About this publication

This newsletter publishes reported, document-based writing on power, corruption, and elite impunity—told in a narrative, investigative style.

The work draws on court records, contemporaneous reporting, public filings, and on-the-record sources. Where facts are uncertain or contested, that uncertainty is made explicit.

What I publish

Subscribers receive:

  • Investigative essays built from primary documents

  • Narrative reconstructions of real events

  • Source-linked analysis and timelines

  • Updates and corrections as new information emerges

Some pieces are stand-alone. Others are part of a larger, long-term reporting project.

Why this exists

Much of what matters most sits in plain sight—buried in transcripts, filings, footnotes, and forgotten reporting. This publication is an attempt to surface that record, connect it coherently, and write it clearly.
