Opinion: Greed is destroying forests and the environment in Northern Virginia
America’s rich people could have saved local journalism — and perhaps democracy. They refused. - "'Chicago’s wealthy class failed the city by refusing to rescue the Chicago Tribune from a hedge fund,' wrote Mark Jacob, a former Tribune editor.

"'We’re slowly replacing a functional press with PR spam, hedge fund dudebros, trolling substack opinion columnists, foreign and domestic disinformation, brand-slathered teen influencers, and hugely consolidated dumpster fires like Sinclair Broadcasting,' tweeted the tech journalist Karl Bode, as news of the vote circulated online."
Sen. Ted Cruz insulted a ‘woke, emasculated’ U.S. Army ad. Angry veterans fired back. - "'Ted Cruz is obviously sharing this video that I’ve seen bouncing around some of the most violent and anti-American Telegram accounts that I monitor,' he said. 'It just struck me as odd.'
