Another One Gone: On Sebastian Smeeâs Layoff from âThe Washington Postâ
Last week, Jeff Bezosâ Washington Post announced that the paper is cutting about 30% of its staff, including more than 300 journalists from its approximately 800-person newsroom. Clearly, there is much to lament: Both the paperâs sports and books sections have been eliminated. The staff photography team, which in many ways is the heart of a major newspaperâs identity and visual sensibility, has also been zeroed. This seems to be the natural conclusion for that department â Marvin Joseph, who was a photographer at the paper for almost 30 years, said that when he started his tenure there were around 35 photogs on staff. At the time of the cuts, that number had been reduced to eight.Â
And thatâs not all. Along with the above came cuts to international bureaus, a complete dismissal of the paperâs Middle East journalists, and a newly shrunken metro section. One reporter was apparently laid off while working in Ukraine, a war zone, and another was sacked while in Italy on Olympics duty. (This reporter is protesting, saying that they will continue to file stories.)Â

A less resounding, underexposed part of the cuts, in mainstream publications, at least, is the layoff of The Postâs cultural critics: Michael Andor Brodeur, who covered classical music; Naveen Kumar, the publicationâs theater critic; and Jada Yuan, who was part of The Postâs style section. Yuan posted a tearful video to Instagram, in which she notes, âarts coverage that doesnât involve Trump has been eliminated.âÂ
According to reporting from Hyperallergic, âSenior Art and Architecture Critic Philip Kennicott will remain on staff, as will two arts reporters, Janay Kingsberry and Kelsey Ables, and National Arts Reporter Geoff Edgers.â But visual art criticism ultimately wasnât spared: The Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Sebastian Smee, who had been at the paper for eight years, was let go.
When those of us invested in art writing, in the proliferation of criticism throughout an art community, talk about inflection points, this is the type of moment we mean. With millions in audience and reach, legacy magazines and newspapers like The Post are the last bastions of art writing in mainstream media. And now, as budgets are sliced all the way down to the bone, and also as critics age out, their positions are falling by the wayside. For example: Christopher Knight retired from the Los Angeles Times, but the paper has yet to announce who will be taking over as art critic; Jackson Arn, Peter Schjeldahlâs successor, lost his New Yorker job 11 months ago and, to my knowledge, has not been replaced. Holland Cotterâs bio still says he is the âco-chief art criticâ at the New York Times, but I donât know who his co is, as Roberta Smith is now retired. Or, more locally â Molly Glentzerâs beat at the Houston Chronicle hasnât been properly taken up since she stepped down five years ago.Â
In many ways, pining that a legacy paper will have just one full-fledged critic on staff feels like a nominal ask â while the rest of the newsroom is fighting over yards, we just want half of half of an inch. And while Iâm aware that art criticism isnât the be-all and end-all of the world, or even of journalism, employing a single full-time critic has potential to make an outsized impact on the paperâs readers and the way (and perspective from which) it covers contemporary life and culture.Â
This might not be overt in Smeeâs writing. He wasnât writing about Trump iconography like Carolina A. Miranda (who herself only occasionally writes for The Post after having been ousted from the LA Times), or the reconsideration of monuments and the Presidentâs construction projects, like Philip Kennicott, who is keeping his job. Instead, Smee opted for a more delicate, measured form of criticism, which often looks close and considers smartly. You can tell by reading him that he loves both art and writing â his extensive output made that clear. His âGreat Works, In Focusâ series took him around to museums across the U.S., a national spotlight on pockets of creativity housed in corners of the country. This, a fitting mandate for a critic working at a paper headquartered in our nationâs capital.Â
If Smee was let go because his writing âdoesnât deal withâ our contemporary times, because the paper feels that criticism of art is unimportant, expendable, then their shortsightedness is expected, but still shocking. The sustaining power of art and the way it changes in and responds to our world, when it is engaged with by contemporary humans, is as relevant and political (albeit sometimes subtly) as you can get. One criticâs job to cover and respond to the explicit moves of a political administration (Kennicottâs architecture writing) needs to live in symbiosis with criticism that is looking back to look forwards. Smeeâs writing isnât just responsive to whatâs happening now â instead, it has a longer view of our collective history.Â
