Trump said his war with Iran is "nearing completion" and could be over in the next 2-3 weeks. But also, maybe not! He's said this before and we're still at war. I did not hear anything new tonight.

The impact of Trump’s immigration crackdown on mothers is particularly pronounced, our analysis found: Moms of U.S. citizens have been deported at about four times the pace under the Biden administration.

Just so everyone knows, the Solicitor General straight up lied about the 1921 law review article he kept talking about. quick thread:

Great account that highlights the longstanding cruelty of our immigration system, the difference between legally belonging + acceptance, & the stakes at the Supreme Court today. Eliminating birthright citizenship will entrench a caste system of haves & have nots that will destroy upward mobility.

When Bondi took over, the DOJ declined to prosecute a staggering 23,000 criminal cases, including those stemming from yearslong investigations into charges of terrorism, white collar crime and drugs. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

After Claudia Goldin became the first woman to win a solo Nobel in economics, she got hundreds of invitations. She accepted three. One was advising WNBA players on a labor deal. She helped players land the biggest % raise in US sports history. www.wsj.com/economy/wnba...

If you're interested legacy media's failures in addressing authoritarianism, I urge you to read these two pieces by @sulliview.bsky.social. 1/ margaretsullivan.substack.com/p/america-ha...

NEW: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been transforming a government that long championed vaccines into one that questions their safety. This is what could happen over the next 25 years if shots are unavailable even to the people who want them.

Denaturalizations are incredibly rare , historically. This Trump administration just announced two today. justthenews.com/government/f...

My question to House Speaker Mike Johnson: How is sending 2,000 troops to Iran different from boots on the ground? Johnson "The build up of troops is very different than boots on the ground. We don't have boots on the ground. I don't think that's the intention."

What we counted: Every day, an average of 50 US citizen kids have had a parent detained. How did we do it? Our reporting included linking FOIA data to ICE flight manifests (research by Gabriel Sandoval) and interviews with ~two dozen affected families 5/

I took a closer look at the ProPublica union’s vote to strike, including their demand for protection from AI-related layoffs. The vote marks the first time a major U.S. newsroom has authorized a strike, at least in part, over AI protections. www.niemanlab.org/2026/03/prop...

@obedmanuel.bsky.social perfectly captures in this essay how so many immigrants in the US are feeling in this moment. Going back to our homelands is not self-deportation. thebarbedwire.com/2026/03/24/d...

Jfc. That’s nearly 10 times more the undocumented population. 100 million people deported would mean possibly naturalized immigrants and then maybe next all the mouthy women of voting age to make the rest of the quota

A processing unit at TPC's Port Neches butadiene manufacturing plant exploded in on November 27, 2019, the eve of Thanksgiving Day, fire raged for weeks at the facility. 60,000 residents were forced to evacuate. My folks refused leave, more frightening than any high Cat hurricane.

Today, we wrote to @propublica.org’s board of directors to inform them that our unit overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike and urge them to instruct management to agree to a fair contract now. Read our letter here: www.propublicaguild.org/updates/to-t...

NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵 www.propublica.org/article/trum...

This is my hometown and it’s the second time a major refinery has exploded in 7 years.

Media literacy note: This woman isn’t being prosecuted “under Georgia’s abortion ban,” as some outlets claim. If that were the case, she’d be facing charges of “criminal abortion”—not murder. Any publication that prints that isn't a reliable source. More: www.autonomynews.co/montana-20-y...

NEW: We have seen DOJ secure a search warrant to seize ballots in Georgia and a subpoena to seize ballots in Arizona. Now a sheriff is seizing ballots in California. This is a crisis unfolding in real time. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

As a @propublica.org alum, I urge its leadership to talk seriously with staffers about guardrails around the use of AI in the newsroom. This seems like a solvable issue. Solidarity with my former colleagues @propublicaguild.org

ProPublica’s work has never been more important. We don’t want to strike, but we need a FAIR CONTRACT.

I love working at @propublica.org and i don't want there to be a strike. But i still voted in favor of authorizing one because the looming risk of an imminent walkout may be the only way to get management to take our demand for a fair contract seriously. Read more 👇

1/ Today, we overwhelmingly voted to authorize a STRIKE as we fight for a fair contract with @propublica.org.

😂🎯

Thank you for your support, Elon Green. We hope our leaders hear us, their employees. 92% of our unit voted in favor of striking which is an escalation we didn’t take lightly. We don’t have to walk if management comes back with a decent offer.

"After being held in isolation for about five days. Rodríguez was forced to strip naked in a shower while an officer "poured some kind of chemical liquid on her head, which seemed to be something used to clean floors and burned her eyes,” the filing read."

Excellent @propublica.org reporting (disclaimer: I’m interviewed) DOJ is prosecuting migrants for crossing into “National Defense Area.” Problem? NO proof of mens rea and often lack evidence crossed into area. Chief magistrate judge: DOJ’s conduct is “very, very disturbing.” 1/🧵

"Pregnancy is the only condition where FL courts have ruled that a patient can be forced to undergo unwanted treatment.Even a state prisoner on a hunger strike has more rights to make medical decisions.

This makes me so happy. This film, anchored by Michael B. Jordan’s performance, is so deeply meaningful to so many of us. Lovely to see this upright, talented young man recognized for his superb portrayal. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Only six Black men have won Best Actor. Michael B Jordan is the 6th. Wow.

This interview with the great @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social was a "wow" moment for me. Thanks, New York Times and David Marchese. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/m... I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.

About 3 months ago, I relocated from Minneapolis to NYC to take a new role as the host of ProPublica's forthcoming podcast. Very bizarre timing on my part. BUT! We've been quietly building something and here are the incredible audio superstars who're on the team: www.propublica.org/atpropublica...

Look at these charts. TransUnion and Experian, two of the three major credit bureaus, have started dismissing a larger share of consumer complaints without help. The timing coincides with the Trump administration’s dismantling of the CFPB. www.propublica.org/article/cred... @joeljacobs.bsky.social

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there. They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

NEW: Believe it or not, it’s that time of year: the Wisconsin Supreme Court election is next month. Liberals have a huge opportunity: if they win, they can lock down the majority of this court thru 2030. That means they’d have it in the next presidential race, a big democracy guardrail. Share:
