Hello, Redditors. Farah Stockman and David French here! We have been offering commentary on Donald Trump’s intended nominees and appointees for his second-term cabinet, along with discussing foreign policy issues in Ukraine, Taiwan and Korea.

From Farah: I joined The New York Times editorial board in 2020 after covering politics, social movements and race for the national desk. I’ve filed stories from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, South Sudan, Rwanda and Guantánamo Bay. Previously, I spent 16 years at the Boston Globe as a columnist and editorial board member, where I won a Pulitzer Prize for commentary in 2016. I’m the author of the book “American Made: What Happens to People When Work Disappears.”

From David: I joined Times Opinion in 2023 and write about law, culture, religion and armed conflict. A common theme is that I like to explore the story behind the story. What are the reasons for American polarization and dysfunction? Why do so many Americans feel lonely and anxious? Before journalism, I was a commercial litigator and then switched to constitutional law. My most recent book, “Divided We Fall: America’s Secession Threat and How to Restore Our Nation,” outlined the dangers of polarization and the need to engage with people who have opposing viewpoints.

We are excited to answer your queries starting at 1 p.m. E.T. on Tuesday, Dec. 17.
