I asked @jimacosta.bsky.social what he'd tell his former colleagues at CNN and the other networks right now while Trump attacks free speech. He didn't hesitate: hang in there. Keep doing your jobs. Speak truth to power.

Just voted YES on the War Powers Resolution to end Trump's unfettered ability to wage war in Iran. It failed by one vote. One. Vote. Last time, the margin was worse. We're gaining ground and we'll keep at it until Congress does its job and upholds the Constitution.
The Iran war is costing 6x more than what we spend on food assistance for hungry Americans. Trump has decided we can't afford healthcare tax credits for hardworking Americans, but we can spend up to $2 billion a day dropping bombs in the Middle East.
Trump is letting his weird hatred of windmills get in the way of creating enough renewable energy to affordably power 20 million American homes. He’s standing in the way of lower prices and clean air.
Kristi Noem is out — but I'm not done holding DHS accountable. I refused to vote for another dime to fund Noem's lawless operations and supported her impeachment because she let her federal agents trample on Americans' constitutional rights with impunity. (1/2)
This week, I took to the floor of the House to mark the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. I will keep working to free the Armenian prisoners, end military aid to Azerbaijan, and ensure future generations learn the truth about what happened 111 years ago.
Taxpayer funding for Trump’s ballroom? Dead. And that’s not even the biggest fight this week. Today we vote on a war powers resolution to rein in his war with Iran. Here’s where things stand 👇
A lot of time has passed since West Hollywood’s Fire Station 8 served as the backdrop for the 70’s show Emergency. Technology has changed, and so have earthquake risks. (1/2)
We don’t have to accept constant dangerous car chases as the norm here in LA. Earlier today, I unveiled brand-new bipartisan legislation to put the brakes on reckless drivers and protect our families and law enforcement.
I've worked in too many places — Hollywood, the Legislature, and Congress — to stay silent while people in power take advantage of their staff.

Some people ask why parts of the trail don't run right next to the tracks. Sometimes a different route is less expensive, more scenic, or easier to access. The trail doesn't have to follow the tracks exactly. It just has to connect. The goal is a continuous trail across the county.
