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.

How many people are living in poverty in America? It depends on whom you ask. If it’s the US Census, the answer would be somewhere around 37 million people. But that number doesn’t necessarily capture everyone who might be considered poor, because measuring poverty largely depends on how we define it. And some definitions, including […] Read more ›

The Palisades and Eaton fires in Los Angeles have destroyed over 10,000 structures — homes, businesses, and everything inside from bathroom cleaner to electrical wiring. Naturally, people in the Los Angeles area are reaching for their phones to see what the Air Quality Index (AQI) says about the air around them.

President-elect Donald Trump’s first term is expected to start with a flurry of executive orders, starting shortly after he’s sworn in. Exactly what those orders will contain is hard to know for sure right now.

Joe Biden has had a rough go of things. He leaves the presidency with the worst end-of-first-term approval rating of any president since Jimmy Carter; 55.8 percent of Americans disapprove of his job performance and only 37.1 percent approve, as of Friday. Biden’s legacy will take years to sort out, and I certainly think he […] Read more ›

It is often said that climate disasters are great equalizers. They rip through neighborhoods, rich and poor, devastating communities and upending lives without discriminating between them. But it is, of course, not that simple. As the wildfires blaze through Southern California, class divides are as evident as ever. It is true that even the rich […] Read more ›

The TikTok ban seems imminent. The Supreme Court on Friday upheld a law that would spell the end of TikTok as we know it in the United States, and now all parties involved are freaking out. Influencers are fleeing to rival platforms, including Xiaohongshu, a China-based app also known as RedNote. Politicians, even the ones […] Read more ›

Three days before leaving office, President Joe Biden has made a surprising announcement: He declared that a decades-old proposed Constitutional amendment enshrining equal rights on the basis of sex is now “the law of the land.” Except it isn’t. A senior administration official told CNN that Biden was not taking executive action but merely “stating […] Read more ›

On Friday, President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of nearly 2,500 people who had been convicted of nonviolent drug offenses — setting the record for issuing more individual pardons or commutations than any other US president. Biden in December also commuted the sentences of 1,500 people who had been released from prison during the pandemic […] Read more ›

On Friday, the Supreme Court unanimously upheld a federal law that effectively bans the social media app TikTok in the United States, unless the platform’s China-based owner sells TikTok. Though Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Neil Gorsuch disagreed somewhat with the unsigned majority opinion’s rationale, no justice dissented. It’s also worth noting that all three of […] Read more ›

TikTok’s future in the US has perhaps never been in more doubt than it is right now. Since its introduction to the US in 2018, the short-form video app has been fighting increased scrutiny from US lawmakers about its ties to ByteDance, the Chinese company that owns it.

TikTok has only been around in the US since August 2018, but it’s become the defining social media app of Gen Z. The app once known as Musical.ly was bought by the Beijing-based internet company ByteDance in 2017.

Wildfires are on the mind here in California. It’s still not clear exactly to what degree the devastating Los Angeles fires were the product of gross mismanagement by the city and state governments, with lots of new details still emerging about the steps they could have taken and didn’t. It’s abundantly clear that the city […] Read more ›

One of the main reasons Vice President Kamala Harris lost the election is the Biden administration’s record on immigration and the border — polls show it ranks up close with inflation among the top issues that drove swing voters to Trump. And the recriminations about how Democrats got so out of step with the public […] Read more ›
