Authors
The writers behind this newsletter.
I'm Allison Gill - Mueller, She Wrote on Bluesky - CEO of MSW Media, and host of The Daily Beans, UnJustified, and Cleanup on Aisle 45 podcasts.
I'm a history professor interested in the contrast between image and reality in American politics. I believe in American democracy, despite its frequent failures.
The Left Hook is a thoroughly opinionated and biased intellectual playground for people who enjoy political, cultural, and religious hot takes without corporate censorship and nonsense centrism.
The fastest growing independent news network in the world. We cover breaking news, politics, law and more. We are unapologetically pro-democracy. Because TRUTH is golden.
