Watching Ricardo Sandoval-Palos inducted into the @officialnahj.bsky.social Hall of Fame was a highlight of this weekend. Public editor at PBS and co-author of "The Fight in the Fields." Celebrated alongside Los Camineros and longtime mentor Alfredo Corchado.
Touched down in NOLA in time for late-night chargrilled oysters. 🦪 Up early the next day at NAHJ with a brilliant panel. We talked immigration past and present, the fight for transparency and digging into the stories that remind us of our humanity.
Spain wins the 2026 World Cup and sets a new record of 38 straight games unbeaten. A boring but deserving machine of a champion.
this is an excellent read. i've been thinking about this for months, since a mexican-american friend from san antonio who now lives in MN told me he couldn't imagine texans reacting to ICE violence the way minnesotans did. this explains some of the important historical context.

Calling this Fourth “America’s 250th birthday” indulges a comfortable fiction. Juneteenth is our more honest Independence Day, and the American experiment dates back well before 1776. Yet we’re getting a birthday party when what this nation needs is us focused on repair.
