The Trump administration told a federal court it is still considering a 'partial closure' of the Kennedy Center — despite a ruling requiring it to stay open. The filing is less a legal argument than a stress test on judicial authority.
The Trump family holds documented financial ties to the UFC. The UFC just held an event at the White House. The administration says there's no conflict. The math says otherwise.
Dark money from ICE's largest private detention contractor flows to a political group tied to Jim Jordan — the congressman who chairs the committee that writes immigration enforcement law. The connection is legal, deliberate, and structurally coherent.
Gavin Newsom says Trump directed the DOJ to investigate him and his wife as he considers a presidential run. The pattern of using federal law enforcement against political rivals is no longer speculative — it's documented, escalating, and working exactly as designed.
The Allegheny County medical examiner has ruled the death of Daphy Michel, a Haitian immigrant released from ICE custody into sub-freezing temperatures, a homicide. ICE's response has not changed since March.
ICE spent $38 billion expanding detention capacity for a mass deportation campaign, then pulled back from the enforcement strategy that would have filled it. Daily detainee numbers have dropped to 58,000, leaving roughly 42,000 beds empty. The money is gone. The oversight isn't coming.
The Social Security trustees moved up the program's insolvency date by one quarter — and the report names the policies responsible. The same coalition now proposing to 'fix' the program caused the damage it is citing.
The Trump administration refused to publish a multi-year international alcohol study. The findings — showing cancer risk at light-to-moderate drinking levels — would have triggered mandatory updates to federal dietary guidelines. The alcohol industry has been lobbying against exactly that outcome fo
A liability shield for Uber and Lyft was tucked into must-pass transportation legislation — bypassing public debate while thousands of sexual assault survivors are still pursuing civil claims against both companies.
The DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel declared EEOC disparate impact guidelines unconstitutional — a non-binding memo that could still gut the enforcement tool workers have used to challenge discriminatory hiring for fifty years.
A former David Cameron strategist turned Fox News host is now the Republican nominee for California governor. His career is not a series of contradictions — it's a map of how the transatlantic right radicalized.
A proposal to permanently integrate U.S. and Israeli AI and autonomous weapons development isn't just a policy choice — it's institutional architecture designed to make future course-correction nearly impossible, embedded in defense budget language where it can pass without a public debate about whe
Forward Majority is spending $30 million on two dozen state legislative races this cycle — betting that eight obscure statehouse contests will determine who draws the congressional maps that shape House control through 2032. The real 2026 election is the one most voters aren't watching.
Families of Delaney Hall detainees describe a facility designed for invisibility — where injuries go unacknowledged, phone calls go dead, and a hunger strike is the only signal that reaches the outside world.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau deleted at least 2,200 webpages last month — consumer advisories, enforcement records, and congressional testimony dating to 2010. The deletion is not digital housekeeping. It is the erasure of an institutional record that the financial industry spent fifteen
Sen. Bill Cassidy, a physician, publicly blamed RFK Jr. for the resurgence of measles and whooping cough. It is the clearest Republican accountability for a public health failure that was entirely predictable — and one senator's X post is not the same thing as a consequence.
