- EPA drops case against Geo Group after donations to Trump — The Trump administration's Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) dropped a case against Geo Group, a private prison operator, which faced up to $4 million in fines for using a toxic disinfectant at an immigration facility. This decision followed Geo Group's significant donations to Trump and Republican leadership. The EPA's move is considered unusual and has raised concerns about political intervention, as Geo Group is a major player in the administration's immigration policies. The case involved allegations of health risks to employees and detainees due to the use of the disinfectant.
