72% of people swept up in Trump’s immigration raids have no criminal record.
That includes at least 250 people detained in deplorable conditions in his “Alligator Alcatraz” in Florida.

Dual therapy with finerenone + empagliflozin cut albuminuria by ~30% more than either drug alone in CKD + T2D—with no added safety concerns.
A promising step for combo treatment in DKD.
