Huge story. @thehindu's @pv_srividya examines farmers' charges that Tata's iPhone factory is discharging effluents into their farmlands -- and finds worrying details + a coverup. https://t.co/mxQITynhGx

PS: Why is this story only in the Tamil Nadu edition, @thehindu?

Some of the SpaceX investors in the records are easy to identify: the Indian politician Abhishek Singhvi; Betsy DeVos, the former U.S. secretary of education.

But others on the list are shell companies whose ultimate owners remain hidden.

The coach is an awful person too

He was the reason the team selected him to come back on, calling gang rape a “one time mistake”

Disgusting fucking team. Resign.

#WATCH | Nagpur, Mahrashtra: Family of a NEET aspirant, Abdullah Mohammad Talib, claims that he was allocated a school in Abu Dhabi as his exam center for NEET-UG re-exam scheduled to be held on 21st June.

His father, Mohammad Talib, says, "...After the admit card was downloaded at 4 pm yesterday, we found the Centre mentioned to be a school in Abu Dhabi. We were really shocked as we had not given anything as such in our options. We dialled up the helpline number. They told us to send them a mail. When we sent a mail, we received a call that we will be issued a fresh admit card by 4 pm on Saturday. We had given 3 districts as options but we now demand that Nagpur be given us as the Centre because he is shocked. There is no time to go to any other district. He cried a lot yesterday and did not even want to write the exam. But his mother tried to convince him. If he is convinced, he will appear for the exam. He does not even have a passport..."

This is fucking horrific. Pochin telling England to keep winning so blokes don't batter their wives, instead of telling abusers not to abuse.

This is HUGE. After spending over $1 BILLION on the purchase of multiple commercial warehouses that ICE planned to convert into the largest jails/prisons in the nation, ICE is now largely abandoning the idea and will aim to sell off multiple warehouses at a loss.

President Trump vowed to clean up what he called the “filthy” and “disgusting” water in the Reflecting Pool.

But the algae blooms that have long plagued the pool have come roaring back, spawning much debate about the $14 million renovation. https://t.co/hyzsQfwtFS
