The Chemical Safety Board has an annual budget <$15 million and with that produces gold-standard failure analyses that can be extended across industries. Only reason to get rid of it is if you genuinely want more billion-dollar disasters that kill and maim blue collar workers.

It’s honestly so disrespectful and irresponsible that the national media has mostly ignored the DC33 city worker strike in Philly so far. It’s a huge story with massive implications for the 6th biggest city in the country. Hell, I’ll write about it for ya! Email me! www.inquirer.com/politics/phi...

Philly is in its first municipal strike in the social media age. Does that affect how events are unfolding?

So far, the national press has largely ignored Philadelphia's first strike by city workers since 1986.

If there is one lesson to draw from the history of fascism in the interwar period in Europe, it is this: Democracy falls if and when mainstream conservatives and centrist/center-right elites decide to make common cause with extremists because they consider the “radical Left” the more acute threat.

So it's frustrating to hear things like "This is the darkest timeline" and "late-stage capitalism." Yes things suck & you gotta vent. But... do people think the US started in 1960? We really forget our country, and capitalism, *started* with people on the auction block.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
