J.D. Vance was greeted by loud boos during an address to the International Association of Fire Fighters in Boston on Thursday—and that was only the beginning of an incredibly rough speech for Donald Trump’s running mate. “Thank you guys—” Vance said as he grabbed the mic to speak, only to be interrupted by loud booing from the audience. “Semper Fi guys,” Vance said, seeming to signpost his background as a Marine to get the hecklers to stop. “Sounds like we’ve got some fans and some haters, that’s okay,” he joked. “Listen to what I have to say here, and I’ll...

Donald Trump’s polling in Sun Belt states should have the former president shaking in his boots, according to one political analyst. Fox News released polling Wednesday from Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina, which found that Kamala Harris had significantly tightened the gap across the key states. Harris is now leading Trump by one point in Arizona, and two points in Georgia and Nevada. Trump has maintained a one-point lead in North Carolina, where the race is now considered to be a toss-up. The polling indicates that Harris has expanded the Democratic voting map since entering the race, putting the...

Texas State

The Republican attorney general of Texas sent armed police officers after Hispanic voters—some in their 80s—to intimidate, threaten, and destroy them financially by forcing them to hire lawyers to defend themselves, even though they are perfectly legal voters.It’s a manifestation of the new unofficial Republican slogan: “If you can’t win on the issues, cheat. And if cheating doesn’t get you over the top, intimidate!”As is the case with so many bad Republican ideas (outlawing labor unions, ending welfare programs, banning abortion, gutting women’s voting and economic rights, etc.), this one started during the failure of Reconstruction in the 1870s. White...

Meta—the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, Threads, and WhatsApp—has just hired Dustin Carmack, a former advisor to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s doomed presidential campaign and an ex-Project 2025 employee. Harvard Cyberlaw Clinic instructor and attorney Alejandra Caraballo revealed the news on X (formerly Twitter) Monday afternoon, providing screenshots from Carmack’s LinkedIn profile, which he has since deactivated. Meta has hired a former Project 2025 staffer and Ron DeSantis chief of staff as its director of public policy in the South. This coincides with a decline in moderation of anti-LGBTQ hate on Meta while limiting the reach of LGBTQ accounts. He...

As the star of TV's Dr. Kildare (NBC, 1961-1966), Richard Chamberlain was a heartthrob for millions of female fans in America and the world. Decades later, the actor transformed into the charismatic king of TV-mini-series with acclaimed productions like the originalShogun (NBC, 1980), and The Thorn Birds (ABC, 1983, in which he played a sexually repressed priest).

By now you’ve heard that Donald Trump’s campaign aides had a physical confrontation with an official at Arlington National Cemetery who tried to prevent them from filming in a restricted area, which apparently violated the law. This scandal worsened Thursday when the Army sharply rebuked his campaign. Democratic senators are getting involved, which could bring a fuller accounting. We talked to political scientist Jonathan Bernstein—author of a good new piece about this saga—who details how Team Trump’s actions are now signaling a larger deterioration of the rule of law and democracy. Listen to this episode here.

Before it had a name, the xenomorph of the Alien series had a nightmarish presence. Its gruesome and iconic life cycle, established 45 years ago in Ridley Scott’s Alien, is eternally disturbing. After erupting from a glistening yonic egg sac as a nymph with a scorpion-like tail, the creature attaches to the head of its victim. Then it impregnates the person, plunging a phallic organ down their throat through what appears to be its own mouth—a fiendish kiss. Next, it goes limp, drained by the act. Briefly. Soon after, it emerges engorged from the host’s chest, fatally barging through their...

Lavender marriage is a term and practice that's been around for decades. The practice began in the early 20th century and was often associated with LGBTQ+ film stars of the time. The marriage is one of convenience between two people, often one or both of who are LGBTQ+.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. last week ended his strange campaign—which
included horrific
revelations about his personal life, along with the more morally neutral
but unusual disclosure that a
worm has eaten part of his brain—in the most disgraceful way possible: by
endorsing Trump. Much of RFK Jr.’s campaign and platform was objectionable. But he also had a few appealing causes, including his passion
for fighting toxic pollution, especially microplastics,
and ensuring food and water safety. In endorsing Trump, he’s managed to turn
his back even on those: The former president’s track
record on these issues is terrible.Democrats, on the other hand, are reasonably well equipped
to address environmental safety and...

Harris Is Missing a Big Opportunity on Environmental Policy

Los Angeles, CA

A police officer faces the camera in front of a cluster of tents, decrying an encampment’s “deplorable” conditions, particularly the smell. No one, he says, should have to “endure” its presence. A staccato string score crescendos. A swarm of officers readies a raid. One peels a tent from the ground. In this bluntly propagandistic video, published on the New York Police Department’s social media last May, NYPD deputy commissioner Kaz Daughtry congratulates his department on a night’s work clearing “lawless” student protesters from the Columbia University and New York University campuses. Another deputy commissioner, Tarik Sheppard, holds a bike chain....

Rumors that Beyoncé would make an appearance were swirling inside the United Center by the third day of the Democratic National Convention. They hit TMZ a day later. But by the time balloons fell upon Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and the Democratic delegates, Beyoncé was nowhere to be found. Nor was Taylor Swift, the subject of far less serious speculation about a “surprise guest”—teased by dubiously sourced posters on the social media site X—who failed to materialize. (Arguably, the surprise guest was actually the newly minted nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, who had rocketed to the top of the Democratic...

Chicago, city of the famously big shoulders, is also one of wide, flat, long blocks. If you’re a New Yorker or a Washingtonian, and I tell you some destination is three blocks away, you think, “OK, that’s nothing.” But in Chicago, they live life on a brawnier scale.I had known this but had completely forgotten it when I booked an Airbnb for me and TNR colleague Alex Shephard in a neighborhood near Chicago’s United Center. On the map, it looked like a few blocks, more or less a straight shot down Ogden Avenue. In mileage terms, which I stupidly had...

CNN’s recent “undecided voter” panel, meant to capture reactions to Kamala Harris’s speech at the 2024 Democratic National Convention, has morphed into a full-blown media debacle. What should have been a straightforward segment has instead unleashed a flood of questions about voter representation, journalistic integrity, and the blurry line between informing the public and potentially pulling a fast one on viewers.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​At the center of this is Bryant Rosado, introduced by CNN as an undecided voter who, after hearing Harris speak, suddenly declared he was Team Trump. Plot twist: MeidasTouch dug up Rosado’s social media history, revealing a long-standing love affair...
