Morning Roundup: The Undaunted and the Conflicted

We introduce the conclusion of this long, consequential week by honoring our Undaunted figure(s).

And finally, for a slightly different perspective on Elon, enjoy this week’s installment of our favorite comic, Ruben Bolling, and Tom the Dancing Bug:
Be sure to check back in throughout the day for rigorous journalism, cookie recipes, Superbowl-prep, and our Contrarian Pet of the Week…

Evening Roundup: On Unions, Civil Rights, Public Health, and more!

IMPORTANT -- Language: We need an easy way to identify information coming from the current administration vs. former administrations.

This is disappointing me. I want to read facts with informed analysis, but the adjectives you include, like “creepy” oligarch, makes me not trust your neutral reporting. I don’t mind the occasional joke post, but overall, I’m looking for what you can’t find on msnbc or cnn or fox: unrelentless commitment to the truth, educating us with facts and perspective. I’m so tired of the adjectives.
