Dolan is the far right's boy, just last week he and Barron approved trump's religious freedom commission report attacking President Biden. I hope Pope Leo puts them both where they belong.

Please, media, don’t turn the war into entertainment 8 things for journalists to keep in mind as they cover Trump’s military moves

My advice for news coverage of the U.S. war with Iran:
/ No oohs and aahs about the military technology.
/ Don’t believe anything the Trump regime says.
/ Beware of irrational optimism.
/ Serve the public and the truth by making war look as ugly as it is.

He's absolutely right. This ICE hiring surge requires journalists to step up, investigate, and report!

Those concerned about violence might want to start with violence against immigrants, by ICE here, by illegal deportations to gulags and third countries, the violence against so many federal departments, against the law, the climate, the public lands, waters, civil rights, reproductive rights...

Regular liberal people must come to understand that there is no way you can appease Nazis and especially that there is no way that you can shrink yourself so they won't hurt you. Their main goal is to hurt you.

America has never needed an effective opposition party as badly as it needs one now; instead we have the most feckless Democratic leaders of the past 100 years.

Photo of UAW organizers, including Walter Reuther, being approached by Ford goons at the River Rouge complex right before the Battle of the Overpass in 1937.

The β€œBattle of the Overpass” in 1937 set in motion a series of events, which after 4 years of effort, resulted in a crippling strike at the Ford Rouge Plant, the successful NLRB election, and the final recognition of the UAW by Ford in May 1941.

The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.

The fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. It may not be the battle we wanted, but it is the one we face. The state of our democracy and the future of our country depends on our willingness to take risks, ignore the naysayers, weather setbacks and fight fiercely for democracy.

I got a lot out of Thomas Geogehegan's book"Which Side Are You On?", about his time as a young attorney on the staff of the United Mine Workers.
