In a yearlong investigation for @typeinvestigate and @WWNO, we found judges in Louisiana using money from criminal fines and fees to lease luxury cars, stay in beachside resorts, and pay their iPhone bills. typeinvestigations.org/investigation/…
I just took action with @theactionnet: Open Letter to the Board of Pardons. Take action here: actionnetwork.org/forms/open-let…
This tip thread dropped at a good time. We added a trust box to this story and leafed through these examples for ideas on how to do it. thecurrentla.com/2023/police-ch…
What kind of message has the mayor-president sent over the past 3 years about the safety of Lafayette as he insisted on pulling Lafayette PD officers away from their work for his full-time security? What's the priority? His safety or those who elected him?
.@thecurrentlaf wrote some stories about the mayor-president's security detail. Then the chief of police wrote me a letter with a "formal request" that we stop. thecurrentla.com/2023/police-ch…
This is what courage looks like. nytimes.com/2023/01/28/bus…
No more "secret service" for M-P Josh Guillory (surely unrelated to multiple investigations swirling.) @DrRobertCollins thecurrentla.com/2023/amid-inve…

Over in the Senate, Patty Murray today became the first female president pro tem in history. I asked how it feels to be third in line to the presidency. "Well, today I’m second, because Kevin McCarthy’s not speaker." 😂
Mais la!
All I can say is that those of us who have lost friends, fought with relatives, resigned positions, been called traitor, left our party, all because we saw very clearly what a con-man, huckster and fraud this man is, have never felt more vindicated.
4. Early 2023: Trump indicted. More Maybe Trumpers move to Never Again Trump. 5. Spring 2023: Trump fading, Biden announces he won't run in 2024, welcomes younger leaders to compete for Dem nomination. 6. The future: A new generation get to work building a better politics. END
Can we just agree that @ReverendWarnock’s Mom is the cutest ever? 💙
My mom grew up picking cotton in the 1950s. Yesterday, she waited in line to once again pick her son to represent Georgia in the U.S. Senate. We’ve come a long way, but the work isn’t done! Please vote, Georgia 🗳

I love a good lawyer letter, and this is a work of art.
So here's the thing. You can only violate people's legal rights and your own word so far before they lawyer up and come after you. I really do hope Musk changes his mind and does the right thing - the employees deserve that. But it'll be fun as hell if he doesn't.
