1. Trump's tax cuts overwhelmingly help the rich 2. His spending cuts are targeted at the poor 3. Tariffs cost the poor a larger share of their income Roll these three regressive policies together and you get the largest redistribution from poor to rich in American history.

I was happy to contribute to this analysis on the radical right's impact on labor. A critical topic that gets neglected way too often. Far-right governments across Europe are increasingly attacking trade unions, eroding labour rights, and scapegoating the vulnerable, all while

Glad to share my latest piece on the autocratic threat and why a lasting solution requires rethinking what democracy is. Democracy thrives when it includes. Out now on the Kettering Foundation blog, Resilience & Resistance. While illiberal forces remain strong in places like the UK,
