NEW: @maxblau.bsky.social spent a year reporting on abuses of farmworkers. It left him wondering: Is there any way to find out whether the produce he buys at the grocery store comes from farms with a record of mistreating workers?

NEW: In February, I visited Raw Farm. You may have heard of it. RFK Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow are customers. It supplies raw dairy products to 500 stores nationwide. And regulators have linked it to over a dozen recalls and outbreaks that have made hundreds sick. 🧵👇

Here's the latest in my reporting on the vitamin K shot for babies. I reached out to Dr. Mercola, a leading vaccine skeptic who has cautioned parents against the shot for years. I was surprised at what happened next. www.propublica.org/article/vita...

You probably saw videos of a nighttime raid in Chicago. Agents rappelling from a helicopter, bursting down doors, questioning brown-skinned immigrants. We investigated -- and found little evidence to support the government’s claims about Tren de Aragua. www.propublica.org/article/chic...

The FBI has recently used polygraph tests to ask senior employees if they have said anything negative about FBI Director Kash Patel or had spoken to the media. Separately, Patel granted waivers to Deputy Director Dan Bongino and two other staffers, exempting them from passing polygraph exams.

ProPublica analyzed dozens of hours of audio and video footage of speaking events for Linda McMahon’s appointees, as well as their writings, and found that a recurring theme is the desire to enable more families to leave public schools. @megomatz.bsky.social @jsmithrichards.bsky.social

A year ago, I got a tip from a source: there was an influential child abuse pediatrician in Minneapolis whose judgment on diagnoses of child abuse had been called into question: Dr. Nancy Harper. So I started digging… 🧵 www.propublica.org/article/chil...

Massive NEW team effort: Elon Musk’s Demolition Crew The Key Figures Working Alongside Elon Musk at DOGE and in the Trump Administration

Yesteday we brought you the story of how insurers have relied on doctors, some of whom “shut their eyes” to medical opinions that opposed their conclusions. Today, @mayatmiller.bsky.social and I tell you the story of how insurers cite progress as a reason to deny www.propublica.org/article/ment...
