“Stefanie Anderson avoids crowds, doesn’t go out after dark and flinches when the doorbell rings.”
Shocking and important story from my colleagues Linda So, Peter Eisler and Ned Parker.

More reporting trickling out about alleged mistreatment of Venezuelans at the El Salvador prison, including frequent beatings, shackling, insults and denial of medical care.
At one point, the detainees used sharp iron pipes to cut themselves and write messages in their blood on white sheets as an act of protest, one released Venezuelan said. “We are not terrorists,” the messages read. “We are migrants.”

Guards at the El Salvador mega prison told detainees they would only leave dead, according to two Venezuelans who were recently freed from CECOT. One of them said some of his fellow inmates considered suicide.

Lots of fascinating nuggets in this richly-reported profile of Stephen Miller -- including that he is one of a small group of White House staffers who approve *all* executive orders.

Ever since the Musk-Trump alliance began, people have been predicting its end. And tensions have indeed been building for months.
But it's really just today that it's all come crashing down, dizzyingly fast. Musk is now dangling the threat of a new party, and Trump is dangling the threat of terminating Musk's government contracts.

But it's really just today that it's all come crashing down, dizzyingly fast. Musk is now dangling the threat of a new party, and Trump is dangling the threat of terminating Musk's government contracts.
“Reuters is lying,” Musk posted on X, minutes after a Reuters report that Tesla had killed a planned all-new $25,000 EV.
Tesla executives knew that Musk had, in fact, canceled the low-cost vehicle. The company had told employees the project was over weeks earlier, Reuters reported, citing three sources and company documents.
Musk’s post was so confusing to some senior managers that they asked him whether he’d changed his mind. Musk rejected their concerns and said the project was still dead, according to the people with knowledge of the matter.
NEW: Interviewed ex DOGE staffer who said:
* DOGE is likely to fizzle now that Musk is out. "It's like kids joining a startup that will go out of business in 4 months."
* Objectives at DOGE were unclear and communication poor. "I got dropped into the VA with an HP laptop. What are we supposed to do? What is the road map?...I felt like I was being pranked."
* Steve Davis ran day-to-day operations while Baris Akis helped with DOGE recruitment and logistics
* He was fired after speaking to media

Read our interview with Sahil Lavingia, the first since he was fired from DOGE. He takes you behind the scenes of Musk’s project — and doesn’t mince his words:
