Long before politicians called for a DOJ investigation into the Charleston County jail, Charleston County knew the medical company it hired was failing to care for inmates. A year later, the company remains in the jail, collecting millions @postandcourier postandcourier.com/news/char…

I got really annoyed that so many stories about the "Cornell 7" case don't link to the underlying court documents.
So I compiled the key filings from Jane Doe's civil suit and from a separate suit brought by one of the accused.

Very true. The @nytimes and its reporters literally changed history with this story.
"Nearly five years."
Investigative journalism takes years and years. The investment is immense, and always worth it, and, in the era of "hot takes" and ephemeral "content," rigorously reported journalistic work is needed more than ever. We must keep supporting investigative journalism.

Asked by NYT “if there were any limits on his global powers,” Trump said “My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”
I’m afraid those are the only constraints on Trump’s use of nuclear weapons in Iran.

"the rhetoric of legal constraint, and debates about the legality of presidential uses of force, are empty. And they deflect attention from Congress’s constitutional responsibility...."

The @washingtonpost has closed its Kyiv bureau. But @lawfare has not. Anastasiia @lapatina_ has written and podcasted extensively for us from Kyiv—facing many of the hardships of Russia’s war herself.

Laid off from the Washington Post, along with the entire roster of Middle East correspondents and our editors. Hard to understand the logic. But I am grateful for my incredible colleagues, whose grit and dedication to the reporting and each other I will miss dearly.

If you were let go today at WaPo, Court Watch is always open to freelance stories involving the federal courts. Consider it a small bridge until you find a place to land. I’ll give first priority to former Posties pitches. DMs open.

The Washington Post eliminated my job today, along with too many others. If you’re hiring, let’s talk. I’m willing to move for the right job.

We dropped our paywall for this new piece.
Court Watch picked one of the largest ‘news deserts’ in the South and examined all the new court dockets that went unreported to tell a larger story about the need for local journalism
