“Nobody’s showing me that there are more convicted criminals. Nobody’s showing me that there are more removable people coming into custody.”
Trump is not deporting only “criminals”

Focusing narrowly on the far right obscures the systemic nature of Israeli violence and absolves the rest of Israeli society from accountability. Worse still, it encourages the illusion that a change in leadership would bring about meaningful change. In truth, the problem is much deeper.

Most plastics are not recyclable, largely because there is no market for materials labeled 3 through 7.

Big Plastic wants you to think you can recycle your yogurt container
Those numbered labels, vetted by private interests, can be misleading.

The Republican reconciliation bill which makes massive cuts to Medicaid in order to pay for huge tax breaks for billionaires is not just bad public policy.

It is not just immoral.

It is a death sentence for struggling Americans.

Last night, every Senate Democrat voted for my amendment calling for a $17 an hour federal minimum wage while every Republican but 1 opposed it. The movement to raise the minimum wage to a living wage is growing.

In 2025, a job must lift you out of poverty, not keep you in it.
