When I first heard about the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, I wasn’t surprised to find many people in online spaces acting less than sympathetic. It didn’t surprise me to see calloused posts about his death. One, because unfortunately that’s just what the internet does, but also because a lot of people are genuinely […]
Do you know what jury nullification is? If you don’t, don’t feel bad—most adults don’t. And that’s not an accident. Here’s the short version: jury nullification is the power of jurors to vote “not guilty” if they believe a law itself is unjust or being unfairly applied. (I actually told a cool story about it […]
Did you know that only 13% of eighth graders are proficient in American History? Thirteen. It’s astoundingly awful. Knowing history isn’t just remembering dates or names—it’s understanding how we got here. It’s knowing why the Founding Fathers declared independence, what led to the Civil War, or how the principles of free markets and individual responsibility […]
I miss a lot of things about flying before the government stepped in and turned airports into security theaters. Things like keeping my shoes on, carrying a bottle of water, and walking straight to the gate without being molested. But what I miss most? It’s not even the convenience. It’s the connection.

Alright, let’s have a little fun today. With the new administration prepping for inauguration, the possibility of some serious “conspiracy theory” declassification could be just a couple months away. Honestly? The possibilities are wild because it looks like we have the makings of an administration that is legit wanting to turn Washington on its head. […]

But what really makes her story fascinating is how people piled on against her when they thought they’d caught her in a mistake. In her Parade magazine column, Marilyn tackled […]
Last week, I shared my thoughts on how The Guardian is failing to adapt to a changing landscape and what that could mean for their future. Sticking to the same old ways and ignoring market signals never works out well for the long-term success of any business. Now, Coca-Cola is giving a Masterclass on how […]
The landslide victory by Donald Trump is continuing to send its ripples throughout the media and pop culture. Some media outlets seem to be reevaluating their tone and messaging, and some celebrities who promised to leave the United States if Trump won might (finally) be making good on it. Oh no. Please. Don’t go. But […]
There’s a lot of buzz around President Trump’s new cabinet picks, and I’m not gonna lie—some of his choices have me pretty stoked. Maybe we’ll finally see an administration that’s actually willing to tackle government waste, rein in the Federal Reserve, and address America’s health crisis head-on. Of course there are a few picks that […]
