Last Thursday, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced it had made arrests in a pair of investigations into illegal gambling involving National Basketball Association (NBA) players and coaches. Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier is among those charged in the illegal sports betting case, while Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and several others are charged with participating in rigged poker games with ties to the mafia. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, the bureau has arrested 34 people as a result of the multi-year investigations, which covered 11 states and involved tens of millions of dollars. Billups and Rozier have been placed on leaves from their teams, and the NBA announced a review of its gambling rules.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!I actually met them.Last year, the podcasts Question Everything and This American Lifedid a feature on the work we do here at Tangle.

The story went viral and led to hundreds of thousands of new readers of this newsletter.Well, last weekend, at our event in Southern California, I got to meet Dick and Emily in person for the first time.

On Sunday, Argentinian President Javier Milei's La Libertad Avanza (Freedom Advances) party won approximately 41% of the national vote in the country's midterms, outperforming polling expectations and more than doubling its representation in the next congress. The result gives Milei additional legislative support to uphold presidential vetoes and block impeachment efforts. It also serves as a vote of confidence in his administration, which has prioritized spending cuts and other large-scale reforms. In the weeks before the election, the Trump administration also provided $40 billion in financial support to stabilize the country's currency and markets.

Over the past week, construction crews have demolished the White House's East Wing to make way for a new ballroom to host large events for world leaders and other guests. After initially saying the project would not impact existing infrastructure, President Donald Trump acknowledged on Wednesday that the entire East Wing would be destroyed; by Thursday, it was completely razed. The Trump administration says a new East Wing will be built along with the ballroom.

The fundamental promise of this news publication is viewpoint diversity.I built Tangle because I wanted a place where conservatives, liberals, and everyone in between could gather under one roof and trust the news they were reading. In an era when media trust is at an all-time low, polarization is increasingly extreme and so few people seem capable of talking to each other across the partisan divide, this North Star has always served us well.In order to serve this mission, to earn the trust of the biggest Trump supporters and the most progressive leftists and all the people who land somewhere between them, we offer some simple promises: chief among them is viewpoint diversity in our content. Most days, this is “What the left is saying” and “What the right is saying,” though sometimes we'll offer pieces that counter each other (for instance, a Tangle staff member is working on a piece responding to what I'm writing here today). We also lean into transparency in how we work by featuring corrections prominently and sharing (and explaining) our editorial policies. Finally, we try to show that we're fallible humans who can make mistakes, learn and change their minds, rather than pretend we comprise a flawless high-minded institution (we regularly feature reader criticisms, and I encourage anyone who disagrees with today's piece to write in or comment so we can consider your thoughts).

On Monday, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2–1 that President Donald Trump can deploy Oregon National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, finding it was likely that the president had “lawfully exercised his statutory authority” in mobilizing the Guard. The decision lifted District Judge Karin Immergut's temporary block on the Oregon soldiers' deployment, and the Trump administration asked the judge to lift a second order barring all federalized National Guard troops from deploying to the city. Immergut gave the state and city of Portland 24 hours to respond to the request.Tangle is coming live — this week!We're just a few days away from Tangle News: Live! at the Irvine Barclay Theatre on Friday, October 24 — and I couldn't be more excited.

Last Tuesday, Politico publishedscreenshots of text messages sent by members of Young Republicans, an organization for Republican party members between 18 and 40 years old, that featured offensive jokes and racist language. In the messages, various leaders of Young Republican chapters across the country joked about planting fake stories to smear rival GOP candidates, used racial epithets to refer to black people, and expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler. Those implicated in the texts reportedly represent chapters in New York, Kansas, Arizona, and Vermont.Tangle is coming live — this week!We're just a few days away from Tangle News: Live! at the Irvine Barclay Theatre on Friday, October 24 — and I couldn't be more excited.

On Tuesday, the federal government shutdown entered its 21st day, with Republican and Democratic lawmakers at an impasse over a deal to reopen the government. The shutdown is now the longest full government shutdown in U.S. history; only the 35-day partial funding lapse in 2018–2019 lasted longer. On Monday, the Senate failed to pass a GOP-backed funding bill for the 11th time.

On Friday, President Donald Trump announced he had commuted the sentence of former Rep. George Santos (R-NY), who was serving a seven-year prison sentence for fraud and identity theft. In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, “George Santos was somewhat of a ‘rogue,' but there are many rogues throughout our Country that aren't forced to serve seven years in prison,” adding, “George has been in solitary confinement for long stretches of time and, by all accounts, has been horribly mistreated.” Santos's attorney said he was released from the Federal Correctional Institution in Fairton, New Jersey, on Friday night. The commutation does not expunge Santos's criminal record, but he will not be required to pay over $370,000 in restitution to his victims.Tangle is coming live — this week!We're just a few days away from Tangle News: Live! at the Irvine Barclay Theatre on Friday, October 24 — and I couldn't be more excited.

