Thank you, Olivia! This is so relevant right now. You lay everything out so precisely and share it with your subscribers to help us see through the utter chaos of what this government is doing.
Liked, restacked & shared to Bluesky (as always). A clear exposition of a tragic situation which should never have happened, and were it not for the reprehensible policies of the Trump regime & the vile members of his sycophantic entourage, probably would not. Thank you for this article - it should be taught in civics classes.
If we want to remove dangerous, destructive, and simply evil people from the U.S., let's start with Stephen Miller and everyone in the crime syndicate at the (theoretical) top of this maladministration. I notice that they haven't deported the immigrant who entered illegally and became first lady.
You present the background, and the intent of these actions from a position of insider knowledge. You have laid out the patterns and the problems so well.
Well said. Unfortunately your thorough and thoughtful analysis won't translate well into a mean tweet, thus is very unlikely to be heard by those who need to hear it most.
An excellent summation, Olivia. Another possibility is that the shooter viewed the troops in D.C. as a MAGA version of the Taliban trying to seize power and control of his new country. We all know the natonal guard wasn't there to fight crime or restore order, but rather to stage a dress rehersal for what Trump has in mind for us down the line. Perhaps our shooter, himself a child of revolution and change of government, was trying to send us a message.
Thank you for so clearly describing the purity and anti immigration aspect of this tragic event. While the information in the press is limited, it describes the deterioration of a person with mental health issues that were not addressed. The mental health issues may have been caused/exacerbated by the Millerian anti other mentality, but the lack of a mental health safety net may have also entered into the problem. However, the thundering silence about the ready access to guns also needs to be again mentioned, at least so we may some day remember the fact that the founders specifically added the words “well regulated militia.” The corrupt regime may be remembering these words by establishing ICE, and considering it as their private army to regulate the populace.
You have outdone yourself. THIS is your best post ever. Brava! I will boost it on my Substack later today. Thank you for your needed insights. 🗽
Such a clear, important post. Thank you for your dedication to keep us informed.
Brilliantly put💙
Concise, informative, and from someone in the know about this dreadful administration. Thank you!

You're a hero!
Thank you!
Perfect summary of the root cause of this tragedy. Too bad there is currently no one in power with your insight.

This needs to be published in MSM as well. Excellent piece.

Brilliant analysis, Olivia!

Probably the best thing I’ve read on Substack!

Thank you Olivia. Your voice is so appreciated.
Today's column is one of the best I have seen about the nightmarish conditions in which Americans live. Brava, Olivia.

I agree this is your best post! If only the Administration was inclined to listen to your insight. You are always clear and fair.
