Trump Threatens to Invade More American Cities

/

President Donald Trump’s DC takeover has proven to be broadly unpopular among residents and seemingly counterproductive. But the president has never been deterred by facts—and he is now setting his sights on additional cities where violent crime has already been falling. The Washington Post first reported on Saturday that the Pentagon has for weeks been […]

The Tiny Ocean Organisms That Could Help the Climate in a Big Way

/

This story was originally published by Grist and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Some of the littlest organisms in the ocean wield incredible influence, both on their ecosystems and on the planet.

Trump’s Military Occupation of DC Crashes Into Reality—Literally

/

Watch out, Chicago drivers. A recent collision of a red-light-running, 14-ton, mine-resistant armored vehicle with an SUV on Capitol Hill isn’t the biggest news involving the federal takeover of Washington, DC, but it’s a tidy metaphor reflecting the counter-productive, heavily militarized, anti-crime display that President Donald Trump has embarked on. Overriding Washington, DC’s, democracy in […]

America’s Mines Are Literally Throwing Away Critical Metals

/

This story was originally published by Grist and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. The United States is home to dozens of active mines. Some extract copper, while others dig for iron. Whatever the resource, however, it usually makes up a small fraction of the rock pulled from the ground. The rest is typically ignored. […]

The Resistance is Active in DC—You’re Just Not Looking Closely Enough

/

It’s 7 p.m. on Thursday and Elli, a 19-year-old transplant from Chattanooga, Tennessee, just took an Adderall. The DC resident, who goes by they/them pronouns and asked Mother Jones not to publish their last name, needed the boost of energy. They’re drained from spending the last several nights roving the city on foot to surveil […]

Ugly Laws: The Blueprint For Trump’s Anti-Homeless Crusade

/

On July 24, President Donald Trump issued an executive order for a nationwide push to involuntarily commit unhoused people to institutions—claiming that roundups would “restore public order,” and demanding the reversal of legal precedents and consent decrees that “impede” the policy, a draconian move that disability rights groups argue violates civil liberties. The resultant crackdown […]
