The Houston toad lacks the recognition of pandas or bald eagles, but this rare creature is still important for its ecosystem — and its population has been falling for decades. Now, the toad’s best hope for survival involves syringes, ultrasounds, and hormones. In this month’s Highlight cover story, Christine Peterson takes you inside the world […] Read more ›

My family lives in a heavily-trafficked part of Brooklyn, and most nights you’ll hear the occasional whine of fire engine sirens through our living room window. But the torrent of sirens early on the morning of September 17 was enough to briefly rouse me from bed. I found out later that day that a five-alarm fire […] Read more ›

With one declaration, President Donald Trump upended an aspect of our immigration system. Last week, Trump announced that the US would begin imposing a $100,000 fee for all new H-1B visa applications — that is, the visa that high-skill foreign professionals use to work in the US. By hiking the fee to such an exorbitant […] Read more ›

Remember the Flint, Michigan, water crisis? The public health disaster that, at its peak, poisoned nearly 5 percent of the city’s children with dangerously high levels of lead in their water? It was perhaps one of the few public health crises in the US that rose to the prominence of a national scandal, sparking outrage […] Read more ›

About two decades ago, Justice Antonin Scalia went on a duck hunting trip with then-Vice President Dick Cheney. This trip became an issue because the Supreme Court was considering a case challenging some of Cheney’s official actions within the Bush administration, and a party to that case asked Scalia to recuse because of his personal […] Read more ›

The US has a lot of layers of government. Some would say too many. I would say too many. Here in Washington, DC, we mercifully only have a city government and a federal government, but you state-dwellers often have to juggle a state government, a county government, a municipal government, and sometimes school districts and […] Read more ›

President Donald Trump has brought American democracy to the brink. But Democrats should not moderate any of their positions, for the sake of disempowering him. This is a popular pair of positions among progressives, despite the apparent tension between them. As the New York Times columnist Ezra Klein, a Vox co-founder, argued last week, many […] Read more ›

Churches, synagogues, and mosques own millions of acres of land across the US, but are usually barred from building any housing on their property. Over the last few years, that’s started to change, and on Friday, congressional lawmakers are introducing a bill to exempt houses of worship from restrictive local zoning laws so they can […] Read more ›

On Thursday night, the Justice Department revealed an indictment against former FBI Director James Comey, that lays out vague allegations that Comey made false statements to Congress. The indictment is not at all surprising because, last week, President Donald Trump briefly posted, and then deleted, what appears to be a direct order to Attorney General […] Read more ›

On Thursday night, the Justice Department indicted former FBI Director James Comey — accusing him of having lied to Congress during sworn testimony. For me, a journalist who covers declining democracies, this set off some pretty obvious alarm bells. President Donald Trump had already openly called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute Comey, one of […] Read more ›

Years of uncertainty around a possible TikTok ban in the United States may finally be coming to an end. The Trump administration is reportedly very close to finalizing a deal with China to transfer US operations of the app to American control. Details are still murky, but right now it looks like the social media […] Read more ›

It’s one thing to get on a plane you think is heading to France and end up bound for North Africa. It’s another thing to post that big oops on the internet to millions of people ready to laugh and scrutinize your foolishness. This is reportedly what happened earlier this month when two American women […] Read more ›

Tom Homan, the White House border czar, allegedly accepted $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents posing as business executives during a sting operation last year, according to MSNBC. The payment was made after Homan implied that he could help the agents secure government contracts in a second Trump administration. In layperson’s terms, this is […] Read more ›

It’s been five or six years since I stopped answering my phone. With the exception of family or work calls, most of which I’m expecting, everyone now goes straight to voicemail, where my iPhone software dutifully transcribes the messages, which are almost always robocalls or spam. And my text messages are even more of a […] Read more ›

It is impossible, I think, to grasp the terrible consequences of Charlie Kirk’s death without understanding who he was in life. Liberals had a dim view of that track record — focusing on his often-offensive radio broadcasts and contributions to Trump’s authoritarian project (like sending seven buses to the January 6 protest). However, to conservatives, he […] Read more ›
