While we're on the topic of Iowa, in 2011 a man was found in a Monsanto cornfield there. A massive FBI investigation ensued. I spent 4 years reconstructing it, crafting a geopolitical thriller about the US & China. THE SCIENTIST AND THE SPY releases today! https://t.co/JuWs78uVad

Ok this is fun. Protesters are doing a kind of relay where they’re passing objects along the human chain to different areas of Hong Kong. Each object says where it’s from and where it wants to go. Photos from various Telegram groups.

Why anyone would doubt Indrani Mukherjea's statements implicating Chidambaram? Has she ever been known to lie? In this fascinating piece,
@soniafaleiro recounts how Mukherjea passed her daughter off as as her sister -- and then murdered her. https://t.co/LgmaGwGdIo
