🚨BREAKING: The California Supreme Court permanently disbarred John Eastman — a key architect in President Donald Trump’s failed attempt to overturn the 2020 election — delivering one of the most consequential professional penalties yet for an election denier. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Late last summer, a small group of political appointees began convening at DHS HQ. The group — which once called itself “Team America” — looked for federal levers it could pull to make Trump’s March executive order about elections a reality. @dougbockclark.bsky.social @jenafifield.bsky.social
Thanks for the support.

“We're fighting for fair pay because people deserve to be able to afford to stay in the jobs that they love. We're fighting for protections around AI because this work is done by humans.
We love this place. We believe in this work, and we are not backing down.”
— Katie Campbell, video journalist
I take no pleasure in saying that I and my @propublicaguild.org colleagues are on strike.
It shouldn't have come to this and i can only hope that seeing the overwhelming majority of staff walk out today opens management's eyes and convinces them we're serious about our demands.
We're on strike! Don't visit propublica.org on April 8
We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today.
Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...
Thank you for your support 🙏🏽 Yes, you can support our union by donating to our strike fund. Follow us on social media soon for other ways to support too! share.google/eUNCM4cLGmVs...
I didn’t think we’d get to this point but here we are. Please support our fight for a fair contract by honoring our strike today.
The sooner we can reach an agreement on the contract, the sooner we can get back to doing journalism in this urgent time.
Promo for ProPublica news app event crossed out
If you registered to come to the event today on how to use the ProPublica Trump disclosures News app, the @propublicaguild.org is asking y’all NOT TO ATTEND in support of our strike today. We hate to do this, but management isn’t offering us a fair deal.
ProPublica launched a database that helps journalists, researchers and others more easily find and connect pieces of financial information about individuals in key executive branch positions.
Join us on Wednesday, April 8, for a walk-through of the new tool.

I took a closer look at the ProPublica union’s vote to strike, including their demand for protection from AI-related layoffs.
The vote marks the first time a major U.S. newsroom has authorized a strike, at least in part, over AI protections. www.niemanlab.org/2026/03/prop...
Yesterday, 92% of us voted YES (w/ 99% participation) to authorize a strike if @propublica.org management refuses to compromise on core issues.
We need a fair contract that will protect the in-depth investigative reporting that our readers expect.

Here's a link to the database. Remember, democracy is a participation sport. Don't sit on the sidelines. projects.propublica.org/trump-team-f...
Since last year, I and Al Shaw & @bxroberts.org have investigated the linkages between Trump appointees and the industries they oversee. Today we published a searchable database containing approximately 3,200 financial disclosure forms of roughly 1500 officials.
www.propublica.org/article/trum...
Screenshot of ProPublica webpage titled “Explore Financial Disclosures From President Trump and 1,500 of His Appointees,” accompanied by this blurb: “Use this database to explore potential conflicts of interest for President Donald Trump and his team. The documents disclose positions officials have held outside government, their assets and their debts, among other things.” A search bar prompts the user to search for a person or financial holding.
THREAD: We just released a tool that allows you to search billions of dollars in wealth, ties to the most powerful companies in the country, and details of the personal finances of President Trump and over 1,500 of his appointees.
Here’s how it works 1/
