The first time Kovarik saw private data used by ICE agents was a couple days after Christmas. They were observing ICE agents while a friend from Robbinsdale drove. The agents had already stopped them to warn they'd be arrested, but they kept following the vehicle. Then they realized the agents were leading them to their friend's home in Robbinsdale. "He pulled up to her house, both the agents got out of the car and were both performatively and theatrically taking pictures of her house," Kovarik said. "Then they drove off and they went around to the back alley behind her house and took pictures of the back of her house." It happened again to Kovarik last week when an ICE agent led them to a residence where Kovarik used to live. "It's one of many intimidation tactics, and obviously people should be safe," Kovarik said, "but if you feel pretty comfortable that ... they're not really going to be able to do anything to harm you, I think it's to our benefit to show them that we're not scared."

I was investigating PFAS. Then a doctor told me to put it in my eyes. Facing a painful and distracting case of dry eye, a reporter went looking for treatments. What she found was surprising.

Our reporter was investigating Minnesota’s ban on PFAS chemicals when she faced a painful and distracting case of dry eye. So @chloeajohnson.bsky.social went looking for treatments. She was prescribed an eye drop that's a type of PFAS.

Colorado man declared dead by Social Security still fighting to restart payments: “I’m at my wit’s end” Alex Vukovich’s Social Security check disappeared from his bank account in late January after the federal agency mistakenly placed him on its list of deceased recipients.

The Social Security Administration snatched Alex Vukovich’s January payment right out of his bank account and hasn’t made February or March payments — because the government insists he's dead. (He's not)

We tested household products for PFAS using Minnesota’s new regulations. Here’s what we found. The Star Tribune used a screening test similar to what the MPCA would. Some results were above the level that could trigger a state inquiry.

Today's must-read from @chloeajohnson.bsky.social & @readbrooks.bsky.social... They bought items from local stores & tested them for PFAS chemicals to see how Minnesota's new law is working. www.startribune.com/we-tested-ho...
