“WE. ARE. AT. WAR. And it echoes in the silence of legacy media, who would rather look away from the crumbling edges of democracy. Trump sold the government to a tech billionaire who has his sights on dismantling federal agencies to enrich himself”—yes, the Nazi salute billionaire.
I am very tired, but wrote this, quickly, to capture what I could since we live in the days of media erasure. Tonight there was a #protest at the #treasury and most #news did not see fit to cover it while it unfolded. I captured posts, video, and quotes as I could--I linked to @indivisible.org

The last line of this post, and his bit at the end where he catches himself before admitting "do we do things like that? Yes" is just so fun. He's squirming because he knows someone like Lina Kahn is excited to flip through some documents in a few years.

Sure, the government has a right to its own opinion, unencumbered by the First Amendment. It can spin what’s “the truth” however it wants.
But selectively attacking news organizations and possibly inciting imminent lawless action against individual reporters is a whole ‘nother level of deplorable.

You can reliably hang most every bad thing we have going to Reagan but every bad thing in the specific way they are bad today is, you guessed it, the War on Terror.
Jon Stewart on the Daily Show into getting folded into the fully realized 24 hour news cycle of the 90s is when I'd date it. Getting news from comedians becoming mainstream shifts comedians from gadflies to newsmakers. That made a lot more comedians take on the "cultural critic" role.

The U.S. poverty line for a family of four is $32,150.
However, investor Michael W. Green argues it should be more than four times higher, a threshold that would classify most American households as living “in poverty” by his measure.

An investor called $140,000 the new poverty line. Experts disagreed but said he had a point.
Michael Green’s tally of the costs of raising a family in the U.S. today is going viral, even if some economists scoff at his math.
