A whole new wave of tariffs has been announced by the Trump administration targeting our allies in Europe. These tariffs, like the ones previously announced by China, will have negative consequences for the livelihoods of American citizens. Industries including pharmaceuticals, motor vehicles, and general machinery will be the ones taking...
This feels like the 30th opinion piece I’ve written on the Trump administration. As someone who only became a U.S. citizen last year, is a journalist and keeps hearing stories about immigrants being threatened with citizenship revocation for criticizing Trump, I almost hope they come for me, too. But in...
When someone asks for financial help online, they always mention how bad they felt about asking. Especially when they need direct donations to help with basic necessities like bills, food and clothing.

New York City is many things: lively, resilient, diverse, and a mecca for fashion and art. But as the city grapples with an influx of asylum seekers, it is becoming a scapegoating machine.

Additionally, it has encouraged more pedestrians to use the buses and subway system....
Omaha, and by proxy, Nebraska, is known for many things. It’s a leader of agriculture, a pioneer of westward expansion, and home to iconic investor Warren Buffett. It has the largest truck stop in the U.S. – a pretty big deal. On the other side, it’s the home of the...
The Trump Administration’s welcoming of white South African refugees should not come as a surprise to anyone. White South Africans have been a group of people that right-leaning groups and politicians have centered on for years, with problematic ideologies like the Great Replacement theory. While Trump has previously made comments...
In a twist of historical irony, some of the loudest voices attacking modern feminism aren’t men, they’re women. Figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene and influencers like Pearl Davis are reviving 1950s-style gender roles under the guise of “traditional values,” using platforms built by the feminist movements they denounce. The alternative...
