Trump Tariff Tantrum: How “Make It Here” Became “Pay More There”
It’s a strange feeling to live inside a macroeconomic cautionary tale while your grocery receipt doubles as documentation. From North Carolina’s Walmarts to Oregon’s farmers’ markets, the new national pastime isn’t baseball—it’s comparing the price of eggs like it’s insider trading. Somewhere between the auto aisle and the frozen section, America’s grand experiment in “decouple-by-diktat”

Shutdown, Smear, & Scapegoat: How GOP Messaging Became the Crisis
There’s something theatrically grotesque about a nation grinding to a halt while its communications director snarls into a microphone that the party in control of half the electorate is really a coalition of “Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals.” On October 17, 2025, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt breathed those words on Fox

Artillery Over the 405: America’s Longest Traffic Jam Turns Into a Military Parade
There’s something quintessentially American about the sight of artillery fire streaking across a highway full of Teslas. It’s not just the juxtaposition of power and paralysis, of steel ambition and rubberized helplessness—it’s that we managed to turn an interstate into a battlefield metaphor without even noticing. On October 18, 2025, California drivers got front-row seats

The Church of Selective Justice: Saint George of Santos and the Gospel of Trumpian Mercy
There are miracles, and then there are Trump-era miracles — the kind that make you question if God outsourced justice to a reality show producer. George Santos, the man who lied about everything from his résumé to his existence as a mammal capable of shame, just walked out of federal prison after less than three

The Lines We Draw: Trump’s Supreme Court Decides Racism Needs A Reboot
Every few years, America remembers that it is technically a democracy, dusts off its maps, and starts drawing lines like a toddler with too many crayons and not enough supervision. This week, that coloring session moved to the Supreme Court, where the justices heard oral arguments in the latest Voting Rights Act showdown out of

TRUMP ADMINISTRATION GOES CRUISING: AMERICA’S NEW WAR CRIME REALITY SHOW
Some presidents get monuments. Some get wars. Donald Trump just got a franchise — Operation Sea Control, the world’s first state-sponsored reality series starring the CIA, the Caribbean, and a flotilla of very confused smugglers. The premise: Washington authorizes covert operations in Venezuela, calls it “freedom,” and then releases clips of blown-up boats to prove

Shutdown Theater: When Trump Decided the Government Works Better Without Workers
It takes a special kind of government to run a shutdown like a start-up.A federal judge just told the Trump administration—again—that firing thousands of workers in the middle of a shutdown isn’t “streamlining.” It’s illegal. But if you squint hard enough and forget about laws, ethics, and human beings, you can almost admire the logic.

When You Fire the Weatherman, Don’t Act Surprised When the Sky Kills You
America loves a good disaster, as long as it happens far enough away to make for cinematic B-roll. The Bering Sea monster that shredded western Alaska this week—one part typhoon, one part apocalypse—checked all the right boxes: 100-mile-per-hour winds, a record storm surge, homes swallowed whole, hundreds displaced, one confirmed death, and a governor insisting

The Young Republicans Just Invented “Accountability Theater,” and the Curtain’s Already Falling
For decades, the Republican Party has reassured America that its future is in good hands—steady, business-casual hands wrapped around a Bud Light and a copy of Atlas Shrugged. Then came the RESTOREYR WAR ROOM leak, 2,900 pages of digital sewage proving that the future of the GOP is, in fact, a racist group chat with

No Kings Day: America’s Most Patriotic Middle Finger
The founders would have loved this. Not the powdered wig cosplay or the “Don’t Tread on Me” truck decals that confuse tyranny with speed limits—but the idea that millions of Americans could, in 2025, look at a would-be monarch and collectively say: nope. This October 18, No Kings Day returns. And if June was the
