    Trump’s See-No-Evil AI Policy (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Not long ago, most of Washington was scrambling to be as friendly as possible to the rise of artificial intelligence. Lawmakers from both parties saw a chance to bolster the nation’s economy—and their campaign coffers. But rarely has public opinion flipped so quickly and so thoroughly as it has on AI in recent months. While AI was making some tech leaders unfathomably rich, many Americans in states both red and blue grew alarmed by the proliferation of loud, electricity-guzzling data centers, co

    Trump Is Preparing for a Long War (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    To hear the Trump administration tell it, the war with Iran is all but over. U.S. military posture tells a different story: Naval forces are being positioned for a sustained presence at least through the end of the year, keeping open the option of escalation. The Navy is moving aircraft carriers, its signature asset, around the globe so that two can be deployed in and around the Persian Gulf in the final months of this year, giving the United States the ability to hit both Iran and Iran-backed H

    New York, 25 Years Later (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

The heart of Manhattan was a decadent playground for the wealthy, while outlying neighborhoods were plagued by desperate poverty and violence.

    The Real Reason Trump Wants Economic Sanctions in Iran (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Updated at 1:40 p.m. ET on August 26, 2026. For months, President Trump has been unable to bring the conflict with Iran to a close. A massive bombing campaign lost its effectiveness, and U.S. munitions supplies ran low. Diplomacy lagged, as leaders in Tehran remained content to deliberately prolong the process and harden their control over the Strait of Hormuz. Even the current pseudo-cease-fire—as deeply uneasy as it is—has done little to meaningfully lower the cost of energy around the globe.

    The White House Freak-Out Over Natalie Harp (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    You are reading this story only because the White House didn’t want you to. I’ll explain. This past Sunday, Senator Jon Ossoff of Georgia—who has become quite good at delivering viral campaign sound bites, slickly filmed by multiple cameras—unleashed a blistering indictment of President Trump’s leadership. Ossoff, a former documentary filmmaker who is generating 2028 buzz, denounced Trump’s handling of the Iran war this way: “While he fruitlessly drains our munitions and oil reserves, the presid
