Research shows the more times you hear a statement, the more likely you are to believe it. We analyzed >12,000 of Trump’s immigration statements & found his most repeated claims, some of which he's made >500 times. All false. Here they are, fact-checked: themarshallproject.org/2024/10/21/fac…

@lostblackboy @Phil_Lewis_ Just shocked that someone photographed wearing the styles of the 1970s and 80s using the technology available back then looks different than someone photographed with 2020s technology with a 2020s style.

This tweet is so funny because if you ever meet @Phil_Lewis_ in person, he’s like the human manifestation of PBS.

Applications are due September 30. Please apply or hit me up with questions. DMs open or email deads@themarshallproject.org.

Job Alert! I'm not on here much - suit guy became too much - but happy to say The Marshall Project is hiring a new data reporter to join our powerful data team (@AndrewRCalderon @AnnaFlagg @geoffhing @IlicaMahajan). Come to office hours to learn more. themarshallproject.org/jobs/data-repo…

absolutely psyched about my new editor @ASankin!! we're really hoping to dig into the effects of AI/ML/algos/tech in the criminal justice system - send us your leads! themarshallproject.org/2024/08/13/aar…

Are you a criminal justice reporter, or a storyteller interested in criminal justice issues? @marshallproj just launched Investigate This! with toolkits to help local journalists and others with their original reporting. Check it out: themarshallproject.org/investigate-th…

Investigate This! is a new initiative from @marshallproj to empower criminal justice journalism in local communities. Here's everything you need to turn their criminal justice reporting into stories for your community: themarshallproject.org/investigate-th…

Criminal justice journalism can significantly impact local communities. That's why @marshallproj is launching Investigate This! to share reporting resources and data downloads with newsrooms across the US. Email me at investigatethis@themarshallproject.org with any questions.

@mairaka @kane_one_ I feel the Great Breaking Up seems suddenly a lot more likely to happen in our lifetimes.

@kane_one_ think we just start building other systems now, new constitution etc

not to be dramatic but uh, today was the nail in the coffin on the American experiment of democracy???

Even a small story —  especially involving death row — takes a small village. @nxkylah joined me on this interview. @akibasolomon edited + shaped our framing. @keribla reported on the case with me and spoke to Gonzales in 2022. Thanks to them and many others.

Trememdous honor for @MarshallProj to be a runner-up for this year's Molly Prize, with our amazing reporting partners @aldotcom @readfrontier @postandcourier @MSTODAYnews & @guardian

@paranoiacs Also Club Mekon remains one of the most impressive combinations of funny and acerbic I've encountered in song. "When I was just seventeen / sex no longer held a mystery / I saw it as a commodity / to be bought and sold like rock n' roll."

Ten joyously apocalyptic tracks rendered over thirty-five grim and giddy minutes, The Mekons' 1989 LP ‘Rock & Roll’ traces a stumbling outline around the fading-Empire cruelties of Thatcher’s brutal regime and the still bleeding wounds of the American south. The last, Last Waltz.

@paranoiacs Seeing the gracefully aging Mekons belt out "Destroy your safe and happy life / before it is too late" was life-changing when I hit middle age.

@nhannahjones Black people are by far the largest group of hate crime victims in the US on a yearly basis based on the FBI's admittedly imperfect reporting. cc @Weihua_Li1 themarshallproject.org/2023/10/21/fbi…

But the real danger on college campuses is DEI and students being exposed to dialogue about race and racism.

Use our migrant child labor data! More children are crossing the border on their own than ever before, and thousands are ending up doing dangerous, illegal jobs. We sued the government for a huge trove of data about these kids, and shared it all here: #readme" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/nytimes/hhs-ch…

@eads Thanks David!

Hello what remains of journo twitter! I'm looking for a good recent report or two that includes data on the last year of extraordinary newsroom bloodletting, as well as strong discussions of the good, bad and ugly of what's in store in coming years. Talking to a group tomorrow

@theonlyadwoa idk how the arabic course is, but I ~love~ the spanish version of "language transfer" -- I tried other apps but this is the only one that got me in tune with real spanish spoken on the street #arabic" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">languagetransfer.org/free-courses-1…

@MurphyWoodhouse Personally, I think we have to ask what is worth saving from the traditions of legacy media on the assumption that The Way It Used To Be is never coming back and that outside of a "winner-takes-most" framework, there won't be a traditional journalism industry in 5-10 years.

@MurphyWoodhouse I find this very useful in these discussions: niemanreports.org/articles/journ… This as well: honest-broker.com/p/in-2024-the-…

@Knibbs This has broken one of my work Slack channels, perhaps irrevocably.
