I’m so happy to announce that my books have won another award! 🏆❤️
My first three children’s books, which are part of a series inspired by my life and journey, have earned the Silver Medal (Second Place) for Best Nonfiction Book Series at the 2026 Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards!
What makes this recognition even more special is that these awards receive submissions from authors and publishers around the world. To have our books recognized on this level is truly an honor. I never imagined that one day, my life story and the mission of spreading kindness, one lawn at a time, would become award-winning children’s books.
A huge shout-out to my wonderful illustrator, Valeria, for bringing these stories to life through her beautiful artwork. Your talent has helped turn my memories and experiences into something children and families can enjoy for years to come. None of this would be possible without you. Thank you, Valeria! ❤️
Another reminder that you never know how far a simple act of kindness can go. 💚
This is Scott Kretzschmar. He is one of the Cornell rapists.
In the group chat, before joining in on the gang rape, he said “No more Jhu Fatties. Better not be a fatty again.”
So let’s review - he planned to rape her. He just didn’t want her to be “fat”. And - pay attention here - he said AGAIN.
AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ChasSteinman@ldsabuse Interesting assumption that this is a hobby & that I haven't been personally affected by these issues.
You show the same kind of support to survivors that LDS Inc does. Gross. Continue living in your ignorance. Your eyes will be opened one day.
Today, I had the honor of meeting Glenda Noble, and one thing was clear from talking with her—she is a fighter. ❤️🎀 Glenda first battled Stage 1 breast cancer and thought that chapter was behind her. Fourteen years later, the cancer returned, this time as Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer that had spread to her bones. She is now undergoing aggressive chemotherapy after three years on a chemotherapy pill that eventually stopped working. Glenda knows her cancer is treatable but not curable, yet she refuses to give up. She leans heavily on a family that she can call anytime she feels down, and she credits her positive mindset with helping her continue this fight. Her message to anyone facing cancer says it all: “We got this. Stay positive. I’m not going to give up. I’m going to fight it.” Please keep Glenda in your prayers as she continues fighting. 🙏🏾💕 Be sure to check out their video in my next post.
As the HSBC whistleblower, I need to say something about whistleblower Simon Andriesz.
@SAndriesz raised concerns at BGC Partners and was fired. He reported to the FBI in 2020 and 2021 that he believed Howard Lutnick had undeclared business ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Nothing happened. He took it to Congress. He spent years trying to get anyone to listen.
He took his own life. He was 57.
I spoke with Simon through Whistleblowers of America @WhistleP2P. He was serious and careful and worn down from being ignored. Now his case is in every headline, covered with an intensity he never saw while he was alive.
That is the pattern, and I want to name it. We marginalize whistleblowers while they are breathing and discover them when they are dead.
I know what Simon was carrying, because I carried it too.
In 2012 I found out that HSBC would pay a fine and not one banker would go to prison. I had lost my job, my savings, and every door in my industry. I was living in a 300 square foot apartment with a Flemish Giant rabbit who had the run of the place. I had decided I was done.
Right as I was about to do it, she hopped over to me.
I thought: who is going to feed the rabbit?
That question stopped me. Years later I named my company Tactical Rabbit. People think it is a clever brand. It is the reason I am alive.
Here is what I want people to understand about how whistleblowers die.
Simon's death was a suicide. I am not saying otherwise. But I have lived through what gets aimed at a person who exposes the powerful, and I will not pretend it is a coincidence when one of us does not make it. After HSBC I faced external threats from the same cartels and terrorist networks whose money I had reported. On top of that came the harassment, the bullying, the targeting, the psychological warfare that is designed to isolate you and make you doubt your own mind. It is not a side effect. It is the strategy. Its purpose is to break the person so the facts never matter.
Sometimes it works. A lot of whistleblowers do not survive it. I nearly did not. So when I say the campaigns against whistleblowers are a kind of killing, I do not mean it literally, but I mean it. The people who run them know exactly what they are doing to a human being, and it should be treated as the crime it is.
This is why I serve on the board of Whistleblowers of America. Everyone else focuses on the case. Whistleblowers of America on the person: the trauma, the mental pain, the years after the headline when the phone stops ringing.
If you are a whistleblower reading this, or you are sitting on something and deciding whether to speak, hear me clearly. It gets dark. It also gets better. There are people who care about you and will stand beside you, and I am one of them. Reach out to me. Reach out to Whistleblowers of America. Reach out to anyone. Do not carry it alone.
Simon, I am sorry the world listened too late. Rest in peace.
@ChasSteinman@ldsabuse You may not like what Justin posts, but at least do your own research. Look into Gordon Bowen, David Hamblin, former Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt's brother, David Leavitt. Watch some episodes of We Are the People Utah podcast. It's not comfortable; it is important.
Around 1 a.m. in Ontario, Canada, 18-year-old Aeron McQuillin, 17-year-old Bailey Campbell, and 15-year-old Billy Tarbett, who had gone out for a late-night snack, came across a woman stranded on the side of the road after her car had broken down, and she told them she could not afford a tow truck.
Instead of continuing on their way, the three teenagers decided to help, and with the woman steering they began pushing the car by hand, moving it nearly 7 kilometers down the road toward her home over a trip that took more than 2 hours.
Another driver eventually stopped and followed behind them with headlights and hazard lights on for safety, and even as hills, exhaustion, and a dead battery made the work harder, the boys kept going until just after 4 a.m., when they finally pushed the car into the woman’s driveway.
Judaism is a 3,500 year old religion
Zionism is a 150 year old settler-colonial ideology
Conflating the two is absurd and antisemitic
The people who do it the most are Zionists and antisemites because its in their interest.
