The outcome in Trump v. Slaughter, which the Supreme Court will hear on Monday, December 8, could not be more preordained. Slaughter involves a struggle over presidential power that has animated many prominent Republican lawyers and judges since the 1980s.

Donating money isn’t the only way you can help people. You can also give your blood. Of the approximately 62 percent of Americans eligible to donate blood, only 3 percent do so each year.

President Donald Trump has been walking a fine line when it comes to H-1B visas — the visa that high-skill foreign professionals apply for to work in the US. These visas often go to physicians, software developers, engineers, university professors, and other specialty professions.

One source of good news — favored both by me and, apparently, venture capitalists — is what’s known as a “narrative violation.” A narrative violation occurs when everyone thinks one thing, but the actual evidence suggests the opposite. And few narratives are more persistently violated than one common belief: “Violent crime is always going up.” A 2023 […] Read more ›

As the price of almost everything has increased, and American workers’ wages have all but stalled, politicians like President Donald Trump have tried to ease our minds by telling us that the economy is “doing great” and that the stock market is booming. “Record high, record high, record high,” Trump said at an event earlier […] Read more ›

Editor’s note: This story was originally published on November 22, 2023, and reflects events that took place that year. We’re republishing it in its original form for this year’s Thanksgiving week.

A cuddly animal wearing a beanie should not incite violence. And yet, this is what occurred in some Starbucks shops earlier this month after the coffee chain released a limited line of teddy bear-shaped tumblers as a part of their holiday merchandise. The “Bearista” cup, which was originally sold in South Korea and retails for […] Read more ›

President Donald Trump has been trying to use the Department of Justice as his personal law firm. Under Trump’s DOJ, cases are dropped for personal political reasons or built without evidence. The DOJ has also sought to prosecute Trump’s adversaries and political foes, including James Comey, the former FBI director, and Letitia James, the New […] Read more ›

The most recent jobs numbers paint a pretty grim picture of the labor market and the apparent havoc AI is wreaking on it. After warnings about unemployment among recent grads earlier this year, the newest report suggests that AI’s impact is reaching a broader group of workers. There were over 150,000 layoffs in October, which […] Read more ›

If you’re arrested in America for a minor charge — say, for speeding or loitering — the punishment from the legal system might end up being the least of your worries. You might wake up a few months later and see your arrest, filmed through a police body camera, with a million views on TikTok […] Read more ›

Today, tens of millions of Americans will partake in a national ritual many of us say we don’t especially enjoy or find meaning in. We will collectively eat more than 40 million turkeys — factory farmed and heavily engineered animals that bear scant resemblance to the wild birds that have been apocryphally written into the […] Read more ›

When it comes to the holidays, we all have different traditions. But there does seem to be one commonality when it comes to Thanksgiving: feeling absolutely terrible after working your way through the turkey and all those sides. It’s a state that Dr. Trisha Pasricha is familiar with. She’s a gastroenterologist, and she runs a […] Read more ›

The 28-point peace plan is now a 19-point peace plan. President Donald Trump says the plan for ending Russia’s war in Ukraine that was presented to Kyiv last week, and was so heavily tilted toward Russia’s demands that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called it “one of most difficult moments in our history,” has been “fine-tuned” after […] Read more ›

For the first time in history, the pope is an American — from Chicago, no less. And like many Americans, Pope Leo XIV seems to love a good yap. Whether it concerns President Donald Trump’s immigration policies or the use of artificial intelligence in popular entertainment, Leo has not been shy about expressing his views (he […] Read more ›

Too often, they are married off before finishing school, become mothers before they reach adulthood, and spend their lives being dependent […] Read more ›

Thanksgiving didn’t happen the way a lot of us probably have learned it did back in elementary school. Kindergarteners in problematic construction paper headdresses, playacting with fifth graders in black hats and buckle shoes, holding hands and giving thanks for a plentiful harvest and new friends. Those pageants we performed in were inaccurate. The Wampanoag […] Read more ›
