Wolfers: Wage growth has just been falling month after month after month now... So the purchasing power, the amount of stuff that a typical American worker can afford is actually going backwards. This is not how it’s meant to be. Full analysis: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

New analysis: Expert handicappers like the Cook Political Report are probably underestimating Democratic odds of winning the House by about 30 points. That's based on an analysis of their historical ratings, not polls or other models. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-09-18...

So in the last 8 days desperate Rs have dropped 26 Senate polls by 7 pollsters in 14 states. They've done this kind of stuff before but the manic intensity of the effort suggests a level of desperation consistent with spiking gas prices, escalating global chaos, and a deteriorating battlefield.

Just so we all understand the play here. Release initial polls showing Senate Dem candidates with modest leads. Release more in coming weeks showing the races "tightening," and their candidate gaining and ours losing ground. It's 2022 red wave, redux. No one should fall for it this time.

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers. Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself. Textbook corporate greed.

I don’t agree with all Abdul El-Sayed’s views, but GOP “othering” is a disgrace. He was born in US, educated at Bloomfield Hills Andover, where he captained football team; Univ of Mich; Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar; Columbia, where he earned an MD. Debate his views, not whether he’s a “real” American.

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.

Also, if you have a BA in English but you wind up writing partisan propaganda that is based in the past, that does not make you a "historian" We historians actually spend a good bit of time actually learning how to do this stuff, and it saves us from making these kinds of whoppers in our work.
