It is rare I applaud anything King Charles does, but this is such a case
Following revelations about Jeffrey Epstein, King Charles III is stripping his brother Prince Andrew of his remaining titles and evicting him from his royal residence and into "private accommodation." www.npr.org/2025/10/30/g...

I could not be prouder that my law firm is currently litigating 60 voting, election and redistricting cases in 30 states. Even as large law firms bow down, we continue to fight for democracy every single day.

Excited to be in Manchester for the final QED conference. It is in my opinion the best science and skepticism conference and I am sad to see it stop. I am, however happy that I made it to this one.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Yesterday was the Q3 FEC deadline. That means we found out how much money my opponents raised and who donated to them.

The president (or maybe not president) of Madagascar—a radio DJ who overthrew the island’s yogurt kingpin in a coup d’état—just fled the country in a French helicopter after Gen Z protests. I wrote about the most interesting island you know nothing about, with bonus pictures of me with lemurs:
The yogurt kingpin, the radio DJ coup, and the most interesting island on Earth
Madagascar is a fascinating island home to 30+ million people. It's also home to bizarre, volatile politics that virtually nobody knows about. And the president just escaped on a helicopter.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).
But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that
