Hawaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

Zionism is racism. The United Nations voted to declare it as such in 1975, half a century ago. This isn’t new, and this isn’t controversial.

The Trump regime has released an ad, using trigger words like communism and marxism to scare people, because that is what they do. Divide and conquer, distrust your neighbor. Republicans and Trump don't want what's best for you. They want what's best for themselves.

We have leaders and imposters among us who may look halfway normal, but who have committed horrific crimes against humanity, damaged lives, and flouted the law without remorse or penalty, and I won't rest until every last one of them is held accountable. Don't say it can't be done.

When are Maga-Evangelical-Republicans going to come up with a heathcare plan that's better than the Affordable Care Act? I think NEVER, because they clearly measure success in terms of elimination and exclusion, or death. Making the human condition better takes a back seat.

Imagine watching your neighbour's house burn down and, instead of helping, complaining about the smell of the smoke.
A cartoon shows a dog representing Canada calmly sitting at a table with a coffee mug labeled "Canada" while flames engulf the house around it. A thought bubble above the dog says, "OUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE!" An angry looking person wearing a hat labeled "USA" leans through the front door and says, "CAN YOU KEEP THE SMOKE ON YOUR SIDE OF THE STREET?"
