“The First Amendment had a good run. It was a radical notion and couldn't be expected to survive forever. Of course it would be taken down by flag-waving fake patriots.”

HR 1161, this isn’t parody
Google Maps has officially changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America" after Trump's executive order. And a new Republican bill would let Trump rename Greenland "Red, White and Blueland." Still no word on lowering the cost of groceries, however.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

It’s been a whirlwind. If you told me a year ago that Gaetz would finally face some kind of repercussions for his well documented sex crimes with minors I wouldn’t have believed you. Same with MTG threatening to do the right thing on Twitter.

Lots of stories about how mass deportations will spike food prices and cause inflation. But as Tom Bonier noted, only one published before Election Day...
