Federal Government Shut Down is Trump’s Trojan Horse
It begins at midnight, not with fireworks or ceremony but with lights flickering off in office after office, cubicle after cubicle, across the federal government. The hum of fluorescent tubes dies. The emails bounce back. The phones ring without answer. The federal government, the largest employer in the United States, goes into induced coma—not because…

MAGA Lets Their Racism Show Towards Bad Bunny: Puerto Rico is part of the United States idiots
Let me start with the obvious: Puerto Rico is part of the United States. If you keep forgetting that, maybe read a map. But that fact seems to blow open minds like a shock collar when the MAGA brigade—provoked by Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl headline—whips out the same ugly refrains: “He’s not American.” “Latin takeover.”…

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.…

From Hypertext Dreams to Data Nightmares: Tim Berners-Lee’s Reminder That We Broke His Toy
The man who sketched the web on paper napkins at CERN now has to watch it shuffle around in stained sweatpants, working shifts for monopolies that surveil your cousin’s cat pictures and weaponize your grandmother’s political rants. Tim Berners-Lee, knighted not just for giving us hyperlinks but for unleashing the entire World Wide Web on…

Bad Bunny’s Big Bounce to the Super Bowl Stage: The Latin Tsunami America Pretended to See Coming
Late one Sunday night, when millions were stretching out their wings and yelling at referees, the NFL, Apple Music, and Roc Nation dropped a bomb: Bad Bunny—Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio—will headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show at Levi’s Stadium. Yes, the Puerto Rican icon will take the solo spotlight on February 8,…

Truck, Guns & Fire at Church: The Grand Blanc Massacre, the Vet Suspect, and America’s House-of-Worship Nightmare
The morning sun in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, had barely cleared the steeples when violence crashed into the sanctuary. What was meant to be a day of worship became an inferno of terror: a truck barreled into a church foyer, gunfire roared, gasoline ignited flames, and an Iraq-war veteran now lies dead among the debris.…

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…
