Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers helped shape America's skylines—and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia.

When I hear talk of imprisoning the homeless, I think of how many of them are former service members who could not reintegrate because of what they experienced. They lost their ability to live a normal life so that we might live free.
We failed them in the past, and we are failing them now.

I am baffled by the Washington Post's sanitized framing of this story. The Supreme Court is clearly going to "rule on the law" -- that is what courts do! The news is that SCOTUS signaled that it might gut the VRA entirely.
