The latest evidence? AOC raised nearly $10 million in the first three months of 2025, a stunning total for a House member and almost two-thirds of what she raised total in 2023 and 2024 combined. These funds came from more than 250,000 individual donors, with an average contribution of $21. Know what that sounds a lot like? The fundraising haul of a presidential candidate.

The massive world, known as K2-18b, orbits another star roughly 120 light-years from Earth. It has an atmosphere that contains dimethyl sulfide, a substance made of sulfur, carbon, and hydrogen that on Earth has only one known source: ocean algae. The finding suggests that the planet may have oceans of its own that contain life.
