Maher vs. The News Cycle: The crew says Maher’s right to highlight violence against Christians in Nigeria—and wonders why Big Media treats it like Voldemort (“the crisis that shall not be named”).
Free Speech, But Make It Selective: If coverage were a game show, some stories get a confetti cannon and others get… the witness protection program.
World on Fire (Sometimes Literally): From a Michigan church blaze to a North Carolina drive-by, the “expanding theater of war” sounds way too much like a Marvel phase we didn’t order.
Africa, Jihadists, and Global Shrugs: Jay argues Boko Haram’s atrocities get global ghosted, drops a (spicy) Libya take, and gives a history crash course on violent expansions—then asks why Western integration keeps feeling like a group project with no rubric.
Cultural Tangles at Home: Dearborn drama, mayoral mud-wrestling (metaphorical… for now), and whether public squares can host Christmas lights and pluralism without exploding.
Meanwhile in Portland: “Insurrection at ICE” posts, local officials allegedly playing Twister with enforcement.
Migration & Integration: Cultural fit is complex; integration is a two-way street.
