Volume LIV
Hello everyone,
This is our final volume before the election! We have a few pieces ready for you. First, Putin's puppet is living in our White House. Find out how Trump is backing Russia through oil purchases. Next, one of our wonderful staff writers returns with a personal piece on the American Dream and what it means for immigrant families. Then, we have a piece on what comes after authoritarianism and how Germany tried to leave behind the symbols of the Nazi regime. Our fourth article is a double-hitter for our Digital Ground Game newsletter writer to catch us all up on what happened in the primaries leading to this election.
Next, I want to shout out our wonderful staff editors who help us get this out and into your inboxes in a timely manner. You all rock! Our dev team has also been working tirelessly to build in new features and keep us current. Thank you!
Finally, I am stepping down from my position as Editor-in-chief, and Bryce will resume the position following the election. Thank you all for tuning in.
Go vote.
Best,
Cara, Editor-in-chief
