I’m trying to think of a species that systematically destroys its own habitat, fails to care for and nourish its young, acts in total contradiction to the natural world - yet continues to survive and thrive. So far I haven’t been able to come up with one.

Results of economic devastation are moving too fast and Washington DC is moving too slow.

It’s beyond creepy. And it’s beyond the immediate devastation of millions of people’s lives right now. It’s laying the groundwork for a series of traumas and crises we will be experiencing in this country for many years to come.

Leo Woodbury is an important force for environmental justice in South Carolina. From Georgia to Alabama to South Carolina, so much power rising up in the deep South. thehill.com/changing-america…

THIS. Look no further for the moral rot destroying our society from the inside. This is the kind of thing that makes the entire world look at us with contempt for our hypocrisy.

I can’t answer that, but our power lies in refusing to be defeated by what’s happening. It’s being made very clear our generation is being called to a tremendous challenge: to non-violently repudiate and transform a fundamentally unjust system. It’s not easy but I think we will.

The only economic relief people will receive is in the much-touted though inadequate Covid bill, yet it's not getting voted on until after the Senate votes on several other things this week that do not immediately impact someone's ability to pay rent or buy food or medicine. Ugh.

I was wrong on this one, making a distinction between Israeli citizens versus people in the West Bank and Gaza that I should not have made. Criticisms of Israel on this one are in accordance with international law and I apologize.

Undermining unions has been a main weapon of economic injustice over the last 40 years. Support @BAmazonUnion to interrupt the pattern & help America course correct. #StandingUpToJeff huffpost.com/entry/biden-uni…
