DEADLOCH SEASON TWO IS OUT??? why did nobody tell me?

The journalists of the @latimes.com -- and Los Angeles in general -- deserve so much better than this

I went to Texas and wrote about the town of Dilley, which has more prison & detention center beds than residents, and 30 kids in a high school of 4,000 brave enough to protest ICE. nymag.com/intelligence...

why is the cemetery inviting my family to Denny's

me: (trying to talk on the phone to a friend) the 5-year-old: WHO IS THAT? me: my friend Dave 5-yr-old: IS HE KIND TO TEACHERS? DOES HE FOLLOW THE POOL RULES?

unfortunately I am not necessarily sure that DHS believes "lack of access to potable water" is a major barrier to holding thousands of people

just imagine this paskudnik in a televised debate against Ms. Rachel

Remember all the talk of healthy young people dying suddenly after COVID-19 vaccination? Our new study in @plosmedicine.org shows there's absolutely nothing to that. journals.plos.org/plosmedicine...

the 5-year-old: we don't say "oh shit," right? It's bad to say "oh shit"? Because "oh shit" is a bad word? me: uh, yeah ... 5-year-old: I will not say "oh shit"

NEW: The Trump administraiton has lost more than 7,000 immigration detention cases in recent months. Increasingly, DOJ is telling judges they have no argument to present or couldn't get facts from ICE to present in court. A look at this emerging trend. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

This cruelty is being done in our name. Shame on this administration. Shame. 13,000 third country deportees so far. Many were ordered deported decades or even generations earlier, but no admin previously would have considered something as inhumane as this as a means of carrying out a removal.

when I wrote investigative stories the headlines had to be reviewed by a lawyer! many people ONLY read the headline!

The NBC News story about Corey Lewandowski is very important. The GEO Group-related claims are astounding, and later reporting in the story suggests that those allegations were not some one-time thing. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Breaking: A U.S. district judge in Oregon said he will vacate a declaration made late last year by health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that asserted gender-affirming care for young trans people does not meet medical standards of care. www.statnews.com/2026/03/19/j...

Over the past year, pediatricians have seen a surge in parents who might once have been persuaded to accept vaccines but are now staunchly opposed, and parents who were fully on board but now are unsure. It'll take more than a court ruling to reverse that. From me and Dani Blum:

Good coverage from the @latimes.com and @markzbarabak.bsky.social www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

Recently the DOJ sued UCLA, arguing that we are such a "hotbed of campus antisemitism"—primarily because of pro-Palestinian student protests—that it's a hostile work environment for Jewish faculty and staff. Well, many actual Jewish faculty and staff vehemently disagree and we wrote this letter:

I know Megan, I trust Megan, and I believe Megan.

Washington Post executives were troubled to learn that a single story could cost...thousands of dollars. Thank god they weren't around during the WaPo's coverage of Watergate, CIA dark prisons, or any of the many other stories that helped changed the world. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/b...

A judge has blocked RFK Jr.'s changes to the childhood vaccine schedule and paused his appointments to the CDC's vaccine advisory panel.

Videos included DOGE members unable or unwilling to define DEI; discussing how they used ChatGPT and terms such as “black” and “homosexual” to flag grants for termination but not “white” or “caucasian,” and acknowledgements they failed to achieve the stated goal of lowering the government deficit.

NEW: They Didn’t Want to Have C-Sections. A Judge Would Decide How They Gave Birth. Two Florida women had to attend virtual court hearings while in labor to argue for their right to choose their own medical care. By @amyyurkanin.bsky.social

Pleased to be quoted alongside Sarah Yager in this piece. “The basic idea is that it’s both inhumane and counterproductive to execute people who have laid down their arms.” And an outrageous war crime to even announce you will do so. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/...

ICE detained a 9-year-old with severe autism and his mom for more than 80 days. The boy depends on daily therapy, but at Dilley, those supports vanished. Unable to understand why they couldn’t go home, he would cry through the night and hit himself, his mother told me. My latest for @nbcnews.com