It's time for episode three of the dragons' spooky season extravaganza and don't be deceived by the title. Folk Magic can go to some pretty dark places... This week, Jules and Madeleine take a look at a magic system that relies on mundane objects and folk knowledge. In fact this type of magic is, on the surface, so mundane that many people would argue that it's more superstition than a magic system. It forms a backbone in many folk horror and dark fantasy stories and even creeps into sci-fi and urban fantasy. So where does the magic of the mundane originate from? What is its logic? And how do you incorporate it in your own world building? On the slab this week - October Daye - Seanan McGuire, Terry Pratchett's Discworld, Practical Magic and many more. Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic
On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard arguments in a case challenging the congressional map Louisiana adopted in 2022, the second time the court has considered the case. The challenge centers on Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act (VRA) of 1965, which prohibits voting laws or districting practices that give members of a racial group less opportunity than others to elect candidates of their choice. During arguments, the court's conservative justices signaled their support for narrowing or overturning Section 2.

Chiles v. Salazar. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a challenge to a Colorado law banning “conversion therapy,” or psychiatric treatment intended to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity, for minors. A majority of justices appeared more sympathetic to the plaintiff, a licensed counselor practicing conversion talk therapy who says the law discriminates against her based on her views.

Back in January, there was a tragic incident where an American Airlines flight collided with a military helicopter near Reagan National Airport in Washington, DC. A few days after the crash, we published a special report on the incident. About a week later, we published a deep dive Friday edition about the crash, trying to make sense of how something like that could happen. And one of the people who I spoke to was David Soucie, who is CNN's air safety analyst. He's a former FAA safety inspector and the author of a book called Safer Skies, which is about the past and the future of airline safety. So overall, he is an expert on these questions. He provided a lot of invaluable insight into the crash when we spoke back in January. But I hadn't heard from him since then. We hadn't had a chance to reconnect. That is until this week when he reached out to me over email to let me know that he had some information about the impact of the government shutdown on the air safety space and the way that it was impacting airlines. So I jumped at the opportunity to speak with him. We had a really interesting conversation about some of the reports that have come out this week of air traffic controllers allegedly taking sick days to get out of work when they're not being paid. And also, more broadly, about whether air safety is actually being impacted by this government shutdown and how it could be impacted if the shutdown continues for days or weeks more. I'm sure this is a topic that's top of mind for anybody who is planning to fly in the near future. But also if you're just somebody who flies in general, David and I talked about some of the changes that have been made to the air safety infrastructure since the DC crash nine months ago, how he feels the overall infrastructure is in the United States right now, and whether the government shutdown could exacerbate any existing issues. So if you've read any of these reports from airports across the country experiencing flight delays and cancellations because of significant air traffic controller shortages, and you've wondered, it safe to fly right now? David offers a great perspective on where we're at and the level of concern that you should have.

Isaac, Ari, and Kmele talk about their optimism with the peace deal in Gaza. Then Isaac puts Kmele in the hot seat and asks him questions about his interview with Megyn Kelly.

A few months ago, two of the most prolific podcasters of all time reached out to me with a simple message: We have an incredible story, and we think your audience at Tangle should hear it.The podcasters, Andy Mills and Matthew Boll, are sharp journalists with an eye for important investigations. Mills is the co-creator of The Daily at The New York Times, the most listened-to news podcast in the world, and he produced the successful limited series Rabbit Hole (on internet algorithms). Boll helped build the podcasting company Gimlet and worked on award-winning podcasts like Crimetown. Together, they created two of my favorite podcasts of the last few years, The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling and the documentary-style podcast Reflector. So when these two guys told me they had a story I'd have to hear to truly understand, my ears perked up. The story is about a debate — the debate of all debates, according to some of our country's smartest people — whose outcome could literally determine the future of the human race: How serious is the threat from artificial intelligence? It turns out the answer to this question is not nearly as straightforward as one might hope. The debate is now setting some of the smartest, wealthiest, and most influential people in the world against each other, with no clear traditional political dividing lines and even less clarity on whose argument might win the day.Since March, Mills and Boll have been investigating this debate along with a team of journalists from their investigative reporting outlet, Longview, including former NPR correspondent and podcast host Gregory Warner. They decided to share their notes, rough cuts, and behind-the-scenes discussions exclusively with our team. It is precisely the kind of balanced, curious reporting we strive to do here at Tangle — peeling back the layers of the biggest stories of our time. Today, we're introducing that story to you, in written form, and in partnership with Longview. We also encourage you to go listen and subscribe to their podcast series, The Last Invention, which is the most riveting deep dive on artificial intelligence that I've come across.

