Fox News Host Pete Hegseth vs War Hero Mark Kelly: Telling Soldiers to Obey the Law Is Not Sedition, It’s the Job
When loyalty tests replace doctrine and truth gets charged with misconduct. The Pentagon announced that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is seeking administrative punishment against Senator Mark Kelly for saying something that should have been so boring it barely registered as a headline. Kelly said service members should not follow unlawful orders. That’s it. No

“Locked and Loaded” for Someone Else’s Streets, While Ours Are Still Cracking
When foreign policy becomes a midnight post and democracy is optional paperwork. President Donald Trump went to Truth Social and announced that the United States is “locked and loaded and ready to go” if Iranian authorities violently suppress the latest wave of protests spreading across the country. The phrasing was familiar, theatrical, and deliberately vague,

MTV Finally Turned Off the Music, and Let the Epitaph Roll
The channel that taught America how to watch sound signed off with a joke that stopped being funny decades ago. MTV ended its last remaining 24 hour music video channels by playing “Video Killed the Radio Star,” the same song that launched the network in 1981. It was meant to feel clever, full circle, maybe

Epstein Files Transparency Act Meets DOJ’s Blackout Marker, and Congress Discovers the “Oops, All Redactions” Loophole
A statutory deadline, a disappearing website, and the federal government’s newest genre: partial compliance theatre. Congress did that rare Washington thing where everyone pretends the job still matters. They passed a law. They put a deadline in it. They specified what had to be released. They even limited the excuses, the usual ones about victim

60 Minutes Pulled the CECOT Deportation Story, and CBS Just Invented the White House “Kill Switch”
When corporate consolidation meets political fear, the investigative segment becomes a ghost. There are two kinds of silence in American journalism. One is the ordinary kind, the necessary pause while reporters verify names, confirm documents, and wait for reluctant sources to stop pretending their phones are dead. The other kind arrives after a story has

Trump Calls Fentanyl a Weapon of Mass Destruction, and the Iraq War Echo Starts Clearing Its Throat
When you rename a crisis, you also rename what you’re allowed to do about it. If you ever want to watch a government change the shape of reality without changing the underlying problem, pay attention to vocabulary. Not the boring vocabulary, not the kind that lives in briefing binders, but the kind that arrives with

My Favorite TV Shows of 2025, Ranked by Vibes, Emotional Damage, and How Fast I Hit “Next Episode”
No particular order, because ranking art is how streaming apps turn joy into spreadsheets. Every year, television looks at America’s collective attention span, flicks it on the forehead, and says, “Come here, I made you something complicated.” In 2025, it felt like the medium finally admitted what we all already know, most of us are

Trump and MAGA’s Fake Outrage Over Charlie Kirk Rhetoric Takes Center Stage Amidst Tragic Loss of Rob Reiner
A national treasure, a grieving family, and a president who still thinks empathy is for losers. There are certain moments when a country quietly tests its own spine. Not in a grand, cinematic way, not with flags and speeches, but in the small, practical way a human being looks at another human being’s grief and

2028: Democrats Need A New Deal For A New Era
By 2028 the Democratic Party must stop running as a cautious maintenance crew and instead offer an unapologetic governing vision that begins with abolishing the filibuster to enable majority rule, then moves swiftly into universal government-backed health care, aggressive antitrust enforcement, modern gun safety laws, and a rebalanced tax code that raises rates on billionaires…

The Game Awards 2025 and the Night One Game Ate the Stage
Eight trophies, one gravitational center, and an industry that briefly convinced itself this was destiny rather than appetite. The Game Awards 2025 unfolded like a formal ceremony that accidentally wandered into a single studio’s victory party and then politely decided not to leave. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 did not simply win big. It became the
