A single memo launched the Republican strategy to control media, courts, and public opinion, reshaping American democracy. Democrats have a ton of work to do to reclaim it.
Trump and his "people" are creating exactly the sort of environment which can turn normal people into monsters who then seize control and ultimately destroy nations from within.
Republican politicians don’t give a damn about your job, particularly when they can find somebody else to do it cheaper, although they do have to put on a little show from time to time to keep the racists happy.
Americans—and people who want to become Americans out of hope or desperation—deserve better. And throwing some of these rich white employers in jail instead of terrified immigrants would be a good start.

Americans are wondering out loud why we’re getting ripped off by giant insurance companies when every other developed country in the world has healthcare as a right.
In the 1930s, Americans followed with bated breath the crimes of John Dillinger and other bank robbers. Today's hatred of health insurance executives is right up there with the national hatred of bankers of that period.
No other country in the world allows a predatory for-profit industry like this to exist as a primary way of providing healthcare.
Yoon’s behavior serves as both a warning and a call to action: democracies must stand vigilant against the creeping authoritarianism that threatens their core principles. As Trump’s return looms, these lessons cannot be ignored.
Democrats need a leader that understands the cycles of history and is a master at communicating a progressive agenda without pandering or compromise. That person should lead the Democratic Party.
The right approach to tariffs could rebuild American manufacturing and reshape the political landscape.
Incompetence and conspiracy theories meet a deadly virus: Will history repeat itself, or will we face an even deadlier disaster with unprepared leaders at the helm?
