Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.
A powerful narrative portrait of Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald investigative journalist celebrated for her "Perversion of Justice" series, which exposed the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and led to her 2026 Pulitzer Prize special citation. Brown sits in the heart of a newsroom, leaning forward with her hands clasped over the back of a vibrant lime-green chair. Her expression is steady and resolute, a faint, knowing smile playing on her lips. She has shoulder-length, strawberry-blonde hair and wears a crisp, white short-sleeved linen top. Her look is punctuated by bold, artistic accessories: a long necklace featuring large, multi-colored geometric beads and matching statement earrings. The background is filled with the tools of her trade: Dell computer monitors and large wall-mounted screens displaying blurred news segments, including one featuring her own likeness. The composition is balanced and centered, capturing a mood of quiet authority and tireless determination. This image stands as a tribute to Brown’s historical significance in journalism, marking her as a champion for victims whose reporting forced a global reckoning on power and systemic failure.

1️⃣ CNN’s chyron gives the game away: green arrows for oil profits, red arrows for everyone else. This is an unnecessary war of choice that turns human lives into a line item on an oil company’s balance sheet.

This is an excellent essay by the great @tribelaw.bsky.social on the adaptibility and endurance of our founding document. I needed to read this because I had started to lose hope (and honestly had not thought about the potential in the 9th Amendment) www.nybooks.com/articles/202...

Democratic voters have a decision to make in every primary, both in the midterms and in 2028. Folks need to “purity test” candidates. Period. Look at what policies candidates stand for and look at their donors. This moment is not for politicians without a spine.

Let's be frank here, even though Hilton won't. They can't afford to spend the next six months protecting these hotels from bomb threats, vandalism, and angry right wingers videoing themselves snarling at the employees behind the desk. The GOP is a terrorist movement and Hilton is scared of them.

If you're a Hilton loyalty card holder it's probably worth sending them a "this is disgraceful" message, just to remind them that their actual customers are the global PMC rather than car dealers from Ohio

Trump tried to turn the holidays into a season of fear, scarcity, and division. It didn’t work. Across the country, people chose care anyway. This is what refusal looks like. open.substack.com/pub/thejenni...

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American. Two options: 1) ICE deliberately targeted him. 2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens. Hard to say which option is scarier.

It’s pretty simple. When you do a huge armed midnight raid on an apartment building rounding up and terrorizing children and later find out there were no criminals there everyone involved resigns in shame and we have loud showy Congressional hearings.

“More and more cabinet members — Rubio, Miller, Noem — live on military bases now, & it's another parallel to Iraq, where the administration lived in the Green Zone. There’s something deeply unhealthy about a society where leaders are literally shut off from the communities that they govern.”

Omg.. c'mon media, when you ask "Why did the president pardon someone who he claims not to know", and they answer, "I haven't seen that." The follow-up is "Well now you know, so what do you have to say"? This is just ludicrous. "I don't know" is basically "I dont care".
