Yesterday, somebody asked Joe Biden a question about his failson Hunter. He responded by calling him fat and dumb. It’s just another reminder that “everyman” Joe Biden hates working-class people.
There are three things Pete Buttigieg wants you to know: He’s smarter than you. He’s allergic to any hint of a progressive agenda. And he’s smarter than you.
A Trump reelection is the worst-case scenario, and the Left needs to be part of the struggle to prevent it. Impeachment is part of that struggle.
Debates around gentrification often focus on “misplaced anger.” But everyday frustrations are central to socialist politics.
Democrats have signed off on Donald Trump's latest trade agreements, including NAFTA 2.0. But the rotten deals are nothing to celebrate — they still operate under the absurd assumption that if US companies are profitable, benefits will trickle down to workers.
The American au pair program is closer to indentured servitude than cultural exchange.
Hillary Clinton says Bernie Sanders has achieved “nothing” in Congress. My community health clinic shows she’s wrong.
The first caucus-goers in Iowa yesterday were immigrant workers at a meat processing plant — and they all voted for Bernie Sanders. Here’s how they were organized, and why it shows once again that Bernie’s campaign is like nothing we’ve seen before.
Building an app is more than shipping some code and telling people to use it. It is adding a new factor to a complex social system. It requires planning, training, and care. And yet the Shadow Inc. app used in the Iowa caucuses was built and shipped in three months.
Bernie Sanders won Iowa. There are many powerful people who don’t want us to say these words. But we should say them without hesitation, because they’re true.

The Culinary Workers Union of Las Vegas has fought bosses for better working conditions, wages, and benefits for decades. But now its leadership is launching a backhanded effort to discredit Bernie Sanders and the very idea of Medicare for All.
By next month, Mike Bloomberg will likely have spent more money than the entire Hillary Clinton campaign spent through Election Day — and hers was the most expensive in history. If he isn’t stopped now, Bloomberg will permanently change US politics in profound and frightening ways.
Bernie Sanders’s command of the agenda was on display again last night in South Carolina, as his challengers exhausted themselves trying to make their stale centrism seem compelling.
I organized workers on the Las Vegas strip for Bernie Sanders. I saw firsthand how his pro-worker platform and message of solidarity won the day, despite anti–Medicare for All scaremongering.
Though commentators like David Brooks see the rise of an authoritarian left, Bernie Sanders's message is that formal rights are essential — but they're insufficient if most people are denied the resources necessary for their realization.

Joe Biden emerged victorious last night, but his disastrous interview with MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell last week was yet another indicator of why Biden’s handlers have been trying to keep their candidate out of public view. Even in friendly exchanges, Biden can’t help but perform terribly.
