The lead prosecutor in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, Maurene Comey, was fired 8 days before her interview with Deputy AG Todd Blanche on July 24-25, 2025.
There was no official announcement or explanation.

If you open the anti-trans HHS report’s appendix in NotePad, you’ll see that it was compiled by Alex Byrne.

The appendix is a rigorous, scientific overview of systematic reviews.

Alex Byrne is an MIT philosophy professor with no apparent background in science, let alone expertise in it.

My latest piece, written for the Kettering Foundation.

I urge organizations, nonprofits, and companies to end the cycle of over compliance with Trump threats, and show how doing so ushers in fascism.

Some lessons from what we have seen in the trans community.

There is a severe problem happening in the bee world:

Bees are dying & this year 2025 80% of the Bee population has died.

This is catastrophic for the planet.

So I am asking my sweetest friends with money & pull: lets get Honey Tree Healing Farm going to repopulate bees, trees & feed the world.

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was demolished by Musk’s team shortly after midnight. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 billion.
