Mar 29 2021*from the Chicago Sun Times Seven of the eight victims were the world’s most frequent and perhaps oldest target of hate crimes — women. It is heartening to see demonstrations across the nation, led by Asian women and supported by all, protesting the xenophobia that has created an uptick in crimes against Asian Americans. It should, however, be said that whether or not Asians specifically were targeted in the Atlanta area spa attacks on March 16, it was a hate crime, with seven of the eight murder victims being the most frequent and perhaps oldest target of hate crimes — women. ...

Feb 16 2021Friends, While we are still rejoicing over the hard-earned victories that have given Democrats control of two branches of the national government, we are keenly aware that this is no time to rest. Over the past few weeks we have heard varied voices about the path forward – but there are few places where those voices intersect and engage differing points of view. ...

Jul 19 2017Republican fantasies about "repealing and replacing" the Affordable Care Act (ACA) are crashing on the rocks of two-to-one public opposition, and a tidal wave of ordinary people who are demanding their Members of Congress vote NO. So what about a real plan to make the ACA even better? What about a plan to provide even more access to health care and make premiums more affordable – especially for working people — rather than the GOP plan to take health care away from millions? ...

May 26 2017The daily revelations of the entanglement of Trump’s entourage have Republicans squirming and Democrats salivating at the smell of blood in the water. Former boogeymen like the CIA and the FBI have suddenly become heroes to liberals. After years of relative quietude, Russia has emerged once again as the evil empire, as if we were living in the height of the Cold War. ...

May 13 2017David Wood - Huffington Post Heather Booth doesn’t look like a revolutionary. She sits demurely on a sofa, dressed simply in black, fingering a silver necklace. She speaks softly, selecting her words with care and enunciating cleanly. Dignity. Respect. Community. But something comes over her when she begins to talk about helping people organize to make their world better. The sweet smile fades. She sits up straighter. Her voice tightens, the words come faster. Power. Together. Act. She strikes a gently curled fist into an open palm. IM-pact. ...

Mar 31 2016There is so much craziness going on in the political world right now that it makes it hard to think, as random supernovas of strangeness keep exploding in the political atmosphere. But like physicists trying to explain all the seeming contradictions and strange anomalies of how the universe operates, maybe we should be looking for a theory that unifies everything, a theory that can explain all the total weirdness of American politics right now. Today, I go in search of a unifying theory of political everything. How to explain all this weirdness in the political universe: ...

Mar 14 2016The rise of Donald Trump -- and the events of the last week -- have promoted serious discussion of the question of whether fascism can in fact triumph in the United States of America. I do not raise that question simply as a means of slurring an opposition political candidate, or movement. I raise it as a technical, analytic question that deserves a serious answer. ...

Mar 14 2016Despite what the pundits say, the outcome of Democratic primary is far from inevitable Reported as being 25 points down in the polls only one week ago, Bernie Sanders shocked the Clinton campaign—and more interestingly, political pundits and pollsters by besting Clinton in Michigan. And only one week ago, reading the headlines and listening to the pundit-class commentary on Clinton’s big victory on Super Tuesday and her goliath lead over Sanders’ delegate count one could have assumed that the race is over. ...

Mar 10 2016Chicago has a long history of wars. The bootlegger wars of the 1920s, the Council Wars of the 1980s and the annual winter parking spot wars, to name a few. Now, thanks to Ald. Proco "Joe" Moreno, 1st, we may have a chance at another — garbage wars. Moreno has proposed that Chicago's new monthly garbage fee of $9.50 per household for single family residence be replaced with a "pay-as-you-throw" fee. Under his proposal the more garbage a household creates, the more it would pay. ...

Feb 16 2016Just when you thought that the fringe right-wing politicians who have taken over the Republican Party couldn't veer any further out of the American political mainstream, they prove once again that they are willing to discard any democratic institution or constitutional principle that stands in their way. In fact, for all their talk of "original intent" or strict adherence to the rule of law, or the language and spirit of the Constitution, they couldn't give a rat's back end when their radical right wing agenda is in jeopardy. ...
