Yesterday was my last day at NYT. I’m most grateful for the people: some of the best colleagues and friends, and everyone who trusted me enough to share a part of their story. I just hope some of what we did together helped to make this planet an even marginally better place.

We analyzed, minute by minute, the crucial two-hour period during which a Trump rally to stop the certification of the election results gave way to a mob that nearly came face to face with Congress. Here’s what we found: nyti.ms/2XyySwf

We spent months collecting, synchronizing and mapping thousands of videos of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol to provide the most complete picture to date of what happened — and why. (It's 40 minutes, you may need to pencil this one into your schedule.) nytimes.com/video/us/polit…

Visual evidence and internal communications show that before the strike on World Central Kitchen, multiple aid operations and local staff shelters in Gaza had come under Israeli fire — even after the I.D.F. was notified of the locations and logged them as humanitarian sites.

The @nytimes is giving employees branded lunch boxes this week as a return-to-office perk. We want respect and a fair contract instead — so I’m working from home this week along with 1,300 of my @NYTimesGuild and @NYTGuildTech colleagues, with support from @wirecutterunion.

Four minutes later, at 12:53 p.m., some Trump supporters break through the Capitol’s outer barricade on the northwest side. This moment — 20 minutes before Trump’s speech ends — is captured simultaneously by @ElijahSchaffer, @StatusCoup and @ABQRAW.

Protests across Iran intensified overnight — particularly in the city of Oshnavieh, which a Kurdish official said fell to protesters after security forces retreated. Protesters are seen here seen freely roaming the streets near the Martyr Halabja Square. x.com/nglgrnd/status…
When students at Jamia Millia Islamia organized to protest the Citizenship Amendment Act, the police responded with violence. We break down the footage — which shows officers beating unarmed protesters and firing tear gas inside a university library. nyti.ms/2S5QtKF

“Do what we’re trained to do!” We obtained recordings of internal Metropolitan Police radio traffic from the day of the Capitol attack. Synchronized with footage from the scene, they reveal what officers saw and said in real-time as they came under siege. nyti.ms/2PaPQQo

We didn’t just find evidence of this unit’s presence on Yablunska Street. We caught them in the act. Vehicle markings seen in CCTV, calls made by soldiers from victims’ phones hours after their killings, and more evidence all place the unit at the scene at the time of the crimes.

All officers involved in the killing of George Floyd have now been charged. Three with aiding & abetting murder, the fourth upgraded to murder, 2nd degree. Our investigation takes a closer look at each of those officers' actions and how they turned fatal.
