Growing up, I attended Sunday school every week. My teachers were Bill Watterson, Gary Trudeau, Berkeley Breathed, Charles M. Schulz, and Gary Larson. The best part was being able to show up in my pajamas and eat pancakes during class.

I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset.
I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states.

Young Kim is rep for California's 40th congressional district. She is on record that she would not vote for a bill that cuts medicaid. She just voted for a bill that will cut medicaid $700 billion over the next 10 years. She won last year with 55% of the vote. Vote her out in 2026.

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.
I hope you’ll read and share the piece.

What DEI threatens isn’t merit. It’s monopoly.
Political science professor Hakeem Jefferson argues for DEI's importance to de-monopolizing universities.
