Brother Hunter left a mark. He inspired my work and guided me through the years. I am too sad for many words.

Bob, your work continues to inspire, and that helps us get through these difficult times.

You zoom out to focus on the long game, and then zoom in to remind us that we can do more together.

Onward!

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

You play stupid games you win stupid prizes, Lindsey.

This temper tantrum you are having is unbecoming, even for you.

We are seeing a significant uptick in our work. Why?

People understand and that our democracy is broken. We must design what’s next.

The path is possible.

This shit is so crazy and so obviously our biggest problem underlying everything and anyone who says otherwise is either greedy or blind

We said what we said

We discussed the importance of education and how it shapes our communities and informs our democracy. It all felt so incredibly relevant to what we are facing right now.

I really do hope you get a chance to see this film at a screening near you. More details here: www.thelastclassfilm.com

We enjoyed a showing of #thelastclass and a conversation with @wkamaubell.bsky.social & @rbreich.bsky.social tonight. The film is a beautiful love letter to teaching. Our homework: become an activist! We’re working on it, Professor Reich!

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system.

We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump.

We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents.

This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

‘Giddy’ Republicans cheer Mamdani’s impact on Democrats Party leaders and operatives worry the leading New York City mayor candidate will hurt their chances of winning back power in Washington.

Oh stop it, both the media for this idiotic reductive narrative and Dem centrists for being such astonishing wimps. The voters of NYC — especially young ones — made their clear choice, so either move along or go sit down. You win nothing by being cautious and scared www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Good news for Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Wandrea “Shaye” Moss.

Rest assured. The seeds of Trump’s destruction have already been sown. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-263

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

For seven years, I lived in Shreveport, Louisiana, one of the poorest cities in the country. The Speaker promotes his Christianity, but it’s an astonishing hypocrisy.
