Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

When @dhudgins.bsky.social and I created this “Credibility Pyramid” 4 yrs ago, we were taken to task by educators who couldn’t let go of “source” as the sacred cow of #infolit. Now, I see many of those same ppl lamenting that they can no longer teach kids that .gov websites are trustworthy.
