Union Pacific wants Trump's regulators to approve its $72B buyout of Norfolk Southern — a mega-deal that would stifle competition, raise costs, and hurt workers.

Union Pacific is also among the corporate donors to Trump's ballroom.

Gee, I wonder why?

Great man, great journalist, great Coug.

"We are not descended from fearful men"
Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

Easy fast, sister.
As Yom Kippur begins, it’s a day of fasting, a day seeking forgiveness, a day of returning, reflection, and renewal. Our work is to strengthen each other, to value each other, to fight for a better life where every person is valued and every child has the chance to thrive.

Fun fact: When I started at the Everett Herald in 2000, I made $20 an hour. Today -- 25 years later -- the Everett Herald is offering its newsroom workers a base salary of $20.50 an hour.

Get real, people.

I'm standing with @everettnewsguild.bsky.social and I urge you to do the same.

Pretty funny that these people can debate with a straight face what Lisa Cook put down on a mortgage application when we know the president of the United States said on a loan form that his 10k square foot condo was 32k square feet --- all the Republicans are just fine with that.

Now it's been a while since I took Econ 198, but my recollection is that when the government owns the means of production, that is actual socialism.

Maybe my Trump-voting friends can help me understand this.
