If politics feels scripted and outcomes never change, there is a reason. I write long-form investigations on power, media, and civil liberties. https://t.co/BHeQ9EW3MD

Watch what happens when elite scandals surface. Intelligence language appears almost immediately. Asset. Handler. Compromise network. The narrative shifts from prosecution to classification. Once that happens, the public stops being jurors and becomes spectators. National

The First Amendment forbids the state from treating belief, religion, or identity as evidence of criminal intent. The Fourth forbids suspicionless targeting. The Fifth forbids punishment without individualized proof. When lawmakers label an entire religion a security threat,

Palantir didn’t just grow revenue. It locked itself into the architecture of domestic enforcement, where data extraction and surveillance scale automatically with political fear. Once embedded, profit follows power... not performance.

“De-escalation” isn’t a messaging choice. It’s an operational one. Once agencies are trained, armed, and deployed as general-purpose security forces, control shifts from political rhetoric to institutional habit. At that point, statements can soften while behavior stays the

Regime change isn’t the goal. Enforcement is. Dollar dependence makes sanctions bite. Iran is learning how to operate outside it. That lesson doesn’t stay contained. https://t.co/lDk13HY7rP The Dollar Has a Foreign Policy — and Iran Is in the Way

You mean like Citizens United; where money with no address gets to dominate political speech legally?

ODNI builds the system. Federal agencies feed it intelligence collected under national-security authorities. Local police departments get access on their phones. That’s fusion centers, without the friction.

Iran’s supreme leader just warned the U.S. that an attack would spark regional war. That’s not bravado. It’s the clearest articulation yet that war will not be contained to one border. The risk isn’t miscommunication. It’s an entire policy ecosystem betting on escalation

This is EXACTLY how power actually works. You touch Epstein, Israel, or donor money, and the response isn’t debate. It’s cash, ads, and silence. That’s not democracy. That’s enforcement and crony capitalism.

Save this screenshot. Whether you like Don Lemon is irrelevant. What matters is the White House publicly framing an arrest tied to protest activity as spectacle, using meme language, before adjudication and without distinguishing journalism, protest, or criminal conduct.

Speech isn’t policed at the point of expression. It’s policed at the point of impact.

Only someone as stupid as Randy Fine would show something like this as justification. Oh no, he kicked a car, he spat at someone, let’s drag out the electric chair! Dude, ICE threw down a woman, he tried to pick her up, and he was shot for filming ICE, which has consistently been

Wouldn’t it be ironic if, right after U.S. political pressure forced TikTok into a restructure and Oracle took a central role, people simply quit the platform on their own? And then a new competitor emerged instead. Not because of governments. Not because of billionaires. But

Megyn Kelly said she wasn’t shot because she “kept my a** out of their operations” in response to the deaths of Alex Pretti and others. That isn’t analysis, it is justifying state violence by blaming victims. @ggreenwald you’ve said you respect Kelly — is this the reasoning you

We are not fighting over policy anymore. We are fighting over whether power should be constrained at all. That is a very different kind of conflict. https://t.co/EhVQz8TgmU

The real crisis in American politics is not polarization. It is that we no longer agree power itself should be constrained. When people start arguing that rights only apply to “the right people,” the system is already in structural trouble. I’m publishing something on this

Notice the pattern in coverage: First: deny Then: justify Then: redirect Rarely: investigate That’s not journalism. That’s narrative management.

This is evil , if true it's starting to look like Abu Ghraib in the U.S. @evanwch

We don’t have an immigration “mystery.” We have an accountability problem. U.S. FP destabilizes countries through coups, sanctions, debt pressure, and economic sabotage. People flee the damage. Then we criminalize them for fleeing it. The solution isn’t “fix the world.” It’s

If you wanted efficient deportation, you would focus on courts and process. If you want to project power, you stage raids and invite cameras. We know which one we are seeing.
