MAGA Lets Their Racism Show Towards Bad Bunny: Puerto Rico is part of the United States idiots
Let me start with the obvious: Puerto Rico is part of the United States. If you keep forgetting that, maybe read a map. But that fact seems to blow open minds like a shock collar when the MAGA brigade—provoked by Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl headline—whips out the same ugly refrains: “He’s not American.” “Latin takeover.”…

Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban: The Divorce Heartbreak Tour We Never Wanted
I don’t know who put “Public Divorce” on this year’s marquee, but somehow it cast Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban as its centerpiece act—the tragic stars of a love story we all believed in. Their separation announcement hit like a meteor strike: stunning beauty in motion frozen mid-dance, two icons unraveling in public while fans…

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…

Fear and Long Guns on Michigan Avenue
Chicago has always thrived on theater. Jazz clubs, improv stages, opera houses, the permanent farce of city politics—this is a town that knows spectacle. But nothing quite prepared the Magnificent Mile for the latest federal roadshow: dozens of Border Patrol agents in tactical helmets, body armor, and long guns parading up Michigan Avenue like they’d…

Degrees of Separation: Michelle’s Princeton-Harvard Reality vs. Melania’s Slovenian Fairy Tale
America has always been a nation obsessed with résumés, transcripts, and whether or not you really sat through Econ 101 without crying into a vending machine Pop-Tart. But somehow, in our supposedly merit-based society, the woman who actually clawed her way through Princeton University and Harvard Law School—graduating with honors while juggling race, class, and…

When the Supreme Court Pressed Snooze on $5 Billion: Democracy Aid Goes on Hiatus
On September 26, 2025, in a terse one-sentence emergency order, the U.S. Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to keep nearly $5 billion in congressionally appropriated foreign aid frozen—overturning a lower-court injunction and giving institutional blessing to what amounts to a year-end “pocket rescission” strategy. The effect: delay the money’s disbursement until it expires on…

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…

Government Shutdown or Trump’s Hostage Crisis? Why a Blank Check Is Signing Off on Fascism
Shutdowns are the cheapest trick in Washington’s self-destructive playbook. When the lights dim and federal workers line up for IOUs instead of paychecks, when parks shutter and inspectors vanish, it’s not governance—it’s hostage theater. And here we are again, staring down another government shutdown, a ritual that has grown so common it has its own…

Watergate’s Dismal Sequel: Indicting Comey in Broad Daylight
There was a time when “indicting a former FBI Director” would have been the kind of storyline you read in paperback thrillers at the airport newsstand, usually involving shadowy double agents, a safe house in Prague, and a protagonist who knows too much. Now it’s just Thursday in Alexandria, Virginia. A federal grand jury has…
