“Do not bow down to a tyrant...” “Do not give in to the lies “ “Do not give up hope” Thank you, @Acosta for standing up for the truth and democracy when so many others in media have bent the knee. We’ve got your back!
Jim Acosta’s goodbye message on CNN is a powerful reminder of the importance of truth in journalism. Unlike many others, he never backed down from holding power accountable or calling out the lies, especially in the face of Trump’s attacks on our democracy. At The Seneca Project, we stand with @Acosta and thank him for his unwavering commitment to integrity.

Republicans are against: $ for sick vets, clean energy, making corps currently paying nothing pay something, cap on RX cost, contraception, gay marriage. ... what IS their problem?

Unchecked climate change will drive up food prices, shrink water supply, and cost the United States billions of dollars in disaster response. It's fiscally irresponsible to delay climate action.
“In Italy, the hot and dry conditions are expected to destroy a third of the seasonal harvest of rice, corn, and animal fodder—at a minimum. Locusts have descended on the island of Sardinia in the worst invasion in three decades.” grist.org/agriculture/heatfl…

The argument is wrong that we should not charge a former President or we will become a banana republic. We will BE a banana republic if we ignore an illegal coup by a former president.

It's very difficult to understand how one could believe all the things Mitch McConnell is saying and yet refuse to exercise one's own power to actually do something about it

I recommend people, especially journalists, read this essay by @jenzerb. She is clearly talking about James Bennet & his tenure at The Atlantic. Her allegations are disturbing but sadly far too common across multiple industries. jenzerb.medium.com/i-left-my…
