Neha Bora speaks about today’s protest and her detention after being released. “We are not dogs, insects or vermin. We are citizens of this country, not people who can simply be stuffed into vehicles and taken away,” she said.

In March, I landed at Navi Mumbai Airport on a Saturday with no peak-hour rush on transit or traffic. And travelling to my parents house 28 km in suburbs just took me a seamless journey of 1 hour 45 minutes, as cabs refused to take trips via apps and wanted 2x the price.

So I don’t know why international airlines are complaining to shift, all their passenger carrying 23kg checkin bags will have wheels which they can drag between seamless 600-700m transit interchange and crowded suburban trains.

Is JD Vance going to let this slander against the men experiencing beardedness community stand?

If the SIR will eventually work as database for an NCR, then what place do Muslims have in this process? Two stories from Uttarakhand are worth looking at.

1) Five BJP-linked men filed 6,500 objections seeking the deletion of voters. Every voter targeted was Muslim.

2) BJP BLAs were named as applicants seeking the deletion of Muslim voters in Haridwar. The same BLAs later submitted affidavits saying they had never filed these forms. So who did? EC says not their job to investigate, police should.

For more than two months, I have been working on a truly horrific story about one of the gravest war crimes committed by the United States since Vietnam: The bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran. It was one of the first targets struck in the opening hours of the war on February 28, 2026.

At least 156 people were killed in the U.S. cruise missile strikes—120 of them were children and 26 were teachers. We spoke to survivors, first responders, parents, doctors, teachers, psychologists, and other witnesses. Some of them had never before shared their experiences of that day.

It would be impossible to do justice to what happened in Minab that day with words alone. In more than 25 years in journalism and reporting on war, I do not believe I have reported on a more heinous single crime.

Former special counsel Jack Smith was pressed by Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) on Tuesday during his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee about whether he attended a NBA game between the Atlanta Hawks and Golden State Warriors in Atlanta in early February 2024.

Smith said he “definitely did not go" to an Atlanta Hawks game. "I think you've already perjured yourself," Schitt said during the exchange, calling Smith a "total dirtbag."

Smith said he instead attended a Maryland-Iowa women’s basketball game to see Iowa star Caitlin Clark play. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) suggested Schmitt had confused the Iowa Hawkeyes with the Atlanta Hawks and said Smith deserved an apology.

What a disgraced and cowardly move by @p_sahibsingh.

Hiding safely behind police security to assault a young kid who was making his video , then speeding off in his car before anyone could react.

Boy was making video of him getting exposed for sub-standard roads by Delhi Govt.

Take away the police security guards, and let's see how tough you really are.

Let’s have your bout with this young boy without ur police & security.

In an interview with GQ about his political activism, actor Adam Brody goes on the record about his stance on Palestine:

"Put me down as thinking it's a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine. It's awful that it's taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it's reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago."

It's important to learn math not because you may need to do long division as an adult, but because it promotes rigorous thinking. IMO, history and causal inference are among the most important subjects a young person can study — math being central to the second.

A significant problem in public discourse right now is people's inability to critically evaluate causal claims (e.g., vaccines cause autism, deporting immigrants will solve the housing crisis, etc.). The less able people are to critically evaluate causal claims, the worse our democracy functions because people can be preyed upon for votes. You should promote anything that improves rigorous thinking, even if it doesn't have market value. In fact, we should stop thinking of education only in the context of what improves the economy.

IMO, this is distinct from knowing your own address (which Huang can avoid because he's wealthy). Memorizing facts like this may or may not be important, but it's distinct from rigorous thinking.

Always a good time to recall that when SIR was taken to court, the SC first allowed it to become fait accompli by delaying hearings, and then sanctified it.
