In American politics, hope springs eternal, but the Senate map springs something closer to gastrointestinal distress. Democrats already understand the 2026 landscape is bleak. What they have not fully absorbed is that 2028 is worse, the kind of worse that makes you stare into the middle distance like a Victorian widow holding a folded flag.

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

The Tariff King Goes to Court: When One Man’s ‘National Security’ Is Everyone Else’s Grocery Bill
The Supreme Court spent the morning doing something rare in the modern republic: pretending to remember that Congress exists. In a hearing that felt equal parts economics seminar and constitutional therapy session, the justices took up the question no one in Washington has wanted to answer for six years—can a president tax Americans by calling

The Prosecutor Who Wasn’t There: Trump’s DOJ, James Comey, and the Case of the Missing Lawful Appointment
At some point, the Department of Justice stopped pretending to be about justice and started acting like a casting call for vengeance. This week, a federal judge finally noticed. In the Trump Justice Department’s long-running revenge play against former FBI Director James Comey, the court pressed pause—not on the facts, not on the charges, but

The Morning After the Wave: Trump’s Truth Social Tantrum and the Art of Governing by Gripe
There is a sound that follows defeat, and it is not silence. It is the clattering of a smartphone in the small hours, the electronic cough of a man refreshing his own reflection. The morning after Democrats’ big wins, while New York was still sweeping up confetti and poll workers were still drinking reheated coffee,

The Blue Wave Broke: Prepare For Trump To Become More Unhinged
Some nights don’t end; they just change temperature. Tonight is one of those nights. Across America, the political map bled blue again. It wasn’t subtle, and it wasn’t polite. The “Blue Wave” that pundits dismissed as myth or meme arrived in full coastal fury. Suburban districts turned into crime scenes for Republican incumbents. Ballot initiatives

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

Competence Wins a News Cycle: The Week Democrats Made Normal Look Radically Blue
For once, America looked up from its collective doom scroll and saw something profoundly un-American by recent standards: functioning democracy. No coups, no indictments, no men in designer flak jackets shouting about tyranny from podcast studios. Just elections that ran, counted, and ended with results that made sense.

A working city ignored a presidential threat, shrugged at nostalgia, and handed the job to a 34-year-old borough organizer who treated power like a verb. The story begins the way most power stories do, inside a pressure chamber. A president raised the cost of defiance on a city he does not love. A former governor
