ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.
No one knows why he was detained.

Plastic pollution is a problem.
People should use less plastic when they can
Straws became a culture-war flashpoint and are not the biggest source of plastic pollution.
Everyone talks about this, especially solutions, wrong.
Some people absolutely need plastic straws.

The story behind RFK Jr. in Samoa's measles crisis has never been reported. He wasn't there to spread misinformation about vaccines (though he did). He wanted to study a "natural experiment" of unvaccinated kids.

Experts saw Samoa's plunging vaccination rates as a crisis. RFK Jr. saw an opportunity.
New details show how Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then chair of an anti-vaccine group and now Trump’s pick for health secretary, sought to exploit a deadly vaccine accident.

Long day. Trying to get back into leisure reading. What are your fave *light* fiction books? Adventure is good. Romance is fine. Good writing is a must.