On Wednesday, Israel and Hamas agreed to the first stage of President Donald Trump's plan to end the war in Gaza. Precise details of the agreement are still being worked out, though the initial provisions took shape over night. Under the terms, within 24 hours, Israel will retreat to agreed-upon deployment lines — remaining in control of about half of Gaza; within 72 hours of Israel's retreat, Hamas will release the remaining hostages. Israel will also return a multitude of imprisoned Palestinians, but it reportedly does not intend to release several prominent detainees, including Palestinian leader Marwan BarghoutiTangle LIVE tickets are available!We're excited to announce that our third installment of Tangle Live will be held on October 24, 2025, at the Irvine Barclay Theatre in Irvine, California.

On Friday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said that the United States had struck a small boat in international waters off the coast of Venezuela, killing four people. Hegseth alleged that the boat was operated by the drug cartel Tren de Aragua and was trafficking narcotics to the United States. The strike is the fourth confirmed time the Trump administration has sunk a small craft it alleges was controlled by “narco-terrorists,” including a strike on September 2 that killed 11 and two others on September 15 and September 19.

On Friday, National Review published text messages from former Virginia House of Delegates member Jay Jones (D) sent to a Republican colleague — House Delegate Carrie Coyner — in 2022. In the messages, Jones expresses disdain for Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert (R), then says that he would shoot Gilbert in a hypothetical scenario where he could kill either him or dictators Pol Pot and Adolf Hitler. Jones went on to suggest that he wanted Gilbert's children to die from gun violence because it might prompt the speaker to change his stance on gun control.

In recent weeks, President Donald Trump deployed Illinois National Guard troops to Chicago and attempted to mobilize the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, leading to arrests and clashes with protesters in the cities. In Chicago, hundreds of federal officers carried out a large-scale raid at an apartment building on Tuesday, leading to a reported 37 arrests of alleged unauthorized immigrants. In Portland, a federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration from deploying the Oregon National Guard. Then on Sunday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth called up 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Portland, Chicago, and other cities to support federal agents and protect property.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!You can read today's podcast here, our “Under the Radar” story here and today's “Have a nice day” story here.You can subscribe to Tangle by clicking here or drop something in our tip jar by clicking here.

The first eight months of the second Trump administration have been headlined by several prominent cabinet members: Marco Rubio, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Pete Hegseth, Kristi Noem, Scott Bessent and Pam Bondi, among others. These agency leaders have undertaken wide-ranging initiatives to carry out the president's agenda, drawing regular coverage and analysis of their actions. But other department heads have also been shaping policies, implementing programs, and making consequential decisions — often without the same degree of media attention.Today, we're going to devote a two-part edition to ten Trump administration leaders whose work does not always grab headlines but touches on key issues like agriculture, housing policy, labor, international aid, the environment, and more. In Tangle fashion, we'll give an overview of their core initiatives, what supporters and critics are saying, and the issues we think will define the remainder of their time in office.Ad-free podcasts are here!

On Monday, President Donald Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss a new plan to end the war in Gaza. The president's 20-point proposaloutlines a series of actions to end the war between Israel and Hamas — including Hamas's release of 48 hostages in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners imprisoned by Israel — as well as a demilitarization plan, rebuilding framework, and governance structure for Gaza after the war. Prime Minister Netanyahu has endorsed the plan (though Israel has not officially accepted it), while Hamas has asked for more time to review its provisions.

On Wednesday at 12:01 AM ET, federal funding lapsed, shutting down non-essential government services. The shutdown follows weeks of protracted negotiations between Republicans and Democratic leaders — and President Donald Trump — to pass a bill to extend funding; the sides were unable to reach a deal before the midnight deadline. Democrats conditionedtheir support on extending healthcare subsidies and reversing cuts to Medicaid and other health programs, while Republicans have so far declined to support these changes.

On Sunday, an attacker drove a pickup truck into a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) chapel in Grand Blanc, Michigan, subsequently opening fire on churchgoers and setting the building on fire. At least four people were killed and eight others wounded, and the suspect was killed by law enforcement responding to the scene. Grand Blanc police confirmedMonday afternoon that all churchgoers had been accounted for, and it does not expect to find more victims. Officials have not identified a possible motive for the attack, but local reports and interviews have suggested that the suspect — a 40-year-old former Marine — harbored ill will toward the Church. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating the event as an act of targeted violence.

