I want to add something to my previous post, because after seeing more reactions to the Milo Yiannopoulos detention today, I think there’s an important distinction to make. I said that part of my prediction was that eventually we’d see people flip their positions on ICE depending on who ICE was going after. And IContinue reading “A Small-Scale Version of My Prediction Is Already Happening”

Well, I Called It: ICE Just Detained Milo Yiannopoulos
A few weeks ago, I wrote something on this blog that, at the time, was really more of a prediction than anything else. I said that I believed it was only a matter of time before ICE eventually arrested, detained, or deported someone who was a prominent figure within the MAGA movement. And now, hereContinue reading “Well, I Called It: ICE Just Detained Milo Yiannopoulos”
The Missing Claim: Why MAGA Won’t Take Credit for a Guy Who Sounds Like One of Their Own
There is a detail sitting in plain sight in all of this that I have not seen enough people actually stop and sit with, and it is this, the political movement that would, on paper, have the most obvious claim to Luigi Mangione based on everything documented about his actual beliefs, has not claimed himContinue reading “The Missing Claim: Why MAGA Won’t Take Credit for a Guy Who Sounds Like One of Their Own”
Why I Believe MAGA Will Eventually Turn on ICE
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.”

When Violence Gets Cheered, the Whole Spectrum Starts to Blur
These arson attacksāand the people cheering them onākeep reminding me of something I canāt shake. It feels eerily similar to the kind of political energy that came out of MAGA culture. And yeah, I know that alone is going to make people jump to conclusions. I know it might sound like Iām āequating both sidesāContinue reading “When Violence Gets Cheered, the Whole Spectrum Starts to Blur”
How Did We Get Here? The Normalization of Violence Across the Spectrum
Thereās something bigger going on underneath all of thisāthe arson, the copycats, the cheering, the excusesāand it needs to be said plainly: Violence has been getting normalized. Not overnight. Not because of one single incident. But over the last decade, piece by piece, moment by moment, weāve been pushed closer and closer to a pointContinue reading “How Did We Get Here?

They Broke His Arm. Now Tell Me Again How MAGA Loves the Troops.
There is a video going around right now, and if you have not seen it, you need to. A Marine Corps veteran named Brian McGinnis walked into a Senate Armed Services subcommittee hearing on March 4th, 2026, dressed in his military uniform, and stood up to say what a growing number of Americans have beenContinue reading “They Broke His Arm.
