    The Only Thing Capable of Uniting Bernie and Bannon (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    If there was any question over whether the concept of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” is still operative in Washington’s hyper-partisan political environment, the answer may be found in the budding coalition of progressives and MAGA-friendly activists who have united in recent days to speak out against artificial intelligence. Which is how Senator Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon found themselves speaking on the same stage today. With warnings that the technology could cause mass economic di

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

One of the lowest moments came earlier this year, when he learned that some of the most powerful people in his state are attempting to ban immigrants like him from pursuing higher office. “It seems to be part of a project to reject anyone who’s not born in this country as not worthy or deserving of the full rights of citize

    This story was updated on August 5, 2026, at 7:29 p.m. ET The Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed made the customary call for unity after a hard-fought primary against a fellow Democrat. “Always magnanimity in victory,” he told a packed crowd of supporters, adding that “however much we might disagree with our Democratic opponent, there is so much more that unites us than divides us.” But just minutes earlier, one of his most famous endorsers was pushing a much different message. “Everyone b
