  • Pete Hegseth Is a Danger to the World

    Pete Hegseth Is a Danger to the World
    Jun 30 2025
    Last week, Pete Hegseth argued that the real danger to our military lies in criticism from the press or skepticism about military campaigns. He’s wrong. The real danger to our military is leadership that rewards dishonesty, punishes accountability, and erodes the chain of trust that holds the armed forces together. Pete Hegseth is unqualified. Pete Hegseth is a liar. Pete Hegseth is a national security risk. And he’s found a forever-home on the Enemies List. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Triumphalism: The Prelude to Global Tragedy

    Triumphalism: The Prelude to Global Tragedy
    Jun 23 2025
    The B-2 strike on Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility was a show of unmatched precision and power—but the rush to celebrate masks a dangerous truth. Triumphalism, especially from Trump’s political base, treats the attack as an end rather than a beginning. But Iran has built its legacy on asymmetric warfare, and tonight’s strike may have opened a long, uncertain chapter rather than closed one. This isn’t just about a bomb dropped—it’s about what comes next. Iran doesn’t need nukes to retaliate; it needs patience and proxies. The enemy gets a vote, and Tehran is likely already planning its next move. Triumphalism isn’t victory—it’s the prelude to tragedy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The Stochastic Terrorism MAGA Wants

    The Stochastic Terrorism MAGA Wants
    Jun 16 2025
    Political violence doesn’t emerge in a vacuum — MAGA has built a system of terror out of manufactured rage and conspiracy. The assassinations and attempted assassinations in Minnesota over the weekend are the logical result of this effort. Fox News, Facebook, and Twitter are the hypodermic needles injecting the MAGA base with vile hatred, allowing them to see anyone who disagrees with them not as adversaries, but as existential threats—pedophiles, communists, invaders, subhumans. These stories aren't just fringe; they’re algorithmically amplified, monetized, and echoed by politicians and law enforcement alike. When this kind of rhetoric becomes normalized, stochastic terrorism becomes inevitable. The country is reaching a flashpoint — not because individuals snap, but because entire platforms profit from pushing them to the edge. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The Imaginary War For LA

    The Imaginary War For LA
    Jun 12 2025
    Trump's invasion of Los Angeles isn’t about immigration—it’s about power, manipulation, and preparing you for a crackdown. WE are the real targets. The Trumps, the Millers, the Bondis, the Patels, they are praying for violence to legitimize a massive military escalation. Fox News, Twitter, and Facebook are deeply complicit. They may be pulling immigrants off the streets for the cameras, but they're really coming for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Why Is Stephen Miller Invading LA?

    Why Is Stephen Miller Invading LA?
    Jun 9 2025
    Stephen Miller is a familiar face on the Enemies List, but over the weekend, the stakes ramped up to a million. He isn’t just a policy advisor—he’s the mastermind behind the deliberately cruel strategy to provoke unrest and justify state violence. This incursion into the streets of Los Angeles with the ICE raids isn't LIKE a Nazi tacting. It IS on: provoke resistance, claim victimhood, then strike harder. It’s not about law enforcement—it’s about staging a spectacle of repression that delights the authoritarian base and erodes democratic norms. If that's not scary enough, the suspension of ABC’s Terry Moran under political pressure is proof that our media is buckling under this pressure. When cruelty becomes policy and dissent becomes criminalized, the danger isn’t just to immigrants—it’s to everyone. In other words...you're next. Learn more about your ad choices.
