The Trump admin. is openly threatening PBS and NPR. This is how @newshour opened its program on Monday. The network accurately reported how Trump's tariffs will hurt Americans. This is journalism. This is courage.

Because they’re Black, they must be looting? This isn’t an honest mistake.
Spread truth, not lies: These folks weren’t looters. This footage is from KTLA, where the homeowner explained that her brothers & friends were helping her move belongings out of her burned house.

If you don’t have a local library card, it should be your New Year’s resolution to get one. It’s an easy resolution to keep and you’ll actually use it, trust me.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.
That is a lie.
The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.
