For staff at Bozeman’s sole homeless shelter, the need for services has never been greater and the work has never been harder. I spent year talking to shelter staff and residents on the front lines of the West’s housing crisis for @highcountrynews.org www.hcn.org/issues/57-5/...

At the small city’s only emergency shelter, demand is higher and the work is harder than ever.

“The deaths of migrants are not just a consequence of “Deterrence,” but a desired outcome — Necropolitics.”

Undokumentierte Immigrantinnen, die sich nicht mehr aus dem Haus trauen. Aktivisten, die versuchen, Abschiebungen zu verhindern. Eine abgeschottete Grenze. Ein Museum der Propaganda. Und eine Gefängnisindustrie, die boomt.

Hier ist meine erste längere Reportage aus diesem Jahr. @woz.ch
Im Grenzgebiet von Arizona: Panik und Solidarität
Die einen trauen sich nicht mehr aus dem Haus, andere organisieren sich – und ein Museum zeigt ungeplant die widersprüchliche Wahrheit. Eine Reise entlang der mexikanischen Grenze.

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.

For @inkstickmedia.com, I reported from Germany on the country's heavy weapons manufacturers, their role in the Nazi war machine, and the soaring profits they are reaping in response to the war in Ukraine.

U.S. Army soldiers deployed in BPD vehicles at Mt. Cristo Rey outside of El Paso. This area is the deadliest along the border, at least 176 people died in the El Paso sector in 2024, with most of the deaths clustered around the mountain.

This is a Border Patrol vehicle waiting to intercept migrants at a break in the border wall between El Paso and Anapra. Inside are two U.S. Army soldiers, not BPD officers. They said their orders are not to answer any questions.

I am travelling along the southern border and visiting a few of the many shelters that host migrants, asylum seekers, refugees as well as local unhoused populations. Today I spoke to workers at Project Comunidad in Deming, NM.

Today was the Immigrant & Worker's Day of Action in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I spoke to migrants, activists and organizers that had gathered from all over the state to lobby lawmakers for their causes, and to protest the mass deportations announced by the incoming administration.

Ein Update aus den ersten Wochen Trump 2.0: die neue Regierung versucht, die USA mit neuen Gesetzgebungen, Entlassungswellen und Dekreten zu "fluten," Angst und Verwirrung sind dabei keine Nebeneffekte sondern eine gezielte Strategie.

I would love to find some resources for migrating out of the Google and Meta ecosystems. Especially looking for safe and viable alternatives to Google Drive and advice on migrating out of WhatsApp (as much as possible) and pulling my data off their servers (if possible).

I wanted to take the occasion of leaving Twitter to share some of my work on Elon Musk, which has led me to believe that he may be just as dangerous in space as he is on earth.
