Let's make this birthday one to remember.

67 years old (Born on April 13, 1957)

Happy Birthday, Amy Goodman! May your day be filled with more excitement than a breaking news story and fewer interruptions than a heated political debate. Your fearless reporting—from bravely covering the East Timor independence movement in the '90s to tirelessly hosting Democracy Now!—has inspired countless viewers (and probably terrified quite a few politicians).

Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy as you've brought clarity and truth into our lives. Keep asking those tough questions—we promise we'll keep tuning in for answers. Cheers to another groundbreaking year of investigative journalism—and remember: democracy needs cake too!
