I walked out knowing that leadership had my back. It was one of the few jobs where I never had a problem.
The problem is when we turn culture into a checkbox for compliance. People do it badly, going through the motions.

Trump is losing the war. He knows it, and our allies know it too. He’s so desperate to find an exit strategy that he would rather align with yet another authoritarian dictator.
He will not hesitate to sacrifice our country’s security and values if it benefits him personally.

The Democratic Party’s mega-donor class is horrified by the rising tide of progressive populism.
Too bad.
It's time they recognize the real choice is between democracy and tyranny, between an economy that works for all or one that works for a small sliver at the top.

The charges are based on his national security memo that categorized “anti-capitalism,” “anti-Americanism,” and “extremism on migration” as domestic terrorism.
