A very dangerous 24 hours in the Middle East

Over the past few months, events in the Middle East have been giving the world a crash course in escalation management — or, more accurately, the failure to manage escalation.  Despite the ongoing carnage in Gaza, the region is not quite in the state of all-out war that many have feared since last October. But […] Read more ›

The Kamala Harris identity debate shows how America still struggles to talk about multiracial people

Editors note: In July 2024, while speaking at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) conference, former President Donald Trump questioned Vice President Kamala Harris’s racial identity, saying: “She was always of Indian heritage.

Would picking Josh Shapiro actually help Harris in Pennsylvania?

Kamala Harris has reportedly narrowed her list of potential running mates down to three: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro. All these contenders have their upsides.

Africa is beating HIV. But the rest of the world is falling behind.

More than a million people were newly infected with HIV last year, adding to the nearly 40 million people currently living with the disease. But for the first time since 1981, when the disease first emerged, the majority of new HIV infections occurred outside of sub-Saharan Africa.  That’s a major milestone. The region — which […] Read more ›

Are we really in a “new Cold War” with China?

If there’s one thing politicians in Washington can agree on these days, it’s that competition with China will be the defining issue in US foreign policy and defense for years to come.

Ruthless “cop” or “soft on crime”? Kamala Harris’s record as prosecutor, explained.

When Kamala Harris ran for president in 2020, her critics from the left argued that her record as a prosecutor was out of line with where the Democratic Party should be headed, especially after movements like Black Lives Matter turned the country’s attention to racism in law enforcement. She was too tough on crime during […] Read more ›

The short shelf-life of the White House tell-all

In 1974, after two years of “knocking on doors” and reporting the facts, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein published their debut book, All the President’s Men, condensing the Watergate scandal into something more gripping and galvanizing than any of their articles could manage: a thriller.  And theirs was a hit. All the President’s Men brought […] Read more ›

Project 2025: The myths and the facts

In talk about what a second presidential term for Donald Trump might bring, one name has become the shorthand for all the horrifying things that might await: Project 2025.  It’s been called “authoritarian” and “dystopian.” It’s the talk of TikTok.
