Tim was the institutional memory and heart of the Post's graphics team. He's a talented, innovative colleague and leader who never once turned down a chance to chat or work together. Both a pro and a friend.

The Post was foolish enough to unleash a bevy of the world’s most talented multi-disciplinary journalists out there for their competition to scoop up. These are some of the most hard working and skilled people I know. Save this one and reshare it please! 📊

Of the 184 universities that made faculty diversity pledges, at least 108 have fully or partially rolled them back after a year under the Trump administration, according to a Post survey and analysis. Explore your university's diversity data here:

I think I'll have more to say tomorrow but for right now, just: @emilygiam.bsky.social *taught herself to code* so she could tackle all the cool stories she came up with on the sports beat. It's been amazing to have her as a teammate and a collaborator, and we're going to miss her a ton. 💜

Co-sign all of this; hire these amazing people! I'm happy to talk to a potential hiring manager about any of them

Alyssa is both a serious data journalist with immense technical chops and a super-talented visualization guru, figuring out all sorts of solutions to create the best storytelling approach. Plus she's a great collaborative partner :) Someone needs to hire her ASAP.

I expected the cuts would be bad but I'm honestly stunned and sickened seeing how many great journalists the Washington Post just lost. People who nailed huge investigations, documented war zones, exposed horrific crimes, dropped all at once for failures they did not cause.

We are so incredibly thrilled to receive this honor. Working on this project was one of the highlights of my career and I could not be more grateful to @ire.org and my entire team. Thank you to all my colleagues at @thebaltimorebanner.com and all of our readers and supporters.

One of these things is not like the other ...

U.S. Failed to Alert Judge to Press Law in Application to Search Reporter’s Home The Justice Dept. did not address a 1980 law that generally bars warrants for reporting material when it sought to seize a Washington Post reporter’s devices, an unsealed filing shows. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/u...

"Crisis." "Catastrophe." "Chaos." Just three words people used to describe the state of the Kennedy Center after Trump's announcement that he wants to close it for two years for construction. Our latest: www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

President Trump, through an array of allied groups, has stockpiled nearly $400 million. Meanwhile, Democrats lag well behind its counterpart in fundraising. Here are some of the biggest takeaways from the latest campaign finance report:

Remember that last year, the federal government inadvertently released 400 people's social security numbers in the JFK files: www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio... So basically they've learned nothing.

In many of the first generation of modern concentration camp systems (near the turn of the twentieth century), the vast majority of deaths were caused by disease and malnutrition. Most of the victims were women and children.

New: Just how furious are Americans about ICE? Sewing influencers, bourbon vloggers and the mod of r/catbongos are all taking a political stand. "I refuse to wake up in five or 10 years and look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘You had a platform and did nothing,'" a golf YouTuber told me

Unlike last year’s shutdown, this closure would not cover the entire federal government — only the portions that have not been funded by the six appropriations laws already enacted. wapo.st/4rlQ5F6

Welp this excellent story says that DHS has tools to get passwords, deleted files and into encrypted chats

Federal immigration officers across the country are newly equipped with an array of state-of-the-art surveillance technologies, thanks to a bill that transformed ICE into the country’s most highly funded law enforcement agency. Here’s a look at their arsenal:

ICE says it detains the "worst of the worst." Meet Liam Ramos, age 5.

Breaking news: Government officials may not examine electronic devices seized from Post reporter Hannah Natanson until litigation stemming from the search of her home is settled, a federal judge ruled.

“The outrageous seizure of our reporter’s confidential newsgathering materials chills speech, cripples reporting, and inflicts irreparable harm every day the government keeps its hands on these materials,” The Post said in a statement. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Glad to see @rcfp.org acting quickly to push for the unsealing of the search warrant that allowed FBI agents to enter a @washingtonpost.com reporter's home yesterday and do "a search with dramatic implications for a free press and the constitutional rights of journalists."

Setting aside the reversal of policy and the possibly deliberate scare message, reporters need to adjust their threat models and get their operational security nailed down. The stakes are extremely high. Gift link from the marketing people. wapo.st/4pFh6lw

The Post analyzed hundreds of conversations to see how businesses navigated economic changes in 2025 — and found that corporate leaders struck a more optimistic tone as the year progressed, even as consumers soured on the economy.

