Last week, I accomplished an important milestone in my career: I reached 1K followers on this platform.
Before I realized that I was a targeted individual, for years I had yearned to drop the stress-filled legal profession to become a full-time journalist and writer. My goal was —and continues to be— to make this a better world through my writing. From the Puerto Rico corruption schemes and environmental crimes that I have documented, to priceless life lessons and heinous human rights violations that I have witnessed, I have a trove of stories that want to be told.
To each of my subscribers, I am deeply thankful. Today, despite the government criminals’ efforts to obliterate my credibility and life, every day I am closer to reaching my goal of becoming a professional writer because of your support.
A rough journey
The government criminals (“they/them”) have done everything to hide my newsletter and sabotage my vocation. For one, I cannot edit pictures within the post, and the editing tools do not always work. I thus apologize if my posts do not look as stylish as I would like them to be. In the minutiae, they sometimes prevail.
Most of the time, however, they miserably fail at what they aim for: suppressing my speech.
First, because technology squeals on them.
Then they seem to have been surreptitiously “hiding” my Substack newsletter from the public, making it “private.”
Then they randomly prevent followers from becoming paid subscribers.
Substack and its exclusive payment processor Stripe seem to be oblivious to them. They should pay attention, since the criminals are hacking their platforms/services to suppress free speech.
It also seems suspect that the processing fees that Stripe — the only processor on this platform— applies seem excessive. They hover from twenty to fifty percent on each subscription.
I set forth these examples to demonstrate what a rewarding feat it has been to have reached (and now surpassed) 1000 subscribers.
I am committed to continue spreading difficult Truths that too many shy away from.
Regardless of their efforts, I will not stop dropping red pills, spreading hope, and fighting to shut down “The Program.”
You, my appreciated 1000+ subscribers are testament to the fact that we can defeat them, despite their tools, unhinged access to “everything,” and abuse of power.
After trying every trick in the book available to them to suppress my speech, you are still here, reading this. And that is a great, big, huge accomplishment that they never saw coming.
Please help me defeat their shenanigans to suppress the Truth by continuing to share my publications and supporting my work.
Through this teamwork, we will continue to expose the darkness within the government. In due time, we will regain our birthright: the freedom that they stole from each one of us.
Ana, you are remarkable. I will support you to the end as I can. I just got an airline ticket to Colorado Springs round trip plus will be there all three days. Hoping my fellow TI will show up for a few days. God bless you and keep you strong, healthy and safe🌺
I know when I became a paid subscriber, it generated a fraud alert on my credit card. But when I notified my credit card company that it wasn't fraud, the charge went through. Congratulations on the continuing success of your substack!
