(Mission Statement)
Hi. I'm Nikos.
And I'm not here to sell you on anything. I'm not here to convince you of anything. I'm not here to fearmonger.
I'm not a journalist, I'm not an expert, I'm just alarmed of the future that seems to be headed our way. I'm concerned, a little afraid, and a little angry.
This Newsletter is not about conspiracy theories, but it isn't about reassuring you that everything is fine, either. Because it isn't.
This newsletter is about me speaking my mind publicly. It's a project about curiosity, about history, about unraveling the stories the media isn't giving enough (or proper) exposure to...
It's a project about connecting dots and asking questions.
The right questions. The ones that way too many people seem to have stopped asking.
Questions like:
- "What's actually going on?"
- "How did we get here?"
- "Where are we headed next?".
I launched The Regime Files on June 14, 2025, and honestly - it already felt late.
But that's not when I started my research. By the time this newsletter went live, I had already spent months gathering sources and taking notes - hundreds of pages' worth. I just delayed the decision to publish them. Until now.
I started all this because I felt like I was watching history unravel in real time.
And once again, it seemed to be repeating itself.
The U.S. - and by extension, the world - is shifting.
Authoritarian ideas are packaged as "refreshing", "efficient".
Tech billionaires and hardline ideologues are being painted as political innovators and philosophers. Subtle political shifts are being dismissed as noise, when they might actually be warning signs.
And the world... largely doesn't seem to care.
People don't wanna discuss politics; they shrug it off.
"The U.S. isn't going to fall this easily".
Maybe not, but I've been watching cracks form for a while now. And not enough people are talking about them.
I've already spent a lot of time researching and documenting the changes I've been witnessing, now, I'll be doing it publicly.
Because we may be closer to collapse than people initially thought.
And people are still fast asleep.
So here we are.
I'll do the talking.
I'll share what I've found.
I'll show you the patterns I see.
I'll draw parallels.
I'll give you sources, context, explanations and my opinion... So you can form your own.
What to Expect
Here's what you'll find in this newsletter:
- Deep dives on topics like Project 2025, The Big Beautiful Bill etc.
- Breakdowns of political power plays, legislation and even court cases.
- Commentary on the role of Big Tech & Silicon Valley in U.S. and global politics.
- Reflections on propaganda, media manipulation, and censorship.
- Occasionally: panic, bad jokes, and maybe some memes.
If you want clickbait, quick takes, or political fan-fiction, this ain't it.
I'll never ask you to trust me. In fact, I encourage you to not trust me, or anyone else online. Fact-check me, challenge me, read my sources and do your own digging. My only goal here is to lay out what I'm seeing, reading, hearing and thinking, and to urge you to do the same.
I'll make mistakes, and when I do, I'll make sure I highlight them, correct them and be upfront and honest about them. I'm not here to build a brand. I'm here to leave a paper trail.
Later in the weekend, I will be publishing my first official post:
"What I Wish More People Knew About U.S. Politics Right Now".
I'll link it here once it's live.
Soon after, I'm planning to go into a deep dive explainer into Project 2025 - the scariest government transition plan no one in your group chat is talking about (yet).
It will tie in with the previous post, and start painting the image that Donald J. Trump is following the Dictator's playbook, the same one that many before him have successfully used to rise to power and dismantle democracies.
I hope you'll come along for the ride.

P.S. I don’t do comments — I don’t have the time to moderate them — but I do read and try to reply to emails.
