Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Portugal is taking online disinformation and fake news seriously. As part of a broader attempt to encourage media literacy, it’s offering 15-18 year olds a free digital subscription to a range of respected newspapers and magazines as well as online upstarts that don’t spread lies. (Monocle)

Mexico is suing Google over renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. Only 6% of the Gulf of Mexico is in the USA, Donald Trump has no right to rename it. It is going to be a costly loss for Google.

We want to take a moment to talk about tariffs because honestly, we didn’t realize how bad it was getting until we started comparing notes with friends and family. Stores across the country are already raising prices, and some of the increases are steep.

An anniversary worth marking. I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

Project 2025 says Sesame Street is "biased left". Is that because it has Black and Brown people, or because they teach kids empathy, or because the characters can read?

I won’t be lectured by millionaires and high earners about what working class people want. This is why people are turning away from (or not voting) Labour. It is, as ever, a Labour policy and comms issue. Immigration has fuck all to do with it. They’re woefully out of touch.
