The Risk Report
THE 2015 MIGRANT CRISIS STILL hangs over Europe. The more than 1.3 million migrants-particularly from Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq-who claimed asylum that year have been a boon for grievance-driven European populism and its most talented practitioners. The upshot is a cultural and economic anxiety that has transformed the continent's political landscape.

TRUMP'S IRAN SHAMBLES
The questions remaining over the damage to Iran's nuclear program include the fate of almost 900 lb. of highly enriched uranium, enough to make nine bombs. But we know that stockpile was accumulated after Donald Trump scrapped an agreement that had sidelined Iran's program, a pact that Tehran had been honoring. Trump's failed diplomacy got us into this mess.

Recharging the green transition
THE MINERALS FOUND IN AN ELECTRIC-CAR BATTERY often travel thousands of miles around the world before the vehicles they will be in hit the road. Lithium mined in Chile or Argentina is shipped to China-where three-quarters of the world's electric-vehicle (EV) batteries are currently made. The sea journey emits considerable amounts of CO, in the process. Yet, electrifying the transportation sector-which accounts for more than a third of global CO₂ emissions-is key for reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.

Why are rural hospitals closing?
THOMASVILLE REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER WAS SUPposed to be a game changer.

But it closed less than five years later in September 2024.

CHOOSE HOPE OVER FEAR
I am the leader of the second largest public school system in the country. I am also a proud American—and once, I was an undocumented immigrant. My journey to citizenship is an experience that deeply informs how I lead, how I teach, and how I serve the over 520,000 students who attend Los Angeles Unified schools. This country gave me the opportunity to learn, to grow, and to give back.

When religion was forced on Americans
BEFORE THE AMERICAN REVOLU-tion, many colonies had established churches supported with tax dollars or imposed religious restrictions on voting or holding office. There was no separation of church and state. In Virginia, the most populous colony, everyone paid a tax to support the Anglican Church, which controlled marriage, poor relief, and care of orphans, and enforced laws regarding profanity and church attendance. If religious dissenters died leaving young children, Anglican officials would often place them in an Anglican home. Dissenters who failed to attend Anglican services regularly were often fined.

A bombshell movie-star mother, with bombshell secrets
WHEN MARISKA HARGITAY WAS 3, she and two of her brothers survived the car accident that killed their mother, bombshell movie star Jayne Mansfield. The kids were asleep in the back seat; the three adults in the front—Mansfield, her companion at the time, and the car’s driver—were killed instantly. Mariska’s two brothers, injured, were carried away from the scene. It wasn’t until later that one of them, 6-year-old Zoltan, realized Mariska wasn’t with them: she was pinned beneath the passenger seat, with a head injury. If Zoltan hadn’t spoken up, Mariska might not have been found until it was too late.

Caroline Fraser The Pulitzer Prize-winning author on her new book about serial killers, the Pacific Northwest, and toxic chemicals
Your last book was a biography of Little House on the Prairie author Laura Ingalls Wilder. How do you go from that to serial killers? I was born and raised in Seattle and remember growing up with the presence of Ted Bundy. Even though I wasn’t touched by the case directly, having it happen so close was a big deal. Bundy kidnapped and killed two women on the same Sunday afternoon from Lake Sammamish— just six miles from me. It was all anybody could talk about. And then there were so many others...

Moving forward from anguish with laughs
AT THEIR BEST, MOVIES CAN BE SUBTLE EXPRESSIONS of feelings we’ve had but can’t fully articulate. Besides, when it comes to feelings, articulation might be overrated: one of the functions of art is to explore the undefinable, and sometimes it’s a relief to let a movie do some of the emotional heavy lifting for us.

The truth and sanity of American history
I AM A HISTORY PROFESSOR AT ONE OF THE UNIVERSITIES under attack by the Trump Administration. I am also a flagwaving patriot with an abiding love of the U.S. Those two statements might seem surprising, or contradictory, if you do not know what has happened to the teaching and writing of American history in the past 50 years. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order titled “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History.” It asserts that American historians have rewritten American history and replaced “objective facts with a distorted narrative driven by ideology rather than truth.”

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN Poland delivered the latest anti-incumbent surprise in what has been a tough period for establishment candidates the world over. The right-wing populist Karol Nawrocki, a historian with no political experience, won a narrow victory in a June 1 runoff vote over a candidate aligned with the centrist Prime Minister Donald Tusk and his plans for closer European integration. Nawrocki will take office on Aug. 6. Tusk must now buckle up for a bumpy ride.
