“You’re Not Going to Investigate a Federal Officer” It doesn’t happen often, but local law enforcement can arrest and charge federal agents. Legal experts say there’s a moral obligation to at least try to hold federal immigration officers accountable w...

After Trump Officials Cut Food Aid to Kenya, Children Starved to Death “Brutal and traumatizing”: Interviews and a trove of internal documents show government officials and aid workers desperately tried to warn Trump advisers about impending disaster and death.

A story that should shock our collective conscience: After Trump Cuts to Kenya Food Aid, Children Died of Starvation

NEW: Inside the Trump administration’s man-made hunger crisis in the world’s third largest refugee camp.

After the U.S. failed to fund the World Food Program in Kenya, we went to the Kakuma refugee camp. This is what we found:

Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera. Behind closed doors in Washington, top advisers made a series of decisions that had devastating repercussions for the poorest country on earth. We went to South Sudan and found people who died as a re...

This summer, Brett Murphy, @peterdicampo.bsky.social and I went to South Sudan, where the U.S. had been supporting the response to a historic cholera outbreak in the world’s poorest country before pulling the plug.

We found shuttered clinics and dead bodies. www.propublica.org/article/usai...

No-brainer proposals met with strikethroughs. Great.

Psychiatric Hospitals Turn Away Patients Who Need Urgent Care. The Facilities Face Few Consequences. Discharging patients who are at risk of harming themselves or others is illegal. But dozens of psychiatric hospitals aren’t honoring the law — and the government isn’t following up.

EMTALA requires universal care for “emergency medical conditions” regardless of a person’s insurance status.

In the decades since its passage, some patients have died hours after failing to receive care they were legally entitled to.

Congress Is Pushing for a Medicaid Work Requirement. Here’s What Happened When Georgia Tried It. GOP lawmakers want to nationalize Medicaid work requirements to offset Trump’s proposed tax cuts.

GOP lawmakers want to nationalize Medicaid work requirements to offset Trump’s proposed tax cuts. Georgia is the only state with such a mandate. Its experience shows that the federal effort could threaten health care for nearly 16 million Americans & cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars.

Three colleagues are being placed on PIPs today, and
@propublica.org management has refused to allow stewards in those meetings. We're not shutting up about this — our colleagues deserve better and we're extremely disappointed in management for denying us this basic union right.

A month later, a 17-year-old killed a classmate at Antioch High School.

According to researchers, both were active in the same online networks that glorify mass shooters.

Incredible @adn.com front page for @kylehopkinsak.bsky.social story about trial delays in Alaska. Read it here: projects.propublica.org/alaska-sex-a...

In today's story, @lucaswaldron.bsky.social + @zisiga.bsky.social created a timeline of the mind-numbing decade of delays in a single case. A tracker ticks the delays as you scroll.

The most recent hearing was held on Dec. 16, 2024, when Judge Peterson set a trial date for June 2025.

Tense, compelling illustrations by @nicolerifkin.bsky.social. In two stories this week, @kylehopkinsak.bsky.social chronicles shocking delays in the AK justice system as they take years to send sexual assault cases to trial.
