So a judge already ruled that these surveillance systems violate your 4th amendment rights. But I’m the conspiracy theorist who says Peter Thiel&his cronies, including 🇮🇱🇺🇸 r committing treason and crimes against humanity just to get their agendas pushed through. What a bunch of WEINERS hiding in offices of implied immunity and political statuses #nwo #FLOCKOFF #surveillancestate #minorityreport #corruption

Kevin G. Andrade of The New Bedford Light shared insights on navigating sourcing relationships with immigrant communities at the 2026 Gloria L. Negri First Amendment Institute.

Hosted annually by NEFAC, the Negri Institute brings together journalists from all six New England states for in-person and remote training on the latest investigative and database reporting techniques and public records access skills. Fellows learn from leading voices in journalism and media law and take those insights and tools back to their newsrooms and communities.

As part of the panel Common Sourcing Pitfalls and How to Respond, Andrade explored the complexities of sourcing with immigrants, including how journalists can navigate these relationships thoughtfully, build trust, and approach reporting with care and understanding.

Last post got taken down, let’s try this again….
These “entrusted officials” will violate you and try to silence you.
Imagine expecting a fair and impartial hearing just for them to expose you and your family/children to one of these members leaked Porno of them jerking off and then try to shutdown your testimony and line of questioning just because they know their answers would be an admission of guilt. AND THEN CALL THE COPS ON YOU!
They don’t care about us and if you stay silent then you can’t claim you love and care for your children when you subject them to a system filled with pedophiles, rapists and tyrants with no accountability or repercussions for their violations #cowards #government #corruption #exposed

@edmarkey and @johndeaton4senate clashed on the debate stage at @wbztv for the first and only time Tuesday night in the campaign for the U.S Senate seat held by Markey. The Democratic incumbent spent the night wrapping Deaton’s bid as a Republican attempt to bolster Trump’s political control. The Republican challenger, for his part, dredged up Markey’s positions against busing and abortion from 50 years ago. Read full story at @newbedfordlight.

A new Trump administration interpretation of the Endangered Species Act could make it legal to accidentally kill or injure an endangered animal, as long as the species was not the intended target, reports #INNetwork member @newbedfordlight.

Marine researchers and advocates say the change could have major consequences for North Atlantic right whales, whose leading human-caused threats are vessel strikes and fishing gear entanglements.

“Nearly all human-caused deaths of endangered marine species are accidental,” Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution scientist Mark Baumgartner said.

The new rules would also allow federal officials to consider economic impacts when managing endangered species. New England Aquarium conservation chief Letise LaFeir warned that short-term economic considerations could undermine the science used to prevent extinction.
