“You are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” is what a US Education Department spokesperson wrote to one of our reporters, @megomatz.bsky.social, after she repeatedly tried to get comment from the department and its officials. My column on the condemnation of good journalism.

Devastating portrait of a life cut short: Lung transplant patient Hannah Goetz’s life depended on the generic version of a critical drug. It was supposed to be equivalent to the brand-name medication — but the FDA doesn’t always ensure that’s the case. www.propublica.org/article/fda-...

THREAD: Just about every one of us has a bottle of generic medication somewhere in our house. But how much do we know about who made those drugs, and how? The @fda.gov has made it difficult to find any of those details. 1/ www.propublica.org/article/fda-...

THREAD: The FDA has made it difficult to find where medications are made. Today we're changing that with our latest tool. With Rx Inspector, it’s possible to see your drug’s manufacturing facility and what the FDA found during its inspections. Here's how you can use it. 1/

It was amazing to watch the journalists who built this tool at work. Months and months of painstaking effort, careful reporting behind every decision. It's the kind of work that ProPublica does best.

NEW Introducing Rx Inspector The FDA won’t tell Americans where their generic drugs are made, so @propublica.org is doing it instead. Use information on your prescription label to locate the factory and see FDA inspection reports we've obtained. projects.propublica.org/rx-inspector/

NEW: The FDA won’t tell Americans where their generic drugs are made, so ProPublica did it instead. Use information from your prescription label to locate the factory and see if the plant has a history of inspection violations.

As the Trump administration ordered agencies to eradicate “illegal” diversity, equity and inclusion efforts, @emsimani.bsky.social has identified more than 1,000 nonprofits that removed such language from the mission statements in their tax filings. www.propublica.org/article/dele...

New @propublica.org: @emsimani.bsky.social analyzed nonprofit tax filings and found that more than 1,000 charities have stripped DEI-related language from their mission statements this year. www.propublica.org/article/dele...

With so many nonprofits making a year-end push for donations, it helps to do some research before deciding where to give. @propublica.org's Nonprofit Explorer tool has details on millions of orgs (including ProPublica) with helpful info like executive compensation, revenue, and expenses.

After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing hens and spiking egg prices, the USDA didn’t investigate whether the virus was airborne. @natlash.bsky.social did. www.propublica.org/article/bird...

👀👀👀 "Emails from UCLA’s fundraising department, obtained by FOIAball, show the school is steering money to the charity, with explicit notes that it be earmarked for football NIL."

This bird flu investigation is well worth your time. I got a little peek behind the curtain into the data analysis and it's truly impressive work from @natlash.bsky.social www.propublica.org/article/bird...

Tracking the spread of bird flu using genetic markers, satellite imagery, property records, and more reminds me of John Snow’s Cholera investigation/map. Howe’s Hens is the modern day Broad Street Pump. Amazing work from @natlash.bsky.social & @chrisalcantara.com. www.propublica.org/article/meth...

Spanberger ran up wild margins in the DC/Richmond suburbs, flipped 6 Trump counties, and cut her losses in the rest of the state — some SWVA counties moved 15-20 points to her compared to 2021 gov's race. My first election results for @washingtonpost.com ! www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

WATCH: ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the 94 million pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the Trump administration’s cuts to The Emergency Food Assistance Program. ➡️ Read more: https://propub.li/4odsKnn

We’ve reported extensively on how the FDA allowed foreign drugmakers to send generic medications to the U.S. from factories with filthy labs and contaminated equipment. This month, we’re digging deeper and could use your help. THREAD/

Food banks had scheduled 94mil(!) pounds of food deliveries through a government program that buys meat, dairy, eggs and produce from American farmers and sends them to help people in need. Trump’s USDA abruptly canceled those deliveries. projects.propublica.org/trump-food-c...

In the spring, Trump cut $500 million from aid to food banks. But they had already ordered 94 million pounds of food from the program — all abruptly canceled. People at food banks noticed. The cuts meant less meat and lighter pickups. We visualized it: projects.propublica.org/trump-food-c...

We dug deep to answer this important question: How Many Federal Health Workers Have RFK Jr. and the Trump Administration Cut? @bxroberts.org @anniewaldman.bsky.social @pratheekrebala.bsky.social

NEW: In March, the Trump administration announced a massive purge of workers at the nation's health agencies. We asked them how many workers were laid off, pushed out or left. They refused to give us numbers. So we conducted our own analysis... 🧵 projects.propublica.org/federal-heal...

More than ‎20,500 workers have left or been pushed out of federal health agencies, a ProPublica analysis found. Staffers say the cuts will leave their agencies less equipped to conduct studies, perform inspections and combat deadly outbreaks. projects.propublica.org/federal-heal...

The administration wouldn’t tell @propublica.org — or anyone — who has been cut from federal health agencies. That’s fine. We’ve been analyzing their directories since Jan. Turns out, we’ve lost thousands of scientists, regulators and other crucial roles. projects.propublica.org/federal-heal...
