4 Reasons to Celebrate 4/20
Written by Stacey Khizder It's only been a little over a year than the Trump administration has been in office, and his cabinet members have already tried cracking down on marijuana use. In May, Attorney General Jeff Sessions asked Congress to give the Department of Justice authorization to prosecute those who use marijuana, even in states where it's legal. While...

Legalize Voting, Not Assault Rifles
Written by Stacey Khizder Last week, CNN held a town hall on gun laws in America following the tragic Stoneman Douglas High School massacre that killed 17 teenagers. A Florida Congressman, both Florida Senators, and an NRA spokeswoman went face-to-face with gun violence victims. Incredibly brave survivors-turned-gun-control-activists were able to boldly face their representatives and challenge them. They confronted their "leaders" on their weak,...

TYT Army Is Too Strong
Written by Stacey Khizder Before I started working for TYT, I was only a fan. I would watch the live show in full, as often as I could. If not, I would catch up by hooking my phone up to the bluetooth in my car, and listen while driving (I still do this). As a government and politics major, I...

Still Not Presidential
Written by Stacey Khizder On Tuesday, Donald Trump gave his first State of the Union address as President of the United States. As Trump's behavior is usually unprecedented, his seemingly 'normal' performance for the SOTU address was unexpected. People jumped at the claim that this was the night that Trump became "presidential", even though all he did was read off a teleprompter. During his pre-written speech,...

Koozie SZN
Written by Stacey Khizder On Sunday, February 2nd, the Philadelphia Eagles and the New England Patriots will face-off for the 52nd Super Bowl. This football season was exceptionally political. We've seen an unwavering support for Colin Kaepernick as players kneeled during the national anthem for two reasons: to protest the NFL's unfair treatment of Kaepernick and the institutionalized racism that's present...

March To The Polls
Written by Stacey Khizder January 20th was the first anniversary of Donald Trump's Presidency. Ironically, the U.S. government shutdown on the same day... but 'the people' didn't. On Saturday, the Women's March had its second debut. All over the country, people marched in support of intersectional feminist rights and in protest of the people, policies, and norms that divide us. In...

Written by Stacey Khizder What does it mean to have a fair and free election? It means that in a Democracy, an election should never be influenced by corporations spending money on politicians. It is no secret that in order to get ahead in an election, a candidate will need resources. How does one get resources that would boost them while...

An Ode to 2017
Written by Stacey Khizder Isn't it wild that there was a time this year when Barack Obama was President? That feels like forever ago. I remember entering 2017 having no idea how drastically the political climate was going to change. After spending a year and a half mocking the idea of a Trump presidency actually coming true, it was well...

Feminist AF
Written by Stacey Khizder Yesterday, TIME finally announced their person of the year.

Want To Join the Club?
Written by Stacey Khizder It drives me absolutely crazy each time I hear people referencing "that socialist Bernie Sanders". There is a big difference between socialism and Democratic socialism. Socialism is the total equal distribution of wealth, status, and political gain amongst a population, while Democratic socialism takes this idea and applies it to a Democracy. Sen. Sanders' most famous policy proposals inherit the philosophy of Democratic socialism, where...

BiC Graphics Doesn't Understand The First Amendment, Apparently
Written by Stacey Khizder Through out the primaries, the general election, and his Presidency, Donald Trump has stood for nothing but hatred, bigotry, sexism, greed, and selfishness. If BiC Graphics rejects these rightful criticisms of our President, then what do they aim to represent? If you're familiar with ShopTYT, you know that 'Bitchy Rich' and 'Jurassic Prick' are some of our original and...

The First Amendment Doesn't Protect Our Own, Or Anyone
Written by Stacey Khizder Last night, our very own Jordan Chariton and Ty Bayliss, were arrested after covering a peaceful protest against police brutality in St. Louis, Missouri. Not only is this an outrage, but it is a violation of the First Amendment. Without a doubt, the St. Louis police department violated our Constitution as soon as they decided that Americans did...
