NEW: We recently heard that the Trump administration was leaning on the government of Gambia to help Elon Musk. For weeks, we made phone calls, wrote letters and knocked on folks’ doors to try to confirm it. But we were stuck.

So @js_kaplan and I got on a plane to Banjul. 1/

Let me tell you a story – one of the more haunting I’ve seen in 20 years of journalism. It’s about greed, death and denial. It took two years to unravel one doctor’s myth, a hospital’s complicity in creating it, and a documented trail of suspicious deaths… 🧵

Unbelievable to me that @marshallallen has passed. A great reporter and human being, I'll never forget a trip we took together to Prague to teach a journalism workshop for Czech students. He was earnest, organized and ebullient about his craft. I'll miss him.

.@MichaelGrabell has penned a beautiful tribute to him here: https://t.co/Pnczy2alPX

Must-read story. Judges have turned to this company to care for hundreds of vulnerable NYers. Instead, the company drained its charges bank accounts while leaving them in squalor.

In Sept @Biancafortis & @LJBeil revealed how Columbia had ignored *decades* of warnings about OB-GYN Robert Hadden

Today, Columbia announced big changes:
$100 mil settlement fund
independent investigation
and it'll finally notify former patients

@add @CalMatters Congrats Andy!

🚨NEW🚨

The deepest investigation yet into LEONARD LEO, the man who helped build the Supreme Ct's supermajority and led the charge to reverse Roe v. Wade.

We've got tons of new info.

Including a mtg Leo arranged w/ GOP donors and Thomas ... at the Court https://t.co/BLphuqYQgs

@tlupick @tmjennings @frontlinepbs thanks so much.

[Patricia Callahan @SheInvestigates]

NEW: Clarence Thomas secretly participated in Koch donor events, putting him in the extraordinary position of having helped a political network that has brought multiple cases before the Supreme Court. @propublica https://t.co/38pPuS4QLG

[Ken Armstrong @bykenarmstrong]

"Dear Valued Patient,

"We regret to inform you that Dr. Robert Hadden has closed his private practice at Columbia..."

So begins a letter, from Columbia, which fails to say much else.

Like *why* his practice was closed.

Looking forward to joining @chrislhayes momentarily to discuss my story on how a Navy shipbuilding program cost taxpayers billions, but failed to deliver: https://t.co/KTlf0f1gj9

[Joaquin Sapien @jbsapien]

Here is our story of how top Navy leaders dismissed or ignored warnings about flaws in a major shipbuilding program, advocating for the ships even as they broke down around the globe and their weapons systems failed. https://t.co/KTlf0f1gj9

Another total blockbuster from @JustinElliott @js_kaplan and @Amierjeski: Billionaire Harlan Crow Bought Property From Clarence Thomas. The Justice Didn’t Disclose the Deal. https://t.co/dqQKHF7W5I

[Joaquin Sapien @jbsapien]

Swift, well-deserved impact from the jaw-dropping @js_kaplan @JustinElliott and @Amierjeski report: Lawmakers Call for Investigation and Ethics Reforms in Response to ProPublica Report on Clarence Thomas https://t.co/QY7M8azmwv

[Josh Kaplan @js_kaplan]

NEW: For over 20 years, Clarence Thomas has secretly accepted luxury travel from a TX billionaire.

This is him, his wife and the billionaire in Indonesia. Thomas flew there on the tycoon's private jet and spent days island-hopping on his superyacht. https://t.co/GZdupltqYa
