NEW—Khalil’s wife, Noor: “This felt like a kidnapping because it was: Officers in plainclothes — who refused to show us a warrant, speak with our attorney, or even tell us their names — forced my husband into an unmarked car and took him” Didn’t know where he was for 38 hours

SCOOP—Emails obtained by @zeteo_news show Mahmoud Khalil reached out for help from the Columbia administration *one day before* ICE detained him. He said he couldn't sleep from threats he was receiving. He even wrote he feared ICE "might come to my home." https://t.co/3rsGPahSMb

400+ years after the "First Thanksgiving" most Americans have no idea that the Wampanoag people are still here. My tribe, the Aquinnah Wampanoag, is on Martha's Vineyard and we're still fighting for our land and rights. We’re also doing cool stuff. 🧵👇to learn more & support

Latest in @972mag: People are besieged with no food, water, or shelter. The scale of devastation in northern Gaza—Jabalia, Beit Lahiya—is unimaginable. I spoke w/ survivors describing a harrowing time with nowhere to escape. More in my detailed report:

In my latest for @NYMag, I interviewed people across Lebanon to hear what life has been like since Israel launched its attack. From Beirut to Bint Jbeil, from Nabatieh to the Beqaa, residents told me how war has reshaped the country - and their lives: https://t.co/94dyGgr2IB
