The "so called ceasefire". There have been Palestinian deaths everyday plus Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
War-crime deprivation: three weeks into the ceasefire, "hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinian families in Gaza face winter rains and cold without adequate protection" as Israel continues "to block the entry of lifesaving shelter materials." www.nrc.no/news/2025/oc...

Pragmatic progressives — armed with bread-and-butter proposals to improve the lives of ordinary Americans and an upbeat message of hope — are the future of the Democratic Party.

American Spring? How nonviolent protest in the US is accelerating
Contrary to conventional wisdom, anti-Trump protests this year have dwarfed 2017 in size, and they have been extraordinarily peaceful.

ICE dragged a mother from her home in Massachusetts—clinging to her baby—without showing a warrant or ID.
When neighbors demanded proof, ICE sneered, “We don’t have to show you anything.”
That’s not law enforcement. That’s state-sponsored kidnapping.
This is fascism & it’s terrifying.

With Trump defying the Supreme Court to keep Kilmar Abrego Garcia (along with hundreds of others) imprisoned in El Salvador, we find ourselves in a moral and constitutional crisis. Calls and emails to Congress aren’t sufficient to end these crises, but they are necessary.

Under the House GOP’s budget plan, the lowest-income taxpayers would see a LOSS of $1,125.
The richest 0.1 percent of taxpayers, on the other hand, would see a more than $180,000 GAIN.
This is trickle down economics on steroids.
