As of 2026-08-21, the sources consistently identify Catherine Rampell as economics editor at The Bulwark, a role that began in November 2025 and is still current in later sources. The post spelled her name 'Rampel', but the sources confirm the same person, so the extraction's spelling is a faithful correction and does not depart from the passage.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
