I clearly see the Supreme Court's tariff case differently than legacy media. If you appreciate independent, news, information and analysis and want to support pro-democracy media, sign up for Democracy Docket. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Katyal: "I was able to go to court - the son of immigrants-- & say on behalf of small businesses, 'Hey, this president is acting illegally.' I was able to present my case, have them ask really hard questions, & at the end of it they voted & we won. That is something extraordinary about this country"

You should not be working on the railroad all the live-long day, nor should you be working on the railroad just to pass the time away. You should be working on the railroad for the duration of a reasonable shift, for fair wages.

'God does not need papers': Cardinals spend Ash Wednesday with ICE detainees, their families Cardinal Blase Cupich led a Mass in Chicago, which was attended by relatives of those who have been detained or deported. Cardinal Joseph Tobin celebrated Masses inside an ICE detention center in Newa...

"More than 3,000 people attended the Mass and walked in the procession.

"Families affected by immigration enforcement were among the first to receive ashes from Cupich, in a highly symbolic reversal of the marking and tracking many say defines their daily lives."
