New piece: It's not just Trump's approval taking a hit. Voters also say they care less than they did in 2024 about (formerly) GOP-leaning issues like crime and immigration. Concerns about the economy, social security, and health care are up. The thermostat comes for Trump

I wrote a new piece on how much progress has been made in treating childhood leukemia. The answer is: quite a lot! Before the 1970s, fewer than 10% of children diagnosed survived 5 years after diagnosis. Now most are cured and around 85% survive that long.
