Abilene LGBT Threat: When “Lock and Load” Becomes the Pride Parade Invitation
They say a threat is just a first draft of violence. Sometimes scribbled on social media, sometimes delivered with clicks and tags—but the message is the same: you are watched, you are vulnerable. In Abilene, Texas, one man apparently decided to turn that sentence into performance art, threatening LGBTQ+ parade participants only days before the

The Iowa Superintendent and the Deportation Squad
There’s a certain theater to American immigration enforcement. You can promise the nation you’ll go after gangs, cartels, hardened criminals, people who smuggle fentanyl by the ton. And then, one ordinary morning, you stage your victory lap by cuffing a school superintendent in Des Moines. Yes, a man who manages budgets, buses, and bell schedules

Apple Blinks at the Screen: When a $3 Trillion Company Gets Spooked by a TV Show
Apple has spent the last decade branding itself as the patron saint of courage.Courage to remove the headphone jack. Courage to sell you the same laptop three years running with one extra port.

The Bots Are Coming From Inside the House
We were warned about the robots. We were told they’d take our jobs, our cars, maybe our dating lives if someone perfected the silicone. What we weren’t prepared for was that they’d take our democracy. And not even in a cool, cinematic Skynet way—no, in the most humiliating way possible: by faking retweets and filling

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

Newsom vs. Grandpa Trump: California Declares a Code Red
A Rally Instead of a Requiem California Governor Gavin Newsom has finally embraced his destiny as the Democratic Party’s loudest hype man. Forget policy briefings or sleepy pressers—this week he staged something closer to a revival tent. A rally, a roast, and a roadmap rolled into one.

Hispanic Heritage Month Cancelled Due to Immigration Enforcement: Culture Meets Checkpoint
The Month That Wasn’t September 15 used to mark the start of Hispanic Heritage Month—a time for parades, mariachi, food festivals, and school assemblies pretending arroz con pollo is “cultural immersion.” This year, it marked something else entirely: postponements and cancellations. Chicago’s El Grito festival? Cancelled. Sacramento’s celebrations? Postponed. Charlotte’s events? Scrapped. CBS, AP, and

The Charlie Kirk Narrative Smells Like Yesterday’s Fox News Leftovers
Not a Conspiracy Theorist, Just a Smell Test Enthusiast I don’t wear tin foil hats. I don’t subscribe to newsletters about the Denver Airport being a Masonic portal to lizard people. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I follow the facts wherever they lead, even if they lead me to deeply inconvenient places like “Charlie
