Gender-based violence and domestic violence prevention organizations are scrambling in the wake of the federal freeze, seeing it as a sign of what's to come. Some are proactively removing any information that they feel could risk federal grants. @19thnews.org 19thnews.org/2025/02/trum...

If you know and love RANGE you know part of our charm is our scrappiness. In that spirit, we are seeking donations of a few small to normal sized desks for our newsroom (right now we are cursed with small office, big desk, bad layout) and it's making it hard to work here! DM us if you can help :)

Interim US attorney Ed Martin, whose office just fired a bunch of J6 prosecutors, is now telling Elon Musk they will prosecute anyone who "targets" DOGE employees. Presumably this is in response to a Wired article naming some, and a protest at OPM that occurred yesterday.
