The past two weeks have been nothing short of seismic. From the shock of the Kirk assassination, to the abrupt Kimmel cancellation, to Vice President Harris’s book tour stop last night—every day has brought new turmoil. And now, tonight, the news breaks: James Comey has been indicted.

Pause for a moment and take that in. The sitting President of the United States has leaned on the Department of Justice to prosecute his chief political opponent. This isn’t just unusual. It’s dangerous. It’s an abuse of power that experts inside DOJ are already calling “among the worst in the department’s history. Shocking. Hard to overstate.”

This is not politics as usual. This is an inflection point for our nation. Because while many in the mainstream will hedge or stay silent, I won’t. Let me be blunt: if they can do this to Comey, they can do it to anyone. Some in positions of influence—even inside the White House—would prefer I be silenced next. Or worse. But we are not stopping.

I know many of you are asking the same questions I’m hearing daily: Where do we go from here? How do we ensure Americans still have access to truth?

The answers aren’t easy. But I can promise you this: I’m working on it. This platform has always reminded me of a story from childhood—The Little Engine That Could. The climb is steep, the weight is heavy, and there are powerful forces trying to stop us. Yet here we are, still moving, still growing.

In just the past year, our reporting has reached over 80 million Americans—nearly a quarter of the country. And that’s just the beginning.

I started this journey when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. My family was under fire—bombs, tanks, sirens. I saw the disconnect between what they lived and what cable news reported. So I picked up my phone and started telling the truth. That mission hasn’t changed: deliver facts, not spin. Build trust, not division.

And make no mistake: one of the greatest threats facing America right now is the collapse of civic understanding. Schools have abandoned civics education, literacy is falling, and too many leaders care more about restricting knowledge than expanding it. That vacuum leaves a generation vulnerable to disinformation.

We can’t wait for social media platforms to solve this—they’ve proven they won’t. The responsibility falls to us. That’s why this platform exists.

I don’t inject my opinions into the news. Because journalism isn’t about telling people what to think—it’s about giving them the truth so they can think for themselves. That’s why this community has grown across party lines. Republicans, Democrats, independents—all come here for one reason: the facts.

This is only the beginning. The mission is to grow deliberately and responsibly—not for scale’s sake, but to empower the next generation of journalists. To give young reporters the tools and platform I never had, so they can bring honest reporting to their communities.

America faces many problems, but at the top of the list is a collapse of trust in the media. I’m trying to rebuild that—one video, one post, one fact at a time. And it’s working.

We are just one year in.

Together, we can keep building.
Together, we can ensure truth reaches further, faster, and louder than the lies.
