Firing a reporter via email while she’s in a war zone risking her life for her readers is a despicable, disgraceful act.

I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.

It was a dream to report for the Washington Post.
I’m heartbroken to be among those laid off today.
This profile was one of my last bylines. I want to keep telling stories that matter.

If @JeffBezos follows through with reported staff cuts, he will kneecap @washingtonpost journalism at a critical moment for our democracy.
Please join @PostGuild this Thursday at 12pm for a rally in front of the Post's DC office #SaveThePost

When I joined @postlocal in 2020, we had a staff of between 80 and 90 people. Now, we’re hovering at about 40. And yet, we still break news of national/int’l import. We hold power accountable. Our work changes lives.
The nation’s capital needs a hometown newspaper. #SaveThePost

The Washington Post has long done — and is still doing — great journalism. I don’t understand how laying off a bunch of talented and hardworking journalists solves what is fundamentally a publisher and business side problem. The Post deserves better.

I’ve driven into hurricanes, trekked through jungles and camped on an ice sheet in sub-zero temperatures to bring you news about climate change.
If you value this work, and everything else you read in @washingtonpost, help us send a message to @JeffBezos: #SavethePost
Caroline Kitchener retweeted
As international correspondents and reporters for the @washingtonpost, we risk our safety to investigate authoritarian governments, report from gang-controlled towns and document evidence of stolen elections. This on-the-ground reporting is more critical than ever. #SaveThePost

Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.)
But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.
Despite how difficult this job can be, I am proud to be a foreign correspondent at The Washington Post.

Back in 2007, @sbg1 launched The Fact Checker at the @washingtonpost complete with Pinocchios and over the past 14 years at the helm, the amazing @GlennKesslerWP built it into a powerful and important tool for accountability in a free society.

I spoke with several CDC workers cut from the highly-specialized Division of Reproductive Health that monitored IVF & tracked maternal/infant health.

US fertility, per new CDC data:
⚫ In 1990, teens accounted for 12.8% of US births, and just 4 percent by 2023.
⚫In 1990, women 40 and older accounted for 1.2% of births, and 4.1% by 2023
⚫ In 1990, 7 in 10 births were to women under 30. By 2023, less than 1 in 2 (48.6%).

NEW: I wrote about Dr. Maggie Carpenter, the New York abortion provider who is facing criminal charges in Louisiana and a $100,000 penalty (with interest) in Texas.
It's part of an evolving "states' rights" strategy to restrict abortion nationwide

The reason why you know about this in the first place is because of the late night and early morning work of reporters at @washingtonpost washingtonpost.com/politics/…

Trust in public health agencies has fallen and not recovered.
I asked Biden’s top health official what he thinks went wrong.
“I can’t go toe to toe with social media,” HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said.

On the ground for the #palisadesfire in Pacific Palisades.
The fire has erupted to 770+ acres. Winds are still strong.
My elderly dad lives less than a mile from here. These are my favorite mountains to run in. Always gutting reporting on my home burning.

NEW: USPS says it will continue to mail abortion pills “so long as” DOJ's guidance of the Comstock Act — which effectively protects abortion providers — stays the same
This suggests USPS is leaving the door open for the guidance to change under Trump

A profound loss for The Washington Post. @mateagold is a gifted leader, rigorous journalist and trusted friend to many. Matea's legacy at The Post will be the excellence and ambition she inspired in so many here. Her new colleagues at The Times are lucky. nytimes.com/2024/12/09/busin…

Nearly a dozen states have voted to enshrine abortion protections in their state constitutions. But anti-abortion groups think they can chip away at (and eventually overturn) these "Mini Roes" just as they did to Roe v. Wade. Here's how: politico.com/news/2024/11/12…
