The blockade of Venezuela is a disgusting echo of U.S. imperialism in Latin America. We were lied to about Iraq and WMDs, and an entire generation paid the price.
Here we are again.
We cannot let a wannabe dictator drag us into another forever war.

Shameful. Unemployment is now the highest it’s been since 2021.
And Black women's unemployment is at 7.1% compared to 4.6% overall.
This is a five-alarm fire for Black women, Black families, & Black futures—& the broader economy.
The Federal Reserve must address this crisis NOW.

A $1.5 million judgment can’t undo a lifetime of trauma.
But it affirms a survivor’s truth after the Jehovah's Witnesses dismissed and silenced her.
That still matters.

A proposed bill in Ohio claims schools can choose what "historical" documents to display.
But buried in the fine print is a mechanism that practically guarantees Ten Commandments posters in classrooms.
Here’s how it works.
