GOP Speaker Johnson refusing to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva despite winning her election 2 weeks ago with 70% of the vote is a practice run for what GOP plans to do after 2026 election. They will not seat Democrats who won to keep control of the House. Dems need to fight hard on this now!

Uncovering that Davis had been killed by a guard is only part of the focus of the documentary, which is now streaming on HBO Max. Death is increasingly common in Alabama’s prisons. Since 2019, roughly 1,380 incarcerated people have died or been killed while in custody of the state.

Roughly 13 minutes into “The Alabama Solution,” filmmakers Andrew Jarecki and Charlotte Kaufman got a tip about an incarcerated man who had been beaten so badly he was taken to the ICU at an outside hospital.

By the time Jarecki and Kaufman arrived, Steven Davis was dead.

The lead levels in plant-based products were, on average, nine times the amount found in those made with dairy proteins like whey, and twice as great as beef-based ones. Dairy-based protein powders and shakes generally had the lowest amounts of lead.

Plant-based protein powders tested as having the highest levels of lead. It is unclear if this is from the soil or from the manufacturing process. Also, the 1994 deregulation of supplements both created the modern industry and leaves us all at risk.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

“All the deaths that we’ve had since 2015, we’re going back to revisit,” Corrections Commissioner Cain told the reporting team. “There is no statute of limitations, as you know, on homicide.” An investigation by Mississippi reporters revealed at least 43 people died by homicide inside MS prisons

The Mississippi Department of Corrections will review more than two dozen unprosecuted homicides inside its prisons, as well as deaths where causes were ruled as “undetermined,” following an investigation by several news sites, including The Marshall Project - Jackson and Mississippi Today.
