Democratic Socialists are on the charge in the leadup to the next Congress – but their current winning streak doesn't insulate the party from trouble down the line.
Washington has a bad habit of creating new taxes that sound harmless until ordinary Americans get the bill. Buried deep within the Senate’s version of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which is now law, is a provision that few people have heard about, but millions could feel its effects. That’s exactly what happened when […]
SMITHFIELD, Pennsylvania — Two days ago, Beth Ann Bossio woke up to the news that Pennsylvania would not have a booth at the Great American State Fair, the Fourth of July celebration underway on the National Mall in Washington.
