Congress eliminated public media funding, and the president signed it into law. At a time of deep division, public media brings us together.

Help keep it strong. Join our monthly donors today: n.pr/458sOhq

Boasberg: Tomorrow by Noon give me the info that I previously ordered and also include a written declaration about the third flight.

Also Boasberg: โ€œand I will memorialize all of this in written form because apparently my oral orders donโ€™t carry much weight.โ€

We came for the new Google Store opening in Santa Monica, at 3rd and Broadway, and suddenly found ourselves at the intersection of democracy, fascism, Waymo and Tesla

So why don't Republicans sponsor a bill that automatically registers all, and only, American citizens who are eligible to vote? Surely the DOGE wizards can design such a system and make it foolproof.

If youโ€™re in the US, you can watch PBS for free using the app. Thereโ€™s a series of documentaries called American Experience thatโ€™s really goodโ€”each is about a different event in history.

Go watch The one about the Gilded Age in season 30.

It feels so familiar, itโ€™s genuinely eerie.

Tariff trouble? Nebraska companies, farmers trapped in middle of brewing trade war The recent Trump administration tariffs imposed on that country means that the animal feed company will now pay more for a feed additive for pigs and chickens, a product that can lead to healthier ani...

Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts.

And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think
