The Kamala Harris return is underwhelming, to say the least. My latest for @NYMag nymag.com/intelligencer/…

The U.S. power grid is on borrowed time. Spare generation capacity across major regions is projected to fall below the critical reliability threshold by 2026. At this pace, parts of the country could face more power shortages as soon as next year.

This is WILD: OpenAI just assembled the most expensive AI infrastructure network in history. Over $1 TRILLION in total deals. Every major chipmaker, cloud provider, and even the U.S. government is now tied into it. (a thread)

I’m often at a loss to explain what is happening in Europe. Utter political sclerosis born of a residual colonial mindset sustained by habituation to being US lackeys, I guess. I thought it might change after the Iraq War. Forces one to rethink key aspects of the post-45 period.

You really can just do class struggle politics that appeals to working class white people and be anti-racist. It’s actually not very complicated!

Today, Maine observes Indigenous Peoples' Day. We honor the lands and legacies of the Wabanaki Nations — Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Maliseet, Mi’kmaq, Abenaki. I look forward to passing legislation in the Senate to protect tribal sovereignty, which has been trampled for too long.

This is beyond parody. Von Der Leyen said "I want the future of AI to be made in Europe" while rolling out this "ambitious" $1.1 billion plan. $1.1 billion is literally 0.07% of what the the world is spending on AI in 2025 (gartner.com/en/newsroom/pr…). $1.1 billion cannot even pay…

Who spends the most on war per person? China's military spending is 5% of that of the USA. No, China is not our enemy.

Let's be honest,China isn’t an enemy. It’s simply a competitor of the US and now the leading economic power. Why? China didn’t waste trillions on endless wars. They invested in innovation, manufacturing and education. US politicians hate China’s success because it makes them…

The McGill Assoc. of Univ. Teachers (MAUT) this morning *overwhelmingly* endorsed the academic and cultural boycott of Israel, & calls upon McGill to end its partnerships with Israeli universities & other institutions. ("Overwhelmingly" means 104 yea to 8 nay!)

A "Kavanaugh Stop" in action — masked law enforcement agents stopping Latinos and demanding to see their papers.

On Sunday morning, federal agents arrived at Marquette Park and demanded documentation from Latinos eating at a makeshift food stand.

As Trump basks in all the adulation and praise for getting the Israeli hostages out, Democrats should think long and hard about how Biden could have gotten this deal too but - for reasons we may never fully understand - chose not to exert the power and pressure he had to do it.

The endlessly mocked and maligned “economic anxiety” thesis grows more vindicated by the day. A supermajority of voters prioritize the economy and base their political judgements on economic issues. Everything else the media fixates on as “wedge issues” is merely a sideshow.

WHOA! This is the second case I've seen in the last month (first involving a person with a green card) of a noncitizen criminally charged for failure to carry papers. It's a law that's been on the books for generations but virtually never used. Now Trump's brought it back.

Under federal law, registered foreign nationals must carry proof of registration with them at all times. But prior to a second Trump administration, it was rarely enforced. trib.al/NhZv88X

This is some of the best political news I've seen in a very long time. There's a clear a way to end Citizens United by changing state incorporation laws - and now luminaries in both parties are forcing a vote on it in the 2026 election.
