One prediction I have about American politics is that eventually a significant portion of the MAGA movement is going to turn on ICE. Not all of them, of course. Political movements are rarely unanimous about anything. But I think there will come a moment when many of the same people who today defend ICE, praiseContinue reading “Why I Believe MAGA Will Eventually Turn on ICE”

We Cannot Call for Violence. Even Now. Especially Now.
Last night, shots were fired at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C. President Trump was rushed off the stage by Secret Service agents. Vice President JD Vance and members of the Cabinet were evacuated. A law enforcement officer was struck, saved only by his bulletproof vest. A suspect, identified as Cole Tomas Allen,Continue reading “We Cannot Call for Violence. Even Now. Especially Now.”
Trump, FISA, and the Endless Cycle of Power: Why We Must Oppose Surveillance No Matter Who Is in Charge
There is a pattern in American politics that repeats so often it should no longer surprise anyone, yet it still manages to disappoint millions every time it happens. Politicians campaign as outsiders. They campaign as reformers. They campaign as the people who will finally challenge the machine, expose corruption, defend liberty, and dismantle the abusesContinue reading “Trump, FISA, and the Endless Cycle of Power: Why We Must Oppose Surveillance No Matter Who Is in Charge”
The SAVE Act and the Politics of Making Voting Harder: If You Build Barriers, Then Everyone Should Have to Climb Them
There is something deeply frustratingâalmost surrealâabout watching lawmakers in a country that constantly brands itself as the worldâs leading democracy actively flirt with policies that make voting harder, more complicated, and more exclusionary. The SAVE Act, framed by its supporters as a measure to âsecureâ elections, feels less like a genuine attempt to protect democracyContinue reading “The SAVE Act and the Politics of Making Voting Harder: If You Build Barriers, Then Everyone Should Have to Climb Them”
The Pro-Immigrant Case for Being Anti-Immigration (Right Now)
There is a statement that, at first glance, sounds completely contradictoryâespecially coming from someone on the political left. It almost sounds like a slogan designed to provoke confusion. Yet the more I have thought about it, the more convinced I have become that it is actually one of the most logically consistent positions someone whoContinue reading “The Pro-Immigrant Case for Being Anti-Immigration (Right Now)”
The Totem Pole Nobody Talks About
There’s a post circulating on social media that got me thinking, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. The idea is simple on the surface but goes pretty deep when you sit with it. The post was drawing a comparison between how quickly Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein were prosecuted andContinue reading “The Totem Pole Nobody Talks About”
IMPEACH THIS FUCKER
Iâm writing this on January 4th, 2026, one day after what I can only describe, based on everything that has been reported, discussed, leaked, spun, denied, and half-acknowledged, as an illegal and reckless attack on Venezuela ordered by Donald J. Trump. And no, Iâm not calm about it. Iâm not measured. Iâm not interested inContinue reading “IMPEACH THIS FUCKER”

Man⊠MAGA beefs have officially gone off the rails.Like, weâre not even in the same political universe anymore â weâre watching reality TV with nukes in the background. Youâve got Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene throwing shade at each other like two chaotic exes fighting over who gets to call themselves âthe real patriot.âEveryContinue reading “MAGA Civil War: Trump vs. MTG, Shapiro vs. Fuentes â The Circus Never Ends đȘ”
The Democratsâ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering
The government shutdown of 2025 has been one of the most shameful episodes in modern American politics, not just because of the dysfunction it exposed, but because of how both parties â especially the Democrats â turned human suffering into a political strategy. For over 40 days, the federal government was paralyzed, workers went withoutContinue reading “The Democratsâ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering”
The Leftâs Shameful Hypocrisy in the Government Shutdown: Anti-Worker Politics Disguised as Progressivism
The current government shutdown has exposed something deeply disturbing about the state of so-called progressivism in America. As the federal government teeters on the brink of chaos, there are voices, voices that claim to be on the left, calling for the shutdown to continue. They present it as some kind of moral or political strategy,Continue reading “The Leftâs Shameful Hypocrisy in the Government Shutdown: Anti-Worker Politics Disguised as Progressivism”
