    When MAGA Meets Mellow: The Day the GOP Declared War on Weed and Lost a Turning Point Influencer to the Void

    Nothing says ideological clarity like Mitch McConnell banning hemp while a Turning Point USA ambassador swears off voting because Dad’s gummies are now contraband. Political eras usually end with a whimper. Occasionally they end with a thunderclap. And every now and then, they collapse in on themselves like a dying star made of irony, grievance,

    From Gaza Clips to Nazi TikTok: How the Algorithm Funnels Kids to White Nationalism

    When Tucker Carlson sits down for a warm, fireside-vibe chat with Nick Fuentes and the discourse acts shocked, maybe the real scandal is how quickly the algorithm now ushers young people from “criticizing a government” to “maybe Jews don’t belong in America.” Tucker Carlson has always been something of a political weather vane, albeit the

    America’s New Hunger Games Begins, and the Prize Is Permission To Eat

    Trump calls it “One Big Beautiful Bill,” but the only thing getting beautified is the balance sheet Congress cares about more than hungry families. The thing about austerity is that it never arrives dressed as cruelty. It shows up in a blazer, smiles politely, talks about discipline, and promises to fix the books. It nods

    Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene Find Out That MAGA is Turning Out To Be Frankenstein’s Monster

    Marjorie Taylor Greene built the flamethrower, aimed it for years, and is now stunned to discover it works in every direction. There is a particular sound that occurs when a political movement devours one of its own. It is not dramatic. It is not operatic. It is not even loud. It is a soft, wet

    Verizon Shrinks 20% of Workforce Because Economy is Booming

    A corporate efficiency makeover that looks suspiciously like a disappearing act. The thing about telecom giants is that they love to talk about connection, yet the real connective tissue of their business is the quiet thrum of payroll software calculating who will still have health insurance by the time quarterly earnings hit the wire. Verizon,

    Megyn Kelly Goes Full Pedophile Protector For Trump

    When redefining pedophilia becomes a primetime hobby. There are moments in American media when you can almost hear the floorboards groan under the weight of a take so profoundly misguided that the English language itself tries to flee the room. Megyn Kelly’s latest contribution to the Jeffrey Epstein discourse produced exactly that sound, the slow

    The New Campus Survival Skill: Duck, Cover, And Don’t Say “White Supremacy” Out Loud

    Indiana discovers that if you squint hard enough, teaching racism is now suppressing intellectual diversity. The modern university used to worry about things like research output, crumbling lecture halls, and whether students would riot if the dining hall replaced curly fries with the straight, morally ambiguous kind. Indiana University Bloomington has discovered a more avant

    Trump Says Groceries Are Cheap Now, So Please Stop Looking at Your Receipts

    An official memo from the alternate universe where gas is two dollars, milk is basically free, and your checking account is lying to you/ Americans have endured many strange plot twists in public life, but few moments rival the latest presidential message that rolled out like a weather alert from a parallel dimension. Donald Trump,

    CATHOLIC GUILT FOR TRUMP: THE HOLY WATER JUST BOILED OVER

    The bishops finally found their voices again. Not the soft indoor-voice homilies that float above parish pews like incense, but something closer to a raised eyebrow from God. America’s Catholic hierarchy, after years of sounding like they were trapped between a Fox News chyron and a Vatican footnote, just dropped a “Special Message” on immigration

    Democrats End a 43-Day Shutdown by Arguing Over the Debris

    There are many ways to end a government shutdown. You can compromise. You can capitulate. Or, if you are the Democratic Party, you can split into factions and hold a family intervention in the middle of a burning building. The forty-three-day shutdown ended the way every American civics textbook secretly dreams: not with a unifying
