Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

as my fellow Teen Voguers come over here I’ll be sharing their accounts, throw them a follow, offer them work, and we’ll be launching a gofundme/something similar soon!
I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.

At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

The wealth of the 10 richest Americans has soared by $700 billion since Trump was reelected.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans are going hungry because Trump is illegally withholding contingency funds that would keep food stamps funded during his shutdown.

"Factchecking Trump on '60 Minutes'"

In today's 'First Draft' morning newsletter from Zeteo, I counted and debunked at least *17 obvious, brazen lies* that the president told CBS's Norah O'Donnell, and that she just let slide:

Trump’s strategic weaponization of Charlie Kirk’s murder is just an apparatus to crack down on thought and speech in unthinkable ways.

This moment is as close to Orwellian as we’ve come, and the fictitious “Thought Police” is becoming our new reality.

Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed.

There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea.

Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.
