Why Cantor Defeat Means GOP Should Pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform Now

It isn't often that I give advice that I think is good for the Republican Party. But there is little question that House Majority Leader Eric Cantor's primary defeat should serve as a warning to the GOP. If they don't pass comprehensive immigration reform soon, there is more trouble ahead for the party. Passing comprehensive immigration reform now would, in fact, be good for the Republican Party -- and the country. The issue of immigration reform is not going away. The longer it remains unresolved, the easier it is for the party's extremist wing to use the issue to whip up nativist sentiment against its leaders. Immigration used to be a wedge issue in the Democratic Party. No longer. Now it is a wedge issue within the Republican Party and between the GOP and ordinary Americans.

This is the America of the 21st century, a country divided along lines of morality, where wealth equates to power and the gap between those who have and those who don't is increasing. I will continue to speak up for those who aren't able to speak up for themselves.

Washington's Cold Shoulder for Defrauded Students and Soldiers

A generation is being victimized by the twin burdens of student debt and youth unemployment. But our nation's leaders still seem more concerned about the plight of bankers and bank servicers than they do about the plight of bankers' victims.

10 Life Lessons I Learned From My Dad in 23 Years

The summer before his death, I asked him what he loved about sunset. He said: "If you've had a rotten day, sunset reminds you that another day is ahead. If you've had a great day, sunset reminds you to soak it in. Either way, it's a win."

Instead of victory, we have humiliation. Defeat. And a sweet, sweet vindication that the Republican strategy of stoking up faux-populism, of just saying no, of never proposing a solution to any problem, has blown up so spectacularly because in their gorgeously gerrymandered districts, people -- voters -- have bought the line.

It's increasingly clear that entrusting decisions involving medical science to the DEA is akin to leaving the fox in charge of the henhouse. And what's most striking is how little scrutiny the DEA has faced from Congress or other federal overseers.

Concealed Carry Laws Don't Decrease Gun Violence -- But the NRA Continues to Say the Opposite

Maybe there is some risk in overzealously documenting our lives. There are certainly times to put that camera away and join in the fun. But these findings suggest that there may also be risk in failing to create mementos. The seemingly dull and quotidian details of our everyday lives may be the emotional treasures of the future.

The expected right-wing electoral bogeymen had begun to diminish. Obamacare was working, climate change was everywhere, gay marriage was yesterday's fight. Something new was needed. The Tea Party, we fearlessly predict, will turn to "amnesty" and try to broaden the argument.

Golden Words -- The Great Commencement Speeches of 2014

A few days ago I was walking near my apartment when a swarm of young men and women whooshed by me. They were all wearing long robes and holding their mortarboard hats fast to their heads, as they rushed in the direction of our neighborhood school.

"Hurry!" I heard one say to the others, laughing. "We can't be late for our own graduation!"

The One Routine Guaranteed to Make You Beautiful

Since I am almost 40 now -- God, I love saying that -- I finally know what beauty is. To me, beauty is the beach near my house, puttering around my kitchen, the laughter of a good friend, my dogs' stinky fur, Amma's inability to say the letter R, Tish's sensitive heart, Chase's darkening summer skin against his ultra white teeth, Craig playing hide and seek by himself, the steeple of my beloved church, a hot chai tea, and the banyan trees in my front yard. Today I will FILL UP WITH THIS BEAUTY.
