Happy #PanamaPapers anniversary! Often we take these moments to tell you how the investigation led to laws changed, bad folks arrested, money recovered, etc. But this year, we took a different measure of impact… 🧵 1/14

If @ICIJorg had a penny for every time someone labeled us pawns of [INSERT RANDOM INTELLIGENCE AGENCY], we would never have to fundraise again. Dos Santos says she was targeted, @FT reports. ft.com/content/5ce9aed7-7a8c… Speaking of fundraising, wanna donate? icij.org/donate/

A federal court in Australia upholds a ruling that J&J acted negligently & concealed the extent of harm caused by pelvic mesh. More than 10k women are now due to share in hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation #ImplantFiles

Today marks one year since we published #LuandaLeaks, a global investigation on how two decades of corrupt deals turned Isabel dos Santos, the daughter of Angola’s longtime ruler, into Africa’s wealthiest woman. bit.ly/2XYuczU

Happy #mauritiusleaks anniversary! 1/ It might have got @ICIJorg and I barred from another nice holiday destination, but the collaboration helped expose an little-known weakness in the global system that, as @GA4TJ says, "siphons" off money from largely poor countries.
One year ago, the @ICIJorg exposed a sophisticated system in Mauritius to siphon off tax from poor countries to benefit multinational corporations and elites. #TBT Here's an article about the #MauritiusLeaks by our @CarolineOthim --> bit.ly/2CXaRIc

Oops, @PwC did it again. #luandaleaks shows the global accountants worked with Isabel dos Santos (when others wouldn't). The firm now cut ties with her and promised an investigation and possible sackings, per @JulietteGarside. Thread on what we learnt about PWC in #luandaleaks

My life's mission is complete. I persuaded @hamishbr and @amytheblue to publish a photo (and related story) about Dolly Parton on the homepage of @ICIJorg. Also read the story. It's the whole ICIJ team's thoughts on 2019's most inspiring collaborations! icij.org/blog/2020/01/collab…
