In Donald Trump's housing market, rich investors get richer by buying up more houses while working families are pushed out of homeownership.

Don’t get it twisted—today’s SCOTUS ruling makes it harder for courts to fully block dangerous policies like Trump’s attack on birthright citizenship. Once again, they’re bending the law to serve him instead of defending the Constitution. It’s shameful.

“Is there any sign of life?” “Have we heard a heartbeat?” “Does she feel any kicking?” “We don’t have the equipment to do that.” That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain.

Toomaj, the famous Iranian rapper and freedom fighter who has been one of the biggest targets of the Islamic regime, has posted this statement. Toomaj has been out of prison for the past few years and has sacrificed a great deal fighting for freedom.
toomajofficial "Evacuate Tehran" is nothing more than a populist slogan meant to later claim: "We didn't intend to kill Iranian civilians; they just refused to leave the war zone."
But how are over 9 million people - without fuel, often without enough savings to relocate, and with no second home in another city - supposed to evacuate Tehran?
If your intention is to kill the people of Iran, at least have the honesty not to hide the burden of that responsibility.
Your war is not with the people of Iran. If you attack them, you are, in truth, killing hostages.
And you know very well that such a crime will plant seeds of hatred that could deprive generations - both ours and yours — of the peace and calm we all long for.
No child should become a victim of decisions made by politicians hiding behind the iron walls of their palaces.