If Smee, a Pulitzer and Rabkin Prize-winning author and career art critic, canât make it, what does that mean for us as readers, as audiences, as citizens? Weâre poorer for it. And while we can get into arguments about budget cuts, readership, profit margins, the use of AI, the open secret of how no one really reads art writing (comparatively), etc., to me, all of this is extraneous to the civic duty our most important publications have to document, record, respond to, and preserve all elements of whatâs happening right now. To be a primary source for future generations.Â
When media outlets excise coverage of literature, sports, international affairs, local affairs, and art from that picture, weâre left with gaping, in-credible holes. Moreover, it impacts the long haul: What we (and our larger power structures and institutions) collectively shine a light on and invest in dictates our values as a society. Leisure, pleasure, recreation, local involvement, and being a citizen of the world are essential elements of a life lived. The Post cut coverage related to all of these. I donât know how we compensate or recover. So the motto goes, âDemocracy Dies in Darkness.â
Myriad publications, like the one youâre reading now, are independently picking up the pieces in all of their own regions, trying to patch the localized cracks. Will our individual work rebuild the collective dam? And will our legacy institutions ever resume their larger duty of not only political, but also social and cultural responsibility? Only time will tell. Â

FBI Announces They Have Located Savannah Guthrie
WASHINGTONâPraising the tireless efforts of the hundreds of agents who worked around the clock on the case, FBI director Kash Patel announced Friday that after almost two anguishing weeks, Savannah Guthrie had at last been located. âThis morning before dawn, a hostage rescue team stormed a New York City townhouse and freed Savannah, who miraculously did not appear to be injured or even malnourished in any way,â said Patel, adding that cooperation from state and local law enforcement had been instrumental in leaving no stone unturned in the search for the missing Today show anchor. âAnalysis of thousands of hours of recent footage positioned her repeatedly at NBC Studios at Rockefeller Center in Manhattan, and we were able to further pinpoint her whereabouts with the help of many, many ordinary Americans who called our tip line to report seeing her enter and exit the building where she was eventually found. I wish we had rescued her sooner, of course, but at least we can all celebrate this happy ending today.â Patel added that he had not yet spoken with Guthrie but assumed she was recovering from her ordeal with her husband, Michael, her two children, and her mother, Nancy.

Roses are red, violets are blue, some Valentineâs storms are in Houstonâs view
In brief: We expect some showers and thunderstorms on Saturday in Houston, a couple of which could be on the stronger side. Outside of that, we have nice weather to close the weekend, and another warming trend in store next week.
Got Valentineâs (or anti-Valentineâs) Day plans on Saturday? Be sure to include an umbrella as part of your fancy attire. Weâve got the details on some storms this weekend.
Today
Keep your eyes open for fog this morning. Itâs a prevalent pest across the southeast half of the area, and itâs locally dense in spots. It will slowly lift through morning, but fog may cling to Galveston Island or around the bay for much of Friday. Otherwise, itâll be warm and humid today with highs in the 70s to near 80 inland and cooler at the coast.
Saturday
Through midday Saturday, all looks well. A few sprinkles or showers, as well as some continued fog is a possibility but otherwise itâll be fine. Round one of showers or a few thunderstorms may arrive around mid to late afternoon. None of these are expected to be significant. Itâs the second round that arrives in the evening, probably between 6 and 10 PM or so that may have some noisy, stronger storms.
The entire region is carpeted in a marginal risk, level 1/5, for severe weather tomorrow, which generally means lower-end coverage of severe storms. Many locations will hear thunder, but only one or two may see a severe storm with gusty winds. Storms should exit the coast around or before midnight, ending any severe threat, The chance of a severe storm may be highest north of I-10 tomorrow.
In addition, some locally heavy rain is likely tomorrow, with a few spots perhaps seeing 2 inches of rain, while others see a quarter inch. Basically, have an umbrella, and if you hear thunder, retreat to a safe indoor location.

Otherwise, look for clouds, some sun, and some fog with highs in the 70s.
Sunday & Washingtonâs Birthday
We should clear out and have a picture-perfect Sunday and Presidentsâ Day Monday. Sunday looks glorious with sunshine and highs in the low-70s, although a bit on the breezy side at times with north winds gusting to 20 to 25 mph or so. Monday morning will start in the 40s and 50s, warming into the 70s again with pleasant humidity and sunshine.
Rest of next week
To be honest, next week looks a bit like this week, with temps warming up again into the 80s probably, along with slowly building humidity. We will probably see our next front sometime near next weekend or just beyond. Timing is suspect right now. That next front could have a tinge more punch of cooler air behind it, but nothing like a freeze or anything.

