When a president gives a primetime televised speech, it is typically about something of serious import: to make the case for a major new policy or to announce the beginning of a war.

Malaria kills more than a thousand children every day. Measures like antimalarial medications and insecticide-treated bed nets, which stop infected mosquitoes from transmitting the disease-causing parasite to people while they sleep, have saved millions of lives at a relatively low cost. Yet despite these interventions, which reduced mortality by about 29 percent, over 430,000 children […] Read more ›

Donald Trump has never been on better terms with corporate America. Yet his ostensible trade agenda has never been more antithetical to the interests of big business.

Donald J. Trump and JD Vance were officially sworn in as the 47th president and vice president of the United States on Monday, January 20, 2025, in Washington, DC.

When it comes to speeches, there are two Donald Trumps. The first is Teleprompter Trump, who reads a prepared speech and tends to be staid, sleepy, and insincere. The second is Rally Trump, who riffs in front of a cheering crowd and is wild, aggressive, and more true to the person that Trump really is. […] Read more ›

It’s a very cold day in the District of Columbia. The frigid temperatures have prompted the inauguration of Donald Trump and JD Vance to be moved into the US Capitol Rotunda. But that’s not all that’s changed between this day and Trump’s inauguration eight years ago. Trump’s Electoral College victory in 2016 shocked many, including […] Read more ›

Ending birthright citizenship has been on President Donald Trump’s wish list for years, and he’s reportedly expected to issue an executive order doing so in the earliest stages of his presidency.

There’s a dominant narrative in the media about why tech billionaires are sucking up to Donald Trump: Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos, all of whom have descended on the nation’s capital for the presidential inauguration, either happily support or have largely acquiesced to Trump because they think he’ll offer lower taxes and friendlier […] Read more ›

President-elect Donald Trump is set to become President Donald Trump — again. And he’s made a lot of promises about what he’s going to do with his executive power.

How many times a day do you interact with devices? If you’re anything like me, it’s impossible to count. You’re reading this article on a phone or a tablet or a laptop.
