My first Substack piece is live. The fight ended in the cage. The real story started after the victory speech. Josh Hokit had a national platform and used it in a way that says more about character than competition. Read and tell me what you think: open.substack.com/pub/ashleysm...

Trump Has Failed as Commander in Chief

Remove Military Collaboration with Israel from this Year’s Defense Bill actionnetwork.org/petitions/st...

Apparently a house seat is up for grabs in my district 🤔🤔🤔

Renee Good’s life mattered. She was a human being, not a headline. We refuse numbness, cruelty, and systems that treat people as problems. Not in our name. Not on our watch. We choose courage, solidarity, and love. #ReneeGood #Justice

Just renewed my ANTIFA MEMBERSHIP for 2026 🇺🇸

Can’t even go to a memorial service in this country without predator in chief trying to start illegal wars 😑

The 💩 that spews daily from felon in chief is deplorable

Bread before ballrooms. Always. 🍞🏛️

Keeping the government closed isn’t leadership it’s sadistic, predatory, vindictive hostage taking while Americans suffer 💔

💀$130M to pay the military during a shutdown. Paid by a donor. Not the President. Not Congress. Just someone else cleaning up Trump’s leadership disaster. 🇺🇸⚡

Never in American history has a government website blamed citizens or a political party for a shutdown especially a USDA site meant to serve our farmers. This is unprecedented and unprofessional.

🚨 EMERGENCY ACTION 🚨 Sumud Flotilla ships intercepted 🌊❌ 75 mi from Gaza! Stand in solidarity! 🛶✊ 📍 345 Pine St, St. Louis, MO 🕓 4:30 PM Bring signs & flags 💙🪧 #SumudFlotilla #FreedomFlotilla #StandWithGaza @freedomflotilla.bsky.social

A president should solve problems, not cause them. Trump’s negotiating is just strong-arming, breaking the Constitution, and draining Americans’ wallets.

The clock is ticking Donald!

Tariffs alone won’t make North Carolina great. We need to invest in our people create real jobs and support skilled workers. Decades of outsourcing can’t be undone.

Trump’s administration is slashing the VA. 30,000 jobs lost, care disrupted, programs dismantled. This isn’t America first. Veterans deserve better. Restore VA funding now.

Colonizers never owned this land. True savagery is colonization. The Earth 🌎 belongs to all humanity. It is time to grow wiser.

To those serving, remember this. Your oath is to the Constitution, not to any man. That oath binds you to protect the American people, even when leaders forget their duty.

The strength of the U.S. military has never come from following ego. It comes from following the Constitution, the rule of law, and the sacred pact between soldier and citizen.

I.C.E. → Invisible Clown Energy 🤡 Even on U.S. soil, they hide behind masks while everyone else shows their face. #InvisibleClownEnergy #WeSeeYou #Accountability #PowerToThePeople

Arrest Netanyahu!!!

This is a horrible day The government is drinking its own colonizing koolaid Wounded Knee was a massacre not a battle Celebrating those who murdered hundreds of Lakota men women and children stains history and decency

Twenty billion for Argentina while our veterans sleep on the streets?! That’s NOT America first, that’s America betrayed!

Pulling nearly every general to Quantico is reckless dereliction that endangers our nation.

Week after week I stand for Gaza, for my community, and for humanity. True patriotism is striving for a more compassionate world. I walk this path of peace to protect children and Mother Earth. This is why I keep showing up. #FreePalestine #VeteransForPeace @vfpc61.bsky.social

Blue sky above, air around me, and Tai Chi flowing through my body. Returning to this practice helps me control my breath, find balance, and restore energy. Veterans can access these healing benefits through the VA 😍 Breathe, move, and reconnect with yourself.

As more than 50 boats from 44 countries sail toward Gaza the world is reminded that the blockade is illegal and unjust. From the seas to the streets we stand together for freedom and dignity. #WavesOfSolidarity #BreakTheSiege #FreeGaza #EndTheBlockade #FreedomFlotilla #CeasefireNow

Today we stood together in St. Peters, Missouri, as over 50 ships from 44 countries sail for Gaza. Our voices joined the global current calling for justice, freedom, and an end to the blockade. The waves are rising. ✊🇵🇸 #WavesOfSolidarity #EndTheBlockade #SolidarityWithFlotilla #CeasefireNow

When we gather in community our voices rise higher than walls and our unity is stronger than any blockade. Standing for Gaza means standing for each other. #WavesOfSolidarity #CommunityForGaza #FreeGaza #EndTheBlockade #CeasefireNow #Solidarity

Today Trump names a Dept of War. As a veteran, I answer from the white mountain at Weldon Spring: I proclaim the Department of Peace. War leaves poison in our soil and grief in our families. Peace is survival. #DepartmentOfPeace #VeteransForPeace #PeaceNotWar #WeldonSpring

I’m officially adopting this kitten 🐱

Our civilization deserves the peace our veterans fought, died, and served for, not a man who wants to be king.

Instead of glorifying war with a "Department of War," the U.S. should create a Department of Peace. Investing in diplomacy, conflict prevention, and social programs strengthens both domestic and global security.

@dropsitenews.com Gaza’s children are being maimed and murdered. This is genocide. The highest number of child amputees in history. Innocence stolen. Futures destroyed. The world cannot stay silent.

Congressman Bell @repwesleybellmo.bsky.social said the M in Missouri does not stand for Middle East. He is right. It should stand for #MORALITY. And morality means standing for every child’s life. #MORALITYinMissouri #FreePalestine #GazaGenocide #EndTheSiege
