America has a long history of weaponizing immigration enforcement — from the Palmer Raids to Japanese internment. But never like this.

This isn’t about border security anymore. iPINIONS asserts that it’s about silencing dissent, criminalizing protest, and making… Read more.
For over 20 years, I’ve been writing vanguard commentary — tackling global issues long before they reached the mainstream. From social media and politics to sports and entertainment, my posts didn’t follow the headlines. They forecasted them.
