📻 There is still a lot of disinformation floating around about #immigration even among people who mean well!

📊 @gbhnews should interview #immigration experts such as our own @austinkocher and @adam about #ICE detention data

MastodonAustin Kocher, PhD 🌎 (@austinkocher@mastodon.social)Attached: 1 image The largest growth in immigrants in detention during the first month of the Trump administration, based on ICE's own snapshot data, comes from immigrants with no criminal convictions or charges.

A big shout-out to @gbhnews for another incredible podcast series! I'm midway through "Scratch & Win", which documents the meteoric rise of the Massachusetts State Lottery, and it's pure nerd catnip: organized crime, gambling, power, machine politics, combinatorics, computer science history! I can't believe the interviews they managed to get (and that the closing song is sung by the former state treasurer). All props to the production and editing team. Ian, Isabel, Lacy, and everyone involved should be really proud. Waiting for the inevitable HBO miniseries!

Quote from episode 1 transcript:

The Massachusetts Lottery had already rejected nearly twenty prototypes by the time they settled on a final design -- the one with the paper flaps. Only to have John Koza, this recently graduated wiz kid with a dimpled chin and a combover, show up and tell them it was flawed. So on the spot they made a deal. Koza could take home 50 tickets and do his best to prove they could be hacked.

GBHScratch & WinNever in American history has it been so easy to gamble, legally at least. We’ve got casinos, sports betting, online poker, keno — but it was all made possible by state lotteries, which brought gambling out of the shadows and into the public square — into the government itself.“Scratch & Win” follows the unlikely rise of America’s most successful lottery. We begin in 1970s Boston, with state bureaucrats going toe to toe with mafia bookmakers, and each other, as they struggle to launch the state's greatest innovation: the scratch ticket. But the story reaches all the way to the present moment. How do we feel about the gambling industry that lotteries helped summon into being? And should the state be in this business at all?“Scratch & Win” is made by the Peabody Award-winning team behind “The Big Dig,” produced by GBH News and distributed by PRX.

L'UE s'intéresse (enfin) aux magouilles de GBH en Outre-mer

#PostColonialisme #GBH #VieChere

GBH fait la loi sur les prix en Outre-mer, et ça commence à sentir le roussi. Cinq eurodéputés écologistes ont saisi la Commission européenne pour dénoncer son monopole et ses tarifs qui étranglent les habitants. Bruxelles va-t-elle se bouger le train et mettre fin au racket, ou continuer de jouer les aveugles pendant que les ultramarins casquent ?

🚔 Journalist and Globe columnist Marcela García was just interviewed on Boston Public Radio. According to her, a rumor spread about alleged ICE raids at Chelsea's Market Basket and now customers, mostly immigrants, stopped shopping there. She says that Market Basket looks like a Ghost Town now.

These are the actual consequences of Trump's blatant lies.

🚔 La periodista y columnista del Boston Globe Marcela García fue entrevistada en Boston Public Radio. Según ella, se corrió un rumor sobre supuestas redadas de ICE en el Market Basket de Chelsea y los clientes, en su mayoría inmigrantes, dejaron de ir a hacer el mercado allí. Dice que ahora Market Basket parece un desierto, sin clientes.

Estas son las consecuencias de las mentiras y medidas indignas de Trump y su camarilla.
