Trump has pardoned about 1,500 Jan. 6 defendants and commuted the sentences of leaders of militias such as the Oath Keepers.

If you haven't, it's worth taking the time to read or listen to @josh-kaplan.bsky.social's story. ⤵️
Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias.

He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social.

The facts are, the ACA saved millions with pre-existing conditions and set standards for care.

But now, more than a decade later, with what we now know, it’s time to take the insurance companies out of the mix.
The subsidies they get are enormous. We don’t need them as middlemen.

Tennessee has one of the highest rates of women killed by men, and most of those homicides are committed with guns.

One rural county is taking steps to try to ensure that abusers don’t have access to firearms.

About 9%.

The remaining 91% is incinerated (12%) or accumulating in landfills or the natural environment (79%).

Two weeks after the election, our reporter deleted his news apps, unsubscribed from podcasts and filtered all his newsletters to the trash to get all of his news from Rumble, a right-wing alternative to YouTube. This is what he found.
