NEW: Two homeschooled teenagers in the Chicago suburbs spend their mornings tracking ICE vehicles and documenting raids.
They let me follow them for this story.

NYCâs sky-high rents are pushing working-class people to find increasingly creative ways to stay in the city.
For my latest documentary, I drove across the five boroughs to meet New Yorkers making homes out of RVs.

Food with maggots. A mysterious flu. Forced labor.
Those are some of the conditions detainees describe inside Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center in Newark, NJ.
My latest dispatch, from the chaotic protests outside the facility. #DelaneyHall #ICE youtube.com/watch?v=CbnNDa0TâŚ

Fantastic well-rounded reporting on the #peptide boom from @DanMing đ youtube.com/watch?v=_QroTFAsâŚ
If you're in the traditional medical system like me, peptides have become a new buzzword that seems to have gotten ahead of the #science and #medicine
This 12-minute video is a worthwhile watch for:
đ What/How of peptides
đ Why peptides and why the boom, #health #body đ°
đ My concerns đŠ
âď¸My bottom line: I don't know judge people taking peptides because it's a person's individual risk/benefit decision--we just don't know what the short-term (drug-drug interactions, synergies?) or long-term (autoimmune, cancer, disease prevention?) effects are
THREAD: For my latest doc, I set out to report on the growing popularity of unapproved, gray market peptides.
What I stumbled upon instead was a new gold rush.
Looksmaxxers making six figures a month.
Fitness influencers working as affiliate marketers, pushing âresearch chemicalsâ labeled NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION.
Gurus selling programs that teach people how to become peptide entrepreneurs.
The 12-minute doc is now live. Join me on a journey into the gray market peptide boom: youtube.com/watch?v=_QroTFAsâŚ
American journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, my friend and former colleague, has been unjustly detained for over 6 weeks in Kuwait. The Kuwaiti government must release him immediately. Journalism is NOT a crime.

NEW: Native Americans in Minneapolisâwhose ancestors predate the U.S. itselfâare being detained in immigration raids.
I reported on how Indigenous residents are organizing to protect their immigrant neighbors.

On January 13th, my colleague Dallin Mello and I filmed a man interacting with federal agents in Minneapolis.
It appears the man we filmed was Alex Pretti.

The Trump administration is removing thousands of service members from the U.S. military â all because they're transgender. I spent time with trans soldiers bracing for the coming purge.

The Pentagon just called off a briefing for Musk about its plans for a potential war with China, per NYT.
I recently traveled to Hawaii, Okinawa and Guam to report on these very plansâand the communities who would be on the frontlines of such a war. youtu.be/UnM3YEwT4M8

NEW: The memo sent to government employees this evening offering them buyouts very closely mirrors an email Musk sent to Twitter employees in 2022 â down to the same subject line "A Fork in the Road."
Flew around the Kelowna wildfire today. Our plane circled nearby Penticton for an hour before attempting, and aborting, a landing. #kelownafires

It has been almost 3 months since most of our post-petition colleaguesâpeople who were officially let go after VICE declared bankruptcy on May 15âstopped getting paychecks.
Many haven't received a single dollar in the severance they are owed. Here are some of their experiences.
