Many of the components stuck in the Persian Gulf (with now double blockades) specifically impact the semiconductor sector, which was already devoting more attention to AI data centers than consumer electronics, making everything we buy costlier. prospect.org/2026/04/13/how…

As part of its DC lobbying blitz, Kalshi also hired Heather McHugh and Meghan Taira, who both previously worked in Schumer's office
Stephanie Cutter@stefcutter

Excited to advise @Kalshi as they continue to dominate the prediction market space. They're one of the fastest growing companies in the US — and one of the rare tech platforms that take a regulatory first approach.

Fertilizer prices are skyrocketing right when farmers need it the most—spring planting season. Here's how the war in Iran is hurting farmers and consumers, and what we might be able to do about it: prospect.org/2026/04/01/ira…

The war has been a long lesson to Iran that they control the Strait of Hormuz. Commodity prices will permanently rise, including derived products like fertilizer. @emmarjanssen looks at impacts on prices & hunger, & how we can boost domestic production. prospect.org/2026/04/01/ira…

New: Mayor Brandon Johnson’s first chief homelessness officer appears to be his last, w/ Sendy Soto departing the role his team says was always temporary bc it was philanthropically funded. However, coalition has said that grant is three years, not two: chicagotribune.com/2026/03/30/may…

During the peak of ICE's operation in Minnesota, you may remember hearing reports of ICE agents eating at a Mexican restuarant and returning later to arrest its owners. I went to Willmar, MN, where those arrests happened, and heard from folks who witnessed it & its aftermath.

Rural communities in Minnesota have been fighting ICE since the fall. My piece today maps out what that work looks like in the state's small, often conservative communities.

At the height of ICE operations in Minnesota, reporters descended on the Twin Cities. I wanted to know what was happening in the small farming & meatpacking towns in the rest of the state. So we sent @emmarjanssen there & she produced this stunning report. prospect.org/2026/03/30/apr…

If we've talked in the last 5 years, you've heard me rail on AIPAC & its influence. Our fight against them is working. Now I want to sound the alarm on the next AIPAC...AI PACs. My oped in @thenation on why we need to come together & defeat the AI lobby: thenation.com/article/politi…

I should note that this doesn't include opposition funding, which functionally acts as a boost to other candidates. For example, Krishnamoorthi-aligned PACs spent millions opposing Stratton, but that money isn't included here. Just fyi!
