The Art of Faux-rage: A Masterclass in Manufactured Scandal
There is an old saying: “Accuse your opponent of that which you are guilty.” If the modern American Right had a mission statement, this would be it—stitched onto every red hat, engraved on every gold-plated Trump steak knife, whispered into the ear of every Fox News host before their nightly hysteria-fest. Let’s take a moment…
The Big, the Bad and the Ugly!
Ahhh, America—the land of the free, where the government is bad, but corporations are just good old-fashioned capitalism at work. That’s the fairy tale we’ve all been sold, anyway. You see, for decades, Americans have been conditioned—no, let’s be honest, brainwashed—to believe that “big government” is the root of all evil, while massive, monopolistic corporations…
Make America Dumb Again
Once upon a time, back in the 1950s and 60s, American students actually understood how their own government worked. Crazy, right? That’s because civics was a mandatory part of the school curriculum.

Trump’s Legal Tantrums: Suing the Press…
The Trumpian “Golden Age” – Just Around the Apocalypse
Ah, the mythical “golden age” promised by Donald Trump and his devoted acolytes—a shimmering mirage always just beyond the horizon, perpetually one more catastrophe away. When will it finally arrive? Well, let’s take a look at the likely timeline of its glorious manifestation. First, the economy needs to crash—spectacularly. Of course, this will be spun…
The Rule of Law is Dead, Long Live the King
It was a good run, America. The whole “rule of law” experiment had its moments, but as Trump 2.0 has made abundantly clear, that’s over now. Why bother with courts, judges, or pesky legal precedents when you can just declare, I decide what the law is and move on? It’s efficient, really—why waste time on…
