I wrote about how Trump is treating presidential power like it's his own possession and using it to punish blue states — but also about how at least he's promised lots of cash for all of us. www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

WE WON A PULITZER! A big first for @thebaltimorebanner.com & @nytimes.com Local Investigations Fellowship. Thank you to so many, especially those who trusted us with their stories, however painful or risky it may have been for them to share, because they knew it could make a difference.

Gwen Snyder is uncivil @gwensnyder.bsky.social · 14/03/2025
So am I understanding correctly that the GOP threatened to defund DC of its own money if they didn't tear up the BLM thing And then DC tore up the BLM thing And now the GOP is defunding them anyway

It was small and musty, and the projector never quite aligned with the screen, but where else could you watch an old Scorsese film with three generations of moviegoers for $5 on a Tuesday night? :’) www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

ABC News has now fully taken down the old 538 website, including all interactive projects since 2014. Aside from erasing history this prevents access to publicly released data, including raw polls, averages, model estimates & story dta. Totally unacceptable for a company (allegedly) doing journalism
