Our understanding of memory is all wrong

Memory defines us in so many ways, but it’s not exactly what we think it is. We tend to imagine memory almost like a filing cabinet — a faithful record of the past we can pull from when needed. But according to new research, memory is less about storing facts and more about shaping the […] Read more

The traffic revolution that’s making cities cleaner — and happier

While walking my son to school a couple of weeks ago, I noticed something odd happening on Court Street, a major thoroughfare that runs through our part of Brooklyn: A lane of the street was being removed, to make room for a protected two-way bike lane. As a father who would like to see his […] Read more

Is the US about to attack Venezuela?

The US is up to something in Venezuela. But what exactly?  Since early September, the US military has carried out at least five lethal strikes on civilian boats in the Caribbean, alleged by the Trump administration to be piloted by members of Venezuelan drug cartels that the US government has designated as terrorist organizations. Twenty-seven […] Read more

Trump manages to disappoint nearly everyone with his new IVF plan

One of President Donald Trump’s boldest campaign pledges was to make in vitro fertilization (IVF) completely free. Yesterday, the Trump administration released its long-awaited proposals — which are nowhere making IVF free, or even significantly more affordable.  That promise, a late gamble to win back women voters aggrieved by the GOP’s hostile stances on reproductive rights, […] Read more

Why Marjorie Taylor Greene is suddenly trashing her party

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has become an unlikely critic of the Republican leadership.  Elected to office in 2020, Greene has become one of the most controversial figures in American politics, leaving a trail of racist and antisemitic statements and unapologetically embracing conspiracy theories. But even as Greene has remained a  staunch supporter of President […] Read more

Why is this government shutdown so weird?

The federal government shutdown, now in its third week, is a big deal. Federal workers aren’t getting paid, and crucial public services are closed. Despite that, in media coverage and on Capitol Hill, it hasn’t exactly felt like a crisis. Matt Glassman, a senior fellow at Georgetown who studies Congress, and author of the Five […] Read more

The humble plant that could save the world — or destroy it

The largest herds of caribou in the world make their homes here. Polar bears give birth to cubs in dens dug into this soil, some of them more than 200 years old. And birds like the Arctic tern fly north every summer, some from as far south as Antarctica, to breed and lay their eggs.  […] Read more

How soybeans took over America — and the world

Americans have a weird relationship with soy, one of the most important and widely cultivated crops in the world.  Most of us associate the protein-packed, butter-yellow orbs known as soybeans with niche vegetarian products like tofu, soy milk, and veggie burgers (hence the anti-vegan epithet “soy boy”). In reality, though, pretty much everyone is eating […] Read more

Peace in Gaza won’t last if Netanyahu stays in office

If the current ceasefire in Gaza holds, it will mark the much-needed end to an indefensibly cruel war. But the longer-term picture, and whether yet another deadly conflagration can be prevented, is another matter. One factor — not the only one, but a big one — is whether the Israelis can be convinced that they […] Read more

The disaster at the CDC, explained by its former boss

After the Trump administration laid off hundreds of health workers during the ongoing government shutdown, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has now lost one-third of its staff this year. States are forming public health alliances in direct opposition to the changes being made by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Only half of Americans […] Read more

The mega-viral ICE videos that explain America right now

The videos seem to be everywhere. From a Chicago suburb, cellphone footage of federal agents firing pepper balls at a pastor and tear-gassing a mayor and a congressional candidate. Across the city, slick footage of a military-style raid on an apartment complex. From New York, a barrage of photos and videos of civilians being slammed […] Read more

Did Trump make the Gaza ceasefire happen?

The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas is still new and fragile, but the arguments over who should get credit for it — or who should be blamed for it taking so long to achieve — are already heated. Was recent pressure from President Donald Trump on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decisive? Or was it […] Read more

It sure looks like the Voting Rights Act is doomed

Two things were obvious at Wednesday morning’s Supreme Court argument in Louisiana v. Callais, a case asking the Court to abolish longstanding safeguards against racially gerrymandered legislative maps. The first thing is that the Court will split along party lines, with all six Republicans voting to destroy the federal Voting Rights Act’s (VRA) restrictions on […] Read more

There are many ways the world could end. Don’t forget nuclear armageddon.

There’s no shortage of things that could end the world. But between climate change, risks from AI, and biological threats like pandemics, we seem to be forgetting about one human-made existential risk that has been with us for 80 years: the ever-present possibility of nuclear warfare. But nuclear war hasn’t forgotten about us. “Because of […] Read more
