Capital & Main’s video reporting reached millions of viewers in 2025, expanding our coverage of the most pressing issues facing our readers. Here are some of our most viewed, memorable and impactful videos of 2025: capitalandmain.com/from-fire-to...

It’s been a wild year. Here are some of my favorite photos and videos I took while documenting 2025.

Here's a Christmas story. Trump's assault on immigrants has disproportionately affected a group he claims to be aligned with: Catholics. Despite making up just 19% of the US population, Catholics make up over 60% of the folks vulnerable to deportation. My latest: capitalandmain.com/trumps-war-o...

I don’t ever want to hear anyone say “the raids aren't as bad.” this is the last 2 days. lataco.com/daily-memo-d...

Jake Paul Anthony Joshua? They let four guys box now?

Trump's FBI is so incompetent that they search for mass shooters the same way someone would look for a lost pet. Just put up some photos and hope someone has seen them.

Scenes from the week on the Olympus Mju x Kodak Gold

Read @nicolefoy.bsky.social's investigation that prompted the congressional probe. We found that agents had detained >170 Americans this year. More than 20 citizens said they were held for at least a day without being able to contact a lawyer or their loved ones.

Photo I took of my mom while visiting home for Thanksgiving on my Intrepid 4x5 camera. Developed and scanned at home.

Jimmie Duncan, who was on death row in Louisiana for 27 years for the murder of his former girlfriend's toddler, is free on bail following a @propublica.org + @veritenews.org investigation that examined the reliability of the key forensic evidence used to convict him.

SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars. She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Today I want to tell you about farmworkers. Specifically, the child farmworkers of California's Central Valley. As young as 12 years old. In a blue state that is failing to ensure their health and safety. Amazing investigation in 2 parts from our friends at @capitalandmain.bsky.social. Part I:

The City Council in Santa Fe, NM, voted to integrate the cost of housing in its calculation of the citywide minimum wage going forward. This marks the first time in the U.S. that a city has factored local housing costs directly into setting its minimum. capitalandmain.com/santa-fes-pl...

NEW for Ten Four: ChatGPT’s 4o sent numerous messages to minor users encouraging self-harm and suicide. One of several lawsuits says that Adam Raine, a 16-year-old boy, was told how to commit suicide moments before he took his own life. Part 1 of many this week! latenfour.com/2025/12/01/t...

Spectacular #longread on the history of the right-wing opposition in Venezuela, and how during Juan Guaido's shadow government an abominable legal strategy robbed the country of $30 billion destined for corporate claims holders. Amazing work from Moe Tkacik. prospect.org/2025/11/26/3...

Been carrying my Olympus Mju 140 around with me. Here are a few shots from the week.

How employers and labor groups are protecting their workers from ICE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWcO...

I also want to say, in response to the melodrama currently playing out at the highest levels of this industry— Scores of us understand the importance of maintaining our professional integrity while we work. We don’t burn sources, or fuck them for that matter. Ethics means something.

How employers and labor groups in LA have been organizing to protect vulnerable workers from ICE. My latest: capitalandmain.com/how-employer...

Employers, unions and advocacy groups are organizing to protect vulnerable immigrant workers from being targeted, detained and deported by federal agencies. Here’s how. Camera/Editor: Jeremy Lindenfeld Producers: JL, Cerise Castle #LosAngeles #LosAngelesNews #ICEinLA #Immigrants #Workers

1/ Today, ProPublica is running a piece I've been working on for a bit. It's about what happened with a devastating wave of bird flu earlier this year, as egg prices hit record highs. And it's a story that illuminates the ways the U.S. is failing to control what could become the next pandemic. 🧵

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Law enforcement physically attacked 72 journalists covering immigration in LA this year—more than double the city’s 2020 BLM protest total, according to the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker. lapublicpress.org/2025/11/indy...

79-year-old Paul Bojerski was born to Polish parents in a WWII German refugee camp. His family legally emigrated to the U.S. when he was 5. He’s been taken by ICE in Florida. www.orlandosentinel.com/2025/11/16/s...

There is still time to vote on Prop 50! If you need a quick explainer, here’s a video I made for @capitalandmain.bsky.social youtu.be/I0UAqzoB9_U?...

Hey LAPD, come pickup your shit off the streets of Echo Park. Sunset Blvd is littered w/ spent munitions. - 40mm foam rounds are the blue ones. - the black one is 37mm rubber bullet comes from a baton munition (seen below). Three rounds skip off the ground and hit people. (hand for reference)

‘I’ve Never Seen Anything Like it.’ Aggressive ICE Raids Led One Man to Ask: Should I Self-Deport? @jeremotographs.bsky.social capitalandmain.com/ive-never-se...

"As they approached the border [.], the atmosphere in the car grew silent." "When they crossed, González could think of only one thing to say — something he'd waited to exclaim during his months hunkered down in his [.] home: 'Fuck you, ICE.'" #California #USA #Mexico #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

I spent the last few months following Juan González, an undocumented Pasadena resident, as he contemplated self-deporting. Read about his journey here: capitalandmain.com/ive-never-se...

California Democrats are seeking to fight back against Republican gerrymandering efforts. Check out this Prop 50 explainer for Capital & Main.

Finally ended up developing and scanning my No Kings film

LOS ANGELES, CA—The main #nokings march is done over at city hall, but a sizeable crowd of a couple hundred has congregated at the intersection of Alameda and Commercial, where police have taped off the street away from the MDC

Bigger group pulled up to the federal detention center. Marched from a Home Depot from a couple of blocks away. #NoKings #LosAngeles

Im here in downtown Los Angeles where thousands of No Kings protesters have gathered to oppose Donald Trump.

I’ve been reporting on how the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration raids have shaken L.A. communities — including my daughter. In her nightmares, an immigration agent takes me away. New column by George B. Sánchez-Tello: capitalandmain.com/they-just-to...

Time magazine is owned by Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, who just came out as a Trump supporter and said it would be great if he sent the National Guard to invade San Francisco

Announcing: "The Psychedelic Syndicate: How Silicon Valley Used Veterans to Hijack the Psychedelic Industry" Now on @Psymposia's website in four parts. www.psymposia.com/psychedelic-...

Over the last year, our team at @psymposia.bsky.social has been nose-to-keyboard writing what amounts to a 200-page book about the influence and motivations behind the modern "psychedelic renaissance." "The Psychedelic Syndicate," cheers. www.psymposia.com/psychedelic-...

Took the 4x5 on the road this past week. Just developed and scanned the few shots I made. Definitely have to work on nailing focus more, but very excited to be diving into the new medium.

An outspoken antifascist US-born citizen was stopped from leaving the US. This should terrify you. (BTW, this is not to imply this is ok for non-citizens or naturalized citizens.)

Moonrise over Manzanar

Some sites along California’s 395

Took the large format film camera on some hikes today. Who knows if any of the photos turned out, but it was fun practicing.

Another beautiful day driving through Eastern California.

A few photos from today in Eastern California.

My film camera stopped working on the second day of my roadtrip, so it looks like this’ll be a mostly digital trip. Here’s the first digital photo from earlier today.

On a California roadtrip and yesterday I stopped at California City Correctional Facility – the largest ICE detention center in the state – and then Manzanar concentration camp, where thousands of Japanese Americans were forcibly interned during World War 2. We are repeating the sins of our past.
