Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.
Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn.

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power.
The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts.
But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.
In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.
This is why unions are vital.

My granddaughter went on a class trip to D.C. several years ago. I, and members of my family, have visited several times. My Dad is buried at Arlington National Cemetery. We walk around, ride the subway, visit the museums, eat out — do all the touristy things. We have always felt safe there.
