.@realDonaldTrump keeps equating immigrants with criminals.

Plenty of research shows that’s just wrong.

We have the receipts:

revealnews.org/blog/the-hate-…
A @CatoInstitute analysis found that “criminal conviction and arrest rates for immigrants were well below those of native-born Americans.”
documentcloud.org/documents/4450…
First-generation immigrants are also less likely to commit crime than U.S.-born Americans, @PewResearch found.
pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2013…
And a giant study led by the State University of New York Buffalo found that immigration likely caused crime to drop in most metro areas: nytimes.com/interactive/20…

1/ Remember @Dr_Caffrey, the climate change scientist who fought the @NatlParkService’s efforts to censor her work?

She’s about to be out of a job. revealnews.org/blog/scientist…
2/ Caffrey worked under contract with the National Park Service.

Last year, @ShogrenE reported that the agency had attempted to scrub a landmark report she’d worked on of *all* mentions of manmade climate change. revealnews.org/article/wipeou…
3/ Following our reporting ...

*Democratic members of Congress called for an investigation: revealnews.org/blog/democrats…

*The park service released the report with all the references reinstated: revealnews.org/blog/national-…

1/ NEW: The FBI is dismantling a special unit charged with investigating war crimes and hunting down war criminals living in the U.S.

Human rights advocates are worried scrapping this unit will jeopardize prosecutions. revealnews.org/blog/fbi-is-di…
2/ The unit, which was created a decade ago and has its roots in federal efforts to hunt Nazis living in the United States after World War II, has had a hand in many high-profile prosecutions.
3/ One of these was the Liberian warlord Thomas Woewiju, who agents found living a quiet life in Philadelphia:

1/ Three female janitors in Fresno, CA, have filed a lawsuit against the country's largest janitorial company. They allege supervisors:

*made lewd sexual remarks
*exposed genitals
*displayed pornography
*assaulted and attempted rape.

@KQEDnews: kqed.org/news/11726127/…
2/ The company in question, ABM, was at the center of "Rape on the Night Shift," our 2015 investigation with @KQED, @frontlinepbs, @Univision and @UCBerkeleyIRP. revealnews.org/nightshift/
3/ This is the just the latest complaint against ABM. As recently as Jan. of 2018, the company faced allegations that it was ignoring sexual abuse in the workplace.

That was years after it agreed in legal settlements to change how it handles such cases. revealnews.org/article/nation…

I'm really proud of the work I've been able to do this year and am taking the opportunity to share some of my favorites. Although the bulk of my work focuses on children and adolescents, I'll start with a relevant story about death near the border: revealnews.org/article/lost-o…
I started at @reveal in February. Sources kept pointing me to children and adolescents; @ZivaBranstetter encouraged me to keep a lot of lines in the water and see where they would take me. I wound up uncovering the handbook for how to deport children: revealnews.org/blog/ice-isnt-…
Once the family separation story broke, I was able to exclusively obtain private remarks from ICE's lawyer that admitted that the agency did, indeed, play a part in taking children away (this would be key weeks later when we got the MVM story): revealnews.org/blog/ice-lawye…

1) OK, let's try to keep 'antifa' and their violence in perspective, can we? And I say this as someone who’s been assaulted by Black Bloc activists on various occasions for the sin of being a journalist carrying a camera, mostly while covering alt-right ‘free speech’ events.
2) I can't say I am even remotely a fan of the antifascists' _tactics_. I also happen to believe that giving the fascists violence is what they want, and that any violence at all should be purely defensive. I believe mockery is infinitely more effective and more persuasive.
