Super proud of this one - sometimes in museums we get to do the right thing & correct a historical wrong.

Honoured to have played a part in returning Preben Holger Larsen's remains to Denmark, and I hope sharing our methods helps other museums follow difficult research threads.

Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”

INDEFENSIBLE CRUELTY will be the stain that the Dictator in the WH & the Republican Party co-conspiring/aiding & abetting him will *never* be rid of.

WE will make sure of it.

Again, I ask: who does this remind you of? A madman playing sick hunger games for political/personal gain?

WRONG is WRONG.

A record 29% — nearly a third! — of all new cars purchased in California during July, August, and September were zero-emission vehicles.

DC may be fine with selling out American innovation to China, but California will keep charging ahead toward cleaner air for our communities.

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.
