On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, we do more than celebrate, we rise together. Every day, Indigenous Peoples lead the way as protectors of land, water, air, and all that is sacred. Our voices, traditions, and resistance are woven into the fabric of justice and healing.
We honor the ancestors and uplift the next generation, standing strong against systems that threaten our sovereignty. Today and every day, we defend, restore, and reconnect our relationship with Mother Earth.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.
I will not be silenced.

We speak to Richard Wolff, a prominent Marxist economist, about the economic fallout from the war on Iran. “Because it’s only been going on for a few months, the impact on the prices we pay is about to unload itself,” says Wolff.
