In case you missed it By: Austin Abbring June 29, 2026 Supreme Court hands Trump an early defeat in his attacks on mail-in voting: While I estimate we will still face numerous attacks on mail-in voting and our election processes in general, this is a win for our democracy going into the midterms. Two Republican justices joined three liberal justices to reject the Republican effort to not allow states to count mailed ballots that arrive at election offices after election day.

Sounds like someone is a little nervous about a potential shift in the electorate By: Austin Abbring June 28, 2026 Mike Johnson is so painfully unfunny and such a cuck to President Trump and the GOP. A couple of days ago, he delivered a speech where he attempted to mock socialism and DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) platforms. This did not turn out to be the flex he thought it was, as these principles are necessary if we are going to make any real change or progress in

In honor of the president turning 80, examine 8 0 star moments from the 2nd Trump administration By: Austin Abbring June 14, 2026 Donald Trump will be celebrating his 80th birthday with a UFC event on the South Lawn of the White House. I cannot believe these are words that I just typed. I thought the film Idiocracy was supposed to be a satirical social commentary. This birthday celebration perfectly encapsulates the American empire's downward trajectory. For my celebration,

Should anybody really be shocked? By: Austin Abbring June 12, 2026 What’s that? Is that the distant rumblings of a social insurance program that has not been slashed into little tiny bits? You mean to tell me we missed gutting a safety net that protects the American working class? This is what I believe Speaker Mike Johnson meant to say after he was caught on a radio show where he did not mince words on Republicans’ future plans for Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare. H

A truly embarrassing display for the president By: Austin Abbring June 9, 2026 Credit: NBC news, Full interview: Trump says Iran ‘is not an endless war’ as conflict reaches 100 days After being challenged to provide evidence for fraudulent voting claims in the California gubernatorial and mayoral races as well as in the 2020 election, Donald Trump left his “Meet the Press” pre-tape interview in outrage. I have to commend Kristen Welker here for not backing down while Preside

Iran’s compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal should never be overstated By: Austin Abbring June 3, 2026 What better time to do a review of the JCPOA and the illegal war in Iran initiated by Donald Trump following the House War Powers Resolution than now? I have been planning on venting my frustrations for a while over the Iran nuclear weapons program talking point. Let’s get into it! Following a 215-208 vote in the House, this resolution now forces Donald Trump’s hand in Ir

This shooting involved 3 people tragically being killed (Amin Abdullah, Mansour Kaziha, and Nadir Awad), as well as the 2 gunmen who committed suicide. Following the shooting, more details have emerged on the perpetr

Trump, his cabinet, and Republicans have gotten lazy By: Austin Abbring May 17, 2026 It is quite fascinating how desensitized we Americans have become to unabashed corruption in our politics. Of course, this corruption has infiltrated both parties to varying degrees throughout our history. That is an undeniable fact. We could all argue about who has been more corrupt, who has done what, and which corruption has caused the most widespread and long-term damage. There will be p

A review of dastardly quotes of Trump cabinet members and Republican lawmakers against the very man they have sworn allegiance to. By: Austin Abbring May 17, 2026 It is no secret that Donald Trump’s rhetoric has been divisive for well over a decade. This is the man who entered politics proclaiming that Barack Obama was born in Kenya, rather than the United States, with no evidence. You could just tell where we were headed from there. Over the course of this Trump era, there

Explore three reasons why. By: Austin Abbring May 17, 2026 Damaged site from ongoing war in Iran If the war in Iran reminds you of another conflict from a little over two decades ago in the Middle East, then you would be one hundred percent correct. While there are some contrasts and this is a unique situation, several similarities between the two geopolitical conflicts warrant examination. In the case of Iran, we here in the U.S. are unfortunately left with an even more ine
