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 Wars Have Merged, And Now We Have To Choose What Happens Next
There’s a moment that happens sometimes in history where two separate fires that everyone assumed were contained finally touch, and instead of two fires you have one fire, bigger than either one alone, burning in a direction nobody fully controls. That moment happened this weekend. Ukraine struck an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea, aContinue reading “The Wars Have Merged, And Now We Have To Choose What Happens Next”
Pickaxe Mountain and the Question of What Happens When You Bomb a Bomb Factory
As of July 24, 2026, the United States finds itself once again on the edge of a decision that could reshape the Middle East, and this time the target has a name that sounds almost cartoonish for something so serious. Pickaxe Mountain. It is the informal nickname given to a fortified underground facility that IranContinue reading “Pickaxe Mountain and the Question of What Happens When You Bomb a Bomb Factory”
My Red Line: The United States Should Not Be Threatening Israel With Bombs, and I Don’t Care Who That Makes Me Sound Like
I want to be upfront about something before I get into this, which is that I did not expect to be writing a post defending Israel from the United States, of all configurations, and I am writing it anyway, because what I am seeing happen right now bothers me enough that I am willing toContinue reading “My Red Line: The United States Should Not Be Threatening Israel With Bombs, and I Don’t Care Who That Makes Me Sound Like”
Iraq Joining the Iran War Means America Is Repeating the Same Old Disaster Cycle
As of 4/27/26, reports that Iraq is now being pulled into the Iran war should set off alarms everywhere. Because if this conflict expands through Iraqi territory, militias, bases, or direct confrontation, then we are staring at something many Americans never wanted to see again: Iraq War 2.0. And the political irony is staggering. DuringContinue reading “Iraq Joining the Iran War Means America Is Repeating the Same Old Disaster Cycle”
We Cannot Call for Violence. Even Now. Especially Now.

Vice President JD Vance and members of the Cabinet were evacuated. A law enforcement officer was struck, saved only by his bulletproof vest.

The Iran War Is Escalating Again — And Things Are Getting Worse
As of 4/26/26, hopes that the Iran war was cooling down appear to be fading fast. Instead of de-escalation, the region seems to be sliding back into confrontation. Diplomatic momentum is weakening, tensions between the United States and Iran are rising again, and the Strait of Hormuz remains at the center of the crisis. RecentContinue reading “The Iran War Is Escalating Again — And Things Are Getting Worse”
The Current Iran War Feels More Dangerous Than the Cuban Missile Crisis
The current Iran war, as of 4/21/26, has entered a phase that should alarm the entire world. A few days ago, the United States under President Trump reportedly attacked and seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship in the Gulf of Oman after it allegedly attempted to challenge the U.S. naval blockade. Trump publicly claimed a U.S.Continue reading “The Current Iran War Feels More Dangerous Than the Cuban Missile Crisis”
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”
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.
