That story about how Kash Patel is using SWAT teams to do his security and take care of his girlfriend made me think about how one of the roles of Pinochet’s security detail was to protect the dictator from flying fruit.

New frontier of academic freedom just dropped 🫠
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.
