Marjorie Taylor Greene: The Redemption Trap and the Rage Machine
So here is the question that refuses to be polite. Does everyone deserve a redemption arc. The storybook says yes. The sermon says forgiveness is a commandment.

Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene Find Out That MAGA is Turning Out To Be Frankenstein’s Monster
Marjorie Taylor Greene built the flamethrower, aimed it for years, and is now stunned to discover it works in every direction. There is a particular sound that occurs when a political movement devours one of its own. It is not dramatic. It is not operatic. It is not even loud. It is a soft, wet

Everything Since 2016 Was A Dream: The Writers’ Room Has Lost Control of the Plot
If the last decade were a TV series, even the interns would be begging the showrunners for a hard reboot before cancellation.

Verizon Shrinks 20% of Workforce Because Economy is Booming
A corporate efficiency makeover that looks suspiciously like a disappearing act.

Verizon,

Trump’s Epstein Problem: The Dog That Finally Barked at 218 Signatures
Congress rarely moves with speed unless it is the speed of decay. But once in a generation, the planets align, a freshman gets sworn in on a Friday night, and the House of Representatives actually does something explosive by accident. This week, that accident arrived in the form of newly sworn in Representative Adelita Grijalva,

CATHOLIC GUILT FOR TRUMP: THE HOLY WATER JUST BOILED OVER
The bishops finally found their voices again. Not the soft indoor-voice homilies that float above parish pews like incense, but something closer to a raised eyebrow from God. America’s Catholic hierarchy, after years of sounding like they were trapped between a Fox News chyron and a Vatican footnote, just dropped a “Special Message” on immigration
