The UK has ordered a rap group to stop chanting texts that promote gang violence.

It is legitimate to stop people from inciting violence. Where to draw the line is the difficult question.

Millions of Americans live in abject poverty such as we thought we had eliminated. Republicans are working hard at making it worse.

Contractors are already making tens of millions of dollars helping tear refugee families apart.

Amnesty accuses the Palestinian Authority of torturing Palestinians involved in peaceful protests, as well as one of Amnesty's staff who was monitoring events at the protest.

When criticism of Israel is put off-limits by labeling it as "antisemitism", real antisemites take advantage by presenting that as "evidence" that Jews rule the world.

In fact, many Jews now criticize the occupation of Palestine, but the most powerful US defenders of Israel's occupation practices are not Jews. They are Christian extremists who aim to destroy the world (literally!) by making events occur that resemble biblical prophecies. Some of them are politically powerful because they are rich and back Republican candidates.
