If you’re in the US, you can watch PBS for free using the app. There’s a series of documentaries called American Experience that’s really good—each is about a different event in history. Go watch The one about the Gilded Age in season 30. It feels so familiar, it’s genuinely eerie.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

Freeland: Our retaliation is going to be a lot more surgical than that. We are going to go after American stakeholders who matter to The White House. I have proposed a 100% tariff on all Teslas. I am calling on all the countries that are affected by this tariff to join us

Treasury Department officials admitted today that the agency “mistakenly” and “briefly” gave a member of Musk’s DOGE team the power to alter a sensitive federal payments database. The disclosure undercuts the Trump administration’s repeated claims that access was limited to a “read-only” basis.

I read that workers are not showing up to pick crops in the fields and it got me thinking - What if all farm workers stopped showing up to work and halting food production all across the country. It could be very influential. W/o them we only have a 2 day supply of milk across the whole country.

The Trump tariffs can't be explained with dumbness alone. There's an ideological component. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYze...

Parents don’t forget to check on your kids over the next few weeks/months. The news is going to be kinda dramatic for awhile and it can be a lot to process.
