Today was one of those days that I will forever remember in my young journalistic career. A core memory has been made, and it’s only possible because of you.

This morning, I had the opportunity to interview France’s Foreign Minister. Yes — my first-ever interview with a world leader. Even just writing that sentence gives me pause. The French Government recognized something I’ve believed in from the beginning: our platform — this platform — has real reach. Real community. Real impact. In a media landscape full of noise, they saw the value in reaching people where they actually are.

I have the best job in the entire world, and you all allow me to do it full-time. Your support is what has made interviews like this possible. And that’s why, if you haven’t subscribed yet, I’m asking you to consider doing so today.

That moment didn’t just happen by chance. It happened because of you — the readers, the subscribers, the community builders.

It’s not just about keeping this going. It’s about growing it. It’s about scaling up an entirely new model of journalism, one that’s accountable only to the people reading and watching — not to corporations, not to advertisers, not to partisan interests.

Every paid subscription helps bring in more research, more production power, and more stories that matter.

Because this is just the beginning.

Tomorrow morning, I have another impactful interview lined up. I can’t say too much yet — but trust me, it’s a conversation you won’t want to miss. The news cycle moves at breakneck speed, but what fuels me isn’t just the headlines. It’s the people behind the story — the real, human lives that shape the world we live in. That’s what I’ll be bringing you tomorrow. That’s what I always try to bring.

So let me share something else — something behind the scenes.

I recently launched a YouTube channel. I brought on an editor (a brilliant one), and I’m actively looking to expand the team to include researchers, writers, and even more on-the-ground reporters. Up to now, it’s been a one-person newsroom: I read, write, edit, shoot, produce, publish, and post — every day, 15 to 16 hours a day. I haven’t taken a single day off this year.

But despite the grind, we’re doing something remarkable.

We’re beating the big dogs — not just competing with them. On a daily basis, we’re getting more impressions and views than CNN, MSNBC, even the New York Times’ breaking news alerts. Our scoops are landing first. Our stories are traveling faster. We’re doing it with transparency, independence, and zero institutional safety net.

And it’s all happening because of you — and your subscriptions.

That’s the honest truth.

I love this work with all my heart. It is, without exaggeration, the best job in the world. And it still amazes me that it’s mine. When I graduated from law school, I had no roadmap that led here. I didn’t think I’d be a journalist. I did know I wanted to be an advocate — especially for people who couldn’t speak up for themselves.

And that’s what journalism has become for me: a new form of advocacy. Telling the truth. Centering people’s voices. Challenging power when it overreaches. Creating space for the unheard to be heard.

So here’s my promise to you:

With every new subscription, this channel will grow. We will report deeper. We will reach farther. We will hold stronger. But no matter how big this platform gets, I will never stop responding to your messages, reading your notes, and doing the work with full transparency. We are independent, and we will always stay that way.

We will never — and I mean never — cave.

Let’s keep building. Let’s keep growing. Let’s keep doing journalism that matters.
