We Now Know the Word That’s Going to Bury Donald Trump This November (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s been two years since Donald Trump fell in love with the word groceries. He seemed to believe the word alone would convey his compassion for the common man. “The beautiful but simple word ‘groceries,’” he rhapsodized. “I won on that word.” Now we have a word Trump is losing on: diesel. The fuel used in heavy-duty trucks is named for the German engineer Rudolf Diesel. In 1894, Diesel invented a spark plug–free engine that requires a form of crude oil that’s thicker than gasoline. These engine
Lindsay Clancy’s Lawyer Could Teach Trump a Thing or Two About the Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kevin Reddington’s media appearances this week Tuesday capped off a big summer for him. Reddington, who has practiced law in Massachusetts for 50 years, won sudden fame for his swashbuckling defense of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury nurse accused of killing her three children in 2023. In a hard-fought trial, Reddington argued Clancy wasn’t criminally responsible for the murders because her mental illness had eclipsed her moral discernment. As the trial ended with the jury deadlocked 11–1, with the
New Hampshire’s Senate Race Leans Dem, but the State Is—Well, You Know (opens the original)

New Hampshire was the belle of the primary season ball then, and many rural kids got the

Something’s off with Melania. This speculation about the First Lady has existed as long as the Trump era itself. The theories have always worn tinfoil hats. Is she a body double? An extraterrestrial? A Russian spy? In October 2017, during the first year of Trump’s first term, The Guardian columnist Marina Hyde tweeted, “Absolutely convinced Melania is being played by a Melania impersonator.” At bottom was the evergreen mystery of how anyone could stand to be married to Donald Trump. This “Melani
Don’t Be Fooled: America Hates These Toxic Right-Wing Gasbags (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After the assassination of Charlie Kirk in September, Christian nationalists were expected to unite for their martyr. Indeed, the global right wept. Argentinian President Javier Milei, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Hungarian P.M. Viktor Orbán, and an Afrikaner lobbying group all sent condolences. Netanyahu called Kirk a “lion-hearted friend of Israel.” Right-wingers variously blamed the “progressive-liberal left” (Milei) and “radical Islamists” (Netanyahu) for his death. Dona
