"We Are Bombarding America's Forests with Roundup": Despite Cancer Fear, Trump Admin Pushes Herbicide
The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments Monday in a case that could determine whether thousands of cancer patients can keep suing the manufacturers of the popular weed killer glyphosate, known as Roundup. Critics of Roundup have long alleged a link between the herbicide and cancer. It was developed by Monsanto, which was bought by Bayer in 2018.

Mother Jones and the Center for Investigative Reporting recently released a major investigation by Nate Halverson that looks at how the U.S. Forest Service has been rapidly expanding its use of Roundup despite concerns about its safety. "The majority of glyphosate is still used in agriculture, but … we were able to show that the fastest-growing use is actually now for forestry," says Halverson.

Trump vs. Dreamers: Justice Dept. Moves to Make It Easier to Deport 500K DACA Recipients
The Trump administration is continuing its attacks on DACA, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, that has given deportation relief and work permits to immigrants who came to the United States as children. The Board of Immigration Appeals — an administrative court within the Justice Department — recently ruled that DACA status is not enough to spare someone from deportation, a decision that sets a precedent potentially putting hundreds of thousands of people at risk.

Democratic Congressmember Delia Ramirez from Illinois, whose husband is a former DACA recipient, calls the BIA decision "very concerning" and part of a larger effort "weaponizing the court system" against immigrants. She says Congress must act and pass legislation to end the legal limbo of DACA recipients and millions of other immigrants.

Death by Firing Squad: Sister Helen Prejean on Trump's Moves to Ramp Up Executions
The Justice Department is bringing back the use of firing squads and lethal injection using pentobarbital as it seeks to expedite and expand federal death penalty convictions and executions. No federal executions have been carried out since 2020, when the first Trump administration broke with over a decade of precedent and executed 13 people on death row. The second Trump administration is now pursuing the death penalty in dozens more cases across the country. Renowned anti-death penalty activist Sister Helen Prejean says Trump's push to restart federal executions is entirely unsurprising. "His first instinct almost always seems to be demonize someone as an enemy and then kill them and destroy them."