On Thursday, The U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia announced the indictment of former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey for allegedly false statements he gave during congressional testimony related to the Trump–Russia probe. The indictment includes two counts, which together carry a potential five-year prison sentence. Prosecutors initially considered bringing a third count related to a separate alleged false statement, but that count was rejected by the grand jury. The indictment was filed in Alexandria, Virginia, just before the five-year statute of limitations for Comey's September 2020 testimony was set to expire. Comey is due to be arraigned on October 9.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!You can read today's podcast here, our “Under the Radar” story here and today's “Have a nice day” story here.You can subscribe to Tangle by clicking here or drop something in our tip jar by clicking here.

A revolution is brewing.If it were a pot of water, I'd say it's been on the stove for seven or eight minutes. It's not quite boiling and bubbling and bursting, but the water is hot. The pot is hissing, and the stainless steel is shimmering. It won't be too long before it boils over.Signs of this revolution are everywhere: On the front pages of The New York Times, in niche corners of the internet, among my closest friends and family. It's a backlash, really — one that began quietly and tentatively but is turning thunderous and unapologetic. It's happening in homes, schools, restaurants, the workplace, and at parties.It is a resistance and a genuine dread of just how much time we are all spending in front of our screens. Whatever the latest ubiquitous consumer technology is — and however it's designed to demand we spend more time looking at our phones or computers — we loathe it. We resist our acquiescence to it. This is a new phenomenon. For the last few decades, the dominance of these screen-based consumer technologies has been accelerating exponentially. For a long time, there was no predictable end in sight and very few signs of resistance. Ad-free podcasts are here!

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump delivered an address to the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in New York sharply critical of the international organization and member countries over immigration, climate policy, and other issues. The president also touted his efforts to resolve global conflicts, suggesting that the UN was hindering his push for peace. After his speech, President Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, then posted on Truth Social that he believes Ukraine can win back all of the land taken by Russia since its all-out invasion in 2022.

On Monday, President Donald Trump, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and other Trump administration officials announced a pair of actions the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will take to address the increase in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children. First, the FDA will update the warning labels for acetaminophen — the active ingredient in pain relievers like Tylenol — to note a potential association between the ingredient and neurological conditions — such as ASD and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) — in children (though it also emphasized that no causal link has been established). Second, the agency has initiated the approval of leucovorin calcium tablets for patients with cerebral folate deficiency (CFD).

On Friday, President Donald Trump signed a proclamation adding new requirements for H-1B visas, which grant temporary work authorization to noncitizens in specialty occupations. The new rules compel new applicants to pay $100,000 to apply for the visa (with exceptions granted by the secretary of Homeland Security) and directs the secretary of State to ensure compliance with the new regulations. The $100,000 fee will begin to apply at the start of the next H-1B lottery cycle in March 2026.A new opportunity to engage with us.Do you want to have a say in what we cover, ask questions to be answered in the newsletter, and get the inside scoop on Tangle events?

On Wednesday, ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel's late-night talk show indefinitely in response to comments the host made in his comedy monologue, which discussed the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the political ideology of his suspected shooter. Kimmel's remarks prompted significant backlash from the right and drew a rebuke from Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr, who suggested his agency could take regulatory action against ABC.

I've watched with a lot of interest and trepidation as readers and listeners responded to my initial thoughts on the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Over the last week, while I've been processing the event and its aftermath with the country, I've been poring over that feedback. Some of it was frustrating to read and some of it was compelling; some of it, I thought, merited a response, while other pieces of feedback seemed to stand fairly and well on their own.Today, I'm going to share a wide range of opinions from our audience about Kirk's assassination and my response to it: The criticism, the support, and the unique perspectives.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!You can subscribe to Tangle by clicking here or drop something in our tip jar by clicking here.

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) voted 11–1 to cut interest rates by 0.25% to 4%–4.25%, their first rate cut in nine months. The central bank's policymakers cited the weakening labor market as the basis for the cut but noted that they are still concerned about potential inflation. However, the committee signaled that they are likely to approve two more rate cuts this year.

As the academic year gets underway, a growing number of U.S. states have enacted laws banning or restricting cell phone use in schools. 17 states and Washington, D.C. implemented new rules this year, joining several other states with existing restrictions. Scores of school districts and individual schools have also enacted their own policies. These laws range from incentives for schools to curtail phone use to prohibitions only in classrooms to outright bans for the entire school day, with different rules for different age groups.
