Many of you may be familiar with the #Walkaway movement, which was started by Brandon Straka to document (and encourage) people to walk away from the Democratic party.Speaking Wrong At The Right Time is a reader-supported publication.

I walked away with the PUMA (Party Unity My Ass) crowd, in 2008. I have zero regrets but I do wish the events that led to the PUMA movement weren't forgotten.
They are a key part of understanding the last 50 years of US politics.
Great insight as usual. It’s remarkable the trajectory your life and career have taken in such a short time. You have certainly earned it. Your principled unyielding approach and using your life with all of its scars and regrets as a force for introspection and making positive changes is inspiring and admirable. I see bigger and better things on the horizon for you.
I noticed you were listed as a signatory of the Westminster Declaration. You are in very good company with many prestigious academics, well known journalists and influential voices that need to be heard. Congratulations!
I track with your journey as well. It just took me longer to catch on to the media betrayal of what I learned in J school. I think this is the perfect interview to share with my friends. Thanks! I also asked them to read The Myth of Left and Right. Love to know if others think it makes complete sense but also blows your mind. Still trying to reconcile it.
Adam, you are an incredibly thoughtful person. Letting your morals guide your political thought is highly commendable, not often do you hear that expressed so openly. By posting this video you have crossed the divide to a mature adult. Blessing to you and your family.
Thank you for sharing; I’ve learned much from hearing your perspective. You are a remarkable man; a real thought leader.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I'm just trying my best to spread a positive message and use common sense.

Thank you so much for the kind words and thank you for noticing me being part of the declaration.
Yeah, a lot has changed in my life and there are more things coming soon...
I don't blame you, i left the democratic party in 2007 after they betrayed me and the anti-war community.

Never give up your independent thought!
