Hey, @josh-kaplan.bsky.social this is really stellar reporting. I’m a bit concerned that you said “we’ve uncovered the first known example.” I’m wondering, can you speak to Myranda Kazos emailing you her investigative reporting on this exact issue a while ago? She’s been covering this for months.
NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

Apologies if these are a bit out of order. Kazos told me she felt blindsided bc she did not know Kaplan was even interested in running the story until it was published and folks messaged her congratulating her on having HER reporting printed in @propublica.org.

@jenpsaki.bsky.social your input on Kazos’ accusation that ProPublica used her investigative reporting w/o credit would be welcome. Kazos claims she didn’t know they were going run the story until people were messaging her “Congrats on ProPublica running your story!” She wasn’t paid or credited.

I’m particularly concerned because a woman independent journalist who has been covering this for months is not receiving credit, is struggling to pay her bills, and @propublica.org will make huge amounts of $$ off this story and the authors will get more work, while Kazos sits in obscurity.

I know dozens of Skylars, which is why I didn’t coddle him from the beginning. When it comes to understanding white, rural conservative men, you won’t ever find anyone more right than me.

The video of Trump’s deportees arriving in El Salvador is horrific.

This is 21st century Nazism.

Identities concealed, trafficked to a foreign labour camp. No due process, no evidence of crime. Dehumanised.

Where is the global outrage?

The crime is historic; the normalisation catastrophic.

Did you know you could listen to ProPublica reports? It plays just like a podcast. Please, read or listen to this one. www.propublica.org/article/ap3-...
A Mole Infiltrated the Highest Ranks of American Militias. This Is What He Found.
Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends....

They want to return to the dark ages. There is no reason to get sick from raw milk when all you have to do is boil it. There is no reason to get measles when we have a vaccine. There is no reason to let women die from sepsis instead of giving them an abortion.

They want the dark ages.

Kansas City, MO airport (MCI) has the best gender neutral restrooms. Amazing amount of individual stalls and large handwashing area. So impressed what KC did at the new airport. No big deal for this boomer.

Watching Deadpool. Never have watched one of these kind of movies. This is funny and a very adult movie. Had no idea. This is fun.
