Right now, the United States stands at an inflection point—not just in politics, but in the way information is curated, controlled, and disseminated. We are living in an era where stories that demand attention, like the Epstein files, are quietly slipping from the headlines.
Meanwhile, the federal government is actively reshaping the stories told in our nation’s museums to fit the President’s preferred vision of history. This is not simply a matter of editorial discretion—it is a battle over memory, meaning, and truth itself.
I’ve said it before, but it’s worth saying again: independent media has never been more vital. I will never apologize for reporting facts, even when those facts make people uncomfortable. My work isn’t about catering to one political camp or provoking the other—it’s about pursuing and sharing the truth, unvarnished and unbought. That mission only works with your support. If you haven’t subscribed yet, I ask you to join me today.
And if you already have, thank you. I know the news I share can be heavy, and at times my updates may feel relentless, but your support makes all the difference. It means the world to know you’re standing with me in this fight for the truth.
I’m 25 years old. I began college at 14, went on to law school, and graduated at 21—one of the youngest in the country to do so. From the beginning, I knew my calling was education: not in the classroom, but in the public square, where democracy itself depends on an informed citizenry. That mission is what led me here—to Substack, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Bluesky, and beyond.
Every day, I work to provide timely, fact-driven news updates to millions of people, especially young people, who are too often ignored or underestimated by traditional outlets.
The job of a free press is not to placate those in power. It is not to curry favor, nor to soften the truth so that it offends no one.
The press exists to hold power to account. When Donald Trump pardons January 6th defendants, the story is not just that pardons were granted. The story must also remind us of what happened that day—the violent attack on our Capitol, the role Trump played in inciting it, and the ongoing legal consequences that followed.
Just as importantly, the press must explain why pardoning those who tried to subvert democracy poses an existential threat to the future of our republic. Reporting the fact alone is not enough. Context matters. Accountability matters. Truth matters.
That is my pledge: I will never normalize Trump, JD Vance, or any other figure whose policies threaten the fabric of democracy.
My work will not be filtered to appease billionaires or political elites. It will be delivered to you with clarity, honesty, and urgency. The beauty of independent media is editorial freedom. Unlike many legacy outlets, my reporting is not funded by billionaires who can dictate what is published and what is buried.
I own my words, my platform, and my voice. That independence matters. It allows me to cover stories others won’t touch, and to do so without fear of losing access, funding, or approval from powerful interests.
It means I can say, without hesitation: you will never see me groveling at Mar-a-Lago, hoping for favor from Donald Trump or anyone else.
Many people ask me: why this work? Why now? The answer is simple. Young voices are missing in today’s media landscape. Legacy outlets have failed to invest in the next generation of journalists, preferring to elevate polished pundits and partisan talking heads. Meanwhile, young Americans are left without representation in the very conversations that will define their futures.
That has to change. My work—whether here on Substack or across social platforms—is a small part of that change. I want to prove that young people are not just consumers of media; we can also be its most fearless producers.
So here is my promise: I will continue to report the truth, without apology, without billionaire oversight, and without partisan distortion. My work will always prioritize facts, context, and accountability.
But independence is not free. That’s why I ask you to support this work—whether by subscribing, sharing, or simply engaging. Every bit helps strengthen an independent voice in a media landscape that increasingly seeks to silence or control dissent.
The stakes are too high for silence, too great for passivity. America is at a crossroads—and truth must not be the casualty of convenience. If you believe in this mission, I ask you: stand with me.
