My story:

Camera on Trump — who's been up much of the night — catches him repeatedly closing his eyes, swaying through this press conference.

In my opinion? A spectacularly bad move to our economic system, with lots of damage to individuals, families, and small businesses.

The nation’s largest employers are putting their workers on notice Amazon and Walmart are among firms warning employees of layoffs or disruption from AI as leaders across corporate America talk of increasing efficiency.

White words on a black background read: 50+ Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino. ~130 Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. ~20 Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

How the Head of an Embattled Tennessee Youth Detention Center Held on to Power for Decades Richard L. Bean remained in his perch as the superintendent of the juvenile detention center that bears his name despite scandals, investigations and the use of seclusion to punish children.

NEW: Only three board members had the power to remove Richard L. Bean as superintendent of the Tennessee juvenile detention center that bears his name.

And for decades, those positions have been held down by his closest friends and allies.

It’s Long COVID Awareness Day. While the worst of the pandemic is over for most, there’s more we must do to educate people about Long COVID and ensure that those in our communities who are struggling get the help they need. That's why I will keep working to pass my bipartisan Long COVID Support Act.

F.D.A. Cancels Meeting of Vaccine Experts Scheduled to Advise on Flu Shots The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.

“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"

Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

I’ve always been skeptical of folks who say Trump is a literal ‘Russian asset’ or that Moscow has ‘kompromat’ on him, and the Russia obsession hurt the Dems in term one… but… how does anyone explain this? Justify this? How?

“we must ask whether defenders of civil rights are acting as boldly as the enemies of progress…rollbacks of affirmative and attacks on diversity and inclusion efforts are new iterations on the same old story of White attacks on Black advancement.”
