The Death of Facts: How Ring Wing America Replaced Reality with Programming
There was a time, not all that long ago, when America had one reality. It wasn’t perfect, but at least it was shared. We all tuned in to Walter Cronkite or Peter Jennings or Dan Rather.

The AI Bubble Is Eating the Economy Alive (and Still Asking for Dessert)
There’s a fine line between innovation and collective delusion, and we are currently sprinting across it in a pair of $2,000 AI-branded sneakers financed at 22 percent APR.

When the Speaker Calls Protestors “Anti-America”—and Then Wonders Why Democracy Is Dead
At dawn on October 10, 2025, House Speaker Mike Johnson went on Fox News and denounced the upcoming No Kings rally as a “hate America” event.

Portland, We Have a Problem: Trump’s “War on Antifa” and the Authoritarian Dress Rehearsal
Somewhere in a Pentagon sub-basement or a Mar-a-Lago group chat, someone must have said, “What if we just did 2020 again—but meaner?” Because here we are, October 2025, and President Donald Trump has decided to reboot his greatest hits tour: the “War on Antifa.” It’s like the “War on Drugs,” but with fewer facts and

Chicago Judge Hits Pause on Trump’s Troop Show: Sovereignty on Life Support
When America elects a man who treats the Constitution like a napkin for his Diet Coke spills, you get weeks like this: federal helicopters dangling agents over Chicago apartment buildings, immigration patrols conducting fashion-police stops downtown, and the President attempting to cosplay Lincoln while importing National Guard troops from Texas as if Illinois were suddenly

If you’ve been wondering what happens when a political creature of pure MAGA instinct suddenly develops a pre-existing condition called “reality,” you need look no further than Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s recent metamorphosis. NBC News reported on October 9, 2025, that Greene—yes, the same woman who once made headlines for chasing David Hogg through Capitol

Liberty Vote or Liberty Lost? Why Dominion’s Sale to a GOP-Led Company Should Make Us All Nervous
On October 9, 2025, the Associated Press confirmed what election administrators had been whispering about: Dominion Voting Systems—the same company dragged through the mud with lies about 2020—has been sold.

Trump’s Secret Messaging Ministry: When Truth Social Becomes the Oval Office’s Broken Pager
Once upon a time, presidents used secure lines, classified document systems, and the color-coded envelopes of official communication. Now, Donald Trump apparently prefers his cabinet to conspire via Truth Social direct messages. That’s not just sloppy—it’s a violation of everything grownups in government swear by. Using a public social app as a back-channel is like
