‘Mommy, Will You Marry My Daddy?’

The couple met and had a child, but marriage took a little longer.

Sooner is better.     As soon as you can is best.

Confirm or Deny ... Susan Fowler

The former Uber employee has deleted her account. But would she ever go back?

Uber cheats every way it can.

Traveling Across Japan

Hiroyuki Ito, a photographer who grew up in Tokyo, wanted to see more of his country. So he spent two months this summer documenting interesting moments.

The surprise is publication.

No stick required.

10A: Today, the question isn’t “Who is Mike?” but “Where does this mike belong?” The mike in question belongs on a PODIUM.

Lectern does not fit.  The mike is on a tall stand.

The loch must be in the north of Britain.

Going Against the Republican Herd

Party members who reject Bannonism must stand up and be counted.

"There is a nihilistic strain coursing through the veins of a significant number of people on the American right. They delight in Mr. Trump’s effort to annihilate truth and peddle conspiracy theories, and they draw energy and purpose from the unsettling effect he has on the nation as a whole. For them, Mr. Trump is a “fighter,” and politics needs to be weaponized in order to be enjoyed. They see politics as World Wrestling Entertainment, and Mr. Trump as the best wrestler in the ring."

This form of political battle will destroy the Republican party,
the constitution or both.

High School Students Explain Why They Protest Anthems and Pledges

Colin Kaepernick’s decision to sit or take a knee during the national anthem exploded into a national conversation about race. Here, high school students tell us why they sit or kneel during the national anthem or the Pledge of Allegiance — or why they stand and participate.

Only a drunken boy soprano or a castrato has the vocal range.

A remnant of the Civil War.

Jimmy Carter Lusts for a Trump Posting

Puritanical Democratic former president seeks job with louche Republican current president — but just to save the world.

"Perhaps the horse will learn to sing hymns."

My Parents’ Country, in the Grip of the Shabab

This year, I felt compelled to travel to Mogadishu, the city of my father’s youth. Along the way, I saw order, puritanism, fear and villages without men.

Teach liberalism.

Why Has the E.P.A. Shifted on Toxic Chemicals? An Industry Insider Helps Call the Shots

A scientist who worked for the chemical industry now shapes policy on hazardous chemicals. Within the E.P.A., there is fear that public health is at risk. (At right, a signing ceremony for new rules on toxic chemicals.)

I do not need the lecture.

Political Guardrails Gone, a President’s Somber Duty Skids Into Spectacle


Trump is wrong and lying.
