They found $191 billion for fear and force but suddenly there’s “no money” for kids, seniors, and veterans. It’s not about resources. It’s about priorities.

Robert Reich Reacts: “It's a Wonderful Life”
Robert Reich Reacts: “It's a Wonderful Life” Is this one of the greatest scenes in movie history?I think so — that’s why “It’s a Wonderful Life” is my all-time favor

Are you watching the Oscars tonight?

I wanted to share some thoughts about one of my favorite movies (and the important lesson I learned from it): It's A Wonderful Life.

Watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQDjyZWw_A4

The Trump administration is like that person who thinks they’re the smartest one in the room, but they’re really the loudest, confusing arrogance with intelligence and raw stupidity with strength.

Bet they never saw this likely scenario coming.

Change in Data Sources Led to Lower Inflation Reading

An obscure methodological tweak -- a change in the source of data on the price of legal services -- resulted in meaningfully lower monthly PCE inflation in January. That's prompting questions about why the change was made and why it wasn't disclosed publicly.

Trump has gutted health care and food assistance while funneling billions into a war machine that he’s empowered to kill civilians abroad with no accountability.

The cruelty never ends.

The Trump Administration Has Perfected the Performance of Legality This administration understands that pantomiming rule-following allows it to pursue its ultimate objective of justifying whatever intervention it may deem necessary.

President Trump and his administration’s views of legality have been guided by the belief that their power is in no way meaningfully constrained by the law—though it would be a mistake to assume that they’ve governed through lawlessness alone.

On Saturday, Trump told us the attack on an elementary school in Iran that killed 175 people – mostly children – “was done by Iran.”

Now the U.S. military admits it was a U.S. strike.

If they are lying about something as obvious as this, what else are they lying about?

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

Important to widely disseminate this piece, if Wikipedia is to continue to serve as public good and thrive. As a donor (supporter) and author, I have been wondering for a while about the AI-impact on/AI-generated content in Wikipedia entries.
