Our story on the legit lawsuit: businessinsider.com/trump-murdoch-…
This appears to be the real lawsuit. There is a different docket number for this filing than the bizarro docket.
NEW: The docket for Trump's purported lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch for the WSJ's Jeffrey Epstein story has a bunch of weird details. A person close to Trump's legal team told me it's a fake. The lawsuit is still in the works, the person said. businessinsider.com/trump-murdoch-…
.@Italiano_Laura has the rare distinction of covering both of Diddy's criminal trial, 24 years apart. So much and so little has changed. businessinsider.com/sean-combs-acq…
Can't overstate how much Rosemarie made this project a reality by doing hard, unglamorous, and necessary work — her fingerprints are on every story in this package
for the past year my (former) colleagues @BusinessInsider and i looked into the true costs of data center buildout across the country. bit by painstaking bit, we pieced together a database of permitted data centers & docs of water use + tax incentives. the series is rolling out🧵
UPDATE: They sent my @$$ to France, where I encountered foods ripped from my nightmares theatlantic.com/books/archive/…

Sadly for the people of Reddit, I got banned from r/travel for trying to post @CaityWeaver's hilarious Paris story there. To restore karmic internet balance, I am sharing a gift link here: theatlantic.com/books/archive/…
Elon Musk and Trump are feuding to distract you from @caityweaver's first story in The Atlantic. Don't let them win! Read the story!! theatlantic.com/books/archive/…
My book, "Dragon on Centre Street," is out this week! I still can’t quite believe it. The book focuses on Donald Trump’s sole criminal trial but it’s about more than that: it’s about the way that our institutions have failed to keep up with the 21st century, the way that…
A moribund caucus. An off-topic subcommittee hearing. A delayed rescission package. How DOGE-related initiatives on Capitol Hill are losing steam: businessinsider.com/doge-congress-…
A US Navy aircraft carrier deployed to the Red Sea to fight the Houthis just lost another $60 million F/A-18 Super Hornet. This one fell off the ship, months after a fighter jet from the same air wing was shot down in an apparent friendly fire incident. businessinsider.com/us-navy-aircra…
We at @BusinessInsider are interested in who is staffing DOGE and how they're changing federal government. Sometimes it can be hard to confirm details. This time... it wasn't.
Sincerely one of the funniest scoops from @TheNewsHam and @ATecotzky: We found a DOGE guy because he left his Google Calendar set on public businessinsider.com/doge-nasa-goog…
We found a DOGE guy at NASA because his Google Calendar was public businessinsider.com/doge-nasa-goog…
We got a list of workers at the White House’s DOGE office, including some new names previously unreported. Among them, a McKinsey alum and a lawyer who clerked for Clarence Thomas

Today is my last day at The New York Times! I got as much free food out of the place as I could in the time allotted. My final @NYTmag story published over the weekend, accompanied by vibrant photos that honor my culture
The Tuskegee Airmen were warfighters. They're credited with 112 kills of enemy aircraft and flew against German *jets.* Their achievements led to the USAF's racial integration. They embody the warrior ethos that the new SECDEF wants to cultivate
With the dustup with Tuskegee Airman videos in the Air Force, there's a sense of frustration among some in the Pentagon. One official told me it feels like you're "danged if you do and danged if you don't" when it comes to enforcing the Trump team's desires for changes with DEI.
For years I’ve been finding hidden Costco-sized boxes of Fruit Roll-Ups in my house. Now the paper of record has reported on it nytimes.com/2025/01/25/mag…
