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

If MAGA thinks the New Pope is Woke, Wait Till They Read About Jesus
Picture this: the White House is stressed, Chicago is festering under federal patrols, Republicans are fighting over funding bills, and in strolls Pope Leo XIV—America’s first pontiff—to disrupt the script. His declaration is simple and seismic: being “pro-life” cannot exempt cruelty toward immigrants. To sanction inhumane migration policy, he says, is to undercut life itself.

Being Good at Goodbye
The hardest skill I ever learned was not empathy or leadership or writing a book. It was goodbye. Goodbye is the only thing I’ve been allowed to master. It’s the only certificate hanging on the wall. Some people collect diplomas; I collect exits. I don’t mean the cinematic goodbye—the one where a person drives off

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

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

Tariff Tsunami: Trump’s Import Spike Crushes Farms, Homes & Health
It is not hyperbole to say that on one cheerful afternoon in late September, President Trump rolled out a tariff package that feels like a slow-motion economic apocalypse. Effective October 1, the administration slapped a 100 percent tariff on pharmaceutical drugs, 50 percent on kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities, 30 percent on upholstered furniture, and

The Sniper, the Spin, and the Smell Test in Dallas
The truth is that political violence is always a tragedy. That should not need disclaiming, but in our era of algorithmic outrage, you practically have to lead with a notarized certificate of sincerity before you dare analyze an event. So let’s start there: what happened at the Dallas ICE field office was horrific. One detainee

United We Scroll: 100 Things We All Secretly Agree On That Democrats Actually Campaign On While Republicans Pretend Don’t Exist
Every morning, cable news assures us that America is a house divided, a republic hanging by a thread, two tribes locked in a forever war where a neighbor’s yard sign is the moral equivalent of Pearl Harbor. Turn on Fox News and you’ll learn Democrats are Satan’s personal interns. Flip over to MSNBC and Republicans

Trump Gives His Expert Medical Advice on Tylenol
On September 22, 2025, the White House did something most of us reserve for Facebook comment threads and extended family group chats: it held a medical symposium based entirely on vibes. There, under the grand chandeliers, President Donald J. Trump—flanked by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.—announced that the real culprit behind autism might not
