When the topic is immigrants or Democratic cities, President Donald Trump loves to talk about crime. But when it comes to Wall Street bankers and C-suite executives, he tends to keep his mouth shut. Within the first 100 days of his second term, Trump pardoned a slew of financial fraudsters. And in February, he signed […] Read more ›

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Jessica DeFino transformed my relationship with skincare. After reading her newsletter, The Review of Beauty, I started questioning the purported “anti-aging” benefits of the products I was putting on my face and asked myself what it meant to buy into a philosophy of “anti-aging” in the first place.

I laughed out loud the first time I saw a folding phone. The contraptions, which debuted when the Samsung Galaxy Fold hit the market in 2019, are smartphones with bendable screens. You can fold them in half and put them in your pocket. That first Galaxy Fold was huge, heavy, cost nearly $2,000, and looked […] Read more ›

A three-sided debate has broken out over the Democratic Party’s future. On one side is the party establishment, damaged by the disappointing end to the Biden era but seeking to rebrand itself with a new agenda it hopes will better appeal to voters. Two main factions have emerged to challenge that establishment, from opposite directions. […] Read more ›

The Trump administration has offered little consolation to American businesses worried about losing undocumented workers to deportations. US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins did offer them one solution last week: to replace immigrant farmworkers with Americans who are now required to work in order to access Medicaid benefits, under the recently signed Republican spending bill. “When […] Read more ›

Since last Monday, when the Justice Department announced it would not be releasing documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein and his 2019 death in a New York prison, the MAGA movement has been up in arms.

With his tax agenda finally passed, Donald Trump has turned back to his true passion: making America poorer and more geopolitically isolated for no good reason. Last week, the president threatened 25 of America’s trading partners with punishing tariffs, unless they present him with an agreeable trade deal by August 1. These represent a modified […] Read more ›

Late on Monday night, July 14, 2025, the ninth richest man in the world broke some momentous news: The US government would allow him, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, to sell H20 processors to Chinese customers again. To people following the Trump administration and its seemingly unending announcements and reversals of trade restrictions, this might not […] Read more ›

A truism about stories (courtesy, more or less, of the novelist John Gardner) is that there are only two plots: a person goes on a journey, and a stranger comes to town. The joke is that they’re the same story, from two different perspectives. In the first half of 2025, I’ve found that my favorite […] Read more ›

In the wake of the record-breaking wildfires in Los Angeles in January — some of the most expensive and destructive blazes in history — one of the first things California Gov.

The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that the Trump administration may fire more than half of the Department of Education’s workforce — mass terminations that, in Education Secretary Linda McMahon’s words, are “the first step on the road to a total shutdown” of the entire department. The Court’s decision in McMahon v. New York, was […] Read more ›

For much of history, humans probably got pretty lousy sleep. Prior to the Industrial Revolution, many people slept in the same bed alongside their family in dwellings lacking any temperature control beyond a fire or air ventilation.
