Hey Friends, I’m here of Substack, and here is why I decided to leave MSNBC and go 100% independent with all my content.

Substack is the only platform not currently owned by a billionaire, and I have full editorial control over my content.
It’s why I’m here. Thank you all for joining me.
Let’s redefine the future of media in America, together.
The problem with Social Security isn't "fraud."
The problem with Social Security is that as the rich have gotten richer, more of their income has escaped the cap on the SS payroll tax.
In fact, millionaires stop paying SS taxes today.
We can fix this by scrapping the cap.

Hey guys. Sorry if you got a notification I had a video up. I opened a blaster of illusions and I somehow recorded it in slow motion making an 8 minute video 49 mins. I feel dumb. I’ll post “my hits” as soon as my daughter wraps up her basketball season. They are currently 0-7. Will they win the final game? I’m taking action on the game now. I’ll have a pod up later for my payers.
People chase pleasure like it's the key to happiness. It isn't. The more you indulge, the emptier you feel. True fulfillment doesn't come from consuming—it comes from creating, building, pushing yourself beyond your limits. Chase meaning and an interesting life, not pleasure.
Chasing pleasure often leads to temporary highs and long-term emptiness. True fulfillment lies in growth, discipline, and purpose.
When you focus on creating and pushing your limits, you’re building something lasting. Meaning comes from overcoming challenges, not seeking comfort. It’s through struggle that you discover your true potential.
Reengineer your synapses to react positively to experiences that ordinarily wouldn’t warrant a burst of endorphins.

The quieter you become, the more you can hear.
Silence isn't empty.
It's full of answers.
Not every thought needs attention. Not every emotion needs action.
Learn to observe without reacting.
The voice in your head isn't always telling the truth.
It exaggerates.
It assumes the worst.
It dwells on the negative.
Question it like you would question a stranger.
Not all thoughts deserve your trust.
