Bill Maher: The Liberal Bulwark Who Fell in Love with His Own Contrarianism
Bill Maher: The Liberal Bulwark Who Fell in Love with His Own Contrarianism For a long time, Bill Maher was the voice I wanted in the room. He was brash, unapologetic, smarter than most of his guests, and willing to say the things the polite class of liberal pundits wouldn’t touch. In the Bush years,

Trump’s Chicago Dream: Send in the Troops, Forget the Math
The problem with promising to “crack down on crime” is that crime refuses to follow your campaign calendar. It does not politely spike in the zip codes you need for next week’s rally. It rarely consults your polling numbers before deciding whether to trend upward or downward. Yet here comes Donald Trump, fresh off his

When Billionaires Sue: Elon Musk’s Antitrust Opera Against Apple and OpenAI
On August 25, 2025, Elon Musk decided to stop subtweeting Apple and OpenAI long enough to do what billionaires do when they’re bored: sue somebody. This time, his companies xAI and X Corp. filed a federal antitrust case in Texas, alleging that Apple and OpenAI formed a duopoly designed to suffocate competitors—namely Grok, Musk’s chatty,

Prosecuting the Flame: Trump’s Executive Order on Flag Burning
On August 25, 2025, President Donald Trump signed a document so melodramatically titled it could double as a Netflix limited series: “Prosecuting Burning of the American Flag.” The executive order doesn’t criminalize flag burning outright—because the Supreme Court told America to chill about that back in 1989. But it does something more Trumpian: it takes

Siri’s Existential Crisis: Should Apple Buy Its Brain from Google?
On August 22, 2025, Mashable (via Bloomberg) confirmed what iPhone users have suspected since the first time Siri replied “I didn’t quite get that” to a basic request: Apple still doesn’t know what Siri should be. After years of delays, vaporware “Apple Intelligence” rollouts, and corporate reshuffles, the company is reportedly in talks with Google

Deportation Roulette: Spin the Globe, Land on Uganda
America has always had a gift for rebranding cruelty as administrative efficiency. On August 23, 2025, CNN reported the latest episode in our long-running tragicomedy of immigration enforcement: Kilmar Ábrego García—a Salvadoran man who’s lived in Maryland since 2011, married an American citizen, raised children here, and already survived one wrongful deportation—may now be deported

Chi-Town as a Stage Set: Trump’s War on Declining Crime
On August 23, 2025, the Washington Post reported that the Pentagon is quietly drawing up plans to deploy thousands of National Guard troops to Chicago this September. Because nothing says “public safety” like militarizing a city that just posted the lowest violent crime numbers in decades. Homicides? Down 30%. Shootings? Down 35%. Robberies and carjackings?
