These are the people getting huge tax cuts — paid for by cuts to health care for millions of Americans.
Every lie Trump and Republicans are telling right now is meant to distract you from this.

I went to war to defend the rights of people to say things I may disagree with.
What is more American than the ability to question authority?
Questioning authority is, in fact, our foundation and how we came about as a nation.

Now is the time to stand up for our democracy.
As a paratrooper who led an infantry platoon in Iraq, I often think about the men who fought with me for our country.
Paratroopers have a tradition—the leader of the unit jumps out of the plane first. Then others follow.
I’m ready to jump.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.
Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.
We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.
My latest piece.

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life
Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

No, not Democrats being “bused in”—just regular Nebraskans waking up to the fact that their Social Security is on the chopping block to fund tax cuts for billionaires.

i think we should replace “how are you?” with “hey things are generally bad, how are you personally?” just to make things easier on everyone trying to answer in a way that doesn’t initially seem like you’re either delusional or complicit

Today February 23, 2025 @nytimes.com editors have seemingly approved of the use of the words “lying / lie” being applied to Donald Trump.
Hopefully this provides inspiration for other journalists, editors, publishers looking for guidance.
