Trump’s Oval Office Stunt: Conspiracy Theory in the Spotlight
Let’s talk about the stupidest piece of political theater we’ve witnessed in recent memory.

The actual math behind this…
The Unauthorized Immigrant Count: What’s the Real Number?
How many fucking unauthorized immigrants are there in the US - really? I posted a tweet from Laura Loomer last week that noted there were now 65 MILLION illegal immigrants in the US currently.

Qatar’s “Gift” to Trump: A Decades-Old Problem the Royals Can’t Unload
You know that Boeing 747-8 that Qatar supposedly “gifted” to Donald Trump - it’s not the grand gesture it appears to be.

Delivered in…
Political Gifts: From Nixon’s Checkers to Trump’s Qatar Jet
Let’s talk about political scandals and the strange art of accepting gifts while in office - because somehow we’ve evolved from defending a dog named Checkers to justifying a $400 million “flying palace” from Qatar.

Trump’s Drug Price Promise: Just Hot Air or Real Change?
So - how seriously should we take Trumps prescription drug announcement today on Truth Social?

First off - …
The Artistic Guillotine: Trump’s War on Culture
Let’s talk about the demolition of art funding that’s happening right now - because that’s exactly what it is. Arts organizations across America got the digital equivalent of a pink slip this month. The Albany Symphony, Empire State Youth Orchestra, and hundreds of others received emails essentially saying “your money’s gone” - all stemming from…
Trump’s Tariff Logic: Blackmail or Simply Ignorance?
It literally hurts my brain to see people back retaliatory tariffs based on the fact that other countries have tariffs on American products. Its like they cant spend even one moment working through why this might be. When foreign countries impose tariffs on American goods - it’s not personal, it’s practical. Their targeted approach to…
Money in Politics: The Root of Our Political Dumpster Fire
