Mike Johnson has spent the first 10 months of his speakership balancing the needs of the House Republican majority with the demands of his rebellious right flank. Now he faces one final legislative test before he asks GOP lawmakers to let him keep the gavel next year: A September spending fight. With a government shutdown deadline looming on Oct. 1, Johnson has two choices: Lean into conservative priorities and risk chaos weeks before the election, or work on a bipartisan basis to keep...

Genius is often described as the ability to see a new way forward, to advance a discipline in a manner that transcends old, stuffy definitions and ushers us into brave new worlds. On this score, Kamala Harris’ press pool is very deserving of just and proper recognition. This is why I believe that the Harris press pool members should receive a Pulitzer Prize for their unique approach this election cycle, in which the candidate is never asked any questions relevant to being president, but...

Shrinkflation is hitting American homebuyers hard, especially in the South, as a recent study found people are now paying more for smaller properties. An analysis conducted by USA Today/Homefront using data from Realtor.com found that the median American home is now 128 square feet smaller than five years ago, and yet it costs $125,000 more.

The program was also starved of staffing, leaving it unable to track down all the fraud, according to the government’s internal audit, which said the program was “well-intentioned” but became a means for...

Tuesday's debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump will provide another defining moment in an eventful and tight presidential campaign. With less than two months until Election Day, it's a high-stakes night for both candidates, where their words and debate style will be put to the test. The BBC's Courtney Subramanian looks at the strengths and weaknesses of each.

When Donald Trump takes the debate stage on Tuesday, he will doubtless again try to disavow Project 2025, the radically conservative blueprint spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation for the next Republican administration. We shouldn’t let him. Seventy-eight percent of the contributors to the effort were members of his last administration and many of them are likely appointees to his next team if he’s re-elected.
