The Hound 9/30

Hi there,

It’s Tuesday. Today we’re talking about a looming government shutdown after budget talks collapsed, a massive settlement from YouTube, and more.

We’re also tracking how right-wing media’s overblown coverage of Portland is being used to justify federal force deployment.

🖊️ Add your name to demand media stop amplifying fear as fodder for militarized politics.
