All writing ↗As the blog grows, you’ll find the latest pieces here.
Evidence first. No party gets a pass.
Start with the headline. Check the records. Ask what is missing and who benefits. We examine privacy, technology, concentrated power and the justice system without treating suspicion as proof or balance as equal blame.
Plain language. Relevant counterevidence. Practical options and their tradeoffs. Read the sources and make up your own mind.
