An important reminder ⤵️ that the Trump WH is a propaganda machine above all else. Be smart about those ‘trade deal announcement’ stories & headlines on Thurs. It’ll likely be an all hat, no cattle move like usual so we need journalism, not stenography.

Vance: "Which regime in the world has civil nuclear power and enrichment without having a nuclear weapon? The answer is - no one." Germany, Netherlands, Brazil and Japan all have civil nuclear power and the ability to enrich uranium. None have nuclear weapons.

Someone just asked why we're buying apple juice from China when we have apple surpluses here sometimes. In addition to not having the processing infrastructure, if we were to try and replace the apple juice we import (~430 million gallons) we'd need to grow an additional 15 billion apples per year.

President Trump has issued an executive order seeking to block all federal funding to NPR. This is the latest in a series of threats to media organizations across the country. Whatever changes this action brings, NPR’s commitment to reporting the news – without fear or favor – will never change.

Don’t look away. This is what Libya’s migrant detention facilities look like. This is what Trump is doing. Amnesty International called Libya’s migrant detention centers a “hellscape,” where beatings and sexual violence are rampant and there are many reports of trafficking and even slavery.

Recently some MOC have said their Republican colleagues privately acknowledge Trump is not acting in the best interest of the US. Why aren’t they naming & shaming those colleagues? Crimes are being committed & protecting people who are protecting someone who is doing illegal things is also illegal.
