The Ballots Are Coming From Inside the Mailbox: Trump’s Latest Election-Rigging Hallucination Hits the Road
Donald Trump has logged on again, which means logic has logged off. His latest Truth Social rant claims that the 2020 election was “Rigged and Stolen,” that mail-in voting should be banned, and that California’s Prop 50 redistricting referendum will have “Millions” of fake ballots “shipped” in. He offered no proof, no evidence, no math—just

Trump Is The Speaker of The House and Mike Johnson Forgot How to Speak
Somewhere between the Capitol dome and Mar-a-Lago, the People’s House misplaced its voice. The New York Times tried to call it “a portrait,” but it read more like an autopsy. Speaker Mike Johnson, the man theoretically third in line to the presidency, has kept the House out of session for most of the shutdown, spending

Democrats Don’t Need a Savior. We Need to Stop Suffocating Hope
There’s a new morality tale making the rounds in political media, and this time it stars Graham Platner, the tattooed Maine oysterman who tried to run for Senate, briefly became a folk hero, and then turned into the cautionary example in Politico Magazine’s think piece about how Democrats keep “falling for fantasies.” Their argument: Democrats

Zohran Mamdani: Building Bridges While The Ignorant Builds Walls
If you walked into Astoria today and asked what it looks like when a politician actually organizes for the people—not the patrons, not the press hits, but the ten-ants—they’d mention one name more than any other: Zohran Mamdani. Born in Queens, raised between Kampala and Doha, organizer-turned–New York State Assembly member, now casting a wide

Trump sold who the Pentagon? Inside America’s First Crowdfunded Military Payroll
There’s something exquisitely American about a shutdown that ends with the Pentagon passing a hat. Somewhere between a bake sale and a Bond villain subplot, the Department of Defense just accepted a $130 million “gift” from an anonymous donor—yes, a literal donation—to help pay soldiers’ salaries while the government remains closed for business. President Trump,

Trump Carrier for Cartels? The USS Gerald R. Ford Isn’t in the Med. It’s in the Caribbean, and the Script Just Changed
There’s a plain, brutal fact: the United States’ most advanced super-carrier has been pulled from its European itinerary and ordered into the Caribbean. The USS Gerald R. Ford — along with its air wing, escorts, surveillance stack and thousands of sailors — is now headed into the U.S. Southern Command region. The official story: it’s

America’s New Marching Orders: How to Turn the National Guard Into a Campaign Prop (and Still Call It “Public Safety”)
There’s a special kind of genius in bureaucratic evil—the kind that hides a revolution inside a memo. The latest leak out of the Pentagon reads less like a defense directive and more like a stage direction for an authoritarian dress rehearsal: by April 1, 2026, every state’s National Guard must have a rapid “Response Force”

“You’re on Your Own, Kid”: The Chaos That Would Follow Killing the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare)
Picture it: You wake up tomorrow and the Affordable Care Act—the rickety scaffolding that keeps our health-care carnival from collapsing—has vanished overnight. No repeal-and-replace. No Medicare-for-All sequel. Just an empty folder where your coverage used to live, and a nation of 330 million people standing in line at CVS holding expired insurance cards and prayer

Big Raid on Canal Street: When the Counterfeit Crackdown Looks More Like Occupation
There’s something disquieting about seeing dozens of federal agents—batons, rifles, zip-ties, armored vehicles—rolling onto a stretch of Manhattan known for knock-off handbags and street vendors, rather than insurgents. On October 21, 2025, in an operation that looked less like “intelligence-driven enforcement” and more like “military parade meets commerce,” ICE and a coalition of federal agencies

Grift Nation: Inside the Cash Streams of a $0 Paycheck Trump Presidency
He brags he doesn’t take a salary, then turns the presidency into a cashback card with no limit—platform settlements, sovereign “gifts,” crypto windfalls, donor dinners, family funds, and hotel invoices humming like slot machines—daring the country to mistake a press release for ethics. He wants the zero to glow like a halo. He holds it
