'People are angry': Behind the wave of asylum hotel protests
The BBC visits sites of protests to hear the voices of those opposed to the hotels and others in support of asylum seekers.
That there has been a deliberate campaign, not just by far-right extremist organizations, but by "mainstream" journalists and papers (then echoed by broadcasters), to foment hatred and violence against asylum-seekers (but also against Muslims), seems not to occur to the author of this BBC piece.

RFK Jrโs health department to halt $500m in mRNA vaccine research
Agency to end 22 federal contracts, questioning safety of technology credited with helping end Covid pandemic
Halting vaccine funding is a deeply dangerous and wildly irresponsible policy decision.
๐ฅ COVID-19 showed the crucial life saving role of vaccines.

Tesla, Elon Musk sued by shareholders over Robotaxi claims
Elon Musk and Tesla were sued by shareholders who accused them of securities fraud for concealing the significant risk that the company's self-driving vehicles, including the Robotaxi, were dangerous.
"Tesla's Robotaxi test showed the vehicles speeding, braking suddenly, driving over a curb, entering the wrong lane, and dropping off passengers in the middle of multilane roads.
Tesla's share price fell 6.1% over two trading days after the test began, wiping out about $68 billion of market value."
