So glad you are covering Marianne! I'm RFK all day but I think she is a really amazing lady and her intentions are honest.

Several topics of hers I do not agree on but love that you covered her. I want all the non-shiny grassroots to gain speed and strength!

Biden definitely needs to retire

Leave it to Jessica to have me completely invested in something or someone I’d never ever even glance at💁🏼‍♀️

Marianne lost a lot of mom supporters when she waffled back and forth on vaccine mandates. She took a stand, then later tucked her tail and “clarified” her statements with an apology for her “mistake”. Many of us will never look at her the same after that.

I don’t know any mom who hasn’t battled to understand the vaccine thing. Not an easy answer. Marianne is one of us.

As a photographer I’m dying to know - are these photos ones you took on your new Leica or did you get a film camera?

They are! I don't now how to use it yet but loving it!

As the lunatic left tries to keep Trump off ballots across the nation, they call him the fascist! Thank God for SCOTUS unanimously stopping that madness.

That cracks me up that the people running for President can’t keep Trump’s name out of their mouths. They hate us who do support Trump and that they don’t see that is infuriating. They don’t have a plan other than destroy Trump & his supporters….. at all costs.

We are a very divided nation who will more than likely never be united because of all this nonsense.

It’s only because of your coverage that I had any interest in Marianne. As usual, you did not disappoint. Your perspective makes everything a worthwhile read and you shine a light on a wonderful human being who deserves our respect. If our political class had half of her virtues, the country would be a much better place.

What about the Israeli hostages who are being raped & tortured every day?

Expand full comment

Ask Williamson and she will tell you the rape stories have all been debunked from the White House to Israeli media. Investigations are underway at the NYT for this fake story that caused monumental loss of innocent lives. On the other hand the country you support are murdering, raping and torturing my people. With your tax money. I guess you are ok with that because of the apparently imminent second coming of Christ?

Nothing has been debunked. The UN just acknowledged that the hostages are still being tortured via rape and other sex tortures. They heard straight from the hostages that were released. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I can’t believe we watched an attack live time and had many friends over there filming and you maintain it didn’t happen. Marianne is delusional when it comes to this. Israel has the right to defend themselves and get their hostages back. And the US funded your Hamas to start the attack. The US is complicit in both sides. Stop with this nonsense of single issue voting. Yes she for peace but so is Bobby. And he has more experience with the underworld of DC and how to defeat them. Marianne will cave just like trump when it comes down to it. They’ll strong arm her. Voting for someone because of Gaza and Israel is not about what’s best for America. 🇺🇸 let’s start there.

That’s not true re UN “report” see below. The US funding your Israel, is definitely not good for America. https://x.com/maxblumenthal/status/1764916537834520890?s=46&t=IyertO4BDunk61Mnszhy9Q

I watched it live. I know exactly what the UN said. I won’t trust that report by Blumenthal because he’s twisting words in this report as well.

It was a massacre scene and the witnesses were beyond traumatized. They said there was some bodies moved during their investigation. Yeah, their investigation came waaaay after it should have.

There’s no mincing words when the UN said the findings concluded that there were major sex torture war crimes and have enough to be convinced it’s still happening to current hostages. 150 days too late, but whatever. At least they’re finally acknowledging it. Enough with this Hamas sympathy. The protesters are violent and destroying parts of our country. They defaced the Vietnam Vet Memorial, they’ve killed a few people, they harass….. if they want to fight for that right and align with their values…. Then move. That kind of behavior doesn’t belong here. If you want to protest, fine. But that’s not what these people do. They storm the Capitol . Our Capitol. Twice now. They shut down subways. They stormed an airplane looking for Jews to kill. 🤦🏼‍♀️ for crying out loud. This BLM mindset has to go. It’s destructive. Have your opinion but it shouldn’t alter or harm other people that are living in America. 🇺🇸 if you want that lifestyle move to where it’s lawful. It’s criminal here.

Looks like Israel’s fear mongering got to you and I know it has been overwhelming but so dehumanizing for my people who are being slaughtered by USA and Israel as I write. The mere fact that you are debating a Palestinian (me, a very proud one) without a shred of curiosity says it all really.

Expand full comment

If you are for the eradication of the Jewish people then you are with Hamas. They attacked & murdered the innocent October 7th. I pray you see what Hamas is doing, both to Israel and your own people.

And yes, Jesus Christ will return one day. I pray it is today. He is the Prince of Peace.

I am glad you covered Marianne. Light and fun article to read!

And I know I don't usually comment on your substack articles-- but I read the majority of them and always get a chuckle along with the varied interesting bits and perspectives. Thank you!

Okay now. You just impressed me! The fact that you listened to a stranger with the prompt “you deserve it” and bought the Leica. Yes! Anyone smart enough to even walk into a Leica store deserves to buy the camera. You’ll never regret the purchase unless you set it down at random event and someone lifts it like your cute clutch!

I’m also glad you’re covering Marianne. She’s worth your time and we could all learn to be a bit more human from her!

❤️🤍💙

I needed to her this, Robyn. Thank you!

While I like that Marianne thinks "outside of the box" I think it's odd that all other leaning lefters or progressives who don't like Biden (sans RFKjr supporters, it appears) have to "neverTrump" virtue signal. Also, her whole career was built on a "channelled" book, "A Course in Miracles". The essence of what she stands for is good. The foundation on which her ideas stand? Not so sure.
