Nobody's safe. Health insurance? That didn't protect 1 million Americans who were financially ruined by illness or medical bills last year.
Israel has the right to shell Palestinian hospitals and schools out of self defense...
It's better to fight because if you don't fight, you can't win. Besides, even when you don't win, you can change the game.
Pundits talk about 'populist rage' as a way to trivialize the anger and fear coursing through the middle class.
My mother saved our home with a minimum wage job. But in the 1960s, a minimum wage job would support a family of three above the poverty line. Not today. Not even close. I understood right then that people can work hard, they can play by the rules, and they can still take a hard smack.
I'm willing to throw my body in front of the bus to stop bad ideas.

It's a simple idea: We all do better when we work together and invest in our future.
I oppose the construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline. It's an ill-conceived project that would lock us into further dependence on some of the dirtiest fossil fuels on the planet.
There are those who believe justice and dignity are reserved only for some people. Young men have died in police custody, and the growing heel of poverty has worn down harder on children of color...We must fight back.
