For more than a week, Amazon has managed to keep a death at its Troutdale, Oregon, facility out of public view. Workers I spoke to are pissed.

“The federal government had access to that video within hours of the shooting on Jan. 14, the Minneapolis police chief said. Yet prosecutors did not watch the footage, an official said, until nearly three weeks after they filed charges against the two men.”

may this be the beginning of something

Royer Perez-Jimenez was 19 years old. He died by suicide at 3am on March 16 at Glades County Detention Center in Florida. He is the 2nd person to die in ICE custody this week, the 13th this year, and the 42nd under Trump. 🧵

You could—I believe in my heart of hearts—perform the entirety of Musgraves’ album Golden Hour at karaoke and no one would be upset at all. The whole bar would affirm your artistic choice. You would get phone numbers and a few ranch waters. You would be invited to the Tucson Gem Show.

Breaking news: A jury convicted people who protested outside an ICE facility in Texas of providing material support to terrorists, and other charges in a closely watched case in which the gov't argued the protesters were "Antifa". www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

A man who was shot by Connecticut police last year and later died had to wait 10 extra minutes for another ambulance to arrive at the scene, after another officer having an anxiety attack took the first one.

“Journalists and researchers from Bellingcat, The New York Times, The Associated Press and CNN analyzed satellite images, verified videos and U.S. statements about military positioning and found that the U.S. likely carried out the attack.” www.poynter.org/fact-checkin...

I feel this strongly: I don't care. I am DISGUSTED that 175 little girls are dead and that thousands are dead across the region and that 1 million people are displaced in Lebanon alone. THIS IS EVIL.

Iranian journalist reports in front of the flames of a burning Oil depot.

This has nothing to do with the specific content here, but Polymarket adopting the language of news, here with BREAKING, and with Texas election results earlier this week, is BAD. Polymarket is not and will never be a news org or break news. It's a betting app. It's Draft Kings for sociopaths.

green is better change it back

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.

Amazon's latest data center construction outside Canton is one of a fleet of data centers announced statewide. Additional data centers are planned for Lauderdale & Rankin counties, & a third Amazon facility is planned for Vicksburg. Elon Musk's xAI is also building a data center in DeSoto County.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

NEW: The FBI has been unable to access a Washington Post reporter’s seized iPhone because it was in Lockdown Mode, a sometimes overlooked feature that makes iPhones broadly more secure, according to recently filed court records.

“You don’t have to torture people. They’re not going anywhere—they’re on a plane.” A private equity–owned airline is profiting from Trump’s migrant crackdown. Now, ICE deportation flights are getting longer and crueler as a result.

American-made munitions have played a significant role in Israel’s operations in Gaza. Bellingcat has collated scores of incidents where the remnants of US-made munitions have been found in the aftermath of Israeli strikes. Read here: www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/01...

Im deeply angry and sad about this

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

In a wide-ranging interview this week with the Chicago Sun-Times and WBEZ, Marimar Martinez discussed her shooting, the federal government’s failed attempt to prosecute her and the role she now sees for herself in a fight for accountability.

University of Illinois college republicans advocate for executing protesters as “traitors” with art that takes a disturbing killing and makes it even more extreme. dailyillini.com/news-stories...

This is wild

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning I was sent this video of agents at her door:

americans hate it when they're shown on tv doing something cool

Springsteen and Bragg got new tunes out this week. My favorite in the vein is Robeson’s classic version of Joe Hill. "The Copper Bosses killed you Joe; They shot you Joe" says I "Takes more than guns to kill a man" Says Joe "I didn't die" Says Joe "I didn't die"

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.
