Really enjoyed the new book by @CarlosLozadaWP, "What Were We Thinking." The Post's book critic reflects on the enormous output of books during the Trump years and writes with authority about what they reveal about the nation and our times. https://t.co/i2QGfE9140

Congrats to the tireless and astute @mikeallen, along with Jim VandeHei and Roy Schwartz, on the publication of "Smart Brevity." I've enjoyed their work at @axios and they've created a roadmap for how to focus and sharpen the news and related analysis.

“And Woodward said to me, it's almost like when he was writing The Final Days with Carl Bernstein, when [Richard] Nixon was talking to the pictures on the wall, Trump is talking to the mob.” https://t.co/8RazlBHihw

"In the meantime, public knowledge of the actions in the White House that precipitated Jan. 6 was building rapidly. A book... detailed a memo by John Eastman purporting to show a legal basis for Pence to block the certification of Biden’s win...." https://t.co/CLa8i3cvze

An Unfinished Love Story: A Personal History of the 1960s

Doris Kearns Goodwin

Doris Kearns Goodwin is a rare presence on our national stage – an historian with academic cred and pop-culture cachet. Her work, of course, is serious, but she shares it with joy, and sometimes a laugh…Her latest book does that, too, and it's deeply personal.

Former Vice President Pence details Trump’s pressure campaign for the first time here. Bob Woodward and I spent a lot of time digging into this part of the Jan. 6 crisis in “Peril.” As we learned and as Pence writes, the chronology is so key to this story. https://t.co/zobGN1j1ug
