The Noise and the Silence I have been scrolling through the timeline and the screaming headlines for twenty-four hours. Everyone is yelling. The TV talking heads are arguing about "operations" and "resistance." The internet is fighting about whether a 37-year-old mother in a car was a hero or a threat. But in all this noise, I realized we lost the person. Renee Nicole Good died on a snowy street in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. That is the fact. But before she was a victim or a hashtag, she was a woman who spent her life looking for a place to just be . I dug through the records. I read her poetry. I looked at the map of her life. It is not the story of a radical. It is the story of a mom who kept moving, trying to outrun grief and find a little bit of peace. A Girl from the Mountains Renee started in Colorado Springs. Born around '88 or '89. If you know the Springs, you know it is beautiful but tough. Big mountains, big m...

The Sound of the Other Shoe Dropping I am sitting here with a lukewarm coffee and a sticky keyboard (I spilled coffee over it 🫟). Outside, the world is screaming about the Delta Force raid in Caracas. They are talking about the blowtorches, the drones, and the sight of Nicolas Maduro being hauled out of his bunker in zip-ties. It is good TV. It is the kind of thing that makes people feel like justice is a fast car. But justice is not a fast car. It is a slow, rusty train. The explosion that rocked Venezuela on January 3, 2026, did not start with a soldier kicking down a door. It started six years ago, in a sterile room in Washington D.C., when a man named William Barr stood in front of a microphone. He was the Attorney General then. He looked at the camera and unsealed an indictment that accused a sitting president of turning his entire country into a drug cartel. That was the fuse. It just took six years to burn down to the powder. I have been digging thr...

The Party Is Over It is January 2, 2026. The snow in Crans-Montana is supposed to be white. Today, it feels grey. I have seen wars and I have seen riots. But there is something special about the stupidity of a nightclub fire. It makes me angry. It should make you angry too. Here is the hard truth. On New Year's Eve, at a fancy bar called La Constellation, 40 people died. They were young. They were happy. They were rich enough to be in a Swiss ski resort, drinking champagne. And then they were gone. Why? Because of a sparkler. A cheap, two-dollar firework stuck on top of a bottle of expensive wine. The reports are coming in fast. The police are saying "investigation pending." But I have watched the videos. You can find them online if you have the stomach for it. I do not recommend it. It shows a waiter walking through the crowd. The bottle is held high. The sparks are flying. It looks fun. Then the sparks hit the ceiling. And that i...
