We dug into a similar situation in Colombia a couple years ago. Four children died and more than a hundred fell ill after receiving a drug that’s often used in chemotherapy treatment, @bloomberg.com found. This shouldn’t keep happening. 🎁 link www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Argentina is going through one of its worst health crises: more than 100 people died after receiving contaminated fentanyl in hospitals in different provinces. @elhilopodcast.bsky.social talks with the families who were forced to investigate on their own what happened to their loved ones.

The idea of using private equity firms to manage foreign development is gaining steam. So we started digging into what happened after the Wall Street giant TPG took over hospitals in Africa and Asia. Here are the takeaways 🎁 link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Journalism has brought me into contact with a lot of sources who tried to blow the whistle. Often, those people ask to be anonymous. This is the rare story of someone who took on a major Wall Street firm and is willing to tell her story. 🎁 link www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Important read from the always impeccable @azmatzahra.bsky.social among many other strong contributors. Every journalist, as well as open source researchers, should take a moment for this and take action now to defend press freedom in Gaza.

It would be unthinkable for an urban firefighter to enter a burning home with no mask. But internal records revealed the US Forest Service’s rationale for not equipping firefighters with masks: to admit the dangers of smoke, triggering a cascade of costly changes. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/17/u...

Eye-opening reporting from @tchristianmiller.bsky.social and Sebastian Rotella about how El Salvador’s government impeded a U.S. Probe of MS-13 www.propublica.org/article/buke...

The government’s own data, obtained by @propublica.org, @texastribune.org and journalists from Venezuela, showed that officials knew that only 32 of the deportees had been convicted of U.S. crimes and that most were nonviolent offenses www.propublica.org/article/trum...

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 for the reporting, sources and #foia work that led to the release of this important memo, which further undercuts the Trump administration’s rationale for using the Alien Enemies Act to deport scores of Venezuelans to a prison in El Salvador. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/05/u...

"Washington Post review of websites operated by the National Park Service — among the key agencies charged with the preservation of American history — found that edits on dozens of pages since Trump’s inauguration have already softened descriptions of some of the most shameful moments of the nation"

Incredible @laurawags.bsky.social profile of NPR's Anas Baba, whose bravery is unmatched www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/...

For more than a year, my colleague Justin Scheck and I looked into why domestic workers from across East Africa, who are promised jobs and a better life in Saudi Arabia, continued to face abuse, starvation and death. Here's what we found.

Scoop: As federal health agencies are gutted, Kyle Diamantas, a Florida attorney w/ a slim resume + no prior gov't experience, is the new head of food safety at @US_FDA. Turns out, he's Donald Trump Jr.'s hunting buddy, @vanityfair.com is reporting exclusively: www.vanityfair.com/news/story/f... /1

NEW: The acting SEC chairman sought a pledge from staffers that their investigation of Musk was not influenced by politics, an unusual and jarring request that they rejected. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Incredible stuff in here: They ID'ed him, in part, by going to court hearings and watching him post

The Dep't of Health and Human Services laid off employees Saturday evening across some of its biggest agencies, including the FDA and CDC. Those laid off included people who evaluate the safety of medical devices. @rachelcohrs.bsky.social @bloomberg.com Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"The administration has put members of the team within USAID responsible for maintaining the notification system on leave or locked out those remaining...The move has put at risk the lives of US citizens & other aid workers in countries where the US has military operations, including Yemen & Syria."

🧵 THREAD: Trump and Rubio have arrested the international humanitarian aid system and forced lifesaving aid programs to completely halt operations — despite an announcement earlier in the week claiming they had changed course. 1/

While digging through obscure government records, my co-workers and I stumbled on something surprising. We learned that while the CDC releases data about whether fertility treatments are successful, it keeps information about procedures that have gone wrong under lock and key.

Some of China’s senior doctors are raising concern over the quality of domestic generic medicines that have largely replaced western brand-name drugs at hospitals, amid a rare public backlash against the government’s drive to cut medical costs 🎁 Gift Link www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is a powerful documentary about midwives, birth, and for-profit healthcare. Don’t want to spoil it, but I promise the first few gripping minutes alone are worth your time. www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/...

Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg had their PR people coordinate this exchange, (in case you were wondering).

I've spent the last few months digging into abuses at World Bank-financed private hospitals from Uganda to the Philippines. Working with colleagues we found widespread cases of patient detention, denial of emergency care and corpse retention. Free link here: www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

My colleagues and I have been digging into the World Bank’s investments in for-profit hospitals from Africa to Asia. We found the bank ignored warnings as patients were detained and denied emergency care. 🎁 link that’s free for a week: www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

A finales de 2023, la periodista @kendalltaggart.bsky.social publicó un reportaje que reveló cómo una quimioterapia contaminada viajó desde la India hasta Colombia, y se usó en niños con cáncer. ¿Cómo pudo pasar esto? 🔊 bit.ly/3WdhwDW

La emergencia en una clínica en Colombia expone un sistema donde las farmacéuticas y el control de calidad no están necesariamente alineados. ¿Cómo el negocio de la medicina se sobrepone a las necesidades de pacientes vulnerables en países de América Latina bit.ly/3PwHVZM

When a reporter asked where neighbors placed blame for the disaster, few mentioned climate change: "It was the wind…It was God, or population growth, or the way that Californians tucked their homes into the foothills. It was a lack of investment in infrastructure.” www.politico.com/news/magazin...

The talented folks at the podcast El Hilo, which covers stories from Latin America, just released their latest episode. It’s based on a @bloomberg.com investigation I worked on trying to understand why dozens of children were given contaminated chemo drugs. Gracias for having me on!

Every time I get a spam call or spam text, I wish I could explain to these scammers how much harder they’re making it for journalists who actually need to reach strangers for good reasons!

And beyond NYPD car crashes, we’ve published a trove of internal NYPD investigative documents about various use of force incidents. It took years to pry them loose through a public records lawsuit. But now you can download them for yourself (links at the bottom of the story)

This is a masterpiece of both investigative reporting and narrative storytelling. Please take the time to read this haunting piece and to marvel at what @davidmcswane.bsky.social has uncovered. I'll be thinking about this story for a long, long time: www.propublica.org/article/thom...

Biden should commute IRS whistleblower Charles Littlejohn’s sentence, says @michellegoldberg.bsky.social He’s why we know about Trump’s taxes and the tax avoidance of dozens of billionaires. This cause has gotten very little attention: www.nytimes.com/2024/12/03/o...

The journalist shield bill passed the House unanimously. It has support from Jim Jordan, Mike Lee and Tucker Carlson. But now Trump says "REPUBLICANS MUST KILL THIS BILL!" The bill would codify protections against the feds seizing the records of journalists. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/u...

So, @propublica.org reports that Georgia's maternal mortality review committee determined that two women died after being denied access to care under the state's abortion ban, and Georgia's response is to dismiss all members of the committee. www.propublica.org/article/geor...
