Some morning reflections on the Trump administration's move to strip Harvey Milk's name from a Navy vessel. 1/4: Some might argue Milk was more of a warrior than the very defense officials stripping his name from a Navy vessel.

RFK Jr. said multiple times during his house and senate hearings today that no scientists have been fired from federal agencies. Our reporting has shown that hundreds, if not thousands, of scientists have been let go from NIH/CDC/FDA

Had a great time on @thedailyshow.com talking about my new book, The Volunteer, with @michaelkosta.bsky.social Clip here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8gY...

Saw this journalist/author on The Daily Show. I’ve been fed up with the sanitizing of executions for as long as I can remember. In fact, I think all voters should have to witness them. But I *didn’t* realize how few death sentences result in actual executions. (15% !) #NotInMyName

Why are we still threatening to people as punishment, when its rarely carried out? Only 15% of the 2,000 people on death row in state systems are actually executed - @giannatoboni.bsky.social on @thedailyshow.com
