The Constitution doesn’t give me rights — it protects the God-given ones I was born with. One … Read more
Tools, Fire, and the Standard I Live By
Tools, Fire, and the Standard I Live By I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I work. How I move. How I lead. And yeah, I’ve had help along the way — tools, tech, AI even. But don’t get it twisted: none of this works without me behind the wheel. I’ve always been this … Read more
