The Star-Spangled Bot Farm: How Elon Accidentally Doxxed the “America First” Foreign Legion
There is a specific kind of schadenfreude that tastes like champagne mixed with battery acid, and on November 20, 2025, the internet drank deep from the cup. For years, we have been told that the “silent majority” is rising, that the roar of the MAGA movement is the organic, thundering voice of the forgotten American

Trump’s ICE Body Bag: Where the Amenities Are Tylenol and a Body Bag
The wind in the high desert of Victorville, California, blows with a specific, sand-blasting indifference. It strips the paint off cars and the hope off human beings with equal efficiency. In this desolate landscape sits the Adelanto ICE Processing Center, a facility that sounds like a place where one might go to renew a driver’s

The Black Box Breaks Open: Why OpenAI Can No longer Hide Behind the Magic Trick
For the last two years, OpenAI has not really been a technology company. It has been a theology.

The Broken Clock Finally Strikes Twelve: A Eulogy for the Marjorie Taylor Greene Era
It is a rare and disorienting experience to watch a arsonist suddenly grab a fire hose, but here we are.

The Art of the Self-Own: How the Redistricting “Arms Race” Became a National Slapstick Routine
There is a specific, distinct sound that ambition makes when it snaps under the weight of its own greed, and on November 18, 2025, that sound echoed all the way from a federal courtroom in El Paso to the panic rooms of the Governor’s Mansion in Austin, before ricocheting westward to slap the smugness right

Trump and Putin’s The Art of the Steal: How a Condo Developer and a Kremlin Banker Just “Solved” Ukraine
The modern history of diplomacy is usually written in treaties, summits, and carefully worded communiqués. But the history of the Trump administration is written in term sheets.

Mike Johnson’s Tears: Mourning the Loss of a Perfectly Good Trumped Up Epstein Cover-Up
The political class has spent months trying to perform an elaborate magic trick: make the entirety of the federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein disappear. They called the push for public disclosure a “hoax,” then a partisan attack, then a distraction. Yet, the Epstein Files Transparency Act survived their calculated attempts at erasure, sailing through the

The Map Is Not a Bloodsport, But They Brought a Chainsaw Anyway: A Texas Takedown
The quiet, un-televised cruelty of American political mechanics often hides in plain sight, tucked away in the arcana of cartography and statute. It is, perhaps, fitting that the quietest, most surgical rebuke to Texas Republican political dominance did not come from a grand moral proclamation or a sweeping popular wave. It came instead from a

The Bone Saw and the Trump Red Carpet: How to Wash an Autocrat in Public
The spectacle of a state visit, under ordinary circumstances, is meant to signal diplomatic strength and mutual respect. Under Donald Trump, however, it becomes a transactional performance, a public washing machine designed to scrub away the stains of documented atrocities.

The Trump Justice Department That Forgot What Justice Means
When a federal judge starts using phrases like “disturbing pattern” and “extraordinary remedy,” you know the plot has wandered into banana republic territory with better-funded lawyers. There are weeks in American political life when the news arrives in polite increments, like a series of thoughtfully placed postcards. And then there are the weeks when the
