Bill Essayli, Trump's man in L.A., talks a lot about fraud. Something he doesn't talk about: his family's federal fraud case, and how he defended it against the office he now runs. Our reporter Matt Hamilton uncovered the case and went deep on a major Trump player. lamaterial.com/p/bill-essay...

For those wondering why “skeet” is the term, it’s because the Bluesky CEO explicitly begged users to choose another word.

Jay 🦋@jay.bsky.team

Guys, please don't let "skeets" stick The experiment in decentralized naming decisions has resulted in the worst possible term How about skoots? Can we bring back skoots? Bluesky OGs, help me out here, remember skoots?

Reposting: I strongly believe, as I always have, that the media should invite the public into the reporting process and share the receipts. Even more so now. It's a way to build credibility and trust with readers. If there are specific docs you think I should pursue via FOIA reach out

1st post here: a note of hope? “Daylighting" is the work of bringing buried rivers back to the surface & sun, in cities where they've been entombed. Here’s @emilyraboteau.bsky.social on a $133m daylighting project in the Bronx. Here’s to doing things differently. pioneerworks.org/broadcast/da...
