    What You Missed by Not Watching Trump Last Night - The American Prospect (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Last night, I watched Donald Trump’s one-hour-and-forty-five-minute speech to the Republican midterm convention. I watched it with the sound on. I watched it so you wouldn’t have to. If that moves you to send a contribution to the Prospect, please specify “Attention: Meyerson.” A Trump speech is to a political speech as Fox News is to news. Both are defined by an insouciant indifference to fact—more precisely, a preference for fiction over fact when the fiction proves more advantageous to their

    What a Real Midterm Convention Once Looked Like - The American Prospect (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Just as the Holy Roman Empire proved to be neither holy, Roman, nor an empire, so the Republican midterm convention, which will meet over the next two days in Dallas, will be neither a convention nor, at least in a way that will help the party in the November elections, Republican. As to its status as a convention, it will feature no delegates, or even a delegate selection process; it will merely have attendees. As to Republicans, it’s clear that Republicans facing serious election challenges ar

    Labor Day 2026: Record-High Popularity, Record-Low Power for America’s Unions - The American Prospect (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Americans really like unions. Last week, Gallup released its annual survey of the public’s assessment of the labor movement, and found that unions’ approval rating stood at 71 percent—the highest it’s been since 1957. While 89 percent of Democrats and 70 percent of independents approved of unions, even 52 percent of Republicans felt that way as well. Moreover, fully 47 percent of our fellow Americans said they wanted unions to have more influence than they currently have, which is a record high

    Why Would New York City Elect Anyone but a Socialist? - The American Prospect (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Anyone still puzzled by the fact that New York’s mayor is a democratic socialist doesn’t know New York. Yesterday, New York City Comptroller Mark Levine released a survey of New Yorkers’ incomes, based on their tax returns from 2019 to 2024. The survey revealed levels of wealth concentration and income disparity so profound that it called to mind Metropolis—the fictional city in Fritz Lang’s 1927 film of the same name, where a handful of economic oligarchs rule over the literally subterranean wo

    How to Stanch the Rising Cost of Everything - The American Prospect (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Two big money stories are washing over us today. First, the bond markets of the U.S., Japan, and the leading European nations are seeing their yields soar, which will likely compel their governments to raise interest rates. For fans of housing unaffordability, student loan defaults, and car repossessions, it’s a grand and glorious day. Second, The New York Times reports that through the medium of super PACs, roughly $1 billion in untraceable and anonymous money has already been deployed to suppo
