Gaslit NationTEASER - Art is Survival: Churchill the ArtistGreat Britain was woefully unprepared when Hitler's Nazis invaded nearly half of Europe. As the country faced the relentless terror of the Blitz—where cities were bombed like Ukraine is being bombed today by Putin—Churchill was tasked with turning the tide.

In our ongoing discussion, Robert Schmuhl, author of Mr. Churchill in the White House, explores how painting was a profound source of solace and strength for Churchill. This personal outlet helped shape his leadership during Europe's darkest hour, influencing the...2024-12-2817 minGaslit NationSelf-Care with Churchill and FDRSelf-care is an act of resistance, especially when the fate of the free world depends on you.

The Ezra Klein ShowWhat Pete Buttigieg Learned Playing JD VanceAmerica has become increasingly polarized when it comes to trust. Voters who distrust the system — who see institutions as corrupt and are prone to conspiracy theories — have long existed on the far left and far right. But Donald Trump seems to have sparked a realignment, what the writer Matthew Yglesias calls “the crank realignment.” The G.O.P. is now the political home of the distrustful, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Trump endorsement was a clear sign of these changing times.In 2020, Pete Buttigieg wrote a book on trust in politics. And he’s been persistent in making th...2024-09-2459 min

Speaking of WritersRobert Schmuhl- Mr. Churchill in The White HouseScores of biographies have been written about Winston Churchill, yet none examine his frequent, sometimes furtive, trips to the White House, where he resided for weeks on end—the (often unclothed) visitor who “dropped out of the sky.”
Drawing on years of research, Robert Schmuhl not only contextualizes the days Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Dwight D. Eisenhower spent together, but also vividly portrays the individual characters, from Churchill himself—a devoted fisherman who never stopped “angling”—to a resentful Eleanor Roosevelt. MR. CHURCHILL IN THE WHITE HOUSE is an illuminating portrait of these spirited, even entertaining occasions which took on a new...2024-08-3125 min
