Hello 🦋, I'm an archaeologist & YouTuber
My agenda is clear: fill the internet with #RealArchaeology and oppose pseudoscience
I'm currently writing a book about Atlantis, analyzing sheep teeth from Knossos, teaching archaeological theory, and filming the ultimate video takedown of Graham Hancock

"When it happens, Republicans will object (and you can only imagine the meltdown Trump himself will have on Truth Social). The response Dems give should be simple: *Too bad. We have the power now.* A strong message must be sent to the country and future generations that Trump will not be honored."
Why every vestige of Trump must be torn down
He's trying to create a physical legacy. The moment he's out of power, it has to be smashed to bits.
