The Hound 9/29

 

Hi there, It’s Monday. Today we’re talking about Trump mobilizing hundreds of troops in Portland as part of his “full force” strategy, and the renewed threat of a government shutdown as Congress wrestles over budget deals, and more. We’re also tracking how media outlets too often celebrate data center expansion without mentioning the environmental, economic, and community harms. 🖊️ Add your name to demand coverage that examines the hidden costs behind Big Tech’s infrastructure push — not just the glossy headlines - I SIGNED & HOPE YOU'LL JOIN CIVIC SHOUT & SIGN AS WELL!