Bondi Spying On Congressional Epstein Searches Should Be A Major Scandal
Yesterday, Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared before the House Judiciary Committee. Among the more notable exchanges was when Rep. Pramila Jayapal asked some of Jeffrey Epsteinâs victims who were in the audience to stand up and indicate whether Bondiâs DOJ had ever contacted them about their experiences. None of them had heard from the Justice Department. Bondi wouldnât even look at the victims as she frantically flipped through her prepared notes.
And thatâs when news organizations, including Reuters, caught something alarming: one of the pages Bondi held up clearly showed searches that Jayapal herself had done of the Epstein files:
A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congressâs searches of the unredacted Epstein files.Just wow.
â Christopher Wiggins (@cwnewser.bsky.social) 2026-02-11T23:06:45.578Z
The Department of Justiceâled by an Attorney General who is supposed to serve the public but has made clear her only role is protecting Donald Trumpâs personal interestsâis actively surveilling what members of Congress are searching in the Epstein files. And then bringing that surveillance data to a congressional hearing to use as political ammunition.
This should be front-page news. It should be a major scandal. Honestly, it should be impeachable.
There is no legitimate investigative purpose here. No subpoena. Nothing at all. Just the executive branch tracking the oversight activities of the legislative branch, then weaponizing that information for political culture war point-scoring. The DOJ has no business whatsoever surveilling what members of Congressâwho have oversight authority over the Justice Departmentâare searching.
Jayapal is rightly furious:
Pam Bondi brought a document to the Judiciary Committee today that had my search history of the Epstein files on it. The DOJ is spying on members of Congress. Itâs a disgrace and I wonât stand for it.
â Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (@jayapal.house.gov) 2026-02-12T01:14:57.174494904Z
Weâve been here before. Way back in 2014, the CIA illegally spied on searches by Senate staffers who were investigating the CIAâs torture program. It was considered a scandal at the timeâbecause it was one. The executive branch surveilling congressional oversight is a fundamental violation of separation of powers. Itâs the kind of thing that, when it happens, should trigger immediate consequences.
And yet.
Just a few days ago, Senator Lindsey Grahamâwho has been one of the foremost defenders of government surveillance for yearsâblew up at a Verizon executive for complying with a subpoena that revealed Grahamâs call records (not the contents, just the metadata) from around January 6th, 2021.
âIf the shoe were on the other foot, itâd be front-page news all over the world that Republicans went after sitting Democratic senatorsâ phone records,â said Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who was among the Republicans in Congress whose records were accessed by prosecutors as they examined contacts between the president and allies on Capitol Hill.
âI just want to let you know,â he added, âI donât think I deserve what happened to me.â
This is the same Lindsey Graham who, over a decade ago, said he was âgladâ that the NSA was collecting his phone records because it magically kept him safe from terrorists. But now heâs demanding hundreds of thousands of dollars for being âspiedâ on (he wasnâtâa company complied with a valid subpoena in a legitimate investigation, which is how the legal system is supposed to work).
So hereâs the contrast: Graham is demanding money and media attention because a company followed the law. Meanwhile, the Attorney General is actually surveilling a Democratic member of Congressâs oversight activitiesâwith no legal basis whatsoeverâand using that surveillance for political theater in a manner clearly designed as a warning shot to congressional reps investigating the Epstein Files. Pam Bondi wants you to know sheâs watching you.
Graham claimed that if the shoe were on the other foot, it would be âfront-page news all over the world.â Well, Senator, hereâs your chance. The shoe is very much on the other foot. Itâs worse than what happened to you, because what happened to you was legal and appropriate, and whatâs happening to Jayapal is neither.
But we all know Graham wonât speak out against this administration. Heâs had nearly a decade to show whether or not the version of Lindsey Graham who said âif we elected Donald Trump, we will get destroyed⊠and we will deserve itâ still exists, and itâs clear that Lindsey Graham is long gone. This one only serves Donald Trump and himself, not the American people.
But this actually matters: if the DOJ can surveil what members of Congress search in oversight filesâand then use that surveillance as a weapon in public hearingsâcongressional oversight of the executive branch is dead. Thatâs the whole point of separation of powers. The people who are supposed to watch the watchmen canât do their jobs if the watchmen are surveilling them.
And remember: Bondi didnât hide this. She brought it to the hearing. She held it up when she knew cameras would catch what was going on. She wanted Jayapalâand every other member of Congressâto see exactly what sheâs doing.
