Democrats and Republicans alike have taken this opportunity to remind everyone that xenophobia belongs to no party, as Zohran Mamdani wins the NYC Dem primary. Meanwhile, Senate Republicans fashioned their version of Trump's budget and tax plan, which includes record-setting cuts to Medicare and is projected to add more to the deficit than the original House version of the bill, somehow.

Hello, dear listener. Looks like we're having a two-fer with out-of-ordinary entries.

I had been working on a draft for tomorrow's newsletter, only to of course have it entirely undermined by the events that unfolded last night. I decided instead to record some more focused thoughts on the situation.

Depending on how the next 24 hours or so go, I may put out a shorter newsletter/podcast covering some other topics, but I am treating everything as temporary for the time being.

Wishing you well. Stay safe. Stay frosty. Stay skeptical. Remember your community.

A look at the timeline of the situation in Los Angeles so far, as well as a few of the other trillion things going on right now
