In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

When U.S. customs officials denied that Wong Kim Ark was a citizen in 1895, he took his case to the Supreme Court and won. Today, that decision is the focus of debate over who can be an American.

The guardians of the forest, its wildlife, and our planet’s future don’t back down easily. I do this for the children, the next wilderness explorers 🦌, while others fight for something even greater. Stay strong Rangers. Nature stands as one — it doesn’t see different trees, only a thriving forest 🌳⛰️

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

The folks at Wired (@wired.com) have been responsible for some of the most important journalism pertaining to Elon Musk, more so than almost any other media outlet.

That streak continues with this piece below.

They deserve our support.

Sen. Tina Smith: Millions of federal workers got a memo—“Resign by Feb 6, and we’ll pay your salary through Sept.” That’s almost certainly illegal. A VA worker told me, “I’ve devoted my life to veterans. If I take this, will I get paid? If I don’t, will they see me as an enemy?”
