Slow Boring

By Matthew Yglesias

Start your day with pragmatic takes on politics and public policy.

I first came across Matthew Yglesias via Vox, which he co-founded with Ezra Klein and Melissa Bell. Thoughtful and thought-provoking writing about politics and the economy.

The Bulwark

Analysis and reporting on politics and culture in America. No partisan loyalties. No tribal prejudices.

Founded 2018 by Sarah Longwell, Charlie Sykes, Bill Kristol. Generally conservative "country over party" slant by people with whom I can respectfully disagree when it comes to that on occasion. Many fine writers. I'm especially drawn to Kimberly Wehle (legal issues), Cathy Young (excellent on Russia and Ukraine), Amanda Carpenter. My brother is a Tim Miller fan.
