Millions of Americans are literally starving, so why are we bailing out corporations that are LAYING US OFF? How about this instead: a #PeoplesBailout in response to the #coronavirus crisis. peopleoverprofits.indivisibl….
In the U.S., demand for food assistance is rising at an unprecedented rate, just as food banks are being struck by shortages of both donated food and volunteer workers nyti.ms/2wtxXn0
50-Year-old Volvos are cool, but one Seattle mechanic thinks making them electric is better for the planet. via @Hagerty hagerty.com/articles-videos/…
Why the 2020 Land Rover Defender looks the way it does is no accident. It looks like an iconic Defender, yes, but it's a far cry from the last version's militaristically reductive design. #landrover #defender #automobilityla coolhunting lnkd.in/ebBAPAq

When @volvocars' new all-electric XC40 Recharge debuts next year it'll be entering a crowded field. Still, 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds, AWD and FREE electricity for a year is enticing. coolhunting.com/design/volvo… via @coolhunting volvocars.us/2BmujtR

New Paltz undocumented immigrant Luis Martinez is free from jail - and the judge’s ruling calls Trump’s ICE cruel and careless, and suggests they may have lied to the court. therivernewsroom.com/2019/06… via @rivernewsroom
My first story for the Wall Street Journal covers the breadth of digi-fy-ing backyard tech, from Wi-Fi grills to 4KTVs that can brave any storm. wsj.com/articles/the-backyar… via @WSJ @Sonos @TraegerGrills

Here's a story about one undocumented man's life I've been working on for months. It's important—it shows how ICE is shattering families deeply embedded in small-town communities. This is why local journalism matters. bit.ly/2urETw2 @Chronogram @LuminaryMedia
