A hacker-built database gathered private and damaging information about Italy’s political elite to try to control them.

The Trump regime is going to continue to abuse its power by sending National Guard troops into our streets.

Although the Frog Army of Portland is undoubtedly well-prepared, we highly recommend reading up on how to interact with the Guard as it is different than engaging with ICE.

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.”

The cuts:

📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage)

📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage)

📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage)

📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)
