5. The movement is not just continuing to spread into previously unrepresented parts of the country, but also maintaining its geographic reach: Protests occurred in at least 20 percent of US counties for four consecutive months in 2025 — something we never observed during Trump’s first term.

Study after study shows us that a single-payer Medicare For All system that covers everyone is cheaper than our current healthcare system - even studies done by right-wing organizations.

1. May 4, 1886: The Haymarket Incident.
I do not remember learning about the history of the Haymarket Incident or about organized labor when I was in high school. I learned about it and multiple other stories of class conflict when I read "Lies My Teacher Told Me"…

On April 30, 2016, Father Daniel Berrigan died. He was a Jesuit priest and pacifist whose protest of the Vietnam War (burning draft cards) landed him on the FBI’s “Most Wanted” list and, in 1970, in prison.

Could we also know what percentage of each purchase goes to employees' wages and also the manufacturers of the product and also how much goes to Mr. Bezos directly?

LEAVITT: This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.
