Mike Rinder was an essential source for “Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood , and the Prison of Belief”. But more than that, he was a voice of liberation for so many people who managed to escape the clutches of the organization. He was a brave man. washingtonpost.com/obituaries/202…

I was booked on The Beat with Ari Melber yesterday--along with former NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio. He's 6'5" so they kindly gave me a cushion. Oh what we authors endure. Hope you'll pick up a copy of "The Human Scale" to make it worthwhile.

Omar al-Bayoumi is the missing puzzle piece to fill out the picture of official Saudi involvement in the 9/11 plot. But the chances of getting him to an American courtroom are slim. My thoughts on "The World." theworld.org/segments/2025/…

In Feb 2023 I was in Hebron gathering material for my novel THE HUMAN SCALE. This Israeli soldier assaulted Issa Amro, who was showing me the Old City. Now the book is out and I hope readers will understand what's really going on.

This video of the cuffing of Sen. Alex Padilla is creepy. Even after the cuffing, when the unidentified federal agent keeps telling the cameraman over and over "there's no recording allowed." Ie: we have cancelled the first amendment. nbcnews.com/video/sen-alex…
