This suggests DOJ is continuing its investigation, which means one of two things:
1) DOJ *still* isn’t convinced they have all of the classified material Trump took when he left office.
2) They have an ongoing criminal investigation of this matter that could result in charges.

New: Interesting tidbit in the govt motion to leave the MAL search application sealed:
Prosecutors acknowledge they've been interviewing witnesses and say the release of the warrant application could "chill future cooperation by witnesses as
"investigation progresses." https://t.co/ZdkKbpV3lZ

To reduce emissions, Colorado officials want to cancel roadway expansions for interstates and arterials, and instead focus on upgrading transit, bike lanes, and sidewalks.
*This* is what climate leadership looks like.

Its hilarious because who does Whole Foods think its market is? Its not Dollar General or Wal-Mart.

Whole Foods has fired workers in 6 states for wearing Black Lives Matter apparel
The workers & NLRB say labor law protects their right to wear BLM apparel, but a Whole Foods lawyer told the NLRB that "President Trump referred to BLM as a 'symbol of hate'"

I think people apply very naive frames to these “trust in media” questions.
The key point IMO is that each individual media outlet has very strong incentives to portray “the media” as untrustworthy and to highlight bad work from competitors.
