Here’s something revealing: A WGN report found the vast majority of people ICE detains don't have criminal convictions. Tom Homan’s answer:

Imagine if everyone who canceled Hulu or Disney+ also streamed 24/7 until their billing cycle ended. Would that cost DIS a little bit in bandwidth?

The last time Donald Trump showed his face live in front of the press was Tuesday, August 26th, during a marathon three-hour cabinet meeting.

Maybe all that staged roundtable praise from his sycophants was too much for him.

This is great. I will continue to subscribe though because there are many other articles worth reading. Good journalists don’t work for free, dummies.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow

In January, Rubio and an aide said some frozen foreign aid programs that are saving lives could go on as officials conducted a “targeted, case-by-case review” that would take months. On Wednesday, Rubio completely ended nearly 10,000 programs saying they did not align with Trump’s agenda.

No education reporting deserves a Pulitzer Prize more than this piece. This morning, I taught @jonapolitano.bsky.social's exceptional investigation on high schools denying entry to immigrant students legally entitled to attend high school.

In 35 states, students have a right to attend high school until at least age 20; a 74 investigation revealed a 19-year-old was repeatedly turned away.
