If you're a new @BostonGlobe subscriber, I highly recommend today's Spotlight report examining what happens when for-profit chains buy up nursing homes. In one case, a chain called RegalCare let basic supplies run short and drove out longtime employees as it slashed spending.

RegalCare cut staff hours by nearly half at one facility. Its quality rating went from 5 stars to 1 in just three years.

Outside chains like RegalCare transformed Mass. nursing homes. Quality fell.

RegalCare and other nursing home chains have rapidly expanded in Massachusetts. The Globe Spotlight Team found widespread problems and little state intervention.

I've been doing this work a long time but nothing prepared me for what I saw on a recent reporting trip in Somalia. I was there to look into rising food and fuel prices from the war in the Middle East landing atop dramatic cuts to the international humanitarian relief system.

ABC News has now taken all FiveThirtyEight articles completely offline. They now redirect to abcnews dot com/politics. A needless erasure of thousands of pages of knowledge.

New: McClatchy journalists at newspapers in 4 states are now withholding their bylines from A.I.-generated content as tensions grow over a "content scaling agent" tool that the company rolled out nytimes.com/2026/05/01/busin…

Reporters at McClatchy Withhold Bylines in Dispute Over A.I. Content

Journalists at newspapers like The Miami Herald and The Sacramento Bee are refusing to let the chain use their names on summarized articles generated by a new A.I. tool.

New this morning: The frequency and tenor of threatening calls to members of Congress is rising. Chilling voicemails obtained by @TalKopan and @JimPuzzanghera show callers threatening violence against members, staff, and families, and spewing racism and misogyny at staff.

We absolutely need to know if this was an American strike. It's looking increasingly like it was, and if so it will be one of the worst individual incidents of civilian deaths in a generation or more.
