The federal government has gone insane.

Movies

Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Mister Rogers: Hollywood’s Newest Breakout Stars

Documentaries about them are the surprise hits of the season. But exactly why these films are drawing moviegoers is up for debate.

The reactionaries are lying to the world.

Banksy Spreads a Trail of Graffiti, and Rumors, Across Paris

A series of unsigned murals sparked talk that the artist was in the city — and a race to protect, or deface, his work.

Banksy is a political cartoonist without an employer.

Reality Winner, N.S.A. Contractor Accused in Leak, Pleads Guilty

Ms. Winner, who pleaded guilty in Georgia, was the first person to be arrested during President Trump’s administration for leaking classified information.

She is making the best deal she can.
She is an heroic prisoner of conscience.
This is the first I have heard of her.

Wanted for ‘Don Q’: 2 Ballerinas, Experience and Comic Skills a Plus

Sarah Lane and Hee Seo are making late-career debuts as Kitri at American Ballet Theater. They talk to us about the role, the company, the pressures.

I would like to see this Don Quixote.

Scientist Fatally Shot While Camping With His Daughters

Police said they have no motive or suspects in the death at Malibu Creek State Park, where past shootings have been reported.

Keith Haring Mural in Amsterdam Is Uncovered After Nearly 30 Years

The 40-foot work, painted on the side of a storage facility, was hidden behind aluminum insulation panels.

A work not lost but hidden away.

U.S.

‘Why Do You Hate Us?’ He Asked. ‘Because You’re Mexicans,’ She Replied.

In a viral video, a woman unleashed a diatribe against a man and his mother, and, invoking President Trump, called Mexicans rapists, animals and drug dealers.

Prejudice.

You Can’t Hurt Lindsay Lohan Now

Once America’s favorite troubled teen, treated with scorn and sexism, our greatest export reveals she’s in a better place now. (It’s called Lohan Beach House.)

There is no reason to hurt a recluse.
