They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow

As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled. This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

Trump was handed an awesome economy. He was handed the best, by far, post-Covid economy of ANY industrialized nation. He was handed an economy with employment way up, consumer spending way up, the markets way up, & inflation way down. And in only 7 weeks, he’s fucking it all up.

The 100 lowest-paying major US corporations spent $522B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2023. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned just $34k. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $14.7M. See the problem?

This is all illegal. It should also terrify you. These are police state tactics. Where is due process? What's the definition of "supporting Hamas?" Does it mean being pro-Palestinian? Anti-Israel? Anti-genocide? Using slogans the admin doesn't like? Who will they target next? It could be you.
