Ladies and Gentlemen,

This is why we pay for the paywall. This is why we scroll our stories throughout the day waiting on the next well sculpted sentence. Thank God for Substack being what it is and allowing free speech to still have standing. And thank God for you, Jessica. This was so perfectly written. Love you!

I was born in the former Soviet Union and remember how my parents constantly talked about moving to ‘America’—the land of freedom, free speech, and truth, as envisioned through immigrant dreams that seemed destined to come true. That was 30 years ago. These last four years, however, feel like a terrible B-movie produced by the Soviets and marketed by TEMU. It’s surreal.

What happened?!?
