A couple months ago I interviewed Derek Thompson about his book with co-author Ezra Klein, Abundance. It was, in many ways, a positive, wonky book about reducing red tape and enabling ‘a liberalism that builds,’ literally and figuratively, to solve today’s problems. I’ve been supportive of many of these ideas as I agree that making government work better is a laudable goal. And their argument has filled a need, as “Abundance” has been on the bestseller list now for 10 straight weeks.

Hello, I hope that you’re enjoying this weekend with friends and family. Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial beginning of Summer. Summer 2025 is here! How does it feel? I grew up in upstate New York and then a suburb of New York City in Westchester County. There were not many kids there from military families. A couple guys from my high school went to West Point or the Air Force Academy but they were somewhat unusual.

This week will be marked by the release of the new book, Original Sin by Alex Thompson and Jake Tapper about Joe Biden’s disastrous choice to run for re-election. The press excerpt has already set off a mini-firestorm with an account of Joe Biden’s incoherence backstage at the now-infamous LA fundraiser hosted by George Clooney last June. I joked with a friend, “Who knew it would take George Clooney to save democracy?” His Op-Ed was too little too late.

“Be a good person.” We’ve all either given that advice to our kids or received it thousands of times. Most people might interpret it as “Be nice” or “Be kind to others.” Rutger Bregman is thinking a lot bigger than that. You might remember Rutger from his books Utopia for Realists or Humankind or his TED Talk on Universal Basic Income. Now, he’s out with a new book, Moral Ambition: Stop Wasting Your Talent and Start Making a Difference.

Memorial Day is a day to reflect on those who gave their lives in service to our country. We owe them a debt we can never repay. ⬆️🇺🇸
