America’s Great Sleepwalk Amongst Fascism: Snoring Through the Funeral of Democracy
The first rule of dying democracies is that nobody notices until the casket is already lowered into the ground. By then, the guests are too busy checking their phones to clap, or to care, or to even remember whose funeral they’re attending. America, it turns out, is the kind of family that shows up late

Pam Bondi’s Great Stonewall Revue: How to Say Nothing for Hours While Redecorating the Constitution
On October 7, 2025, Attorney General Pam Bondi finally got her Senate Judiciary oversight debut. The cameras rolled. The senators fanned themselves like gossipy dowagers. Bondi smiled that Florida-gated-community smile—the one that says I have seen the HOA bylaws and I intend to enforce them with prejudice. For hours, she spoke in what can only

Republicans Know How to Win, Democrats Know How to Lose, Let’s Steal the Playbook and Keep Our Souls
If American politics were a sport, Republicans would be the team that shows up in matching uniforms, drills the exact same play for three seasons, and then executes it with a discipline usually reserved for marching bands and cults. Democrats, by contrast, would be the club team made up of brilliant but argumentative grad students

Why “Be Civil” Is a Trap and How to Reclaim Argument Without Letting Authoritarians Win
There is a comfortable version of civic medicine that liberals love to prescribe: a warm sermon about niceness, a gentle chiding to turn down the volume, a plea to swap Twitter tirades for polite coffee with people you secretly loathe. It sounds virtuous, and in a vacuum it would be. But these are not normal

Seven Holes and a Federal Lie: How ICE’s Brighton Park Shootout Exposed No “10 Car Attack”
On October 6, 2025, the Chicago Sun-Times reported what you might call a plot twist, if the plot weren’t someone’s bleeding arm. A federal magistrate judge in Chicago, Heather McShain, rejected prosecutors’ demand to keep Marimar Martinez, 30, and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, 21, in jail while they await trial. Why? Because the government’s story

Where Bullets Meet the Capitol: A Reconstruction of Montgomery’s Crossfire
In Montgomery, the night’s quiet cracks open, and gunfire bursts across Bibbs and Commerce, less than a mile from the state Capitol. Within minutes, chaos reigns: fourteen shot, including minors, two dead—one a teenager, one a mother. The city’s heart, at its most public junction, becomes a battlefield. It’s a tragedy with all the frightening

Pentagon bypass 2.0: Trump’s Guard Swap to Portland, Court Orders, and a Coup in Blue States
Every once in a while, power shifts so quickly it looks like smoke. On October 5, 2025, reports broke that President Donald Trump had moved to federalize and send out-of-state Guard troops—specifically from California—to Portland, Oregon, circumventing a court order and two governors’ objections. Federal spokesmen claimed 200–300 California National Guard would deploy to protect

Elon Musk Demands ‘Cancel Netflix’—Because Inclusion Is the New Taboo
Elon Musk, the self-styled “King of Free Speech,” is no stranger to drama. Yet on October 2, 2025, he lit a fuse that smelled less like free-speech fireworks and more like cultural annihilation. Via his X platform, with 227 million followers watching, Musk called to “Cancel Netflix.” His target: a clip from Dead End: Paranormal

The Reboot Nobody Ordered: Make America Sick Again
It is 2025, and America has managed to drag an old virus out of retirement like a boy band on a nostalgia tour. Not the fun kind of reboot—no slick streaming revival, no “Measles: The Musical.” This is a disease revival, unwanted, unnecessary, and entirely predictable. The CDC’s latest report confirms 1,544 measles cases so

MAGA is a Domestic Terrorist Idealogy: Fires, Bullets, and Quiet Denials
A Sunday service turned into a nightmare. In Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, a man drove a pickup into a Mormon chapel, sprung open fire with a rifle mid-worship, doused the building with gasoline, and watched as flame and lead collided. The local police rushed in. Within minutes he was dead. The dead and wounded, survivors
