Buried in the story is the incredible allegation that VP Kamala Harris, whose mother is Brahmin β€” the 'highest' caste in the ladder β€” might have used her influence to help Newsom veto the anti-caste discrimination bill in California.

Wild.

Hi, if you're attending National Freedom of Information Coalition's , I'll be on a panel (next Tuesday, 13.30 ET) discussing how we use public records at the Miami Herald to identify, vet and verify sources/characters for our investigations and what discussions we have about how much info to publish.

Don't like how everyone I grew up watching is announcing their retirement one after the other.

Broad was often annoying af. And one of the greats of the game.

Absolutely wasn't ready for this. Will miss all the theatrics, drama and him running through batting lineups.

Heading to NYC to watch my team play in-person for the first time EVER.

Started in 2004; a decade of absolute dominance followed by another of abject humiliation and I'm still here β€” Manchester United, my one constant love through all these years.

Very excited. Heart is full.

Seven years to the day Paul Campbell took a chance and published my piece in the The Guardian, which in turn finally convinced my dad that me not doing a PhD wasn't the end of the world.
