Isaac writes about: Politics, Society

Isaac Saul is a politics reporter and the founder of Tangle, an independent, subscriber-supported, non-partisan politics newsletter that summarizes the best arguments from the left and right on the news of the day. Tangle has been recognized by The New York Times, Forbes, The Hustle, Substack and many others as one of the most successful politics newsletters on the internet.

Saul has lived, studied, traveled and written all over the US, Canada, China, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Singapore, and Thailand, among others. After finishing college, Saul helped build A Plus, a solutions journalism media outlet, alongside actor and entrepreneur Ashton Kutcher. He worked as an editor and politics reporter for A Plus while freelancing all over. His work has been published in TIME magazine, Vox, Independent Journal Review, The New York Daily News, HuffPost, and The Forward, while his reporting has been cited by Fox News, Wikileaks, The New York Times, and The Washington Post.

In 2016, Yahoo News named Saul one of the 16 people whose writing shaped the 2016 election. In 2020, Forbes magazine called him one of the 1,000 “upstart entrepreneurs redefining the American dream.”

The better we understand politics, the easier it is for us to change how the government is impacting our lives.
