the party now cared more about climate change and various academic fixations than cheap energy and good-paying jobs.

the party now cared more about climate change and various academic fixations than cheap energy and good-paying jobs.

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.

The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

the whole plan for operation midway in chicago was to frighten and terrorize people, and the administration hasn't considered what can happen when people decide they're more angry than they are afraid

A person I interviewed for this story told me her 8th grader recently read Night by Elie Wiesel in school and observed β€œit’s sort of like what’s happening here right now” in case you’re wondering how things are going for Chicago’s kids.

I know this isn't the point, but going from a cute, modernist tile look to wall-to-wall marble is a genuine step down in aesthetics

Overall social media use is declining.

Between 2020 and 2024, more Americans β€” especially the youngest (18–24) and oldest (65+) β€” report using no social media at all.

A small group of heavy users remains, but the middle is thinning out.

I don't think people properly appreciate just how badly Trump/Johnson have had to screw this up to achieve these results.
