Remember: these are just the cases DHS *wanted* to highlight. Imagine the incidents that they are covering up.
The U.S. government says its agents are under attack. The claims reached 380 million views on X.
Most of the alleged culprits in the tweets were U.S. citizens, denounced as terrorists, rioters and agitators. Yet none have been convicted at trial.
A WSJ investigation tracked the U.S. citizens caught in the crosshairs of an aggressive government campaign to detain and demonize dissenters.

The WSJ's most-read piece over the weekend was this superb investigation titled "Americans Are Now a Target in Trump's Immigration Crackdown." wsj.com/us-news/immigration-…

Gov't data, social media posts, court records, & unreleased videos all paint a picture: @DHSgov has been targeting Americans with assault allegations that fall apart in court.

A note on the gift link.
You may need to open in an actual browser instead of using the in-app browser.
There's a fake paywall on gift articles that can be dismissed, but X's in app browser bumps up the window and hides the teeny tiny arrow that dismisses the fake paywall.
And if you're wondering how we went about doing all this, here's our methodology.
And if you're a #NICAR26 person, there's a few databases and custom apps underpinning the investigation. Maybe a thread for another day.

The Trump administration says American “terrorists” and “rioters” are assaulting immigration agents. A WSJ investigation found none have been convicted at trial.

A review of 47 victims’ full names on Sunday found that 43 of them were left unredacted in files that were made public by the government on Friday, according to a @WSJ analysis. Several women’s full names appeared more than 100 times in the files. wsj.com/us-news/law/epstein-…
DOJ left the names of over 40 of Epstein's victims fully visible in Friday's massive file dump. For some names we found over 100 appearances as of Sunday evening. Nearly 30 were minors.

A huge thank you to computer guy @noslouch for saving us when we forgot about dark mode
@JoannaStern and @bzcohen vibed up an interactive article and, like many vibe coders, called in a computer guy to bring it across the finish line
I had to do surprisingly little! But I did add a couple features
Happy to report my job is secure. For now

one of the best uses of ai i've seen. i've seen the future
I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents.
I didn't write a single line of code.
I spent a not insignificant amount of time convincing the claudius to spam the channel with updates about a hallucinated cold brew delivery, but Katherine's coup was the coup de grace
My favorite part of executing a boardroom coup against our AI vending machine was seeing @lukaspet whip out the :NotLikeThis: emoji when we convinced it to set all prices to $0.00.
