America's Verdict - IM

Dec 9, 2024 | im1776.com | Christopher F. Rufo |Samuel Finlay |Thomas Millary |Adam Winfield

A New York City courtroom today issued a stunning verdict: Daniel Penny, a veteran US marine who restrained a threatening homeless subway rider named Jordan Neely, who later died in police custody, is not guilty of involuntary manslaughter or criminal negligence. And the verdict was not just about Penny. Make no mistake: the Black Lives Matter era of “restorative justice” is over and the real spirit of justice is returning to America.
Going Through It? You’re Not Alone, Brother

Nov 23, 2024 | medium.com | Adam Winfield

Adam Winfield·Follow3 min read·--Photo by Derek Thomson on UnsplashAs a parent of young children, my world revolves around them and trying to raise them up to be better humans than myself. As I get closer to 40, I find myself questioning my purpose and, selfishly, what it is that is in this for me. This thought process is not one that I am proud of but it is there.
Are you happy with how you are showing up?

Adam Winfield·Follow2 min read·--Photo by Szilvia Basso on UnsplashFor a good majority of my life, I was stagnant and complacent and generally just rolled with the punches that life through at me — there was no goals and no mission. That was reflected in how I felt both physically and mentally. I was tired all the time, I was overweight, I couldn’t tie my boots without working up a sweat — it was not how I wanted to show up.
Take The Good With The Bad

Aug 20, 2024 | medium.com | Adam Winfield

These days, I am trying to add a bunch of running to my weeks with the main reason not being that I enjoy running or that I enjoy the perceived running lifestyle. My overweight ass has been getting into running recently because it is an efficient way to get steps in and a great way to improve my cardio health. In fact, I am already noticing my VO2 Max increasing significantly.
Fake It Til You Make It

Aug 7, 2024 | medium.com | Adam Winfield

I must say that there’s not a day that goes by where I’m not humbled by life and that I don’t learn something new. When I started this health journey back in December of last year, I had an OK idea of what to do in order for me to lose weight and get in better shape but I was lazy and unmotivated. If I am honest, I still have days where I am lazy and unmotivated — I think that is just a part of life.

After a whirlwind past couple of weeks, with us heading to see Zach Bryan in Detroit, coming home for the Special Forces Challenge and spending a few days in Nashville - it was so nice to enjoy a relaxing weekend with family and friends this past weekend. On Saturday we made a last minute call to pack up and drive to Munising, MI for the afternoon which is a 2 hour drive.

For those who are familiar with what I have been up to recently, you know that I participated in the Community Strong Special Forces Challenge a couple of weeks back and it is something that I have been actively training for. This challenge was a 7 hour endurance challenge that myself and 60 others participated in on a Saturday Evening.
What Held Me Back?

Mar 16, 2024 | medium.com | Adam Winfield

I’ve mentioned this before, but for years I have known that alcohol was one of the key things that was holding me back in my health. I knew I needed to change but I was afraid of going against the grain. Like I said, drinking was how I socialized. When I was drinking, and was around people who weren’t — I had a tendency of viewing those people as judgmental or better than the rest of us.
In Defense of "Anons"

Jul 11, 2023 | im1776.com | Mark Granza |Daniel Miller |Adam Winfield |Samuel Finlay

Why Jordan Peterson is Wrong to call for Restrictions on Anonymity Should Anons reveal themselves, or be forced to reveal themselves? In response to Elon Musk tweeting on Sunday that Twitter will now “protect anonymity,” Canadian psychologist and YouTube megastar Jordan Peterson, among others, criticized the decision and claimed that online anonymity enables “Dark Tetrad [personality] types.”This debate, of course, is nothing new. Nor is Peterson’s critique.
