Hello Adrianne, I'm Sandy Tolan. I'm a professor at USC in LA. I was doing research for a book when I came across your moving and brave memoir. I am hoping I could talk to you about a book I'm working on - it would be easier to explain in a call.

The fact that I know more about Fani Willis’ and Nathan Wade’s relationship than I do about the crimes committed by Ginni Thomas and Clarence Thomas shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

A lot of people spent a lot of time over the last year pretending that Biden was either being deceived or was personally against the things that Israel and Bibi were doing. And all of those people have been embarrassed by Biden showing over and over that he is in fact their biggest supporter.
