Donald Trump’s own new government AI chatbot was supposed to make Washington work better. 

Instead, it started giving Americans answers that created a very different problem for the man who proudly introduced it.

Then there’s JD Vance asking Americans to give Republicans another chance, while Mike Johnson explains what that next chance would actually look like. 

Those two messages sittin...

Nine days away from the microphone. You’d think that might calm me down, clear my head, maybe even give me a little perspective.
Yeah. That didn’t happen.

I came back to a United States Congress heading for the exits, Mike Johnson and Thomas Massie battling over Pete Hegseth and the Iran war, and an announcement about American weapons in space that sounds like somebody pitched it in a science...

What happens when we hand kids the most powerful intellectual shortcut ever invented? New York City is putting the brakes on generative AI for hundreds of thousands of younger students, and it raises a much bigger question: Are we teaching kids how to use AI, or teaching them they don’t need to think anymore?

Then there’s the strange case of the disappearing American. We used to go to banks, pha...

When exactly did the word NO become a fucking suggestion?

A judge says stop. Congress says no. The Constitution says you can’t do that. And somehow, the answer keeps becoming: try again until somebody finally gives in.

That should scare the hell out of people, because democracies don’t usually collapse in one dramatic moment. Sometimes they get worn down one exception, one workaround and one igno...

Donald Trump has picked a trade war with Canada, and Americans may soon discover exactly what a 50 percent tariff looks like when it reaches the checkout line. 

I break down what’s coming, why Canada is retaliating, and what you might want to buy sooner rather than later before higher prices hit.

Meanwhile, something deeply unsettling is happening inside the United States Army. Pete Hegset...

Primary night just delivered a few surprises nobody should ignore. Florida, Alaska and Wyoming produced results that raise some uncomfortable questions about Democrats, Republicans and just how powerful a Donald Trump endorsement really is.

Meanwhile, the Kennedy Center name war has somehow gotten even more ridiculous. Trump’s name came down after a federal court ruling, but if you thought that ended ...

Fake electors are back in the news, and the latest development raises one hell of a question about accountability after the 2020 election.

Jeff Alan Wolf is in a weird Wednesday mood, and this edition of A World Gone Mad takes a decidedly different turn. It’s shorter, more relaxed and a little experimental, while still finding plenty in the news worth talking about.

Jeff Alan Wolf really didn’t want to do this episode. Not because there wasn’t enough news, but because American politics increasingly feels like the same infuriating show on an endless loop…

How close are we to the point of no return?

That’s the question driving this episode…and it may be the most important one I’ve ever asked. 

Forget the latest political headline or who’s winning the news cycle. I’m asking whether American democracy has become so deeply fractured that rebuilding it could take decades… or even generations.

If you’ve ever wondered whether Washington has completely lost its sense of proportion, this episode is for you. 

While America faces real challenges, some of our leaders seem far more interested in building personal legacies than solving the problems millions of Americans are actually worried about. At some point, you have to ask whether anyone in charge remembers what they’re supp...

I’m asking a question that should be easy to answer, but somehow nobody in Washington wants to. Whatever happened to the Republican Party that built its entire identity around fiscal responsibility?

Donald Trump delivered another speech. I forced myself to watch every minute of it so you don’t have to. Trust me… it wasn’t easy. 

What started as a routine presidential address quickly became something far stranger, filled with grand claims, familiar grievances, and moments that left me wondering whether I was watching politics or pure performance art.

Some political stories make you shake your head. Others make you wonder if anyone in Washington is even pretending anymore.

This week, I take on confirmation hearings that increasingly feel like political theater, where everyone already knows how the vote will end before the first question is even asked. At what point does the performance become more important than the process?

Lindsey Graham’s sudden death should have been a moment for reflection. Instead, it became something else almost immediately. Kash Patel and the FBI got involved.
