I can’t wait to read the same piece Rick will write about JD Vance when his time comes. He thinks he’s the heir apparent. Trump is going to shiv him in Act III.
F Scott Fitzgerald was right. The Trump oligarchs are today’s “careless people “ who break things and people and then retreat into their own privilege. They don’t care about the Bari Weisses if the world. As Steve Schmidt would say, “ this is a warning.”
Weiss was on my radar for years. Her incessant disingenuous victimhood at the NYT then her involvement in the bullshit Twitter files reveal marked her as a destructive and self important player, albeit as you suggest an especially robust and ruinous pawn. I can't wait for her comeuppance.
Scathing critique of the debacle of CBS. The first capitulation foretold the end. That Weiss manages to hold poses that read with sublime arrogance (in the photos) mirrors the hubris of the enterprise. Long live independent media and the journalists creating the platforms. I’ve about given up on any outlets in legacy media- what an ironic term that is!! Grateful for the folks I find on Substack

Excellent article, Rick. Hero of the Week--Scott Pelley. Shameful Losers: CBS's dystopian owners.
