Let me say this as clearly as I can, with every fiber of my 72-year-old, democracy-loving being: I don’t care what Donald Trump manages to achieve in the Middle East. He could get the Saudis to hug the Iranians on live television and hand out free hummus at the
This year, for the first time in a long time, I’m putting out Fourth of July decorations. Not because I’ve suddenly become a fan of fireworks or sunburns or potato salad with too much mayonnaise. I’m doing it because I’m a patriot. And I’m tired
Header: Evangelicals Are Building a Theocracy—With Your Tax Dollars Dear Readers, There’s a slow-moving coup happening in America, and it’s not wearing camouflage or storming buildings this time. It’s wearing a cross and holding a Bible. And while many of us were distracted by the circus

On June 19, 1865—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation—Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to inform the last enslaved Black Americans that they were technically free. Let that sink in. Slavery had been abolished in 1863. But for 900 days, white Texans chose to keep
Dear Fellow Americans (and anyone still clinging to reason): Well, buckle up, comrades.
