    Mexico’s Supreme Court decriminalized abortion in Sept. "We are all in favor of life," said Chief Justice Zaldívar. "The only thing is that some of us are in favor of the life of women being one in which their dignity is respected, in which they can fully exercise their rights."

    The Mexican government misled the public about the coronavirus outbreak in Mexico City. Its own data should have triggered a lockdown of the capital in early December. Instead, the govt kept the city open for two busy shopping weeks Our investigation:

    THREAD: Last month, a metro that was less than ten years old crashed in Mexico City, killing 26 people. Why? Our investigation found serious, basic flaws in the construction of the metro — which likely led directly to the accident:

    I spent a few days in Uvalde. One thing that became clear: this is not Newtown or Parkland. Guns are part of the identity of this town. Almost everyone I talked to owned one, for hunting or protection. But even here, people are begging for change.
