To understand the new White House chief of staff, @StephenM, you have to read @maggieNYT and @jonathanvswan’s book. In my review @thedispatch earlier this year, I identified him as the most dominant character in it not named Donald Trump. thedispatch.com/article/stephe…

thedispatch.com Stephen Miller’s Wrecking Ball A new book shows how Trump’s aide tears things down—but then retreats from the damage he caused.

This is fun. There's also Gov. Pierre du Pont (who went by Pete) of Delaware, Gov. Pierre Derbigny of Louisiana, and four Austins: Blair of Michigan, King of Missouri, Crothers of Maryland, and Peay of Tennessee.

And there will be a Gov. Madison from Gen Z one day, I'm sure.

Helena Foulkes will be the first US state governor whose first name is another state's capital since Lincoln Chafee, who was the first since Lincoln Almond

All three just so happen to be governors of Rhode Island

I don’t think you can understand the results in the South this week without appreciating that trade and open markets have been a boon there, that growth is a part of the culture, and that Trump has won there in spite of the economic populism, not because of it.

The New South is the anti-Rust Belt. A poor unproductive backwater made prosperous by globalization, free trade, and free markets. The governing ideology of the new GOP cannot win in the South.

Either reverse course NOW, or enjoy your 9 point win in Alabama while you still can.

Really smart analysis from
@McCormackJohn @thedispatch on which types of voters swung to the left this time to give Democrats such a big win in the midterms. The short answer: every type.

thedispatch.com The Voters Who Swung 2026 Virtually every demographic moved against Trump and Republicans, but some moved more than others.

Feeling good about my prediction on last night’s @thedispatch Live that a lot of Trump’s next two years will be focused on this kind of stuff.
