The administration’s war with Iran is setting a mountain of taxpayer dollars on fire every day—mostly because he doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Firms like Polymarket and Kalshi are turning war into yet another racket, as the suffering of many becomes a windfall payday for those few who hit the dystopian jackpot.

Right-wing criticism of Trump’s war has mostly come from familiar MAGA cranks like Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson. But it could quickly spiral out of control.

A remark in an interview with Tucker Carlson has set off a firestorm in the Middle East.

He seemed like such a fiercely uncompromised critic of elites. But maybe it’s always been more complicated than that.

Yes, we’re angry about what Donald Trump is doing to our country. But even more than that, we’re heartsick over the countless ways in which he is destroying this nation.

They’re acknowledging now that the people who called Trump a “fascist” were right. But somehow we’re still not to be trusted.

The philosopher and liberal politician Benedetto Croce laid it out in (where else?) The New Republic in 1937, galvanizing his Italian comrades.

The president is on a collision course with an accountability moment. Either he or our democracy will prevail.

You will lose money. Piles of it. But you will help save something far more important than money.

A certain breed of liberal is constantly in search of Republican politicians who seem to be anti-Trump. When will they ever learn?

Political journalists need to stop pretending they don’t know what Republicans are going to do.

Trump has been raging about the former CNN journalist. Attorney General Pam Bondi just had him arrested, a move one legal expert slammed as “highly irregular.”

Her plan to focus on “scoops of ideas” will only make the news network’s offerings more like (pretty much) everything else in media.

Journalists have an inherent right and professional duty to defend their industry and its mission against those who want to derail it—even when those threats are coming from the inside.

They’re affluent, white, female, urban liberals—and the murder of Renee Nicole Good will politicize millions of them.

When a Trump supporter refers to ICE as the “gestapo,” a door has definitely opened. Will Democrats charge through it?

As Trump floods the zone with mendacity, more and more people are tuning out the news to avoid him. We need a fresh approach.

Trump’s use of the antiwar song “Fortunate Son” in a video of the military raid in Venezuela was no mistake. It’s part of a very deliberate far-right aesthetic.
