The truth about Trump's tariffs is that the only people who will end up paying for them are you and me.

He's eagerly awaiting the opportunity to dole out exceptions to anyone who gives him favors in return.

Trump and his lackeys want to divide us.

They want white people to blame Black and Latino people for every tragedy. And they want Black and Latino people to react not only with hurt but with justifiable anger.

We must not let them win.

When I was a teacher, my students and I always took time this month to honor the generations of Black Americans who fought against injustice to achieve equal rights.

May we all reflect on our past as we continue working to build a society that lives up to its democratic ideals.

Since tariffs are a tax on U.S. importers, why do we permit the President to impose them unilaterally without authorization from Congress?

800 doctors submitted a letter of support for RFK Jr’s HHS secretary nomination.

It turns out most signatories weren’t real doctors, or were doctors who had their licenses revoked or suspended.

When millions of struggling workers want to join unions, Trump's decision to neuter the NLRB is blatantly illegal. It is also a huge gift to Musk, Bezos & other billionaires who want to abolish the only federal agency that can stop their union busting.

Martin Luther King, Jr. fought to end our nation's deliberate neglect and abuse of Black Americans. He was relentlessly targeted by our government for his views and pursuit of equality.

At this pivotal moment, we honor his legacy by fighting injustice in all its forms, with everything we've got.
