You Can’t Seriously Be Shocked That Big Law Caved to Trump They defend fossil fuel corporations, tobacco giants, Wall Street criminals, and the pharmaceutical firms responsible for the opioid crisis. So of course they folded to Trump like a cheap suit.

This isn’t a story of corporate law firms breaking an honorable tradition of upholding the rule of law.

It’s a story of Big Law showing its true colors.

When this is over, U.S. rights abusers must be tried for crimes against humanity Escalating reports of human rights crimes from Kristi Noem's propaganda to ICE cruelty must be wiped clean with justice.

I want them all unmasked. I want Noem, Homan, and Miller to someday be tried for their crimes against humanity. Ditto for the ICE agents and other officers who abuse innocent tourists, college students, and refugees

When all this is over, I want justice. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Man our failure to do any productive public investment during an entire decade of negative real interest rates is going to look awfully foolish in hindsight.

The reason I'm hitting myself in the head with a big cartoon mallet is that the people who told me not to do that were condescending. "That's gonna hurt dumbass" they sneered. Well it doesn't hurt and in fact I think it may be helping my asthma

Unions Without Strikes Today's labor movement has been built to rely on forms of power that are all going away.

"We have the power of the strike. That is the one power that no president or court or employer can ever take away. Workers do the work, and they can stop doing the work. Everything the labor movement has built flows from that truth."

From the 2024 presidential immunity oral arguments: "But the liberal justices voiced concern that by offering presidents a shield from prosecution, the court could turn the Oval Office into a “seat of criminality,” as Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson described it."

CDC denies help for lead poisoning in Milwaukee schools due to layoffs The CDC rejected a request for help "due to the complete loss" of their lead poisoning experts.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie).

Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Pressed for evidence against Mahmoud Khalil, government cites its power to deport people for beliefs The U.S. government has submitted a two-page memo from Secretary of State Marco Rubio as its main evidence in its deportation case against Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil.

It's been 34 days since a New Yorker was abducted from his apartment lobby and sent to a detention facility in Louisiana.

The Trump administration now admits this kidnapping was *solely* on the basis of protected First Amendment speech.

Free Mahmoud now.

Yes, they voted for this "You knew damn well I was a snake before you brought me in."

New in PN: Yes, they voted for this

"Perhaps the most damning commentary about the US electorate and media is that Trump never even tried to conceal his malicious intentions and deranged policy positions."

Trump refuses to bring back those wrongly detained in El Salvador. You could be next. Will the Supreme Court allow permanent disappearances?

The Supreme Court will soon issue a decision in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man whom the Trump admin admits it deported due to “administrative error.”

The ruling will be a make-or-break moment, not just for Abrego Garcia, but for what kind of country we are going to be.

CDC's cruise ship inspectors laid off amid bad year for outbreaks The steep cuts to the cruise ship inspection team baffled officials in the program, which is not paid for by taxpayer dollars.

The CDC's cruise ship inspectors have been laid off, as well as agency's head epidemiologist for investigating cruise ship outbreaks

That baffled health officials since this program is paid for by cruise ship fees, not taxpayer dollars
