“Schumer was joined by Dem Sens. Cortez Masto of NV, Durbin of IL, Fetterman of PA, Gillibrand of NY, Hassan of NH, Peters of MI, Schatz of HI, Shaheen of NH, and King, a ME independent.”

DOGE and Musk will take our taxpayer data if they damn well please and that’s why we need to FIGHT.

Since we beat them for the Webby in 2019, the @nytimes.com has wanted to be cool so badly that they’re now falsely referring to themselves as INDEPENDENT. Independent from what? Reality?
