That Bad Bunny speech really got me. Amen.

ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety.

My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

Trump: "Don't forget I can use the Insurrection Act. 50% of the presidents almost have used that. And that's unquestioned power."

There is simply no equivalent, not even close, of this anywhere on the center or far left. There is no ‘both sides’ here, media.

Shapiro wants a world where the status quo is virtue and dissent is pathology. But history proves that tearing down injustice is as necessary as creating new systems.

If Kirk’s movement wanted young people to think for themselves, it wouldn’t be hunting educators. It would be debating them.

Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.

Wild to see Kirk remembered as a “civil debater” when his record is littered with slurs, lies, and calls for violence. Coates is right if we ignore his own words, we’re just rehearsing the same historical amnesia that once sanitized Confederates.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

We can condemn Kirk’s murder and still critique his politics. Saying criticism is what killed him is disingenuous it confuses speech with violence and scapegoats millions of people who had nothing to do with it.

Someone pulled the trigger not “all liberals.” Turning a tragedy into proof of some culture war is dishonest and dangerous. Violence is wrong, but so is weaponizing grief to demonize millions.

In New York, Some Police Officers Can Drink, Drive and Avoid Charges

Seventeen officers, clear signs of intoxication, car crashes, admissions of drinking and not one arrested at the scene. If that doesn’t scream double standard, what does?

How RFK Jr.’s misguided science on mRNA vaccines is shaping policy − a vaccine expert examines the false claims Chaos at the CDC and the sharp move away from mRNA vaccines has public health experts alarmed.

Yes, mRNA vaccines can have rare side effects like myocarditis. But infection itself is far riskier. Cutting research ignores data showing vaccines prevent more myocarditis than they cause.

How Trump’s dismissal of a Fed governor could redefine presidential power – if courts agree that he alone can interpret vague laws Donald Trump’s unprecedented firing of a Federal Reserve board member isn’t just about her job status. It’s about what checks remain on a president bent on vastly expanding his office’s power.

This isn’t a personnel spat. It’s a stress test for the Constitution. Do courts still “say what the law is,” or does the president get to be judge, jury, and executioner of vague laws? If it’s the latter, separation of powers is dead letter.

South Korea charters plane to fly home over 300 workers detained by ICE at Georgia Hyundai plant On Sunday, South Korean officials said they would send a plane to bring the detained workers home. Earlier, South Korea's Foreign Minister said his nation was "deeply concerned" by the arrests.

Hundreds of South Korean workers shackled at a Hyundai plant in Georgia. ICE calls it law enforcement. To me it looks like political theater that risks trade, jobs, and basic human dignity.

David Brooks is starting to exhaust me. It’s not money or morals. My family had plenty of values in Newark. Hard work, sacrifice, faith. What we lacked was a system that valued those traits as much as it valued suburban kids with trust funds.
