Is America Replaying 1930s Germany? Trump, Fascism, and the Creep We Pretend Not to See
I remember sitting in history class as a kid and staring at the photos they always brought out for the chapter on Germany, the ones with the flags and the straight lines and the faces that were either rapturous or empty, and thinking how did they let this happen. I was convinced there must have

When Democrats Are “Terrorists, Criminals & Aliens”: The White House’s Latest Dehumanization Exercise In Rhetoric
In the new normal of American politics, dehumanization is no longer a slip—it’s a strategy. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt recently told Fox News, and amplified across social platforms, that the Democratic Party’s “main constituency” is made up of “Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals.” The line exploded across headlines and digital chaos,

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

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.

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

Statehood for the States That Aren’t: A Hypothetical Love Letter to Democracy’s Participation Trophy
There’s a certain kind of American optimism that only emerges when we start talking about statehood, the same bright-eyed, civics-class sparkle that insists representation is a moral right and not a political chess move. But let’s be honest—if every U.S. territory and D.C. were granted statehood tomorrow, the fireworks wouldn’t be about democracy fulfilled. They’d

$2 Trillion in Market Value and Trump’s Truth Social Post Walk Into a Bar
If the stock market had a safe word, it would’ve screamed it yesterday. In a single trading session, nearly $2 trillion in U.S. market value evaporated after President Donald Trump decided to use Truth Social like it was a nuclear launch console, announcing a 100% tariff on all Chinese imports and tighter export controls.

Outbreak of the RFK Jr. and Russ Vought Virus: No CDC Employees Left To Treat It
If you ever needed proof that America has officially become a satire written by a malfunctioning chatbot, behold: the CDC accidentally fired itself during a government shutdown. Not metaphorically. Not “downsized for efficiency.” Literally—hundreds of our nation’s top epidemiologists, lab chiefs, and field investigators got layoff emails mid-pandemic prep because someone in Washington pressed “Send

When the Speaker Calls Protestors “Anti-America”—and Then Wonders Why Democracy Is Dead
At dawn on October 10, 2025, House Speaker Mike Johnson went on Fox News and denounced the upcoming No Kings rally as a “hate America” event. He claimed it would be populated by the “pro-Hamas wing” and “ANTIFA people,” accused Democrats of selling T-shirts to support it, and ominously warned that the government would stay

Portland, We Have a Problem: Trump’s “War on Antifa” and the Authoritarian Dress Rehearsal
Somewhere in a Pentagon sub-basement or a Mar-a-Lago group chat, someone must have said, “What if we just did 2020 again—but meaner?” Because here we are, October 2025, and President Donald Trump has decided to reboot his greatest hits tour: the “War on Antifa.” It’s like the “War on Drugs,” but with fewer facts and
