A couple of weeks ago I flew home to the Marianas and this is what I saw: https://t.co/MMO1dhpDiu

Picked up my notebook this morning — full of notes from a recent reporting trip — and got hit with another wave of grief over all the stories that now won't be told. I'm looking for work, preferably in Kyiv, should anyone need a dogged, empathetic reporter. DM/email.

I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.

Despite promising to hire all employees, Carpenter wants to make layoffs that would significantly affect the newsroom - and the community we provide news with every day. We are fighting for our journalists, including over layoffs, to gain a fair contract.

Blue Cross had refused to pay thousands of claims for the center’s patients, but on several occasions execs at the insurance company had signed special one-time deals with the center to pay for their wives’ cancer treatment.

UPDATE: The Everett NewsGuild is calling on Herald subscribers to support their contract fight as Carpenter Media Group continues to offer low wages and tie meager raises to story quotas. (1/5)

While ICE agents can note in their database if someone they’ve investigated turns out to be a citizen, they are not required to do so.

As a result, records are often wrong and left uncorrected even after agents have been told of a mistake.

Pacific nations like the RMI, least to blame for the climate crisis, are leading with ocean solutions grounded in traditional knowledge and science

From @ahofschneider: More than 17,000 acres around the Klamath River in Northern California, including the lower Blue Creek watershed, have returned to the Yurok Tribe, completing the largest landback deal in California history. https://t.co/wcJz92SyNj

[Jack Herrera @jherrerx]

I don’t know if Americans realize how often ICE arrests US citizens, and how long those citizens can spend detained. I spoke to Davino Watson, who spent 3.5 years in a detention center. He was a citizen every minute of that time. 1/3

Vanuatu's Minister for Climate Change Ralph Regenvanu said that the extension of the project is "a slap in the face for Pacific Island countries who have repeatedly called on Australia to stop approving new fossil fuel projects".https://t.co/BYz3cSK854
