If you’ve been following Eric Adams’s mayoralty, you probably know that he is very active in New York’s nightlife. That, as Nate Freeman [writes]( in a meaty profile, is thanks in part to Scott Sartiano, owner of Zero Bond, an exclusive NoHo social club where celebrities such as Adams, Taylor Swift, and Elon Musk have been spotted blowing off steam. Sartiano tells Freeman how he got his start in the club scene and why Zero Bond’s privacy policies make entry so coveted. “The people that are there on a daily basis, you never read about what they eat, who they’re with,” he says. “That’s something I’m very proud of.” Elsewhere, as Donald Trump’s hush money trial exposes more about his sordid relationship with the National Enquirer, Molly Jong-Fast [contends]( that his attacks on the fourth estate could be seen as confessions of his own media misdeeds. “Projection,” she writes, “has long been Donald Trump’s superpower.” Plus, Levin [throws shade]( at Marjorie Taylor Greene for forging ahead with her attention-seeking effort to vacate House Speaker Mike Johnson.
