NEW: In a stunning admission, the Trump administration admitted in court documents that it canceled billions in energy grants to states "based solely" on politics -- and whether that state was represented by Democrats and backed Harris in 2024. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/24/b...

Much of what ails US politics stems from dysfunctional political parties and people who feel disconnected from their government. I join more than 500 political scientists in asking Congress to enact a solution: make proportional representation a reality in the US. medium.com/@scholars-re...
