NEW: The Connecticut company Absolute Standards hasn't responded to repeated questions from federal and state officials for years about claims it may be making a lethal injection drug, records show. #foia My latest w/@Lbackusoncrime and @jacquelinerabe — ctinsider.com/news/article/l…
Today, ProPublica committed to working with news organizations in all 50 states over the next five years to publish investigative stories. It's a major focus for us and sends a STRONG message that #LocalNews matters! propublica.org/atpropublica/p…
well....it was not an april fools...it's happening ‼️ we're asking YOU to vote on a name for D.C.'s new worker-led news outlet ‼️ there's an option to leave open-ended feedback as well; we're all ears! forms.gle/3HKxFPFv67CYZp…
When WAMU laid off 16 people and closed DCist, the reasoning given was “content strategy word salad," per one staffer. @abeaujon cuts through the jargon and nonsense with a deeply reported, excellent look at what actually happened: washingtonian.com/2024/04/19/why…
Tomorrow, the Supreme Court hears Grants Pass v. Johnson, the most consequential homeless rights case in decades. To understand what's at stake, check out these three recent posts: (1) @ProfSaraRankin on how cities seek to hide homelessness from view. lpeproject.org/blog/the-unavo…
At arguments in Grants Pass, Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson are pummeling the Gibson Dunn attorney defending laws that punish homeless people who sleep outside. Sotomayor asks: If homeless people aren't allowed to sleep anywhere, are they supposed to just "kill themselves"?
This is a really important point. Crime should of course be covered; public safety is critical, after all. But when the harsh realities of the media industry and social media make crime coverage the most prevalent thing people see online everyday, it can be terribly corrosive.

We know local news hyper-fixates on violent crime to the exclusion of most other things but I feel like I have a particularly clear perspective on this via @ggwash, because every morning we put together a round-up of news coverage of those “other things.” And it’s getting harder.
Several hundred thousand people are jailed every year in the United States because they can't pay various court debts. This is actually a significant fraction of what municipal courts do, and a huge part of the job of police and prosecutors.
The people who talk about police violence, but frame the problem as one of "bad apples" don't want people thinking about the everyday violence all around us--the violence that has become so normal that many people live their lives without even noticing that it is there.
Which better promotes public safety: putting the kid in a 2-year rehabilitation program for juveniles, or putting the kid in adult prison until 23? There’s an actual, objective answer to that question. I wish NY Times believed that providing it to readers was part of its job.
4-part story: May 2015 - @MayorBowser appoints Jennifer Smith to run DC’s crime lab April 2021 - Lab covers up blunders; loses its accreditation. May 2021 - Smith resigns after audit cites poor management. Jan. 2024 - Smith maxes out to Recall Allen campaign. Unserious people.

I really hate when people try to get out of jury duty. It’s like one of the only ways you can directly practice abolitionist values and y’all are just like nah. And then have the nerve to tell people about it. I’d be ashamed.
“One preliminary count found that 12% of New York state voters left their ballots blank in the Democratic primary.” teenvogue.com/story/primary-…
I've counted only 10 US Senators who have said anything on their Twitter account about the IDF's killing of World Central Kitchen aid workers.
"Uninstructed" — the Wisconsin version of "uncommitted" — got nearly 48,000 votes in yesterday's Democratic primary. That far exceeds Bidens' 20,700-vote margin of victory in 2020, as well as Trump's 22,700-vote margin of victory in 2016.
New: Bowser's 2025 budget does exactly what many advocates feared, wiping out a key fund providing raises for childcare workers. The mayor's team blames the CFO for forcing them to move this money elsewhere. Does that leave any hope for its restoration? washingtoncitypaper.com/article/687687…

@amyep9 @JusticeLandau @DreLaw1969 Agreed. PDs and prosecutors have some similarities but are not equal in this conversation. PD’s represent individual clients and their and liberty interests. Prosecutors’ “client” is more amorphous - it’s the state - and prosecution is the state’s burden in the first place
@JusticeLandau @amyep9 @DreLaw1969 I've had prosecutors try last minute to continue a motion to suppress in an obviously bullshit 2 y/o case I'd only gotten a couple months before. If I'm ready you should be. She had to suddenly--a week before--be in another hearing, and tried to continue it two months. No.
After seeing The Outsiders last night and reading the reviews after, I have come to the conclusion that this is absolutely the season to go see a show and make up your own damn mind about it. This is really all the time, but this season in particular.
@asmehta Um, swing debuts. I always give FOH benefit of the doubt. Queer folks playing queer folks!
@SUPERTROUPERS @cybermelli I believe it was due to understudies going on for both Eden and Amber and they needed to make sure they were both ready to go on.
@cybermelli It is actually ok to start late for the safety of the company 😍
@cybermelli And the second time an understudy needed a second before they could start the show! Sometimes live theatre is like that! That’s the magic of theatre!
@Fligherferhire @MarlaWolf @mjs_DC Non-religious housing is a need.
@BravoKiloActual @TimothyPSmith7 @mjs_DC No actually the common cause of Homelessness is not having enough money. Some regions saw as high as a 61% increase in Homelessness after the 2008 financial crisis. For women the most common cause in domestic violence.
@BravoKiloActual @mjs_DC Lots of homeless are employed full time. Still can't afford to rent.
@LukeRodriguez75 But Luke I helped those dream kids go on to dream rob another person because I didn’t help send them to dream kiddie jail or have them be made dream adults in the dream system.
I had a dream that I was being robbed by a group of kids and the police showed up in the middle of the robbery. I turned around and told all of the kids none of them were allowed to talk to the cops. 💀😭
@mysikix This was only two months ago. What changed?
@mysikix how much money was “plowed” into violence interruption?
