I'm Furious This Evening

I’m writing this tonight with fury in my chest and a fire in my gut. Once again, MAGA Republicans have decided that their answer to criticism, truth, and accountability is to try and criminalize their opponents. This time, they’ve set their sights on me.

Let’s be crystal clear: I’m being targeted because I refuse to stay quiet. I refuse to sit on the sidelines while Donald Trump and his enablers tear down our institutions and threaten democracy. I refuse to play the polite games mainstream media plays. And now, I’m paying the price for it.

Your support, your subscriptions, your voices—that is what powers this work. Every post, every exposé, every challenge to Trumpism and its allies—it only happens because of your commitment to truth and accountability.

Some on the far right are continue to accuse me—falsely and outrageously—of endangering ICE agents. They’re tweeting things like:

“Aaron Parnas is panicking since @libsoftiktok and I called him out for endangering lives of ICE agents by him broadcasting future ICE raids. Parnas doesn’t care he’s risking American lives. @AGPamBondi, please investigate Parnas. He’s threatening to commit more federal crimes.”

Let me say it plainly: this is not journalism. This is not patriotism. This is political persecution. It’s an intimidation tactic straight out of the MAGA playbook—lie, smear, and hope someone in power bites.

Unlike the legacy outlets that act like stenographers to power, I fight back. But here’s the truth: I don’t have a multi-million dollar legal team. I don’t have a corporate newsroom with PR specialists ready to jump in and spin the story. What I have is this platform. And what I need is you.

And as if that wasn’t enough for one day, we were hit with the heartbreaking news of President Biden’s cancer diagnosis. A moment that should have united Americans in compassion and dignity.

So what did CNN do? Did they cover the story with the humanity it deserved? No. They used it as an opportunity to hawk Jake Tapper’s book and question Biden’s “mental acuity.” Minutes after the diagnosis was shared.

It’s disgusting. It’s unacceptable. And it tells you everything you need to know about the current state of mainstream media.

Point. Blank. Simple.

The American people deserve better. You deserve media that tells the truth, fights for justice, and refuses to be bullied into silence. That’s exactly what I will give you—every single day, no matter how loud the MAGA smear machine gets.

But I can’t do this alone.

If you believe in this fight—if you believe in independent journalism that doesn’t flinch in the face of threats—subscribe, share, and speak out.

Because they’re not just trying to shut me up. They’re trying to shut us up.

And I’ll be damned if we let them win.
