It's 21 days since Rep. Grijalva won her election.

Truth will tell. TFG cost thousands of lives in a war that could have ended a year earlier.

Getting a Saline Drip in the USA cost $800, and your insurance doesn't cover it.

Using an Ambulance costs $1500+$100 every minute, Insurance doesn't cover it.

Do you want Private Healthcare, really?

As we’ve said before, no university should sign on to this compact, certainly not our own. @gjmartin.bsky.social and other Stanford AAUP colleagues explain why in this editorial👇

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Christiane Amanpour: Netanyahu talked about territorial dominance before he ever even spoke about the hostages. This will go down badly in history. It is unconscionable that we have not been able to tell the full story to the world. I've never seen any democratic nation forbid outside journalists.

Can you imagine any normal President of the United States giving a speech in a foreign nation disparaging former Presidents of the United States? It's mind boggling.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
