The Hound 5/19

Hi there,

It’s Monday. Today, we’re talking about cuts to health care, LGBTQ rights under attack, and election conspiracies entering classrooms.

We’re also tracking the release of Biden’s Hur interview audio — a year-old transcript recycled as a fresh scandal to distract from Trump’s legal chaos.

🖊️ Sign our petition to tell the media: Stop falling for Trump’s distractions.
