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.

freedom.press

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow

As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

UPDATE on Mahmoud Khalil from his lawyers and his wife: "Today I spoke to Mahmoud and he is healthy and his spirits are undaunted by his predicament." (Legal team now includes ACLU, CCR.)

For full alt text, follow pastebin link in next post. Partial text:

Amy E. Greer, attorney for Mahmoud Khalil provided the following update this evening:

First, importantly, today I spoke to Mahmoud and he is healthy and his spirits are undaunted by his predicament. He also greatly appreciates, and, typically for him, is moved by the extraordinarily broad and steadfast support he has received from a variety of communities that understand what is at stake. He is in ICE custody in Louisiana, and arrangements have been made for local attorneys to visit him today and tomorrow.

The remarks by government officials, including the President, on social media only confirm the purpose – and illegality – of Mahmoud's detention. He was chosen as an example to stifle entirely lawful dissent in violation of the First Amendment. While tomorrow or thereafter the government may cite the law or process, that toothpaste is out of the tube and irreversibly so. The government’s objective is as transparent as it is unlawful, and our role as Mahmoud’s lawyers is to ensure it does not prevail.

Today Mahmoud's legal team, which includes Kyle Barron, CLEAR, the Center for Constitutional Rights, the American Civil Liberties Union, and Amy Greer filed a motion to compel in federal court in the Southern District of New York, as part of the habeas corpus petition filed on his behalf over the weekend, seeking an order requiring the government to return to New York for any immigration proceedings.

You have to improve your portrait of God John Ashbery

WE HESITATE

The days to come are a watershed.
You have to improve your portrait of God
To make it plain. It is on the list,
You and your bodies are on the line.

The new past now unfurls like a great somber hope
Above the treeline, like a giant’s hand
Placed tentatively on the hurrying clouds.
The basins come to be full and complex

But it is not enough. Concern and embarrassment
Grow rank. Once they have come home there is no cursing.
Fires disturb the evening. No one can hear the story.
Or sometimes people just forget

Like a child. It took me months
To get that discipline banned, and what is the use,
To ban that? You remain a sane, yet sophisticated, person:
Rooted in twilight, dreaming, a piece of traffic.

Rest in peace Pat Ingoldsby, a true Dublin character. May your crossing be easy.

The poem I visualise my death by Pat Ingoldsby
I will go down to the waters edge in Malahide,
Because it is time.
Da will be there in the boat.
He will smile.
'You're coming over' he will say.
He knows.
'Yes I am. It's lovely to see you.'
'Come on' he will say, 'Ta is waiting'.
A smile of joy will warm me.
He will not need to help me over the side.
Everything will be easy.
Da will pull on the oats
And away we will go
Crossing over
To the island
Forever
Getting there.

I am learning that quite a few reply all listeners aren’t aware of Hyperfixed, so if you have any friends in your life that liked reply all, if you could say “hey did you know Alex has a new show called Hyperfixed?” That might be very nice!