This administration doesnât fear consequences for this kind of vast abuse of power because there havenât been any. And the longer that remains true, the worse itâs going to get.
Remember the Alamo Drafthouse?
my boss thinks our obnoxious coworker is funny, medical tech proselytized to me, and more
Itâs four answers to four questions. Here we goâŠ
1. A medical tech repeatedly proselytized to me
An experience I had recently with a medical provider has me wondering if what I felt to be inappropriate and unprofessional is a behavior worth raising with my doctor, who owns the practice.
I live in area of the south where most people assume that everyone is Christian and believes in God â the kind of place where wishing someone âHappy Holidaysâ is likely to result in a tonally aggressive reply of âMerry Christmas.â Usually I let religious speak in various businesses just roll off me.
I recently underwent TMS treatment for chronic, major depression. As part of that, I received 36 treatments that required me to go to my psychiatristâs office every weekday for five-minute sessions with one of the techs. Early in the treatment, the tech would reference God and how he helped her, and I just let it ride and wouldnât engage. But by the final two weeks, she escalated to asking me about my own beliefs. I eventually told her Iâm not religious. She spent the next few sessions telling me that if I would just let God into my life, that would make all the difference. I expressed discomfort with the topic (clearly and directly), but she persisted.
So my question is whether this is worth mentioning to the psychiatrist on my next visit. This is most definitely not a religiously-affiliated practice. Part of me feels terrible about the idea of getting her in trouble. I do believe she meant well. Plus, I have to go to the office every few months and will likely encounter her as she is in the front office when not administering treatments. So that could be awkward. But Iâm also highly annoyed that I was repeatedly proselytized to while essentially a captive audience. What do you think? Would you want this behavior reported to you if it were your employee?
Without any doubt whatsoever, I would strongly want to know about it! In fact, I would be horrified if I found out this had been going on and no one had told me. Hopefully your doctor feels the same way.
The tech is representing the medical practice and the doctor; sheâs not there to proselytize, and youâre not there to be proselytized to. It would be wildly inappropriate under any circumstances, but the fact that she persisted after you asked her to stop makes it even worse.
Tell your doctor what happened. Say it was frequent and persistent, and she didnât stop after you asked her to, and say that you donât come there to be proselytized at.
2. My boss thinks our obnoxious, racist coworker is funny
My workplace has become increasingly toxic due to poor management and enabling of inappropriate behavior. Our manager is a bully who operates by singling out team members while cultivating favorites and gossiping about colleagues. Her current favorite is Ryan, a 25-year-old man in his first professional role who has been with the team for two years. While Ryan is fundamentally a nice person, he lacks professional maturity. The rest of the team consists of women at least twice his age, some of whom actively encourage his behavior because they want to be in his good graces.
Because Ryan is protected by our manager, he faces no consequences for increasingly disruptive behavior:
* Constant crude humor (fart jokes throughout the day)
* Physical pranks (lowering colleaguesâ chairs while theyâre working)
* Graphic discussions of his sex life
* Showing explicit images to female colleagues
* Making racist and anti-immigrant commentsWhen Iâve tried to address this, some colleagues tell me Iâm being âuptightâ and that he âimproves the vibe.â Our manager witnesses much of this behavior and either laughs along or gives him minimal warnings. Iâm concerned that making a formal complaint will result in workplace retaliation, both from the manager and from colleagues who see Ryan as popular.
How can I professionally address his behavior without isolating myself or becoming a target?
Howâs your HR? Ideally youâd report whatâs happening to HR (meaning both Ryan and your manager) and specifically say that youâre concerned about retaliation from your manager and coworkers for reporting it, and ask them to take clear steps to ensure that doesnât happen. Legally, theyâre obligated to do that; permitting a manager to retaliate against an employee for making a good-faith report of harassment or discrimination is illegal â and employment lawyers will tell you that retaliation can be a lot easier to prove than harassment or discrimination is. But companies break the law in this area all the time, so youâd want to have some idea of how your companyâs HR handles things.
If HR isnât an option, the other option is to call it out in the moment and not be deterred by coworkers saying youâre too uptight. Sample language:
* âI donât want to hear about your sex life. Please stop talking about it.â
* âDonât use language like that around me.â
* âThatâs an awful thing to say.â
* âYou could hurt someone doing that, and youâre putting the company at legal risk.â
* âIf you show me photos like that again, Iâll ask HR to tell you to stop.â
* âThis is getting really boring.â
But thereâs no way to push back on Ryan that guarantees you wonât become a target yourself, particularly with the sort of manager you described. Can you work on getting out of there?
