How ICE Raids Are Making It Easier for Civilian Men to Assault Immigrant Women "This phenomenon is only possible because of the outsized power that state agents have always had to abuse and control women and victims' bodies," argues Kylie Cheung.

Recent reporting alleges that civilian men are impersonating ICE agents to kidnap and sexually assault immigrant women, with cases in North Carolina and New York.

Unmasking ICE agents is important, but itโ€™s a Band-Aid on a broader, systemic crisis. Read @kylietcheung.bsky.social's full Op-Ed โคต๏ธ

How RFK Jr.โ€™s misguided science on mRNA vaccines is shaping policy โˆ’ a vaccine expert examines the false claims Chaos at the CDC and the sharp move away from mRNA vaccines has public health experts alarmed.

If youโ€™re wondering how much of what RFK Jr said yesterday about vaccines was trueโ€”almost none of it was.

@FullerLab_UW is one of the most accomplished vaccinologists out there and her article is required reading to separate truth from falsehoods.

Business keeps supporting diversity & inclusion

Annual shareholder meetings keep voting down bigoted proposals put forward by anti-DEI groups such as Stephen Miller's America First Legal โ€” this week it is expected to become 30/30 corporations voting to support DEI

Under Trump, hospitals arenโ€™t sacred, but golf clubs are. If you're undocumented and mopping floors at Mar-a-Lago, youโ€™re fine. But if you're saving lives in an ER, ICE might be waiting outside. This isnโ€™t policy. Itโ€™s cruelty on a loyalty test. thehill.com/policy/healt...
