At some point, someone in the news media might remember that ant*fa is short for ant*fa**ist. It's not a group or a network. I'll leave you to ponder why some folk are opposed to those who oppose fa**ism. As George Clinton would say, "Think. It's not illegal yet."

🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 for all who lost loved ones in these horrible, preventable crashes. As a frequent flyer, Ima need more than 'DEI did it' to feel confident in air travel. We need clear solutions like hiring back the air traffic controllers 47 had fired. Yeah, those workers. The ones that were keeping us safe.

Coverage of 47 policies and impacts is lacking. The crashes were preventable tragedies with more firings ahead. Where's the investigative journalism, the in-depth coverage and analysis? We need more than partisan banter and punditry. We need news that informs/connects the dots now more than ever.
Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.
This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.
