to even begin to hit up against the boundaries of where they realized they had to ratchet back.
And I think we cannot underestimate the power of what it takes for both incredible organizers to have the courage to tell stories and people who are directly affected increasingly having many more tools to tell their own stories about that, which I think is an incredibly influential and important part of the media ecosystem right now.
But also that takes deep investigative reporting because I think there's a lot of things that
They tell the public layer of, but then there's always the secret layer, including, like I mentioned, with the third country deportations.
I think there was a lot of that that they told publicly, like they were tweeting about it and they were saying, like, we're deporting the worst of the worst and we're sending them to Eswatini and we're sending them to Ghana.
But then beneath that, there was also a lot of secrecy that we need reporting to unveil, including like the financial deals that they paid to these countries to take people, like including Eswatini got, you know, $5 million or more to make these arrangements.
El Salvador, we know with the Seacott prison where people were deported, even folks who were not from El Salvador and then sexually assaulted there.
So we need secrecy.
both the people who are willing to come forth and share their stories.
And we need the journalism that's going to unearth that.
So I'm just glad that all of you are in this room, like interested in reporting, because I think this is a moment that I've never felt as deeply or seen as much evidence for the arguments for why we need it.
Sarah, you were incredible.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
