I interviewed @columbiasipa.bsky.social professor and Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz about his book, The Road to Freedom, and what he thinks inequality means in the age of AI. The verdict: it’s not looking good

Some truly original reporting here: I was scrolling through the US Mint’s site for unrelated reasons and noticed something’s off with the new dime design

You’ve heard it: “if I could go back, I’d invest everything I owned in ____.” Well, this week, Microsoft’s IPO turned 40. To say you’d be a millionaire is an understatement

Washington has not changed its tax code in almost a century— an every effort to do so until now has ended in defeat. Now, after a 25 hour filibuster complete with 81 amendments, the state has an income tax

Outside of Hurricane Sandy, many of us have never experienced gas shortages or even-odd gas days. The chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz might mean a comeback for those gas lines

White smoke has begun flowing over 100 Centre St

I’d like to be the first to thank jurors for getting the verdict in before the print deadline

THERE IS A VERDICT (to be shared in 20 mins)

You can really tell the Trump trial journos are gluttons for punishment because even though we’ve been offered a room with cushioned seats and the ability to make phone calls/talk to each other, the majority of us are quietly sitting in the courtroom in hardwood pews

NEW: A guilty verdict won’t sway that many voters come November, according to a new Marist poll released today. In fact, 15% of voters said they were more likely to vote for Trump if convicted www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Michael Cohen already has a thick New York accent. The court reporter rereading his testimony is spot on with the “awe-fice”

As the two court reporters read Pecker’s testimony, I couldn’t help but wonder, should journos reconsider editing out filler words in quotes?

Little known fact about the NYC Courts system is all court reporters must have thick city accents

We’re done with the rereading of jury instructions. Judge Juan Merchan to jurors: “I believe that concludes my response to the first question. Was that responsive to you? Okay.”

Jurors are not given the physical testimony to review, so they have to request testimony be read back to them. That’s why Merchan is currently rereading his instructions and we stayed OT last night to listen to Todd Blanche/Joshua Steinglass discuss which excerpts to include

Jurors today will listen to excerpts of AMI honcho David Pecker's testimony regarding the infamous Trump Tower meeting between himself, Donald Trump and Michael Cohen. Here's a recap of his testimony as the trial's first witness over a month ago (!) t.co/8nPpyJiC8O

Hello from 100 Centre St, day two of jury deliberations on the Donald Trump hush money case. Jurors gave another note, asking for headphones for use of the evidence laptop, and they were offered speakers as well

Everyone’s asking “could today be the day” like a patient girlfriend reading her boyfriend’s midafternoon shower during their trip to Santorini

Joshua Steinglass is nearing hour six of summation. Someone play the music!!

Jurors, reporters, lawyers, Merchan and Trump have been sitting at 100 Centre St for nearly 11 hours. Here’s what each sided argued in closing arguments: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Closing arguments feels a lot like teachers spending the week before a state test telling you all the answers so the zone school gets more funding

Merchan just informed us jurors have made childcare arrangements until 8PM

Sure Cohen made and received a lot of calls in the half hour before wiring money for Stormy’s story, but you’ve never seen my Catholic mother spread news of a church lady’s daughter giving birth just eight months after her wedding

Trump trial bingo but it’s every Seinfeld reference ADA Joshua Steinglass makes

Take a random guess what Trump got for lunch today

Take a random guess what Trump got for lunch today

Blanches characterizes the Stormy Daniels story as “an event that supposedly happened in 2006, 18 years ago… by people to extort money from President Trump”

Todd Blache is pretty well prepared in his closing arguments so far, save for how he called the difference between 1988 and 2015 as only 17 years

We got a heavily accented Long Island woman with a pen but no paper asking a heavily accented Brooklyn with paper but no pen for a swap. Members of the public fully displaying ancient bartering techniques in the courtroom today

If you want to cover the Trump trial you should wait in line at 3am like the rest of us #riseandgrind #crabmentality

I spoke to former DOJ officials about what the antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation could mean for concertgoers and if a breakup with Ticketmaster was likely t.co/MrBsDpm2CO

Defense rests their case: Trump will not testify

Back another day at 100 Centre for what could be the last day of witness testimony. Robert Costello takes the stand after yesterday’s show of force from Judge Merchan, who dressed him down for showing contempt to the court. Read about it here: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

ICYMI: Judge Merchan kicked out the courtroom yesterday to admonish the defense’s second witness, former Giuliani lawyer Robert Costello www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

NYC Taxi Medallions, the Tennessee Valley Authority, Madame Tussauds: This Cohen testimony has it all for your niche urbanism nerds

Michael Cohen made $4 million in six different consulting gigs in 2017 -- the same year he was paid $420,000 by the Trump Org as a "retainer" for legal services

Cohen handing the CEO of a tech company $20k in "a brown paper bag" makes all those public venmo transaction to my high school plug that much more discreet

Cohen talks about taxi medallions like how journalists talk about journalism: "Because of the entire taxi industry financial situation"

Todd Blanche lands his first dig at Cohen, again reminding him of his perjury. "During that testimony you gave in February 2019, that’s around when you lied right?" "Yes sir," Cohen responds

Michael Cohen testifying he’s met with prosecutors between 12-20 times since the start of the year for sometimes over two hours. Todd Blanche is asking if he’s heard new questions during this time
