"Democracy Under Seige" is a 55-minute documentary released on May 1, 2026 on Substack. During the short window, May 1 thru May 5, it can be viewed for free. A free press upholds democracy by holding power accountable, informing the reading public, speaking truth to power, and supporting democratic values. The U.S.A. in 2026 is an authoritarian nation, controlled by oligarchs who protect their white Christian male supremacist ideals. Jeff Bezo's takeover of The Washington Post is only one example of this tragedy.
The documentary also explores recent timelines during which the Voting Rights and women's healthcare freedoms are ended.
