On New Year’s Eve, the British arm of Extinction Rebellion posted a statement to its website: “WE QUIT.” The headline was a provocation more than a promise, but it did herald a change in emphasis from the tactics that made the movement for direct climate action famous. “This year,” the statement read, “we prioritise attendance […]

Headlines announced the Supreme Court’s ruling on a case challenging the accessibility of mifepristone last week as if the Court was affirming abortion access. “Supreme Court Ensures, for Now, Broad Access to Abortion Pill,” read one. “Supreme Court’s move on abortion pill in line with majority of Americans,” proclaimed another, referring correctly to polls showing that most Americans oppose medication abortion bans. 

It’s early, but the indicators suggest that the 2024 presidential race will once again come down to Joe Biden versus Donald Trump. Biden’s approval numbers may be lagging, and people may think he’s too old. But still, there’s plenty for Democrats to like about such a matchup.

Nonetheless, on this day, his aides wheeled him out onto the floor of the U.S. Senate so that he could cast one of the most important votes in the chamber’s history—and Engle did so not with his voice, but with an unforgettable gesture.

Keeping the government out of the lives of its citizens has long been a stated goal of conservatives—a goal that has existed in tension with the idea, also popular among conservatives, that the state should take an active role in shaping and preserving “traditional institutions” like the nuclear family. The particular vision of family they offer may appear benign but is linked with a disturbingly retrograde view of gender, sexuality, reproductive rights, and American history more broadly—and it...

With Supreme Court justices under increasing scrutiny for a slew of potential ethics violations, efforts to require the nation’s highest judicial authority to adopt a formal code of conduct are gaining momentum in Congress. Although district and appellate court judges are bound by a code of ethics, Supreme Court justices are subject to no such standards, with no official process for investigating complaints absent impeachment.

The first words Max Greenfield says to me are veiled under a thin layer of playful sarcasm: "Looks like you got some cool pens back there." Indeed, I do; we're chatting over Zoom, and on the wall behind me are dozens of pens and colored pencils, sorted into cups by color.
