Trump is disappearing legal immigrants he claims are a threat — despite presenting no evidence.
What really happened is that many of these people spoke out against him.
Every institution or individual that surrenders to Trump’s tyranny, or fails to speak out, only invites more of it.

I do not think in the year 2025 that we should continue to accept a reality which sees women paid just $0.75 for every $1 men are paid for doing the same job.
If we want to achieve economic justice in this country — that means equal pay for equal work.
