Prior to reading Mary, this was my favorite quote so far this morning: “Forty years ago, people would write movies where the punchline was, ‘and the corruption goes all the way to the top!’ Today, that’s the starting point.” - Ken Burns

Now, it's Mary's entire thing.

I used to follow CNN, MSNBC, and the BBC, daily. Now it's Mary Geddry, Robin Snyder, and Heather Cox Richardson. They cover everything I need to know.

Mary puts legacy media to shame. Great reporting and writing as usual.

MAGA and its enablers have us on a national suicide mission. Trump’s sordid, rabid, soulless corruption, now wrapped in daily episodes of insanity, continues to destroy everything in its wake.

The psychopaths and billionaires who are driving the agenda are either too insulated and arrogant to see reality, or is American Armageddon is their goal?

Enablers with power, like legacy media and major institutions, need to wake up, blare truth to power, and help stop the madness of the MAGA coup.

I wonder the same. And the effort to continually put out the quality writing of events local and abroad where they intersect is absolutely stunning. Thank you Mary!

You are the gift that just keeps on giving every day much like the little engine that could! My days are brighter, even in this dark, dismal time because of you, Mary! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You inspire me and give me hope to keep on keeping on!

were it not for writers like you, so much of what is going on in this country would pass by un noticed and not understood. part of the problem that i think we all have is keeping track of all the vileness... the volume is overwhelming. like drinking from a fire hose... barely do we dig into one atrocity then we have to drop it and move onto the next. if one were to flowchart all this out (i am an engineer, we like things like that to organize complex issues) it would fill half the wall space of his new ball room/bunker/griftorium that he is building. a president with his own personal slush fund grift crypto account with no accountability at all, still adored by the very people he is ignoring at best, harming at worst, and they still do not see what he has done to them. i suspect that they never will admit it, for to do so is to admit that one's behavior has been stupid and moronic... like falling for the e-mails from princes in Africa wanting to send you money right after you send them all your personal information... as an aside, i work with a number of Canadian companies as a consultant... each phone call starts with a 15 minute apology for our country then another 15 minutes of trying to make sense of it all... i have other clients who want to grow their businesses here in the US, need or want equipment or materials from Asia, and for the past year have been unable or reluctant to do so... now tariffs are back where they were under Biden, but no one can move as you do not know if the next week they will be back on again... a company writes a PO today and by the time it is accepted we could be back to 100% or 1000% or 10,000% (oh wait.. that is drug price reductions..). as a consequence, American businesses are proverbial "deer in headlights..." we have no labor, we have no intellectual capital as we have convinced teenagers that science is bad, college is bad, and we do not allow talented workers into the country any more. what businesses exactly will get built in the US under these conditions? and meanwhile, he hides his shame over Epstein, and a small cadre of people get very rich... Al Capone has just become the branch manager of the local bank

The Grass Roots Movements have high-lighted with exceptional foresight the coming actions need, not just in this country but specifically . Whether it’s an Arab Spring or No Kings their rings are loud , clear , and bellwethers.

Learning how these writers keen sense and trusted nosey digging works as they polish their experience…is a stand-up …..BRAVO🫶👏

Not only informing, but encouraging was needed as a complacent society near sat back and ‘took it’ you know where!

The degree of complicity surprised me, I’ll admit, and still yet far too many teetering fence setters exist as our country fell sharply on that (now famous) ‘down’escalator . Long before that flags went up -not only in my head-there was trouble with a capital T..brewing.

And here we are. Long played plans whispered “coup “ the rest has unfolded …

Mary’s genius hammers remarkably . Substack has a long list of good writers telling the real story. TY.

Remember their names.

This money laundering regarding Epstein and Trump and Russian players explains a lot about why Trump is afraid of Putin and the Epstein files.
