Israel says that Iran is escalating the situation by firing missiles into Israel while Israel is firing missiles into Iran.
Think about that for a minute. Take all the time you need.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.

They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg share a favorite author: Iain M. Banks, the Scottish science fiction writer best known for his Culture series.

Banks is an odd choice for a bunch of tech billionaires. The author was a socialist and avowed hater of the super-rich.

Dear Republicans,

Cutting science budgets has not historically been a Republican thing. For example, Lincoln created the National Academy of Sciences. Eisenhower's term increased the science budget 366%. Gerald Ford, +15%; George H. W. Bush, +30%; George W. Bush, +54%.

Just sayin’.
