This is an outrage. Walt was a USMC buddy and one of the best. And he absolutely adored his wife Colleen.
Letter from FBI Director Kash Patel firing veteran FBI agent Walter Giardina, whose wife died of cancer last month at age 49. Patel accuses this agent, a Marine combat veteran, of “weaponization.” Many of his FBI colleagues told me he did his job scrupulously and ethically.

On June 19, 1865, freedom finally reached the last enslaved African Americans in Texas as federal troops arrived to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation.

This #Juneteenth, we honor their resilience and reflect on how far we've come—and how far we still must go—in the fight for equality for all.

Highly recommend Nigam's and Singer's "Sustainability in the Air," as it gives the terms and case studies for how we might achieve net-zero by mid-century.

Great read, and the best part is, Vol. 2 comes out this spring.