For what itâs worth, Iâm pretty skeptical that Ryan is a nice person.

3. When the reference-checker is an employee I fired
At a former job, two employees on my team were Philip and Elizabeth. Elizabethâs work was okay, but she was a toxic personality and I ended up terminating her employment. (There is of course more to this story but it isnât relevant to my question.) Philip and Elizabeth were peers and I believe got on fine. Philip was a great employee. He and I have since also both left for other companies.
Philip reached out asking me to be a reference for a new job, and I am very happy to do so. However I just heard from the recruiter with his potential new employer and the person they want to set me up to talk about Philip with is Elizabeth, who now works there. I fired her not quite two years ago, and I absolutely do not want to talk to her. Nor can I imagine sheâd want to talk to me. And I donât want to harm Philipâs chances. He knows I fired Elizabeth but not any specifics.
What do I do? Iâm leaning toward telling the recruiter Iâm happy to recommend Philip but Elizabeth and I have a negative history. But obviously this employer must like Elizabeth so Iâm concerned anything I say will reflect badly on Philip. Tell Philip he should find another reference? Help!
I agree with your instincts! Tell the recruiter that you enthusiastically recommend Philip but that you have a complicated history with Elizabeth, having worked together in the past, and so you wonder if thereâs someone else there who you could offer the reference to instead.
If the recruiter says Elizabeth is the only option â well, ideally youâd suck it up and do it ⊠but if you think thatâs likely to harm Philipâs chances, then at that point you should lay it out for him and ask how heâd like to handle it. Sample language for that: âIâm happy to give anyone who asks a glowing reference for you but, between the two of us, thereâs some tension between Elizabeth and me, and I donât want that to hurt your chances at this job. Would you like me to go ahead and talk to her, or would you rather give them someone else to speak to?â
4. Does âdonât take a counterofferâ apply when both offers are internal?
I really appreciated the post that gathered all of your advice on counter offers together in one place! Iâve been curious whether your advice changes when the second offer is an internal one?
How do you approach things when youâve been holding out for and/or been promised a promotion or a new role
thatâs taking forever to materialize â but accepting an interview (or getting an offer, keep your fingers crossed for me!) in another department gets your current leader to make the dangled promised position materialize? Do the same principles apply as when itâs two companies vying for you?
A lot of the same principles apply: you still want to ask yourself why it took you being ready to leave for your manager to get it together for you, and whether itâll be a similar battle to get other things youâve earned in the future. And the same caveats apply about making sure theyâre really going to follow through on their promises, not resume dragging their feet once the immediate crisis of you leaving is averted. The piece that can be different is that your company is less likely to see you as âdisloyalâ (a ridiculous concept regardless) â but you should weight the other factors pretty heavily.

Pitchers And Catchers Report To Spring Training Dance
FORT MYERS, FLâArriving in their nicest cleats, freshly oiled gloves, and carefully applied eye black in hopes of dazzling their coaches and peers, Major League Baseball pitchers and catchers reported to the annual Spring Training Dance Friday, marking the official return of baseball ahead of full-squad workouts later this month. Witnesses confirmed players filed into the gymnasium with a mix of nerves and excitement, sipping Gatorade from champagne flutes beneath a large, glittering baseball that rotated above the dance floor while DJ-commissioner Rob Manfred played classic stadium tunes like âDE-FENSEâ and âMexican Hat Danceâ to set the mood. Several reports indicated that players initially mingled in familiar groups on opposite ends of the gym, with giggly pitchers exchanging bashful glances across the room at catchers, who responded by coyly flashing pitch signs and blushing beneath their masks. The vibe in the room eased, witnesses confirmed, when the lights dimmed and the ceremonial first dance began. Red Sox southpaw Garrett Crochet and Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman reportedly met in the middle of the room for a slow waltz set to âTake Me Out To The Ball Game,â prompting the rest of the players to join them. Umpires served as dutiful chaperones as players cut loose, with pitchers performing elaborate windups to the music and catchers maintaining their squatting posture while waddling around in slow, rhythmic steps. As the evening concluded, sources said, players gathered and waited with bated breath for the announcement of the Spring Training Dance MVP, the crown ultimately being awarded to Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto. According to sources, the event then concluded with players sitting down and doing cooldown stretches before being ordered to return to their hotel rooms to ice, hydrate, and unwind from a magical night on the dance floor.
