My kids were posing for a picture the other day when the older one, like big siblings since time immemorial, threw up a pair of bunny ears behind his little brother’s head. Or so I thought. “That’s not […] Read more ›

The Democratic Party’s problems have a two-word solution: “economic populism.” Or so suggests much recent commentary (including, to an extent, my own). Yet, the merits of “populist” economic policies depend a lot on how that term is defined. “Populism” is best understood as a rhetorical mode that portrays political life as a conflict between the […] Read more ›

If you’re a parent, you’ve probably grappled with the question of when your kid should get a smartphone. There’s a nationwide movement, Wait Until 8th, that argues that devices should be kept out of kids’ hands until they’re deep into middle school. Some families manage to hold out even longer.

Most Americans still don’t know that alcohol can cause cancer — and the alcohol industry is working hard to make sure it stays that way. For the past three years, the industry, aided by its allies in Congress and later the Trump administration, has sought to discredit and eventually bury a major analysis that offers new […] Read more ›

Democratic strategists think the party has a messaging problem. Post-election autopsies overflowed with countless cross-tabs of how Democrats “underperformed” with demographic after demographic. There are endless debates about which words poll better (should Democrats stop using “microaggression”?) — as if anybody were even listening. Third Way’s “Signal Project” exemplifies this paralysis. The center-left think tank […] Read more ›
