A $70 million AI industry super PAC is reshaping Democratic primaries with the same logic as AIPAC: fund the candidates least likely to regulate you, and make accountability expensive. Greg Casar wants his party to name what's happening before it's too late.
The DNC's autopsy author found that Gaza policy cost Harris measurable votes in Michigan — then kept that chapter out of the official report. The omission tells you exactly who the document was written to protect.
The CLARITY Act would curb Trump's crypto self-dealing. The moderate Democrats backing it are also cashing checks from the industry they'd constrain — exposing a donor dependency that makes the party's anti-corruption posture largely ceremonial.

Sen. Mark Kelly's challenge to the Iran war's logic is the most direct Democratic dissent in two months of hostilities — and it exposes a pattern of congressional abdication that has outlasted every American military conflict since 2001.
Forty Senate Democrats voted this week to block arms sales to Israel — up from fifteen a year ago. The Pew data behind that jump tells a story about structural collapse, not a political moment.
Democratic presidential hopefuls are racing to reject AIPAC's brand. Down-ballot, the party's financial relationship with the lobby is intact — and the lobby knows exactly where its leverage actually lives.
A DNC resolution to reject AIPAC funding forces Democratic leaders to choose between a powerful donor network and a base that increasingly views the pro-Israel lobby as toxic to progressive values.
Governor Kathy Hochul is asking state lawmakers to delay emission mandates in New York's climate law, citing potential utility bill increases — while environmentalists argue she's using fossil fuel price volatility as cover to abandon climate commitments.
