Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a decision to talk about their experience. We “discovered that in a room of 100 women, 10 to 20 of them will have suffered from miscarriage,” Meghan writes. nyti.ms/2Hzpd4h
“This year has brought so many of us to our breaking points,” Meghan Markle writes. So, this Thanksgiving, “let us commit to asking others, ‘Are you OK?’” nyti.ms/2Hzpd4h
“For the first time, in a long time, as human beings, we are really seeing one another,” Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex writes. “Are we OK? We will be.” Click the link to read the rest of Meghan Markle’s Op-Ed: nyti.ms/2Hzpd4h

What have we lost? What is at stake?

In a special section ahead of next week’s election, all 15 of our columnists write about President Trump and what has happened to America in the past four years. nyti.ms/34DPxmm
“Trump has been a corrosive acid on America’s social capital,” writes @NickKristof. “He has cost us trust. He has dissolved our connectivity.” nyti.ms/3jIhyh4
How has Trump caused a loss of faith? He “snuffed out my confidence, flickering but real, that we could go only so low and forgive only so much. With him we went lower — or at least a damningly large percentage of us did,” writes @FrankBruni. nyti.ms/3eb9cxg

Donald Trump "has lied, again and again, about the severity of threats the country is now facing — be they from climate change or the pandemic — even as reams of evidence make those threats plain," writes Jeneen Interlandi nyti.ms/2IAyAkd
Donald Trump is "a president who muzzles credible scientists and amplifies charlatans. One who suggested on live television that UV light and bleach injections might cure people of the coronavirus." nyti.ms/2IAyAkd

Donald Trump “stands without any real rivals as the worst American president in modern history,” writes the editorial board. Today, we are publishing a special section to remind readers why President Trump is unfit to lead the nation. nyti.ms/37dIhiS
“From his first days in office, President Trump has waged a relentless and cynical campaign against the institutions most responsible for turning science into sound policy,” @JInterlandi writes nyti.ms/31eMwXI
Corruption and self-dealing have “come to define this president, his family and much of his administration,” writes @mcottle. “Mr. Trump will be remembered for assembling a world-class Team of Grifters.” nyti.ms/3nYDcRy
