Internet influencer Tommy "Nutz" Nuttzman (@after_the_uniform) shares a veteran's perspective on the modern polarized social-political environment. A self-described former MAGA advocate, he offers a critique of government influence in social bias, particularly in social and mainstream media, as a mechanism that divides citizens over *issues* instead of uniting them over *solutions.* He advocates seeking "truth," rather than moral validations of "right or wrong," even and especially when truth is uncomfortable. He also advocates that it is the individual's responsibility to be informed from multiple perspectives, rather than being swayed by partisan manipulation. His opinions are sometimes controversial, but he invites discourse online. You can find him on Instagram, TikTok, and other social media platforms.

In other international news, Ebola concerns are among the justifications for restricting visitor access to the US during World Cup events, which start today.
