    Trump Is Using Your Taxpayer Money to Pay for Illegal Election Propaganda (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    But as brazen and authoritarian as these ad spots are, they seem likely to backfire. This just in: You are paying for the rollout of the GOP’s midterm messaging from the White House. A trio of election-season spots casting President Donald Trump as the savior of a communist-besieged America and the defender of its libertarian birthright hit the airwaves recently, once more splattering the commander in chief’s visage across the great and good republic of television. But instead of running with th

    AI Is a Kitchen-Table Issue (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    And with the Trump administration encouraging unregulated growth in the industry, Democrats need to start acting like it. The Republican Party sports a glaring weakness in the pitched battle over regulating the rapidly multiplying abuses of AI, and its name is Donald John Trump. The president sought to dismiss the growing furor about the multitude of threats the unregulated new technology poses to our basic quality of life by proclaiming on Truth Social that “the only control or ‘guardrails’ tha

In a dead-heat Senate race against Ken Paxton, Democrat state legislator James Talarico leads with scripture, invoking his faith against Christian nationalism from the floor of the Texas House.

    Trump Can’t Stop the Populist Uprising Against Data Centers (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The grassroots revolt against AI oligarchs is reviving a more than a century-old fight against robber barons and their attempts to seize land, water, and political power. There’s a hulking irony taking shape across the landscape of the 2026 midterms: After a decade of pundits bloviating about the menace of populism in our times, the material conditions that gave rise to American populism have upended the political consensus. In the tirelessly mythologized heartland said to harbor the recondite a

    One of the Biggest Myths of the Trump Era Is Unraveling (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    It turns out that people don’t actually want a gestapo force rounding up immigrants all over America. Don’t look now, but one of the great shibboleths of the MAGA era is unraveling: the notion that a brutal crackdown on undocumented immigrants represents a key political strength of the Trumpified Republican Party. The campaign to deploy blanket ICE raids to terrorize immigrants—and, simultaneously, the Democratic-led states and cities targeted by the White House—has proven to be so broadly unpop
