Silly, Chaotic, Beautiful Experiment of a Democracy
Trump has extended the ceasefire in Iran, while his DOJ has charged the Southern Poverty Law Center. Plus, LA schools will limit screen time, another House Dem has resigned, and Virginia voters have chosen redistricting.
Very Loser-Shaped
The clock is ticking on peace talks, a singer has been arrested on murder charges, Kash Patel is suing The Atlantic, ICE is arresting the families of service members, and MI tells the DOJ no.
An American Story Through and Through
A man has killed 8 kids, including 7 of his own, as the Strait of Hormuz closes again and the Atlantic publishes a bombshell piece of reporting on Kash Patel.
I’ve Lost the Plot
A ceasefire in Lebanon has started, an ICE agent has been charged while an ICE court interpreter has been locked up, and a former Lt. Gov. committed murder suicide. Plus… cat noises.
The Dumbest VP We’ve Ever Had
Articles of Impeachment have been filed against Pete Hegseth, and you’re about to be $1.72 richer. Plus, motivation to cast that ballot and, best of all… let’s make fun of JD Vance.
True and Cute
The DOJ is cool with insurrection, and the House is wondering how many other sexual assaulters walk amongst them. But then along comes Hungary to remind us that democracy is a decision.
Their Names Are the Whistles!
The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz has begun, but Trump’s busy beefing with the Pope, so who knows if he’s aware. Meanwhile, Minnesota is seeking information about an ICE kidnapping, and two House reps are stepping down amid sexual misconduct allegations.
You’re up Little Buddy
A group of masked shooters attacked a Chick-Fil-A; things in Iran are going exactly as bad as anything you’d expect Trump and JD Vance to be involved in; and it’s time for Eric Swalwell to leave. But don’t worry - at least the astronauts were back in time to witness everything.
There Is No Asterisk
This one’s all about the birthright citizenship case. Where things stand now, how we got here, and why Trump took up the case at all.
Kid Rock. That Dude Dumb.
Three stories, and they’re all testing my patience as Kid Rock gets Army pilots suspended, then unsuspended, and Trump’s ballroom construction is on hold as mail-in voting is on notice.
Retroactive Jingle in Their Pocket
Gulf allies push Trump to escalate the Iran war as U.S. casualties mount, ICE plans a controversial presence at a Marine graduation, TSA workers receive delayed pay amid a shutdown standoff, and Kid Rock sparks an investigation with a bizarre helicopter stunt.
Some Little Chitty-Chats
Iran issues chilling warnings, and TSA agents hope to get paid today, but ICE isn’t leaving airports anytime soon. Plenty of reasons for 9 million to have turned out in protest last weekend.
We’re a Cashless Society Anyway, You Dorks
Trump has thoughts on Sharpie prices while he signs an executive order to try and get TSA agents paid (don’t worry, the Senate’s actually working on it), and the IOC just banned trans female athletes.
Good Food, Good God, Let’s Eat
Deadly U.S. strikes with no evidence, a worsening shutdown, another shaky case against Letitia James, a major loss for Meta, and new revelations that Donald Trump shared classified information.
That’s a Human Adult!
Trump got a secret gift from Iran, Epstein business partners’ depositions drop, Meta was fined $375M, Minnesota sued the administration, and a Democrat flipped a deep-red Florida seat in Trump’s own district.
I’m Going to Give Myself the Credit
Trump’s Iran claims clashed with reality, ICE showed up in airports, deadly plane crashes hit New York and Colombia, the Supreme Court eyed new voting limits, and Robert Mueller died at 81.
Why Didn’t You Tell Me About Josh Harnett?
The U.S. moves closer to striking Iran as Trump faces backlash over conflicting military messaging, a prolonged National Guard presence in D.C. could be on the way, Congress fights over Epstein files, Comey is once again subpoenaed in renewed Russia investigations, and a major media merger is raising concerns about local news (but it’s not the merger you’re thinking about).
She Sure Didn’t Gab …bard
As Congress grills a DHS nominee and our top national security officials, Iran eyes energy infrastructure, and bombshell allegations against Cesar Chavez rock the labor community.
Imaginations Conversations
As Cuba faces an islandwide blackout and things in Iran continue, the Supreme Court will take up two cases that have the potential to shape immigration in America; plus, RFK Jr’s vaccination change gets a thumbs down, and Susie Wiles is diagnosed with breast cancer.
