I've been doing this work a long time but nothing prepared me for what I saw on a recent reporting trip in Somalia. I was there to look into rising food and fuel prices from the war in the Middle East landing atop dramatic cuts to the international humanitarian relief system.

ABC News has now taken all FiveThirtyEight articles completely offline. They now redirect to abcnews dot com/politics. A needless erasure of thousands of pages of knowledge.

New this morning: The frequency and tenor of threatening calls to members of Congress is rising.
Chilling voicemails obtained by @TalKopan and @JimPuzzanghera show callers threatening
violence against members, staff, and families, and spewing racism and misogyny at staff.

Breaking News: The U.S. was responsible for a missile strike on an Iranian school, an ongoing military investigation found. The inquiry said the strike — which Iranian officials said killed at least 175 people — was the result of a targeting mistake. nyti.ms/47G2uw2

We absolutely need to know if this was an American strike. It's looking increasingly like it was, and if so it will be one of the worst individual incidents of civilian deaths in a generation or more.

amazon's internal A.I. coding assistant decided the engineers' existing code was inadequate so the bot deleted it to start from scratch
that resulted in taking down a part of AWS for 13 hours and was not the first time it had happened

The Washington Post laid off its entire award-winning photo staff.
Every photographer, fired.
The WaPo photo staff has won 5 Pulitzers, including as recently as 2019.
With a newsroom that still has 300 journalists, how do you produce a daily report with…no photographers?

Feeling gutted for those laid off at WaPo today, among them some of the most dedicated, hard-nosed journalists in the biz.
Wanted to share some openings we have at @BostonGlobe🧵

A note from our editors:
ALT Note from the editors: ProPublica is publishing the names of the two federal immigration agents involved in the fatal shooting of Minnesota protester Alex Pretti. We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed. The Department of Justice said it is investigating the incident, but the names of the two agents have been withheld from Congress and from state and local law enforcement. The policy of shielding officers’ identities, particularly after a public shooting, is a stark departure from standard law enforcement protocols, according to lawmakers, state attorneys general and former federal officials. Such secrecy, in our view, deprives the public of the most fundamental tool for accountability.

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

To put the horror at Brown in some additional context: Providence is exceedingly unused to gun violence. It is a city of almost 200,000 people with only *two* homicides this entire year, until tonight, down from 11 last year.