We (well, @alyssafowers.bsky.social, @federicacocco.bsky.social and @aarongregg23.bsky.social!) analyzed hundreds of earnings calls and found that executives are talking WAY differently about the economy than the public, and painting a far more optimistic view: www.washingtonpost.com/business/int...

It’s such an honor to work in the same newsroom as @hannahnatanson.bsky.social, her incredible coverage of federal workers this year has been nothing short of inspiring. I stand with her 100%. Everyone should read her piece on the toll this work can take: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Breaking news: A frame-by-frame analysis of video footage from a deadly encounter in Minneapolis between ICE agents and a 37-year-old woman raises questions about accounts from officials like Homeland Security Secretary Kristi L. Noem.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Reporters! If you're covering the wake of the CDC overhauling childhood vaccines today, we've made clean kindergarten vaccination-rate data available for schools and districts in 36 states, and county-level data for 44 states. Get it here: github.com/washingtonpo...

Kids back to school today? It's a good time to check on how protected they are from measles. In a massive effort, @caitlingilbert.bsky.social @laurenweberhp.bsky.social & @moriartymaps.com collected vaccination data from ~46,000 public + private schools in the US. You can search it here:

The D.C. region saw the largest increase in home sale listings of any major metro area, according to the Brookings Institution. 2025 has changed the “trajectory of the District’s economy,” said one expert. Here's why:

ICE is moving away from focusing on arresting migrants at local jails to tracking them down in communities as the Trump administration presses to increase deportations, a Post analysis found. The result: a huge surge of at-large arrests.

For our new visual investigation into how night vision and city lights may have played a part in the DCA crash we flew a drone along the helicopters route, filmed incoming planes through night vision goggles, and analyzed it all within a 3D model of Washington, D.C. Watch here wapo.st/4atdTBI

The brightness of the DC skyline (National Harbor has gotten 3x brighter in a decade) and lights from inbound aircraft may have contributed to the deadliest US airline crash in 20 years.

Simple, low-cost solutions could bring down America's soaring rate of pedestrian deaths, but states and cities have been slow to adopt them. Here's what one city is doing: wapo.st/48OlcTt

A reminder that ticket sales have dropped wildly at the Kennedy Center since Trump took over. @jeremybmerrill.com, @travismandrews.bsky.social & Shelly Tan found sales from Sept. through late Oct. were down 43% for performances in the three main theaters: www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

When Trump launched his crime emergency — taking over D.C. police for 30 days and deploying National Guard troops into city streets — he said he wanted to combat “out of control” crime. Here's the lasting impact of Trump’s federal surge on one D.C. neighborhood wapo.st/4s4VMIF

This is an amazing story: www.wsj.com/tech/ai/anth...

The Washington Post (dream team of @emilygiam.bsky.social, @katiperry.bsky.social & @arturgalocha.bsky.social) has created a metric to calculate precisely how happy — or miserable — fans of each major college football program should be based on their team’s résumé. See how your school fared:

A sign of Donald Trump's attempts to dramatically expand presidential authority: he's used executive orders -- bypassing Congress and traditional legislative action -- more this year than he did in his entire first term. From @ence.bsky.social @emilydavies.bsky.social & @cqzakrz.bsky.social:

As part of our TikTok project, we are mailing each of the 1,100 people who shared data with us their own personal view of our map of TikTok content. Like this user, who watched a lot of Disney and rage bait (with stops on cat peninsula and Taylor Swift island): www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...

What "side" of social media are you on? @jeremybmerrill.com, @fox.computer & Leslie Shapiro made a tool to allow you to see what content is most similar to what you see - and what's least likely to cross your feed. I get a lot of running and reading content: www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...

We used 1,100 real users' data to help re-create TikTok’s algorithm, and then made a map, allowing you to explore the hidden divides that decide what content you see - and what you don't. Awesome work by @fox.computer, Leslie Shapiro & @jeremybmerrill.com: www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...
