This will sound as absurdist as this letter but did Trump get rejected from Columbia at some point? I have my issues with the school (didn't pay me for 4 months, my mom was an employee and got treated like shit, have issues with the J-school) but this is INSANE.

Quite literally every single line of this State of the Union is a lie and/or has a factual error. The other sentences are not just political bluster, they are propaganda.

To say this is absolutely insane is an understatement.

journalists abandoning obligations to their fellow citizens for purist "objectivity" has been one of the most corrosive forces acting on our democracy

This is a prime example of why shutting down USAID isn't just bad for its staff, the slew of contractors in the DMV region, or recipients those on the right, and even center, don't seem to care about. It also affects American agriculture to a much larger degree than most Americans realize.

a MILLION times this. all journalists are activists. the very act of journalism is activism. you think people should know about a thing that happened, so you write about it. but it's only seen as "activism" if it goes against the status quo. working to maintain the status quo is still activism!!!!!

"It’s a familiar Silicon Valley mindset, the reason startups are forever reinventing a bus, or a bodega, or mail. It’s the implacable certainty that if you’re smart at one thing you must be smart at all of the things." www.wired.com/story/doge-i...

Does your local library do something special for #AANHPIMonth? Have you talked to your librarians about it as a patron or community partner? Are they featuring banned books by AAPI authors? Maybe events on AAPI immigration? I 💖 librarians I would love to hear about all of this for @slj.com!

Trying to reiterate to myself that rejection is redirection but it's hard on the days you get multiple job rejections.

“By refusing to call figures like Patel what they are, the press is failing its duty to inform the public-and, frankly, it is enabling the further erosion of democratic norms.”

I see Kash Patel was narrowly confirmed and to say Indian Americans are embarrassed is an understatement. I can see him putting cases on every brown girl who ever rejected him. Also this is a really funny bit about him from Nimesh Patel www.instagram.com/reel/DFgKojO...

Editors: I am in a strange and unique position right now of having both deep reporting experience and years working in global trade/the legal side of logistics before becoming a journalist. If there's a story you've been looking to assign or a pitch you'd like to see, please message me!

What a series by that Eagles defense. Sacks by Josh Sweat and Jalyx Hunt followed by Cooper DeJean’s pick-six. Arguably the best defensive series in franchise history.

I think America could use a Philly win. It's essential in a 2025 that has been full of some darkness. Rooting for an underdog against a team that's already had their moments in the sun isn't just romantic, it's a necessity right now.

I can't imagine how different the world would be if people had screamed like this when NEH and NEA were slashed, when entire humanities departments started vanishing, when we decided we didn't need to teach history or lit or culture or language. We might still have a country.
