Ebola Overload







These 5 unhinged Ebola conspiracy theories expose the right’s anti-Obama delusions
Ebola, which originated in Africa and is spread by direct contact with bodily fluids, apparently taps into some deep-rooted xenophobic and racial anxieties among right-wingers terrified they might catch a poop-related disease from black people.

The Republicans Are Coming. They Really Are. 
Republicans’ chances for taking over the Senate in the midterm elections rose to their highest point yet in a new average of polls.

As of Tuesday morning, Vox.com’s average of forecasts gives the GOP a 69% chance of wresting control of the upper chamber from Democrats. The average is made up of six forecasts from the New York Times, fivethirtyeight.com and others like the Washington Post — which last week gave Republicans a whopping 95% chance of winning back the Senate.

California Dreaming Of Water
Since 2012, California has been suffering through a historically severe drought. For the farmers of the Central Valley, which is, as Dana Goodyear writes in this week’s issue, “the country’s fruit basket, salad bowl, and dairy case,” the future seems especially bleak. Wells have gone dry, orchards have been left to perish, and those who came to California to work the fields stand idle.

U.S. Oil Will Be Fracking Mad At Saudi Arabia
Despite a nearly 25% slide in oil prices in recent months, Saudi Arabia has no intention of cutting oil production. On the contrary, according to a Reuters report Sunday, the kingdom “is quietly telling oil market participants that Riyadh is comfortable with markedly lower oil prices for an extended period.” How much lower? Perhaps down to $80 per barrel, for a year or two.
