Lisa Cook is a brilliant economist who belongs on the Federal Reserve.

Trump's attempt to fire her is a baseless, unlawful, and anti-Black power grab that threatens Fed independence.

The Supreme Court must uphold the law and rein in this unprecedented abuse of power.

Attacks on Muslims flood mainstream after Mamdani win Openly racist rhetoric has become normalized at the highest levels of American politics.

We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent.

Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.

The Hard Calls Dems Must Make to Regain Power Democrats want to win over more moderate voters. But are they willing to adopt moderate positions?

my kingdom for anyone on the “dems should take culturally moderate positions” to explain what this actually means in practice? www.thebulwark.com/p/hard-calls...

I wrote about censorship at military academies, getting one’s work banned, and that although White Fragility is not a great book, fragility is at the heart of Hegseth’s bans.

This is the thing.

Manufacturing jobs 100 years ago were dangerous, precarious, and poorly paid.

Manufacturing jobs 70 years ago were a golden ticket to the middle class.

The jobs didn't change. What changed was the New Deal and unions.

for *decades* marc elrich has ran on stopping development and by now the consequences should be obvious: we keep raising property taxes because the county's tax base isn't growing. marc got what he wanted, and all of montgomery county is paying for it

Mahmoud Khalil’s Detention Is a Trial Run The pro-Palestine student was arrested without due process for exercising his right to free speech. He will not be the last.

The detention of Mahmoud Khalil puts all Americans fundamental rights at risk. And if you can’t see that because you oppose his politics, well that’s exactly the reaction Trump and his cronies are counting on. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Greenbelt and Langston Terrace planners promised quality housing — and to improve residents’ mor... The unique New Deal planned communities were designed to address DC’s acute housing shortage in the 1930s and uplift the virtue of residents, but ultimately failed to live up to their full promise.

My housing-nerd reseach turned history paper has become journalism! I am v excited to share the origin stories of these two neighbors (and what that story tells us about segregation, 1930s planners' aspirations, and federal housing policy) 🏘
