Epstein: Trump Has His Own Email Problem and I Think I Hear Hillary Laughing
THE CORPSE WHO CALLED THE PRESIDENT A DOG There is something exquisitely American about needing twenty thousand emails from a dead pedophile to state the obvious, which is that Donald Trump, self appointed innocence mascot of the MAGA Republic, has never once in his life been anywhere near a situation without lying about it. And

End ACA Protections Means Cancer Care Becomes Optional And Bills Explode
Translate the slogan into math and law, and the promise to “send the money to the people” becomes a coupon for chaos with the patient protections ripped off the box. The pitch sounds generous if you hear it from far away. Cut out the insurance companies, send the money straight to you, terminate the bad

Trump Says “Everything Is Fine” As The Cost Of Living Sky Rockets And Jobs Disappear
When reality raises the bill, you can gaslight the country or govern for it. Doing both is not a plan. The country knows the difference between a sales pitch and a receipt. We have been stuck in the pitch again, the kind where a leader tries to hypnotize prices into behaving by announcing that they

November 7th: This Day In Herstory, This Decade in Fury
There is a habit in American storytelling that treats progress like a moving walkway in an airport. Step on, move forward, arrive at the gate of equality with time for a coffee.

Democrats Tuesday Night Lesson: The Cure For Whisper Politics
If Democrats want to govern, they have to stop apologizing for oxygen, pick fights they can win in public, scrap the procedural choke points on purpose, and brag until the story sticks.

The Dick Cheney Legacy: When Power, Privilege and Paradox Collide
At 84, Dick Cheney leaves us a blueprint of power run amok, and a side note on gay rights that doesn’t redeem the wreckage. There is a kind of irony that follows the news of Dick Cheney’s death in 2025 like an aftershock: the man who helped expand the presidency’s power, condone torture, harden the

Trump Broke America in 2015 and She Never Healed: Your Decade in One Grim Timeline.
Grief and fury arrived together, like relatives who cannot stand each other but share a last name. One sits with a box of tissues and tells you to breathe. The other opens a window and says jump or move. I remember the moment the country broke, not as metaphor but as sound, a brittle snap

Break the Glass, Save the House: A Field Manual for Democrats Who Are Tired of Being the Only Adults in a Burning Room
There is a moment in every family crisis when the responsible sibling realizes that being responsible is not the same thing as being effective. You can tidy while the kitchen burns. You can organize receipts while the roof caves in. You can stand there with your binder of excellent plans and watch a cousin rewire

How to Nuke a Rule: Trump, the Filibuster, and the Illusion of Process
When Donald Trump takes to Truth Social to explain constitutional procedure, it’s like watching a raccoon perform heart surgery. The confidence is unmatched, the tools are wrong, and yet somehow half the country insists he’s reinventing medicine. This week, Trump posted what might be his most nakedly authoritarian policy demand to date: “Republicans must use

Trump White House Halloween You Can’t Unsee: Voldemort, Maleficent, and the Budget Ring of Power
Under the glitter and smoke, the costumes translate into deregulation, propaganda, and cuts that land on real people. There are holidays that ask for reverence, others that ask for ritual. Halloween asks for honesty. Put the thing you want on your face and watch the room tell you who you are. At the White House,
