This is really good. “The correct way to practice politics in 2026 is to read The New York Times but remember that much of the essential news to save our democracy has been fit to print elsewhere.”

1. On Tuesday morning, Trump unveiled America dot gov, which he described as “the ultimate product.” Right now, it is basically a chatbot that draws data from official government websites. As a result it is brutally efficient at debunking Trump’s lies.

Coming out on October 6th! Pre-order #FreedomsDaughters so you are among the first to read the book that librarians and early readers LOVE.

Five star book review of Freedom's Daughters that says,
I finished this book in two days, devouring every word. I honestly feel like I will need to go back and listen again at some point, as it is power
packed with such informative history. This should be required reading for high school students moving forward. This history needs to taught, and immersed into the greater narrative of the history of this country. What a powerful read!

Michael Tracey : If you happen to know who this Cornell "Jane Doe" is, get in touch and I would be happy to publish her name and identifying information. And yes -- this is 100% permitted under the First Amendment, whatever threats or emotional blackmail people might want to deploy

"Report" me for what, exactly? Save your breath, scumbag. Sorry you hate the First Amendment so much. Her identity is obviously newsworthy at this point, and I will take extreme pleasure in reporting it. (Not "doxing" -- that's a total canard)
