Chris Rabb, backed by the Squad, just won Pennsylvania's bluest House seat despite AIPAC's primary spending. The progressive wing is no longer the insurgency — it's the institution.
SpaceX is racing toward a stock market debut at a $1.75 trillion valuation. A significant share of that number is built on federal contracts awarded by agencies whose decisions are shaped by the company's owner — who also works inside the government.
Tech billionaires lost the governor's race but won where it counts — in the down-ballot contests that control California's legislature, its regulatory agencies, and the AI policy agenda that the rest of the country is watching.
The administration is using emergency wartime authority to send $700 million to coal plants already on the industry's closure lists. The law was never designed for this — and that's precisely why it was chosen.
Brad Raffensperger's primary defeat completes a five-year project to remove every Georgia Republican who certified the 2020 election — replacing legal obligation with loyalty as the job requirement for election officials.
Trump's move dismayed Senate Republicans, many of whom have served with the Texan for decades.
For years, Washington condemned Beijing's artificial island-building in the South China Sea as a violation of international law. Other claimant nations watched carefully — and are now doing the same thing. The rules-based maritime order wasn't undermined by China alone. It was never enforced.
U.S. and Israeli officials reportedly planned to install Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — the Holocaust-denying former president who called for Israel's destruction — as Iran's next leader. The strategic incoherence is not a planning failure. It's a confession about what the war was always for.
The Office of Personnel Management wants every federal worker to sign an NDA. The proposal wouldn't stop espionage — it would silence the 2.2 million employees who are the public's last line of sight into how government power is actually used.
The bodycam footage from Henry Nowak's arrest makes a mechanism visible that official statements prefer to keep abstract — the moment racial suspicion becomes prior to medical need, and a dying teenager is processed as a threat.
Bill Pulte ran a housing agency and gave away money on Twitter. He has no intelligence background. He's been nominated to lead all 18 U.S. intelligence agencies — and even GOP senators are struggling to defend it.
La Tilde looks like a regional outlet. It's a Pentagon influence operation using AI to manufacture consent for U.S. military presence across Latin America — and it's building infrastructure, not just planting stories.
A split appeals court ruling protects transgender troops currently in uniform while allowing the Pentagon to bar new enlistment — a two-tier structure that preserves individuals while systematically eliminating the group they belong to.
Ford just launched a $2 billion energy subsidiary to power AI data centers. The electricity gold rush is real — and so is the $40 billion cancellation wave it's already producing. The question isn't whether the boom is happening. It's who pays when it breaks.
Federal Reserve officials are refusing to accept AI productivity gains as a basis for monetary policy — and their pushback exposes who actually bears the cost when tech industry promises outpace delivery.
Newark Mayor Ras Baraka's curfew around Delaney Hall restricts protesters but imposes nothing on the facility where detainees have alleged beatings and pepper spray retaliation — the conditions that brought demonstrators there in the first place.
