washington posts's big story about how the Trump administration is supposedly cracking down on passports of hispanic people who were born with midwives in a certain area turned out to be, unsurprisingly, fake news
as it turns out, not only had the government been denying passports to these people with fraudulent birth certificates for years during the Obama administration after a lawsuit on the subject, but the number of denied passports both as an absolute and % figure had been dropping significantly under Trump, from from a peak of 1,465 in 2015 to 971 last year. And when WaPo doubled down on their claim by citing a case under Trump of a passport denial hundreds of miles from the border, they failed to realize that the Obama administration had also denied multiple passports hundreds of miles from the border for the same reason too.

And then it turns out WaPo didn't even reach out to the people whos case they were using;

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Air Force estimated start up costs for a proposed U.S. Space Force, a new military service backed by President Donald Trump, will be around $13 billion in the first five years, according to a Department of Defense memo seen by Reuters.

The Air Force, the U.S. military branch that takes responsibility for space, authored the Sept. 14 memo outlining a proposal for “a lethality focused organization that will field space superiority capabilities.”

The Trump administration in August announced an ambitious plan to usher in the force as the sixth branch of the military by 2020. It would require Congressional approval.

The Pentagon memo was written by Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson, a former Member of Congress from New Mexico.

The memo estimated that creating a Space Force will cost in excess of $3 billion in the first 12 months with an additional $10 billion needed over the following four years. The U.S. Air Force estimated that there could be more than 13,000 people in the new “Department of the Space Force.”
