REGISTRATION: Bette’s Double Header Tuesday
Bette Members: Please register for either or both of today’s events: Tamar Kintsurashvili — E.D. of the Media Development Foundation, 10 am PT; and our Happy Hour Mueller Time, 5 pm PT
To join our community events, please take out a subscription. Every membership supports the light of truth and keeps my lights on.
Burning witches is de rigueur for the fascist sects — anti-democratic operatives are devoid of ideas so they default to culture wars to ‘Hillary’ women who point out their treason. It’s important to write your own narrative and not let others define you. I published two ebooks that explain my journey from punk rock mom in broadcast news to full-time pro-democracy journo-activist. If you haven’t yet read them, you can find them here:

The reason I’m bringing this up is good-hearted people keep sliding into my DMs to tell me what ‘people’ are saying about me. I politely explain that what people say about me is none of my business and is out of my control. But owning my past and my own narrative is in my control, which is why I published the books. One is my political journey — It’s Komprocated — how I became an independent investigative reporter during the run up to fascism in the US; and the other is my horny roman à clef — Fox Undercover: Four Lovers, One Husband, and a Really Bad Breakup. The bad breakup was with broadcast news.
A teaser for both can be found here:
As I explain to folks, don’t get lost in the code. Much of what we are seeing is simply the run up to the election and the amount of money being poured into interfering with truth. Grateful to the Little Rock, Arkansas, high school punk band — Little Rock Massacre — who wrote an amazing song To Burn A Witch, that uses my interview from a Thom Hartmann radio appearance. They get it.
Shout out to Jack Hopkins, who went public to defend my podcast partner Jim Stewartson on Twitter. Hopkins shows how it’s done when attacked by ‘people’ — the ‘people’ is parenthetical because they’re generally paid operatives, members of hate cults, or bots — devoid of humanity.
Hopkins wrote:
The attack on me for having retweeted and promoted Jim Stewartson is intense.
I will tell you this, when people want to label someone like Jim Stewartson a “traitor”, because he has been speaking out about Gen. Mike Flynn… and working so aggressively to crush accounts like mine, who are suggesting that people read what Jim has to say….and going to such extremes to smear people like me, you better know you probably want to be paying attention and reading the material Jim is posting, and deciding for yourself.
They are afraid of Jim Stewartson.
This appears to be a high level and very sophisticated organization of social engineering people who are hell bent on destroying any voices speaking out against them, that have a larger than average reach.
Fuck them. One….and all.
Thanks Jack. Means the world.
Today, let’s celebrate humanity and the bravery of those who stand up to disinformers.
Here are the events for today. The first one begins in less than an hour:
At 10 am PT/1 pm ET, we are hosting an impromptu Speakeasy with Tamar Kinturashvili, who is on the frontlines of combating disinformation in Georgia, and who was targeted with active measures during the protests against the new Russian law.

At 5 pm PT/8 pm ET, I am hosting our weekly Happy Hour, and dedicating it to walking us through my Mueller Report thread. Registration details here and below:
