America is drifting further from its former status as a global superpower. Nate Silver, pollster and author of Silver Bulletin, explains to Vox’s Astead Herndon how the US has damaged its international reputation.

"I don't often recognize the Arizona that's spoken about nationally." Yana Kunichoff, a reporter for Arizona Luminaria, breaks down the gap between how the national media portrays her state and what it actually feels like to live and work there to Vox's Astead Herndon.

President Donald Trump has tapped Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin to replace Kristi Noem as head of the Department of Homeland Security. Mullin, a plumber-turned-MMA-fighter-turned-firebrand-politician, has made a name for himself in Congress as a political outsider — and MAGA ultra-loyalist.

President Donald Trump promised voters in 2024 that his policies would be America First. But he went back on that promise with multiple foreign interventions, including the war in Iran. So why does polling of MAGA voters show overwhelming support for this conflict?

The one thing we know for sure about the Epstein files is that there is still so much that remains unknown — with 2 million files still under lock and key in the DOJ’s possession. @tarapalmeri.bsky.social talks about the cover-up with Vox’s Astead Herndon.

What’s stopping you from picking up the phone to call a friend? Or talking to a stranger in line at a coffee shop? Our worry that other people don’t want to connect with us is stopping us from having meaningful conversations and connections that we all need. 🎥: @sean-d-illing.bsky.social

Have you seen videos like this on social media? A young woman lies face-up on a massage table while a practitioner manipulates her cheeks and jaw from inside her mouth. These massage treatments are marketed as a way to release stored trauma — with clients sometimes shown crying afterward.

Politicians claim data centers are a “necessary evil.” These New Jersey residents don’t agree. Vox’s Astead Herndon traveled to Vineland, New Jersey, where locals are fighting back against a DataOne data center. What he found was an issue that will likely come up during the next election cycle.

Trump has offered multiple explanations for the Iran strikes. Freedom for the Iranian people. A deal in two or three days. A war lasting four or five weeks. “It’s wartime jazz,” says WSJ reporter Alexander Ward. “He shoots first…and figures out the political objectives as he watches things unfold.”

Despite what internet trolls might say, eating plant-based protein does not make you any less “manly.” Eating soy foods doesn’t change men’s hormonal makeup, and it’s well-established that soy products are not only safe to eat but also confer a number of health benefits.

trump signed a proclamation pushing the "presidential fitness test" on American chiodren. His own workout is “about one min a day, max.” He also forgot to mention he uses a golf cart, LMFAO 😂. The man preaching fitness to your children can’t name a single exercise he does. It must be sleep...
