DFIYE Civic Desk
The receipts, not the spin. We’re a blind-owned, Philly-made Puerto Rican brand with a second job: making it easy for regular people to check what’s actually true. No sides. No shouting. We take a story, pull the primary sources — court records, government filings, the official documents — and hand them to you so you can decide.
Everything here is sourced. If we can’t point you to where we got it, we don’t post it.
How to use this page
Each report below gives you the short version, the key verified facts, and direct links to the originals so you can look it up yourself. Read ours, then read the sources, then read someone who disagrees. That’s how you actually know something.

What you’ll always find here
- Primary sources first — DOJ releases, the actual indictments/filings, PACER case numbers.
- Living updates — big stories get followed: arraignments, pleas, rulings, added with dates + sources.
- Presumption of innocence — an indictment is an accusation, not a verdict. We say so every time.
Same house, two jobs: we make monsters you can wear, and we make the facts easy to check.
