Kamala Harris’s strengths — and vulnerabilities — explained

There are a lot of reasons Vice President Kamala Harris would be the obvious successor to President Joe Biden if he decides not to run again this year.  Whether he actually will has been an open question since Biden’s disastrous debate performance on June 27, when he stumbled over his answers, offered non sequiturs on […] 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. Some Democrats see it as the ace in the hole that could save President Joe […] Read more ›

The bar for Joe Biden should not be on the floor

The president of the United States proved himself capable of speaking in complete sentences during a press conference Thursday night.  This was notable because, before the presser, President Joe Biden’s competence at the most rudimentary aspects of public speaking had come into doubt. At both the first presidential debate in late June and his interview […] Read more ›

3 theories for America’s anti-immigrant shift

Six years ago, the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” policy at the southern border went into effect. Thousands of immigrant families were split up; migrant children were taken and kept separately while their parents awaited prosecution. The images and sounds of caged children stunned the nation, and the outcry was swift: Democrats rallied against then-President Donald […] Read more ›

American allies have gone from denial to bargaining on Trump’s return

The steamy and stifling Washington humidity poaching European diplomats through their business suits wasn’t the only cloud hanging over this week’s NATO summit. It had already been clear for weeks that the gathering, held in DC to commemorate the alliance’s founding here 75 years ago, would be shadowed by questions about the upcoming US presidential […] Read more ›

Are betting markets the best way to predict an election?

In the unlikely event you haven’t heard, President Biden had a pretty rough time in the first presidential debate on June 27. Is there a way to measure how rough of a time?  Kind of: betting markets on who will win the election. On June 27 at 8:40 pm (shortly before the debate started) one […] Read more ›

The US is failing renters during extreme heat waves

As this summer has already made clear, extreme heat is here, and it’s poised to get worse in the coming years.  Due to soaring temperatures, more and more people are also at risk for severe health concerns that come with them, including heat stroke, cardiovascular problems, and respiratory issues. That’s particularly true for already-vulnerable groups […] Read more ›

No, a smartphone won’t turn your child into a zombie

If you weren’t astutely aware already: Kids live in the same tech-dominated, phone-addled world that the rest of us do. Babies as young as 6 months old spend over an hour a day in front of screens. The average tween gets their first phone before they turn 12. Recently, the US Surgeon General went so […] Read more ›

What Biden’s news conference did, and didn’t, clear up

With the future of his reelection campaign in doubt, President Joe Biden made a move on Thursday that was very unusual for him: He answered a lot of questions from reporters in a press conference.  The press conference, at the close of this week’s NATO summit in Washington, went fine for Biden. He took questions […] Read more ›

The controversy over Biden and Parkinson’s disease, explained

The murmurs about President Joe Biden’s health — and particularly commentary about whether he’s exhibiting signs of Parkinson’s disease — have reached a fever pitch.  On Monday, the New York Times reported that a Parkinson’s specialist visited the White House eight times between July 2023 and March 2024, raising questions about whether the president was […] Read more ›

Why I quit Spotify

It was probably the ninth time Sabrina Carpenter’s hit single “Please, Please, Please” played, unprompted, that I decided it was time to quit Spotify. I’d been a Premium subscriber since the company started offering it in the United States in 2011 and I’ve generally been a Spotify fanatic who obsessively cultivates his collection of playlists.

Heat is deadly. Why does our culture push us to ignore it?

A 4-month-old died in Arizona as temperatures climbed into triple digits. A 2-year-old died in a hot car, also in Arizona. At least four people have died from heat-related illnesses in Oregon. One motorcyclist died and others were sickened riding through Death Valley as temperatures reached a record 128 degrees Fahrenheit.  These are some examples […] Read more ›

What American cities could do right now to save us from this unbearable heat

On a hot summer day in New York City, I have a singular need: shade.  This is one reason I appreciate trees, especially the big leafy ones. But there are in fact many others: Trees suck up carbon dioxide and other pollutants, helping clean the air and offset planet-warming emissions. They not only block the […] Read more ›

Why are so many female pop stars flopping? 

Female pop stars have been throwing new personas at the wall: Eight years after her iconic CMAs performance, Beyoncé made a hard, star-spangled turn to country. Ariana Grande traded in her usual R&B bangers for an Imogen Heap-inspired album. Dua Lipa left the dance floor for some chill, vacation bops. And Camila Cabello is determined […] Read more ›

Iran’s new president can only change the country so much

Masoud Pezeshkian, the reformist president-elect of Iran, clocked a narrow win over a hard-line candidate in the Islamic Republic’s election Sunday. But given the long-term priorities of the clerics who are the ultimate source of power in Iran, Pezeshkian will only be able to make limited changes, in certain areas — and any reforms he does […] Read more ›
