I was there when the crowd went wild when the three Gámez-Cuéllar brothers and their father took the stage. Two months ago, the musicians were being held in federal immigration detention centers. Now, they were opening for @KaceyMusgraves nytimes.com/2026/05/03/us/… via @nytimes

The day before I boarded a plane from NYC, my youngest sister sent me a text message that froze me in place. “Brother, it looks like all of the Sandovales have Covid,” it read in Spanish. ⁦@nytimes⁩ #pandemic #border #riograndevalley #TexasCOVID

Last September the @GovRonDeSantis gov flew 49 migrants from San Antonio to Martha’s Vineyard. Many said they remain scarred by the experience. Earlier this month I spent time with the few who have forged a new life “en la isla.” Please take a read.

When Ms. Cauro fled Venezuela last summer, she never imagined that one day she would be working and living on a wealthy island south of Cape Cod, surrounded by boats and mansions of the kind she had seen only in the movies. @nytimes nytimes.com/2023/06/28/us/…
