Fascinating interview by @danielrothberg with an expert about Lake Mead's diminished level, water shortages and climate change. That and more nuggets in his must-read newsletter. https://t.co/JSOsrWMD1l

If: a Memoir - An alcoholic gambles his sobriety on a 16,000-kilometre motorcycle ride to find himself.

Richard West

My Oscars take (I know you need it): I have not seen King Richard or West Side Story and I have no idea why Don't Look Up was nominated, so FWIW: I'd be fine if Drive My Car or Power of the Dog or CODA won -- all great films, with Dune/Belfast close. No other opinion matters.

Good morning from The #WeMatter State. On this date in 2005, five-term GOP Rep. Jim Gibbons announced for gov next to...Jack Kemp and John Ensign. He had lost a gov bid in 1994 to Bob Miller. This time he would defeat Dina Titus. Days 'til early voting: 52 Days 'til general: 69 https://t.co/QMST7XR4Io

The Big Truth: Upholding Democracy in the Age of "The Big Lie"

Major Garrett
Jon RalstonJon Ralston

I recommend everyone who can read "The Big Truth" by @MajorCBS and @beckerdavidj. It shows how dangerous The Big Lie is and how close we are to the precipice. Truth is not partisan. It's also not partisan to point out that nearly every speaker tonight was an election denier. 1/

Searchlight: The Camp That Didn't Fail

Harry Reid
Jon RalstonJon Ralston

Good morning from The #WeMatter State. On this day in 1987, Harry Reid was sworn into the U.S. Senate for the first time. THIS is the year I finish my Reid bio. What an unlikely story, from Searchlight to DC. I've learned a lot. Days 'til #nvleg: 34 Dats 'til 2024 election: 672 https://t.co/rCMRBCdOvW
