Trump Calls Fentanyl a Weapon of Mass Destruction, and the Iraq War Echo Starts Clearing Its Throat
When you rename a crisis, you also rename what you’re allowed to do about it. If you ever want to watch a government change the shape of reality without changing the underlying problem, pay attention to vocabulary. Not the boring vocabulary, not the kind that lives in briefing binders, but the kind that arrives with

My Favorite TV Shows of 2025, Ranked by Vibes, Emotional Damage, and How Fast I Hit “Next Episode”
No particular order, because ranking art is how streaming apps turn joy into spreadsheets. Every year, television looks at America’s collective attention span, flicks it on the forehead, and says, “Come here, I made you something complicated.” In 2025, it felt like the medium finally admitted what we all already know, most of us are

Trump and MAGA’s Fake Outrage Over Charlie Kirk Rhetoric Takes Center Stage Amidst Tragic Loss of Rob Reiner
A national treasure, a grieving family, and a president who still thinks empathy is for losers. There are certain moments when a country quietly tests its own spine. Not in a grand, cinematic way, not with flags and speeches, but in the small, practical way a human being looks at another human being’s grief and

The Game Awards 2025 and the Night One Game Ate the Stage
Eight trophies, one gravitational center, and an industry that briefly convinced itself this was destiny rather than appetite. The Game Awards 2025 unfolded like a formal ceremony that accidentally wandered into a single studio’s victory party and then politely decided not to leave. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 did not simply win big. It became the

ISIS “Comes Back” Again and Trump Administration Pretends It’s a Plot Twist
Three Americans dead near Palmyra, serious retaliation promised, and the same old lie that a victory lap is the same as an ending. An ISIS-linked ambush near Palmyra in central Syria hit a joint U.S. and Syrian partner movement and killed two U.S. service members and an American civilian interpreter. Three additional U.S. troops were

Congress Drops Epstein Party Photos Like It’s a Playlist and Calls It Oversight
A small, redacted photo dump, a much larger unseen archive, and a political system that treats transparency like a weapon and privacy like an afterthought. House Democrats on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee just did what Congress does best in an election-era adrenaline rush: released a limited batch of images from a vastly larger

Hillary, Kamala, Pelosi, Elizabeth, AOC, Klobuchar, and Jasmine Crockett: Left’s Favorite Sport Is Nitpicking Strong Women
The résumé is flawless, the vibes are “off,” and somehow the safe choice is always some guy who thinks subcommittee work is a type of sandwich. The modern American left has a recurring ritual that looks like accountability from far away and feels like sabotage up close. It begins when an accomplished woman steps forward

Indiana Redistricting Meltdown: Trump Pressures GOP and the Map Refuses to Move
A rare intraparty “no” lands in the middle of the national gerrymander arms race, and suddenly everyone is pretending they just love local control again. Indiana’s Statehouse spent this week acting like a polite Midwestern family hosting a reunion while a brawl happens behind the deviled eggs. The fight was over House Bill 1032, a

The Remake is Always Worse: Why the War on Venezuela is Just the Iraq Script with an Orange Trump Filter
We have seen this movie before, and spoiler alert: the ending involves a lot of sand, a lot of blood, and absolutely zero refunds. The American military machine has always had a flair for the cinematic, but the recent seizure of the oil tanker Skipper off the coast of Venezuela felt less like a naval

The Freedom to Go Broke: Republicans Unveil Their Plan to Liberate You From Affordable Healthcare
The GOP has finally found a solution to the problem of people having health insurance. It involves taking the money away and giving you a coupon for a savings account you cannot afford to fund. There is a specific kind of grim comedy that defines American healthcare policy. It is the comedy of a man
