AT THE 'APEX OF POWER'

ONE BY ONE, THEY ALL TRICKLED INTO THE WALNUT-paneled Mansfield Room. Donald Trump had just made another improbable return: his first visit to the U.S. Capitol since a mob of his supporters stormed the building on Jan. 6, 2021. Now, just days away from reclaiming power, the President-elect was there to meet with the 52 Republican Senators of the 119th Congress about advancing his legislative agenda: a massive border-security package, extending his 2017 tax cuts, and dispensing with the debt ceiling.

After more than an hour of wrangling over strategy, Senator Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia tried to wrap things up, according to one of the GOP Senators present. “Sir,” she told Trump, “I want to respect your time and get you out of here so you can move on to your other commitments.” Trump raised his eyebrows and interjected. “I have no other commitments,” he said. “This is my legacy.” The Jan. 8 meeting lasted nearly another hour.

Love Story tries too hard to be The Crown for America

IF THE KENNEDYS ARE THE CLOSEST THING AMERICA has to a royal family, then Carolyn Bessette Kennedy was our Princess Diana. Like her British counterpart, she was an outsider—albeit a beautiful, stylish, blond, privileged one—to the palace intrigue that consumed the family she married into. She was stalked by paparazzi and alternately worshipped and vilified. And then she died, in her mid-30s, in a horrible accident, only to have her legacy dissected for decades to come. We never let either woman rest in peace.
