🇨🇫🇷🇺🚨| A Telegram channel affiliated to the #Wagner group published this photo (showing an IL-76 , thanks @gerjon_) claiming that new mercenaries had recently arrived in the Central African Republic to provide local security.
The information follows rumors of the transfer of 500 to 600 mercenaries to Moscow.
The information was later denied by Wagner sources, who claimed that the group was being deployed across the country to secure the local elections, due to take place on July 30.

8 victims of a pedophile IHS doctor have reached an agreement with the government for around $14.5 million. The settlement comes 3 years after @WSJ @frontlinepbs documentary on how Dr. Stanley Weber abused Native American boys for decades. w/@cdweaver: wsj.com/articles/u-s-reaches…

A truck pulling an Amazon Prime trailer smashed into the back of Kazara Leacock's Camry on the New Jersey Turnpike, killing her 1-year-old son. The driver had a long list of moving violations. on.wsj.com/3BA2Q6z

If you're considering a journalism master's degree, @WSJ's tool shows the debt load is low. Good on Mizzou! Not boosterish. I went to Columbia J-school. (Fixes link to deleted prior tweet.)

NEW @AP investigation: Since the 2010's at least 1,900 U.S. military firearms were lost or stolen, with some resurfacing in violent crimes. One weapon was used in four shootings in Albany, NY. The Army didn't even know it was missing. bit.ly/3zC6lIb

A @WSJ investigation in 2020 on fatal missteps at U.S. nursing homes included an article showing how N.J.'s Menlo Park veterans home became one of the deadliest places for Covid. Managers at that same facility took illicit hazard payments, @cdweaver found. wsj.com/articles/new-jersey-…
Christopher Weaver retweeted
While their NJ veterans home bosses got thousands of dollars in Covid hazard bonuses, maintenance workers filed complaints claiming that they were denied payments under the program. One who did get a bonus took home $21. wsj.com/articles/new-jersey-… via @WSJ @cdweaver

Thrilled that @MargieMasonAP and @robinmcdowell along with several @AP colleagues have won the Worth Bingham Prize for Investigative Journalism. This is one of the top awards for investigative journalism in the industry. Couldn't be happier for these two great reporters!

Today on #TheJournal: An investigation by @cdweaver and @rebeccaballhaus into why the U.S. still doesn't have enough coronavirus tests. open.spotify.com/episode/6a7…

This WSJ piece by @rebeccaballhaus @cdweaver on the testing fiasco is well worth your time, including excellent reporting on that Abbott Labs box Trump touted at his recent presser, and what happened next that could be ripped from a Veep script wsj.com/articles/coronavirus… via @WSJ

Think about this for a sec: Some insurers are waiving out-of-pocket costs for patients with COVID-19.
What are we doing for the nearly one in three patients who could be getting a false-negative test result? They’re likely getting many of the same costly treatments.
Latest coronavirus test challenge: do they even work? Doctors and patients are grappling with negative results for patients who pretty clearly have the disease. wsj.com/articles/questions-a…

U.S. public-health officials worried this might be The Big One. The testing program they rolled out was a small one. A @WSJ investigation by @cdweaver @betswrites and colleagues shows how the government's testing efforts failed Americans. wsj.com/articles/how-washing…

Senators demand that Secretary Alex Azar force the Indian Health Service to release its full report on a pedophile doctor who abused Native American boys within 7 days. Person who viewed report tells @WSJ it is "damning" for IHS. New from @cdweaver and me: wsj.com/articles/lawmakers-u…
Christopher Weaver retweeted
Why not just redact any private medical info+names on this $618K report about Dr. Weber who was convicted of sexually abusing Native American boys in Pine Ridge, SD+Browning, MT and is suspected of abusing dozens more. I will be FOIAing this too to encourage them to release it.
Victims of this pedophile doctor hoped for a public reckoning when the Indian Health Service promised to get the facts. Now, they see just another cover up. wsj.com/articles/indian-heal…
Christopher Weaver retweeted
it's great that the WSJ has stayed on top of this story, and I look forward to reading the results of their inevitable FOIA lawsuit
The Indian Health Service claims a report detailing how it covered up decades of abuse by a pedophile doctor is a "medical quality assurance record" that is legally confidential! wsj.com/articles/indian-heal…

Dogged investigative journalism by @cdweaver and @djfroschWSJ over the last couple years is one of main reasons my clients -- victims of abuse in #indianhealthservices -- felt the courage come forward. They learned they were not alone and people might care about their stories.
More Montana men accuse the U.S. government from failing to protect them from a sex-abusing pediatrician at the Indian Health Service. First civil suit in this case: wsj.com/articles/indian-heal…
