Dec 11 2015Here's Bob Creamer's latest piece from the Huffington Post outlining the new billionaire-backed attacks on the California Teachers Association - and by extension - all hard-working Americans. Warning: CEO Class’ Next Big Attack on the Incomes of Ordinary Americans If you’re like most ordinary Americans, you’re not thrilled that ever since George W. Bush came into office 15 years ago your income has flat lined. ...

Dec 10 2015A full-page ad in today's New York Times calls on elected officials, leading public voices, and the media to “stop the spread of hate and division” as the U.S. faces a rising tide of Islamophobia, racism, and fear-baiting alongside a spate of violent attacks that seem fueled and at times directly inspired by such dangerous rhetoric.

Dec 07 2015Opposition research is one of the least understood disciplines in politics. In my experience, it’s not Dumpster diving, paparazzi-style lurking or attending clandestine meetings in empty parking garages in a feverish quest for dirt. Rather, it’s the search for facts. ...

Nov 18 2015Salaita’s settlement is a victory for him and academic freedom. But will we ever know who was watching him—and us? BY MARILYN KATZ What the Salaita case most reminded me of was the rise of McCarthyism and the Red Scare, which destroyed careers and lives through the very kind of manipulation of words and ideas seen here. ...

Nov 17 2015Imagine that you and your family have been displaced from your homeland by an oppressive government. Imagine that if you are forced to return to that homeland you will likely be subjected to persecution -- and potentially death. Now imagine that the world's democracies close their doors and refuse to give you asylum. That is exactly what happened to thousands of Jews who were targeted for persecution and ultimately extermination by Hitler's Germany. ...

Nov 16 2015Imagine a world in which an egotistical bloviator like Donald Trump had his hand on the nuclear trigger. The Paris terrorist tragedy has once again put into sharp relief the fact that our president is also the Commander-in-Chief. Let's take a quick tour of the GOP field and try to visualize which of them we would truly trust to protect our national security. Think about the leaders in the current Republican field. ...

Nov 09 2015If Democrats are losing ground in state-level politics, perhaps it’s because all their talent would prefer to run cities. HUD Secretary Julián Castro appears with Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton at a "Latinos for Hillary" event in October. (Darren Abate/Reuters) ...

Oct 27 2015Mike Lux's latest HuffPo piece is up, tackling AirBnb and how San Franciscans will vote on Proposition F on November 3. So I wanted everyone to know that today when I was out shopping I paid the legally required sales tax on some gum I bought at the drug store. I am very proud of myself for doing so, and was thinking of adding up all the taxes I paid this month and sending a memo to all government officials with my suggestions re: how they spend my generous largesse. ...

Oct 01 2015The media remains obsessed with Donald Trump and whom he will insult next, about Hillary Clinton's emails (why does the media get consumed with such excruciatingly boring and trivial stuff?), about the ups and downs of a presidential campaign more akin to a circus freak show, and now (speaking of circuses) what will happen next in the House Republican caucus. But right under the surface, there is something exciting going on, a political and policy movement bubbling up that historians may well someday look back on and call the most important development of 2015. ...

Sep 21 2015In Wednesday night's GOP debate, Jeb Bush made the outrageous statement that his brother George W. Bush "Kept us safe". Here is a news flash for Jeb: George W. Bush did not begin his term on September 12, 2001. The worst attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor occurred on his watch. And it occurred after he had systematically ignored intelligence warnings - before 9/11 - that Osama Bin Laden "was determined to strike the U.S." and that his terrorist network might try to hijack planes to do it. ...
