For those who follow me here-thank you. But spend most of my time on Bluesky now and never regret it. Already have more followers in a few months than 13 years on Xitter

I’ve taken a lot of hits, and I’ve deserved some of them. I beat myself up over them more than you can imagine.
But the grace people have shown me here is truly humbling.
Some of the kindest words have come from the people you’d least expect.
And for that I am so grateful.
This isn’t about me. It’s about every person in recovery who shows up and tries again.
And to everyone still in the fight tonight: you are not alone, I see you.
WTF is wrong with @alexwagner?
On MSNBC tonight, she attacked @HunterBiden over his addiction and personal life like some cheap right-wing troll, all because people are responding to him.
Maybe Democrats like Hunter because he’s real, unfiltered, and has actually lived through the media garbage he’s calling out.
You and your elitist friends don’t get to tell us who we’re allowed to like or defend. We’re sick of the failed media gatekeepers.
Hunter is saying what millions of Democrats have been waiting to hear.
Deal with it.
Things most Americans agree on:
Groceries cost too much.
Tariffs suck and make no sense.
Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.
The debt is a mess.
The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.
Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.
Americans are exhausted.
AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.
Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.
Canadians are super fucking cool.
Mexicans are chill.
Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.
Good neighbors are a blessing.
Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.
We all question, are we alone in the universe?
We all fuck up along the way.
Epstein didn’t hang himself.
The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.
The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!
Things we’re told to fight about:
Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.
That’s the joke.
Everyone is on notice!!
That Scott Brady was part of framing Joe and Hunter Biden and hahahaha he claims to be searching for fraud rather than other political hit jobs.
Brady's involvement in this charade makes it clear it is corrupt and squalid.
When people want to discredit a woman, they rarely start with the facts. The first attack is almost always aimed at her honor, her dignity, and her reputation.
Perhaps because facts can be challenged. Defamation, on the other hand, relies on emotion, prejudice, and repetition.
What is most curious is that even women who have made difficult choices or faced adverse circumstances often display more honor than those who, knowing the truth, choose slander, lies, and derogatory insinuations to compensate for their lack of arguments.
Over the past few months, countless false stories have circulated about me, especially in my own country. Among them were absurd narratives related to the Epstein case. The only true fact is that, at one point in my life, I accepted a ride. Yet the relentless repetition of that information led some people to construct fantasies so detached from reality that they began associating me with stories that do not withstand even the most basic exercise in logic.
One simple question would be enough: how could someone occupy the role they try to assign to me while simultaneously maintaining a long-term relationship and a son?
The answer is so obvious that it requires no intellectual effort.
But truth has an interesting characteristic: it continues to exist even when people try to bury it beneath convenient narratives.
Recently, I have also heard insults directed not only at me, but at Brazilian women as a whole, in a generalized and derogatory manner. Generalizations are the refuge of those who cannot sustain an individual analysis. They are lazy simplifications of a complex reality and almost always reveal more about the speaker than about the person being targeted.
I have endured aggression, attacks, judgment, and constant attempts at dehumanization. Perhaps that is why one of the greatest feelings of freedom I have experienced recently came from something remarkably simple: accepting my own humanity.
I am not perfect. I am not programmed. I am not a machine built to react in ways that others find convenient.
I am human.
And perhaps that is exactly what troubles some people: the impossibility of controlling someone who no longer needs to prove who she is.
Right! And we are all brainwashed to think it’s something to aspire to. I know this is old but the difference between one million and one billion is so vast I think people can’t comprehend it. One million seconds equals is 11.5 days. One billion seconds is 31.7 Years. And Elon is about to be a trillionaire. That would be 31,700 years. Now do the math in dollars. And the fact is that no one in the history of the world has ever attained that wealth by any other means then some form of domination over others. I do not begrudge financial success, but I do have a real problem when the the top 0.1% (130,000 families) hold 6 times the wealth as the bottom 66 million households combined. Put another way 905 individuals in America have twice the wealth of the entire bottom half of the country- 165,000,000 people. And it wasn’t always this way. The top 0.1 percent’s share of the U.S. wealth pie has grown 59.6 percent since just 1989.
Trump hasn’t made a public appearance in 8 days. This after an unscheduled visit to the hospital- because he “likes getting check ups.” Thank God Jake Tapper (or as I like to call him- the Brick Tamland of his generation) is on the case hunting down clues in a book about my mom’s experience as First Lady four years ago.
As this decrepit, decaying, delusional POS continues his assault on democracy, the press, and basic decency, one can only wonder why the fuck Jake Tapper is busy attacking Jill Biden.
Fuck you too, Jake Tapper. I will never, EVER buy any of your books.
Wow. Look at the reaction to Hunter’s post.
So many of us have been waiting for someone to say this out loud, and fittingly, it came from the person who has actually lived through the nonstop bullshit pushed by people like Jake Tapper.
Hunter Biden has every right to call it what it is. The double standards. The obsession. The media’s endless appetite for Biden family drama while Trump and his family openly cash in.
I only hope the Pod Boys are next.
Bravo, Hunter.
So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
Todd Blanche was Donald Trump’s personal attorney. And last week, Pam Bondi made clear that he’s been the one handling the release of the Epstein Files. The astounding levels of corruption and cover up will be studied in history books one day.
And Republicans in Congress are enabling every part of it. Chairman James Comer has effectively shut down the Oversight Committee. He refuses to hold real hearing to avoid new subpoenas, and refuses to ensure Trump administration officials testify under oath.
Then we learned Howard Lutnick - the Trump commerce secretary who was granted an interview behind close doors and has been caught lying about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein - gave the Republican campaign arm $5 million. Because of course he did.
And Speaker Mike Johnson keeps cancelling House votes and sending members home instead of allowing Congress to do its job and investigate the most egregious cover up in American history.
June is the 6 year anniversary of me revealing my name to the world via this article after having been anonymous for 2 years covering Trump/Russia. Cathy Harris was my lawyer before Biden appointed her to the MSPB, & now we’re both suing for wrongful termination.
