My turn from investigating Pentagon failures to provide body armor in Iraq to probing big food was like going from one war to another. What we eat, and how they manipulate us, has never mattered more. cbsnews.com/video/author-m…

Quite the midterm message: we can afford wars and ballrooms, but not your “daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things”

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

.@ChefJoseAndres: I am a cook and I know there is no America without immigrants. There is no food at our table without immigrants. There is no farm without immigrants. There are no kitchens without immigrants.

The Heart Association says nuts to RFK Jr pushing beef tallow, and my Food Giants are laughing because they hold the best cards to shaping their customers eating habits: cheap, easy, irresistible.

A frisson goes through journalists everywhere when one of our number is kidnapped and held hostage. Hoping @shellykittleson is soon back to reporting, as she has for years in difficult places. nytimes.com/2026/03/31/wor…

Everyone felt sad for the penguin walking alone and the monkey rejected by his mother. But this video is far more heartbreaking, yet it didn’t receive the same attention.

This is the last report from journalist Fatima Ftouni before she was murdered by Israel. She was covering Israel’s invasion of Southern Lebanon. Israel has now killed over 280 journalists, which is 4 times more than the 70 journalists killed in both World Wars. “You only target journalists when your enemy is the truth.”

🚨 Official count confirmed: More than 8 million people participated in No Kings Day today. One of the largest single-day demonstrations in American history. 3,000 cities. Every state. Every coast. Philadelphia. Atlanta. Dallas. St. Paul. DC. San Francisco. San Diego. New York. London. Tel Aviv. Scotland. And counting. To put 8 million in context: The Women’s March in 2017 — the previous record — drew an estimated 3-5 million. Today more than doubled it. 8 million Americans didn’t just protest today. They sent a message that cannot be ignored, cannot be dismissed, and cannot be spun. The founders settled the kings question in 1776. 8 million Americans settled it again today.

Two weeks ago, the United States denounced Iran for using cluster bombs against Israel, rightly calling them "an inherently indiscriminate type of munition." Now it appears that the US or Israel is using American cluster bombs against Iran. nytimes.com/2026/03/27/us/…

Israeli Strike Kills 3 Journalists in Southern Lebanon, Officials Say nytimes.com/2026/03/28/wor… via @NYTimes

Israel has just killed Lebanese journalist Fatima Ftouni. I am honoured to have known her. Just at the beginning of the month she reported on Israel killing seven members of her own family live on air.

It's like watching LeBron's first year. He's already doing it like nobody else and he's just going to get better.

This keynote at @cornelluniversity exploded into a delicious incubator for ideas when we asked these high schoolers brought by the @worldfoodprize to steal some marketing power from Big Food to sell plain old kohlrabi. They started with the name: “can we call it ‘kool-rabi’?”e

Let’s go Mets!

@TransAlt Thank you

Imagine a city where it’s as safe to bike on every street as it is on the Hudson River Greenway. That’s the city we’re fighting for.

The most important thing about this amazing Paris transformation is how fast it happened —how fast people on bikes “appeared” —once streets were transformed. You can’t write this off as “#Paris was always this way,” because it wasn’t. It took leadership.
