We make jokes about this sometimes because it’s laughable. But when journalists try to make sense of the nonsensical, rational out of the irrational, and coherence out of the incoherence, they affirmatively do the public interest great harm.

It’s been 16 years since the last federal minimum wage increase. We all know that $7.25 an hour is not even close to a livable wage. It is long past time we raised the federal minimum wage, and the fact that we still haven’t is a national embarrassment.

George Floyd should be alive today. He should be raising his daughter, living his life. 5 years later, we owe him more than thoughts and hashtags. His daughter said, “My daddy changed the world.” Let’s stop failing her, and him. Congress must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

Crockett: They have nothing to show for it except for those top earners being able to have their next trophy wife or buy their next yacht, or get their next plane, that doesn't work for me. And that obviously does not work for my constituents.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.

My father was able to hand this to me, while some of his friends never got that chance. He feels very guilty about that, but I feel grateful. I'm thinking about that, and those friends of his, on this Memorial Day.

It’s not Zelensky’s war or Biden’s war or Trump’s war. It is Putin’s war. Why can’t Trump simply say that? Why is he obsessed with blaming everyone else? It is a simple and obvious truth that should be stated with moral clarity. But the US president is a liar and a coward.

Wow. This is major news. Judges discuss moving the U.S. marshals from the executive to the judicial branch. Not only would they protect judges from trump threats, but it would also make it easier for courts to order marshals to carry out court orders.

Maybe choosing someone who is one of your NY real estate investor pals with no diplomatic or military experience to be the special envoy to deal with Putin, who refuses to bring any help with him from the State Dept & uses Kremlin translators, wasn’t the best plan to end the war.
