Detail from inside the gutting of the Washington Post:

300 journalists or so will be fired this AM at 8:30 AM (right now…).

They’ll be cut off from newsroom computer access at 9 AM.

Word got out about this yesterday afternoon.

Dozens of reporters & journalists worked late last night & early this AM to finish stories they had in process before being shut out.

That’s who works at the Post. No surprise.

<I interviewed these people — this is a good, valuable story. Let me just get it done…before I lose my job & worry about how to pay my rent.>

One last story.

Patrick Schiltz, chief judge of the District of Minnesota. is a conservative stalwart. He's fed up with ICE's failure to comply with "dozens of court orders" in recent weeks.
"The Court's patience is at an end.... The Court acknowledges that ordering the head of a federal agency to personally appear is an extraordinary step, but the extent of ICE's violation of court orders is likewise extraordinary, and lesser measures have been tried and failed."

@conorsen This topic can get toxic very quickly but I want to say there were a few years in which *my father* participated in neighborhood group chats on behalf of the household.

He got stuff done and shared the gems from the chat with the rest of us. #multigen

@MichaelRWear I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just saying you have a lot of these nights in your future.

@matthew_loftus This is right on.

BREAKING: In response to ICE's refusal to allow detained migrants to receive the Eucharist, Pope Leo XIV calls on President Trump and Vice President Vance to respect the dignity and religious liberty of migrants in the United States.

“The authorities must allow pastoral workers to assist with the needs of these people. Many times they have been separated from their families and no one knows what happens.”

I reached out to a White House spokesperson for comment. They said “the pope doesn't know what he’s talking about.”

So many of the talking points remind me of predatory (read: addiction and/or debt-cycle) financial products circa 1990s and 2000s

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox is making an impassioned plea for Americans and young people to use the horror of Charlie Kirk's public assassination as an inflection point to turn the country away from political violence and division. https://t.co/1Q39IhG7Cl

@LeahLibresco The parallels in our cultural silence about birth and death are striking. We don't speak of the pain and physicality of birth either.

"Iowans respond with compassion and generosity to those in need...International aid brings the best of America to the world."
