All the talk about how to combat misinformation online often leaves out a core problem: misinformation is free, real journalism often isn't.
Proud that @freedom.press is partnering with @wired.com to do something about that. And shoutout to @404media.co and any other outlets also doing this.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

I called Canadian Premiers Doug Ford and Wab Kinew today as we try to find a way through this unnecessary and costly trade war.
While the President may not value the partnerships that contribute billions of dollars to our economy, Minnesota does.

If these Congressional Republicans are unable to uphold their oath to defend our Constitution because they fear for their safety then it’s time to resign.

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

Regarding our airline safety. Call your reps.
We condemn the decision to fire these safety inspectors. Everywhere I go I am asked, “is it safe to fly?” My response is yes because thousands of frontline workers ask that all day long. If federal workers can’t do their jobs, we can’t do ours. 1/2

I needed to read this today too. @hcrichardson.bsky.social always bringing sound assessments and advice.
My take aways from the FB video chat by @hcrichardson.bsky.social today that I needed:
The incoming admin is unstable and not equipped to deal within a system that, by itself, has not been updated regularly.
Don't watch/react to the Trump "show". 1/

A president’s executive order cannot undo a law or a Supreme Court decision, let alone a provision of the Constitution. Forget that and you do have a dictatorship on day one.

Happy to see @u2wanderer.bsky.social book, Song by Song, is available!
Realized with the release of “Re-Assemble” I’m now missing a few songs in the book. But if I have to start a second edition, I’m happy to know “Luckiest Man in the World” will be one of the first songs I will have to cover. #U2 #SongBySong 🎶
