    A Royal Circus, a Domestic Inquisition, and the Death of Late Night: Trump’s September Trifecta

    The Pageant in Windsor There’s no such thing as a small Trump visit. Not when the U.K. rolls out Windsor pomp for a man who treats Buckingham Palace like a casino floor. King Charles III, looking every bit the monarch who once had to weather tabloids about tampon fantasies, gamely escorted Donald Trump through ceremonial

    When Science Meets Conspiracy: The CDC’s New Vaccine Variety Hour

    If you ever wanted to watch the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reinvent itself as a cross between a daytime talk show and a flat-earth convention, congratulations: September 18, 2025 delivered. Picture it—a fluorescent-lit conference room in Atlanta, where a panel once devoted to quiet, data-heavy immunization schedules has been rebranded as the CDC’s

    The American Love Affair With ARs: From Domestic Disputes to Funeral Processions

    A Familiar Script Another day, another “isolated incident” that looks exactly like every other one. A young man, a domestic violence record, a weapon designed for war, and a police force walking into a house in North Codorus Township. The ending, like all the others, is a chalk outline in triplicate. Three detectives dead, two

    Merit, Excellence, and a Half-Billion Dollar Shuffle: The Education Department’s New Hunger Games

    The Department of Education has always been a strange beast—part accountant, part social engineer, part referee for our endless cultural blood sports. On September 15, it decided to moonlight as a pit boss, shuffling chips from one table to another, all while insisting this was about “merit and excellence.” Translation: somebody’s walking out of the

    Pam Bondi Declares War on the First Amendment—Then Googles What It Actually Says

You’d think she’d have at least skimmed it once in law school, maybe while flipping through her notes on “How Not to Start a Constitutional Crisis.” And yet here we are.

    Welcome to the Eye Economy Mark Zuckerberg took the stage at Meta Connect in Menlo Park and unveiled his latest plan to colonize the human face.

    ANTIFA: The Shadowy Organization That Doesn’t Exist (But Still Lives Rent-Free in GOP Heads)

    America has a long history of misunderstanding things on purpose. Evolution? “Just a theory.” Climate change? “Maybe the sun’s just in a mood.” The First Amendment? “It means I can say the n-word at work without getting fired.” And now, the most recent, most hysterical misunderstanding: ANTIFA. Yes, ANTIFA—our country’s favorite boogeyman, the clandestine, hyper-coordinated,

    First They Came for Free Speech: Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, and America’s Fascist Curtain Call

    Picture this: you’re sitting on your couch, remote in hand, waiting for Jimmy Kimmel to make a joke about Marjorie Taylor Greene’s latest word salad. Instead, you’re greeted by a rerun of one of their other really shitty shows—not because ABC thinks pratfalls are funnier than politics, but because the Federal Communications Commission, under Brendan

    The Return of Red Scares: Trump and Vance Turn Grief Into Witch Hunt
