“We did old-fashioned shoe-leather-type stuff that I haven’t seen done in many a year,” Marilyn Thompson told MS NOW.
So proud of Marilyn, who is breaking huge stories from her home state’s local paper.

I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.
About 3 months ago, I relocated from Minneapolis to NYC to take a new role as the host of ProPublica's forthcoming podcast. Very bizarre timing on my part. BUT! We've been quietly building something and here are the incredible audio superstars who're on the team: www.propublica.org/atpropublica...
Look at these charts. TransUnion and Experian, two of the three major credit bureaus, have started dismissing a larger share of consumer complaints without help. The timing coincides with the Trump administration’s dismantling of the CFPB. www.propublica.org/article/cred... @joeljacobs.bsky.social

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

NEW: Believe it or not, it’s that time of year: the Wisconsin Supreme Court election is next month.
Liberals have a huge opportunity: if they win, they can lock down the majority of this court thru 2030.
That means they’d have it in the next presidential race, a big democracy guardrail.

"The documents reveal a web of financial ties between senior government officials and the industries they help regulate — relationships that have drawn scrutiny as Trump has dismantled ethics safeguards designed to prevent conflicts of interest." @coreygjohnson.bsky.social @shaw.al @bxroberts.org
Thank you 🫂 doing much better now. I’m grateful I have bosses who gave me the flexibility to deal with this and heal.
Very bleak! It feels odd to talk about this publicly but it was just so appalling.
It’s scary..
I’ve been thinking a lot about the hundreds of pregnant women navigating this broken system in Texas.
Our team has reported data that shows a horrifying story: www.propublica.org/article/texa...
Feeling a righteous rage after ping ponging btwn doctor’s offices for weeks due to bleeding and abdominal pain.
Turns out my IUD partially expelling out of my uterus into my abdomen. Dallas Baylor ER was only place that could help me.
Women’s healthcare in Texas is very broken 😞

I don’t say this as a joke or a drill, but I hope everyone who follows elections has cleared up next Tuesday night because it’s one of the biggest election nights of the year
(More on the what and why tomorrow.)
So thrilled to join the staff of ProPublica. Please reach out if you know about an important story involving the Department of Justice or the FBI. www.propublica.org/atpropublica...

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.
Last summer, OpenAI employees debated alerting law enforcement about Jesse Van Rootselaar's interactions with ChatGPT
In February, Van Rootselaar became the suspect in the mass shooting that devastated a rural town in British Columbia
