NEW: Sam Altman's iris-scanning startup has raised hundreds of millions of dollars on a futuristic premise: proving someone is human in the age of AI. Its goals are ambitious — a billion users across the world. So far, it's less than 2% of the way there. www.businessinsider.com/sam-altman-o...

Great story, showing yet again that many of the stars of the "news" business are, in fact, bullshitters. www.businessinsider.com/daniella-pie...

The Supreme Court last week expanded prisoners' access to jury trials, for cases related to the Prison Litigation Reform Act under the Seventh Amendment. Re-upping the story from @hannahbeckler.bsky.social and I about the stakes of the case: www.businessinsider.com/supreme-cour...

I'm honored to be named a a Livingston finalist with @hannahbeckler.bsky.social for our series exposing how the Eighth Amendment has been gutted for this nation's prisoners. These were tough stories to report, and I'm grateful to be recognized alongside such a stellar group of journalists.

"I don't know if I'd trust getting on a plane." We spoke to over a dozen current and former employees at @noaa.gov. They expressed concern over less accurate forecasts and aviation issues, among other things, amid steep cuts. www.businessinsider.com/doge-noaa-cu...

I wrote about little DOGEs everywhere — from the GOAT committee in Wisconsin, to FLOGE in Florida. www.businessinsider.com/state-doge-i...

I'm thrilled to see that our reporting on "The Gutting of the Eighth Amendment" is a finalist for @americanbar.org's Silver Gavel Award. This kind of reporting is difficult, and it means a lot to see the work recognized — especially among such impressive company. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

The Supreme Court is set to hear a case tomorrow, related to the 1996 Prison Litigation Reform Act, that could expand prisoners' access to jury trials. @hannahbeckler.bsky.social and I wrote about the case here: www.businessinsider.com/supreme-cour...

We got a list of workers at the White House’s DOGE office, including some new names previously unreported. Among them, a McKinsey alum and a lawyer who clerked for Clarence Thomas www.businessinsider.com/doge-staff-l...

Federal workers: is there something happening internally at your agency that you feel the press hasn't covered, or that needs more scrutiny and attention? I'd love to chat with you. You can reach me on the encrypted messaging app Signal at neinbinder.70. Happy to talk off the record at this time.

The gutting of the Eighth Amendment When less than 1% of cases prevail, does a prisoner's right to be free of 'cruel and unusual punishments' still exist? Lipman grantee Nicole Einbinder's latest on the erosion of Eighth Amendment rights. www.businessinsider.com/eighth-amend...

Finally created a Bluesky account, and my first post is about our @businessinsider.com project over two years in the making exposing how the Eighth Amendment has been essentially gutted for this nation's 1.2 million prisoners. www.businessinsider.com/eighth-amend...

This week at @businessinsider.com we launched a deep dive into the 8th Amendment, our nation's foundational protection against "cruel and unusual punishments." In analyzing nearly 1,500 cases, we found prisoners win less than 1% of the time. www.businessinsider.com/eighth-amend...

A true honor, and a fun event
