A flesh-eating parasite that the United States spent decades eradicating, and even longer trying to keep at bay, has now shown up in Texas. Federal officials confirmed this week that New World screwworm, a fly whose larvae burrow into living tissue, had been found in a 3-week-old calf in Zavala County in Southwest Texas. It […] Read more ›

I was an English major in college, and my favorite poet was the first-generation Romantic William Wordsworth. For one thing, there’s the name, the best example of nominative determinism in the annals of English literature. But what I most love about Wordsworth is the way he acts as a bridge between the formal, at times […] Read more ›

All nine of the Supreme Court justices are lawyers. All of them have friends and law school classmates in private practice.

For the second time in a year, Elon Musk appears to be trying to bribe voters — and election law experts say it’s probably illegal. Musk offered Thursday to “personally hand over” a total of $2 million to two individuals who have already voted in the closely watched Wisconsin Supreme Court race. (It’s unclear whether […] Read more ›

The buzzword of the past couple of weeks is Abundance, Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson’s new book about why we stopped being able to build things in America and how that’s destroying our country.

Perhaps the biggest common theme of Donald Trump’s second term is that his administration has aggressively used federal power to punish those deemed to be its — or his — enemies. Some foreign students who criticized Israel have had their visas revoked and have been whisked into ICE detention. Venezuelan nationals with tattoos — some […] Read more ›

Earlier this month, Thomas Edsall published a column in the New York Times titled, “Even if the Democrats can move to the center, it may not help.” In it, the eminent political analyst argued that “there is evidence that the process of moderation has the potential to result in unintended adverse consequences.” Edsall was referring […] Read more ›

Washington has been convulsed over the past week by the question of how a prominent journalist was invited into a private Signal chat between senior Trump administration officials over an impending military action and why that conversation was happening on Signal at all. But the actual topic that these officials were discussing — a strike […] Read more ›

President Donald Trump came into office with plans to enact his agenda at breakneck speed, and to some extent, it’s working. Less than 100 days into his second term, Trump has already issued 99 executive orders — a “shock and awe” approach meant to overwhelm his opposition and signal decisive action to his supporters. However, the […] Read more ›

If, on January 19, 2025, a day before Donald Trump’s inauguration, you had asked foreign aid experts, “does the US Agency for International Development (USAID) need reform?” most would have readily said “yes.” Not enough programs are evaluated for effectiveness; too much is run through a small number of private contractors; the foreign aid mission […] Read more ›

A Vox reader asks: How do I know which vitamins and supplements are right/safe for me? I feel inundated by the vitamin craze these days. When I’m scrolling Reddit, I frequently see promotions for the Hims brand that sells pills for erectile dysfunction and hair loss; I guess the algorithm has figured out I’m middle-aged.

Last week, the US Department of Agriculture announced sweeping plans to increase slaughter line speeds at pork and poultry plants — a move that could further endanger workers who already process animals at a breakneck pace and suffer high levels of injury. Workers in poultry plants don’t actually kill the chickens — that task is […] Read more ›

President Donald Trump isn’t a fan of judges who rule against him. During his first term, he famously attacked Judge Amy Berman Jackson, who sentenced his ally and adviser Roger Stone, by saying she was “totally biased” and had “hatred” for both Trump and Stone. Now, Trump has only ratcheted up the attacks on judges. […] Read more ›
