#WolffBites: Fact: 46% of New York City residents barely survive, need help beyond their income. The "great" economy Trump boasts about. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The number of people who have died in ICE custody since Trump took office again is at least 52.

What a beautiful moment.

🧵 WHAT U CAN DO TO PROTECT TEENS & REDUCE SV IN ALASKA: I’m really glad the OpEd I wrote w/ Scott Kendall & Bianca Cross (my fave detective to work w/ when I was a rape victim advocate) got published in @adn.com as soon as it did, bc time is of the essence w/ this bill. www.adn.com/opinions/202...

Not sure I've ever signed up to anything faster

If Democrats succeed in cutting taxes, they will finish the job the Republicans have started to eviscerate local funding for basic necessities like maintaining roads and parks.

ICE has detained over 6,200 children during President Donald Trump’s second term, according to recently released numbers analyzed by the Marshall Project. Advocates warn trauma from detentions will cause kids lifelong damage.

The whistleblower has posted footage from inside a JBS pork plant, showing broken equipment and a near-impossible working environment.

Another person has died in ICE custody. Tuan Van Bui, 55, died on April 1. ICE waited until the holiday weekend to say anything. At least 15 people have died in ICE custody this year.

Another great article from @lizszabo.bsky.social, this time about a study done regarding organizations like HHS purchasing ads on sites that spread misinformation. This happened during the Biden administration and is most likely the result of companies packaging ad buys.

this is the best movie I've ever seen in my life

American freelance journalist Shelly Kittleson was abducted Tuesday in central Baghdad by men affiliated with an Iran-backed Iraqi militia. Kiran Nazish writes that a suspect has been arrested and that a rescue operation is underway. www.cjr.org/analysis/she...

The lives of children in the US are worth so little that we allow mass shooters to murder them at school on a routine basis. But people in other countries aren't like that. They really care when someone bombs a school and kills hundreds of their kids.

Happy Friday, we are now ad-free at @prospect.org! 🎉

if you could teleport why would you teleport to Waffle House and not Old Town Cafe? This is how I know he's lying

why would you send me this press release

😍

Fascistic malignity.

The Trump administration is simultaneously obsessed with falling birth rates and with making sure more children die once they're born.

As a frequent buyer of physical media, I appreciate these lazy idiots outing themselves so that I never ever waste a single cent on anything they've ever created.

EXCLUSIVE: “Casualty Cover-Up”: The Pentagon Is Hiding U.S. Casualties Under Trump in the Middle East The Pentagon has sent outdated statements on the number of U.S. troops killed or injured during the Iran War, resulting in undercounts. theintercept.com/2026/04/01/i...

Our take on Vought’s latest mustache-twirling plan to destroy the CFPB. Americans who want their money back next time a bank, lender or app rips them off should call their members of Congress and tell them to restore the Bureau’s funding and stop Vought. CFPB. nteu335.org/2026/04/02/c...

Man I wish we were doing this instead of forever wars where we bomb and starve children to death

god damn it I hate that guy

They have killed at least 28 people in the field and 52 in custody since Trump retook the White House. These are minimum numbers.

The warehouse in Surprise is one of the purchases that went through, city officials have been nothing but complicit and the mayor said this week he has no intention of barring DHS from accessing city water for the concentration camp. Keep holding their asses to the fire.

Incredible and infuriating story today by my brilliant colleague @naomibethune.bsky.social at @prospect.org. Besides her deep reporting, I love her writing style. She's must-read.

Listen to @emmarjanssen.bsky.social discuss her piece here, she's on now!

news to the enslaved!

Important story about how our taxes fund Palantir. The two big California pensions alone, CalPERS and CalSTERS, hold well over $1 billion in the company's stock.

Oof. "The sale of EA is really about the decline of democracy in the United States and its replacement with a transnational oligarchy that can overwhelm any regulatory oversight with the power of sheer corruption."

If the Israeli Knesset members' lapel pins shaped as little nooses isn't where you say peace-out to that fascist state, you're just carrying residual nostalgia for some fantasy version of Israel that exists only in your head.

The image of Dr. Abu Safiya leaving Kamal Adwan Hospital and walking towards an Israeli tank in 2024 is burned into my brain. I think about him every day. I cannot imagine the horrors Israeli guards are subjecting him to.

We updated our immigration terror squad death and injury trackers. The numbers just keep going up. Fourteen people have died in ICE custody in this year alone. It's only March. Total number deaths in custody since Trump retook the White House is 52.

Well, the spokesperson for Bilt has now phoned me seven times in a row to complain about this story I wrote. He's not saying the information is inaccurate. He just doesn't like it.

I had the original Bilt card, which got converted to a Bilt 2.0 card. I tried paying my mortgage with it for a month to see if I could use it to rack up easy Alaska points. Bilt applied it all to principal (no interest) AND got the amount wrong, so I had to pay twice to make sure I didn’t default.

Huge news. The good people @deportationdata.org obtained updated ICE case records through a FOIA lawsuit. The dataset goes from October 2022 through *early March 2026.* deportationdata.org/data/ice.html

Exceptional reporting from my friend and colleague @emmarjanssen.bsky.social, whose fellowship at TAP is coming to an end soon. Somebody hire this outstanding reporter ASAP, you won't regret it!

Absolutely horrific details here. >> ... his mother discovered what appeared to be severe burns around and behind his knees, as well as a wound caused by a sharp object... doctors told them that the injuries were consistent with “signs of torture and cigarette burns.”

Please enjoy these photos of very good girl Luna.

man I hope the Mothman gets this guy someday

So proud to announce that detainees held at Alligator Alcatraz won their preliminary injunction and motion for class certification in challenging lack of access to counsel. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71155... /1

Very happy to see @mayor.nyc.gov issue this statement about the terrifying plot to assassinate Palestinian human rights activist Nerdeen Kiswani, one of Brooklyn's own. I'm relieved she is safe, too.

A new bill from @wyden.senate.gov and @balint.house.gov would give real teeth to an important federal law meant to protect journalists from searches and raids. We’re proud to endorse this update to the Privacy Protection Act.

god damn it's crazy to me when one single event obliterates the respect you have for a bunch of people all at once. like I know it happens but it's still wild you know?
