From The Contrarian newsletter a quote from Jeffrey Frankel of Harvard's Kennedy School of Government: “A remarkable 9 of the last 10 recessions have started when a Republican was president."

From The Contrarian newsletter today: “The last five recessions all started while a Republican was in the White House (Reagan. G.H.W. Bush, G.W. Bush twice, and Trump),” Jeffrey Frankel from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government wrote last year.

BREAKING:

There are actions across the country today calling for the immediate release of illegally abducted and detained union members Rumeysa Ozturk and Lewelyn Dixon!

ICE is acting like the gestapo and we can't turn a blind eye.

Repost if you demand their release! #4The1st

It's time to call out the GOP for what they are: a party that prioritizes power over people.

The SAVE Act is just the latest example of their attempts to silence our voices and maintain their grip on power.

Good news out of Colorado! A Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries. Good work! www.denverpost.com/2025/03/19/e...
Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries
The order prohibits the school board from removing books “because the district disagrees with the views expressed therein or merely to further their preferred political or religious orthodoxy.”

Trump ordered the end of diversity, equity & inclusion federal programs hours after taking office, trying to implement Project 2025's regressive goal of White male domination over women & people of color. Stop resurging patriarchy. Support civil rights.

If AOC or someone like her started a progressive party that ran on things like universal healthcare, UBI, protections for immigrants and LGBTQIA people, antiracism, etc., I (and I imagine many others) would gleefully organize and vote for that party, like I think it might actually work

I’m a transgender writer.

I’m not your punching bag. Not your project. Not your scapegoat. Not your villain.

I’ve survived worse than your pearl clutching outrage—and I’m still loud, proud and here to stay.

My existence is not up for debate.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

What do you call humans being kidnapped and sent to another country to be imprisoned in shackles and forced to perform intense physical labor while living in horrid conditions under the threat of daily physical violence and rape?

Open a history book. You can do it. I believe in you.

"Health care is a basic need, and Medicaid provides that for a broad range of low- and moderate-income people in our country..." Bottom line: Republicans can't make their proposed $ cuts w/o hurting *billions* of people. That's why we're in this fight. #PeopleOverProfits www.cbpp.org/research/hea...

Medicaid is a popular program that covers 72 million people. The majority of U.S. adults across party affiliations oppose cuts to Medicaid.
