On Thursday, the White House announced that President Joe Biden is commuting sentences for roughly 1,500 people who had been released from prison during the pandemic and have since been placed on home confinement — a record number of commutations in a single day. Biden also pardoned 39 others convicted of nonviolent crimes and said he […] Read more ›

In an extremely normal turn of events, a far-right magazine recently published an essay consisting entirely of edited passages from The Communist Manifesto.
