Funny how it’s okay to use poverty as an excuse for violence when we discuss a specific group of people.
This is the home of Joseph Morrison, one of the Michigan men recently arrested for his plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
Can we acknowledge that maybe economic circumstances play a role in radicalizing people?

For the last four months, management has forbidden me from covering one of the biggest civil rights movements of our lifetime, and ultimately stunted my potential as a reporter.

Ted Cruz makes an argument that combatting climate change will put a majority of Pittsburghers out of work — a city where the biggest employers are hospitals, banks and universities.
By rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, President Biden indicates he’s more interested in the views of the citizens of Paris than in the jobs of the citizens of Pittsburgh. This agreement will do little to affect the climate and will harm the livelihoods of Americans.
