Republican Party who would have done to Obama what the Do Nothings are doing to me. Oh well, maybe next time!

    Trump’s White House just revoked the press pass I’ve had for 21 years as part of its broader crackdown on journalists’ access.

    Email this morning from a Trump supporter: “Where in the Constitution does it mention a person must be fit to serve as president?”

    Forget politics for a moment. Forget about impeachment. Matt Gaetz's exploitation and mockery of Hunter Biden's struggle with addiction should make all of us -- as parents, as people -- ask: Where is his humanity?

    Mitch McConnell has been key to helping Russian oligarchs with ties to Putin skirt U.S. sanctions and invest in an aluminum mill in McConnell’s home state of Kentucky. My Sunday column... wapo.st/2Mz3bi4?tid=ss…

    I don't necessarily agree with @Acosta 's approach, but this is beyond anything in the 5 administrations I've covered. No journalist should attend, nor cover, a single presidential event or briefing unless and until Jim's access has been restored.

    Trump, Fox News et al told the world two border agents were brutally beaten, one fatally, by illegal immigrants. The FBI investigated and found no such thing. As Jonathan Swift wrote: falsehood flies, and the truth limps behind.
    Opinion | Trump concocted a story about a border agent’s death. The truth won’t catch up.

    Two years ago, the vindictive Trump White House revoked the press pass I had had since the Clinton administration. This week the Biden White House restored my press pass. It feels great to have a normal president again.
