Corporations can pay workers a living wage. They just choose not to.

How do we know this? Because the five largest U.S. companies alone spent over $1 trillion in stock buybacks and dividends over the past five years.

We've started getting accustomed to these outrages. Which only paves the road for more Constitutional abuses.

Don't normalize #Fascism

Trump says if he invokes the Insurrection Act, ”there is no more court cases, there is no more anything.”
By “no more anything” he means no more democracy.

Trump: "I'm allowed as you know as president, like 50% of the presidents have used the Insurrection Act. Everybody agrees you're allowed to use that and there is no more court cases, there is no more anything. We're trying to do it in a nicer manner, but we can always use the Insurrection Act."

A friend was 3 yr old during the war in Spain; her family sent her to live with cousins in the countryside. She spoke eloquently about the permanent emotional trauma this caused her. Decision made by family, peacefully. How will these children ever recover?

Every weekday on Broadway, undocumented immigrants line up to enter 26 Federal Plaza. They enter harshly lit hallways where ICE agents mill around — waiting to take people away. For our cover story, Stephanie Keith captures the anguished scenes of arrest in downtown Manhattan. buff.ly/N6JNPUP.

ICE is now the 13th largest military in the world on its own.

A giant corporation wants to seize people's private property by force up in Rockingham county to build a big new 31-mile natural gas pipeline. But even if you don't live in Eden, this still matters to you - because these guys are part of the reason our power bills are going up.

Here's how it works.
