I just wanted to say thank you; not the polite, perfunctory kind, but the real kind. The kind that comes from deep gratitude for your courage, your tenacity, and your refusal to sit quietly while this administration tramples transparency and risks dragging us into yet another shadow war. You’ve been loud when too many have chosen silence. You’ve been clear when others hide behind bureaucratic fog. And you’ve been right to demand answers - about these lethal boat strikes off South America, about the 61 lives lost without due process, and about why the people’s representatives are being cut out of the truth. It takes guts to call out power when it’s convenient for everyone else to look away. It takes even more to do it with the moral clarity and urgency you bring. That’s leadership, the kind that reminds people that accountability isn’t optional, that oversight isn’t performative, and that secrecy kills far more than it protects. Please don’t stop. Keep raising hell. Keep demanding light where others prefer shadows. Because every time you do, you remind the rest of us that democracy isn’t a spectator sport; it’s a daily fight to keep the truth alive. From all of us who still believe in transparency, the rule of law, and a government that earns its power by earning our trust, thank you.
