Mallaby is the author of The Power Law: Venture Capital and the Making of the New Future (Penguin, 2022) among other books.Â

SB 1718, Floridaâs controversial new immigration law, is set to go into effect in less than two weeks. The law limits social services for undocumented people in the state, makes it harder for businesses to hire them, and earmarks millions to fund DeSantis' relocation of migrants to other states. Paula Muñoz with the Florida Immigrant Coalition tells us just how harmful this measure will be once it goes into effect.
And in headlines: U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Chinese President Xi Jinping, a deep-sea submersible carrying five people to survey the wreckage of the Titanic went missing in the North Atlantic, and Amazon delivery drivers and dispatchers walked off the job in Palmdale, California.

The Republican âContract With Americaâ is arguably one of the most influential political documents in recent history.Â
In 1994, then-Reps. Newt Gingrich of Georgia and Dick Armey of Texas drafted the Contract With America, rallying Republicans around key policy priorities ahead of that year'smidterm elections. Gingrich credits the document with leading to Republicans' historic House takeover.Â
âTo show you how historic it was, there's a 40-year period when there [was] no Republican majority,â says Gingrich, who became speaker of the House.Â
The momentum continued, and Republicans âheld the House for 12 years, but what was important was, when we lost it in 2006, Republicans knew they could be a majority,â the former Georgia lawmaker says.
In his new book, âMarch to the Majority: The Real Story of the Republican Revolution,â Gingrich explains how the Contract With America fundamentally changed the Republican Party. He also shares stories about President Ronald Reagan and weighs in on the current political climate.Â
Last week, the Southern Baptist Convention held its annual meeting in New Orleans â and its main order of business was to tighten the reins on what women can, and canât, do in the church. Itâs the result of a years-long push from the SBCâs ultraconservative wing to reverse what it calls a âliberal drift.â As the nationâs largest Protestant denomination prepares to crack down on gender roles, what does that mean for American evangelicals â and for the rest of us?Â
