Doomed to repeat now on repeat. Most of these guys — Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan — need to be the subject of investigative journalism and probably sued individually as well as their governmental departments. But our anger and disgust is muted because we don’t know history and actual news — not TV slanted to keep the administration of their backs — that reaches the broad swaths of us, the reds and the blues and indies. Before the stratification of news into the palms of our hands, we agreed a little bit on facts. Now a fact has to hit us in the head or the pocketbook for us to raise our heads and go, “They’re doing that, really, I didn’t vote for that.” You are writing all the right things. What I’m trying to say is people need to see Alligator Alcatraz, the cages, the single toilet for 32 prisoners, the conditions and the people being held. Reading you is helpful and how can we get you read far and wide? But the visuals need everyone’s eyeballs. That this is done in our name is intolerable and makes me feel pathetic.
Thank you. Seriously. You're absolutely right, this is happening in our name, in the name of Americans, under the cloak of patriotism... and far too many people still don’t see it.
As far as your question about how to get my voice heard in more corners of the internet...I’ve been trying to push out further and speak on the issues folks ask about, but one thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of people follow me here instead of subscribing. And while I’m grateful for every single follower, the Internet God's really prioritize subscribers numbers over followers numbers when it comes to visibility. So if you do share my work, let folks know that subscribing helps a lot in getting this seen.
And no—I’m not talking about paid subscriptions. That’s there only if someone wants to help support me in doing this full-time. I want to make sure this message reaches everyone, regardless of their income or tax bracket.
Also, just like on Facebook or Reddit, interaction matters. Comments, likes, and chats on my Substack help feed the algorithm. So every post, every response—it truly makes a difference.
I appreciate your voice here, and I hope that answered your question.
