The Funding Threat: Trump’s NYC Mayoral Blackmail
The stage was set when Eric Adams abruptly bowed out of the NYC mayoral race. The city’s Democratic machinery tiptoed toward a new favorite: Zohran Mamdani. Then Trump hit “post” on Truth Social, going full lurid: Mamdani “needs the money from me … to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises” and, crucially, “won’t be

Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban: The Divorce Heartbreak Tour We Never Wanted
I don’t know who put “Public Divorce” on this year’s marquee, but somehow it cast Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban as its centerpiece act—the tragic stars of a love story we all believed in. Their separation announcement hit like a meteor strike: stunning beauty in motion frozen mid-dance, two icons unraveling in public while fans

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

Missouri First — Or Missouri Forever? Goodbye Democracy.
In Jefferson City, the Capitol passed a new gospel: Missouri First Map. The state’s governor, flanked by Republican legislators, signed HB 1 in a late-September flourish, after calling a special session, rushing through House and Senate votes, and locking in a mid-decade congressional redistricting that does less to reflect population and more to inscribe power.

Dominion and Giuliani’s $1.3 Billion Secret Settlement: When Lies Pay and Democracy Gets the Bill
There’s a peculiar magic trick the powerful love: make a noise so loud it draws attention, then vanish the outcome so no one can reverse-engineer the fraud. Yesterday, a mammoth defamation case—one purporting to demand $1.3 billion from a man who spent years amplifying election falsehoods—ended not in a verdict or a sensation, but in

The Coup That Wasn’t: Trump and the Fantasy of FBI Agents in the Crowd
It’s not just revisionism. It’s fiction masquerading as revelation. On a Saturday morning, the former president posted on his social feed that the FBI “secretly placed” 274 agents into the January 6 crowd—agents who, Trump implied, likely acted as “agitators and insurrectionists.” It was his best shot yet at reframing the riot not as mob

Comey Indictment: The Court Is Now in Session and the Defendant Is Judicial Independence
Some weeks in Washington feel like episodes of prestige television: you think you’ve reached the cliffhanger, only to discover the writers had two more shocking twists lined up for the same hour. This was one of those weeks. First, the Justice Department indicted former FBI Director James Comey, accusing him of lying to Congress and

Abilene LGBT Threat: When “Lock and Load” Becomes the Pride Parade Invitation
They say a threat is just a first draft of violence. Sometimes scribbled on social media, sometimes delivered with clicks and tags—but the message is the same: you are watched, you are vulnerable. In Abilene, Texas, one man apparently decided to turn that sentence into performance art, threatening LGBTQ+ parade participants only days before the

Trump Declares War on Portland (Again): Because Nothing Says Public Safety Like Martial Law for Coffee Shops
The president has dusted off his 2020 scrapbook and decided Portland, Oregon, looks best under military occupation. Once more, the word “domestic terrorist” has been stretched to cover anyone carrying a megaphone near an ICE building. Once more, federal power has been dressed up as patriotism and pointed at a blue city that never asked

Citizenship: Now Just Another Executive Order
Imagine a world where being born on U.S. soil no longer guarantees U.S. citizenship. That world is now on the table, offered in polite legal briefs and grant requests to the Supreme Court. The Trump administration, having signed an executive order restricting birthright citizenship, is now imploring the highest court to rescue it, after lower
