Donald Trump's decision to bar the Associated Press today from entering the Oval Office was the latest, and most significant attack on the free press since he took office.
We need a strong independent media to take on Trump.
I will never back down.

This is true. I've seen it happen to a friend of mine in Seattle. She doesn't have a single memento or photograph of her childhood, her parents, or her children anymore. Not a single thing. They erased her whole self.
When cities clear homeless encampments, workers often take people’s belongings — including important documents, survival gear and irreplaceable mementos.
Over and over, people across the U.S. told ProPublica they were devastated by such losses: https://propub.li/3WScD3g

Laws. The word you're looking for here is "laws."

But people who have known Musk for years say his single-minded willingness to break [Highlighting begins] rules [Highlighting ends] in service of a larger mission is unparalleled. He once told Tesla employees they would lose stock options if they joined a union — a comment deemed an unlawful threat by the National Labor Relations Board and the courts.

Rubies and emeralds owe their vibrant colors to the same element: chromium. The crystal structure determines whether it appears red or green. A chemist explains:
Why are rubies red and emeralds green? Their colors come from the same metal in their atomic structure
Even though emeralds and rubies are very different colors, they both have the same secret ingredient in their atomic structure.
