A resignation letter:
"We all saw it.
We all saw, with our own two eyes, people getting dragged like dogs and killed.
But we could not write one line about it on the newspaper.

I just left the Venezuela briefing.
It's worse than you thought.
Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people.
We need public Senate hearings NOW.

Zohran being peppered with questions about antisemitism and Israel -- despite being ethnically Indian, from Uganda, and having no connection to any militant Muslim organization -- is RACISM.
It's no different than badgering a Jewish candidate about "dual loyalty." Disgusting.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.
When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

Rand Paul has introduced a National Right to Work Act.
The bill is an attack on organized labor and workers across the country.
It would make it harder for workers to unionize, win good contracts, and maintain their unions.
