There are a lot of main characters in the second Trump administration. Donald Trump himself, of course, but also Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and JD Vance. Russell Vought does not make that list. The soft-spoken bureaucrat was recently confirmed to lead the Office of Management and Budget, not exactly a sexy post. His […] Read more ›

Despite Donald Trump’s campaign promise to end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours, and despite his team’s overall move-fast-and-break-things approach, the administration’s approach to the now nearly three-year-old conflict started out slowly. Although the White House announced plans to seek a ceasefire deal, Trump made no moves at first to cut off aid to […] Read more ›

America’s beloved national parks face a problem that could, in a matter of weeks, grow into a full-blown crisis. The number of people visiting areas managed by the National Park Service — which includes national parks, monuments, and other sites — is way up.

Elon Musk has arguably been the boldest broligarch when it comes to brain-machine interfaces. But Mark Zuckerberg is hot on his heels. Shortly after Musk co-founded Neuralink — the company that’s put chips in three human brains, and counting — in 2016, Meta (then Facebook) also ventured into neurotechnology research, announcing plans to build tech that […] Read more ›

President Donald Trump’s first weeks back in the White House have been nothing short of dizzying. He kicked off his second presidency with a fury of policy actions — imposing (then postponing) tariffs on Canada and Mexico; barring transgender people from serving and enlisting in the military; and eliminating many US foreign aid programs. He […] Read more ›

Elon Musk is trying to purge the federal workforce, and accusing nonprofits and the media of corruption in conspiratorial and factually inaccurate ways. Marc Andreessen, a venture capitalist who deeply influenced the administration’s hiring, has cited grand theories of […] Read more ›

It’s a biological fact of life. The birds do it. The bees do it. Even we do it. No, not that. I’m talking, of course, about sleep, that vital state that lets us recharge and even cleanses the day’s toxins from our brains. But what happens when it doesn’t come easily? And why do some […] Read more ›

Ever wondered what your pets are dreaming about when they suddenly kick their paws in their sleep? Maybe they’re chasing a mouse, or a cat. Maybe they’re pawing at you for treats. Or, maybe they’re just running around the house, rummaging through the garbage, scratching the couch, jumping on beds — all the things they’re […] Read more ›

Russell Vought is the brain behind Donald Trump’s executive order blitz. The now-director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) spent months before the election drafting plans in secret as part of Project 2025. “Eighty percent of my time is working on the plans of what’s necessary to take control of [federal] bureaucracies,” Vought […] Read more ›
