Portugal is taking online disinformation and fake news seriously. As part of a broader attempt to encourage media literacy, it’s offering 15-18 year olds a free digital subscription to a range of respected newspapers and magazines as well as online upstarts that don’t spread lies. (Monocle)

This should be one of the biggest corruption scandals in our lifetimes. If Biden or Obama ever did this, they'd be calling for their arrest, and their immediate impeachment and removal. Trump should be impeached and removed.

if the president’s lackeys can functionally seize control of treasury funds and dismantle a congressionally-created agency without consequence, it’s not that it’s a constitutional crisis as much as it means the constitution is vapor.

This is the energy we need in the Senate right now. President Trump can’t do blatantly illegal things and expect a normal confirmation process. He wants to screw our systems to enrich corrupt billionaires? We will defy the norms for THE PEOPLE.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
