What exactly does it mean when someone “gets their news from social media”? From media sources sharing their content on social media? From their friends sharing their opinions about current events? Algorithm pushed content? All of the above? They are not all the same.
In the last year, the share of Americans who say they've gotten news from social media in the past month has risen by 7 percentage points
Republican use of social media as a source for news in the past month rose by 14 points

Trump thinks he can dictate what history and culture Americans access by zeroing out funding for arts and humanities and repurposing it for his personal vanity projects—like a bizarre “Garden of Heroes.”
We’ll fight this budget—and its assault on culture, history, and speech—every step of the way.

Racial profiling is illegal.

Last week, the President decided to go after the Smithsonian.
His goal? To remove “anti-American ideology” from places like the National Museum of African American History.
What he’s really trying to do is whitewash our history.
This is why we march. This is why we fight.

I’d love to see a team for arts and culture as part of this People’s Cabinet.
We’re launching the People’s Cabinet—a group of leaders, experts, and everyday Americans who will cut through Trump’s lies and speak directly to the people.
Stay tuned for more.

Ok I need someone to explain to me a non-lawyer why it is ethical and legal for law firms to commit in advance to donate hundreds of millions of dollars of legal fees to advance the policies of a specific presidential administration before knowing what they’ll be asked to do. TIA
