I’ve been a conservative-leaning registered Republican my entire adult life.

My vote, however, is earned, not given—I’ve voted for Republican and Democratic candidates alike over the years.

I’ve also been a huge Bruce Springsteen fan my entire life. His music—especially his lyrics—have appealed to me from day one.

If you read his lyrics, they are literally touching on the same themes J.D. Vance espoused in his book Hillbilly Eligy.

Working class Americans abandoned by the monied elite.

Which is why Bruce’s announcement that he will be leaving the United States for Australia if Trump is reelected is puzzling.

J.D. Vance, Trump’s pick for Vice President, is the personification of the America Springsteen sang about.

And now Springsteen is turning his back on that which he once seemed to champion.

I will still listen to Springsteen—his music is an important part of the soundtrack of my life.

But I will never again conflate his lyrics with the man who wrote them.

Far from being the bard of the working class American, Bruce Springsteen has become a pillar of the monied elite who have brought America to the sad place it currently occupies.

Enjoy Australia, Boss, ‘cause baby you were born to run.

Ok, Scott.🙄🤮

Your "concern" for Palestinians means fuck all.

Who is next?

⁣The Reagan years are gone.

The “old” Republicans have morphed into one side of a duopoly which, along with the mainstream Democrats, preside over an unelected “establishment” that governs without the consent of the people.

MAGA, for its many faults, operates outside this establishment.

Hopefully MAGA can dismantle this establishment.

It is the only way to save America.

⁣The EU is negating itself.

Words do not equate to action.

The EU lacks the capacity to follow through meaningfully.

The Ukraine conflict empowers the EU.

When the conflict ends, this posturing will end.

And so will the EU.

Just a reminder to everyone that before Gaza there was Iraq.

Genocide Joe has been at this for a long time.

⁣Since you’re employed by the WSJ covering Russia, maybe you can shed light on some questions:

Who was Evan’s editor in the WSJ hierarchy?

Who assigned Evan the story that caused him to travel to Ekaterinburg?

Who approved of Evan’s source that he was meeting in Ekaterinburg?

What are the WSJ rules and procedures about meeting with sources in Russia?

Was Evan collaborating with other WSJ on his story?

What are the rules set by the WSJ when it comes to receiving information from sources in Russia that would be considered sensitive or classified by Russian authorities?

I think honest answers to these questions might shed some light on the legitimacy of Russia’s charges against Evan.
