    The journey from Tokyo to Hong Kong normally takes me about five hours. It’s now been 19 hours since I left Narita airport and I’m still not home, as I await my COVID-19 test result. This is what international travel is like during the coronavirus pandemic. (Thread)

    I worked in TX for 7 years, reporting from where @Acosta is standing many times from 2004-2011. Drugs & illegal immigration was my beat. Border apprehensions hit nearly 1.2M in 2005 & have fallen dramatically since. 400K last year. When fence was built, cartels dug tunnels.
    CNN’s Jim @Acosta is along the border in McAllen, Texas, where President Trump spoke earlier. “Earlier today he declared the nation is under attack on the border…but that’s not the only misleading thing the President has said today while he’s been in pursuit of his border wall"

    We’re all impacted by coronavirus. Fear. Anxiety. Paranoia. It’s everywhere. I’m fighting these toxic feelings by doing at least one thing everyday that brings me joy. Today, it’s dancing in my room 😅(Bollywood style, thanks #Muqabla). What gives you joy? Show me! #JoyFightsFear

    North Korean defector solider is 24, was shot up to 5x, last name “Oh.” He’d lost half his blood & had “dozens” of intestinal parasites — now in “great” condition, doctor says. Oh’s been listening to K-pop, watching Hollywood & South Korean movies. His favorite show? “C.S.I.”
