I want to take a moment to thank Drew for taking an interest in my work and putting together such an excellent profile.
Most of what I do focuses on highlighting prominent figures and their statements, so being the subject of a profile is a new experience—and a meaningful one.

It is time for Trump to put up or shut up in Court.
A FEDERAL JUDGE said “no evidence before the court connects Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or any criminal organization.” No one is vouching for one man. We are standing up for EVERYONE’s right to due process under the Constitution.

Trump can post all he wants, but a federal judge said there's “no evidence linking Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or to any terrorist activity.”

Science doesn’t improve by cutting Black, Hispanic, and women experts. But that’s exactly what happened—38 out of 43 removed from NIH boards were just that. And they wonder why trust in institutions is fading.
