Week of February 12th
Stories from the week you don't want to miss!

Southern Autoworkers Organize, Business Class Tries to Wallop Them
:
Autoworkers in Southern manufacturing plants are gaining traction with
the UAW and launching successful union drives, even when facing
corporate backlash. Luis Feliz Leon has the story.
The Stakes of Rafah
: If Israel
continues its bombardment of Rafah, where 1.5 million Palestinians are
sheltering with nowhere else to flee, it will ensure a disastrous
regional war and an even more horrific humanitarian crisis. Jonathan
Guyer lays out the costs of Israel's war on Gaza.
Reversing Private Equity's Looting of Hospitals
:
Private equity firms buying up hospitals have gutted patient care and
infrastructure, leaving them shells of their former selves. Now, Robert
Kuttner writes, investigations hope to return the money to the
hospitals.
AIPAC's Surprising Salvo in Orange County
:
AIPAC's first investment this cycle is against a moderate, pro-Israel
Democrat running in California's 47th Congressional District. The
ultimate plan, David Dayen writes, appears to sow discord in the
Democratic primaries to give the seat to the Republican candidate.
The Bipartisan Bid to Stop Surveillance Reform
:
Rep. Mike Turner is under fire for fearmongering about Russian space
nukes to extend warrantless spying, but Rep. Jim Himes, the Democratic
ranking member of the House Intelligence committee, was just as guilty.
David Dayen and Luke Goldstein have the story.
