Stephen Miller is quietly lobbying to extend government surveillance powers while everyone watches the MAGA civil war he started. I wrote about who's actually running the long game in this administration - and it isn't Trump. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/the-shadow-strategist

Trump's "Board of Peace" charges $1 billion for a permanent seat - diplomacy as a subscription plan. I wrote about how Netanyahu dragged out the deal for 15 months before anyone took a bow. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/netanyahu-blocked-the-hostage-deal

We have watched this Iran strike drumbeat come and go, and it always follows the same playbook. I broke down how close we were to bombing Iran - and why the threat never really goes away. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/we-were-hours-away-from-bombing-iran

Trump ordered the National Parks to scrub slavery history, civil rights exhibits, and climate science from their walls. A GOP judge already told them to put it back. I wrote about this delusion. It never works. Read the breakdown. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/if-maga-could-turn-back-time

Les Wexner is being deposed by Congress today. His name appears over 1,000 times in the Epstein files. New documents show Epstein wrote they had "gang stuff" for 15 years. The receipts have always been there. I wrote about why nothing ever happens

RFK Jr.'s FDA quietly removed the page warning parents about dangerous, unproven autism "treatments" - the ones that can seriously injure or kill children. I already documented how this administration turned autism into a political and financial

Ted Cruz accidentally becomes pro-pedophile on live TV. You literally cannot make this stuff up.

Appeals court lets Trump revoke protections for 60,000+ migrants. I already documented why you can't sue the government like it's Pfizer - they get special immunity to cause harm without consequences. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/you-cant-sue-the-government-like

Trump just called for Republicans to "nationalize the voting" in 15 states before midterms. Remember when this exact power grab was predicted? The end of fair elections disguised as election security. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/democracys-red-flag-the-gerrymandering

Trump turning the National Prayer Breakfast into a campaign rally

Congress gave themselves 10 days to fund DHS after ending the shutdown. Republicans are using this fake emergency to expand immigration enforcement. Remember when we called this the Alligator Alcatraz strategy? https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/alligator-alcatraz-is-just-another

Trump suggests America stop caring about sex trafficking and focus on healthcare because apparently people don't care about Jeffrey Epstein's victims

Tom Homan's latest ICE maneuver in Minneapolis is just more political theater. Don't be fooled by the spin - I already broke down how Trump's deportation force is a barely competent sham. Read the original analysis. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/trumps-deportation-force-cant-do

Trump's approval rating just hit 36% as even Republicans signal frustration with his direction. I wrote about this exact fracturing months ago - how America quietly breaks apart without the drama. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/the-quiet-breakup-of-america

Trump admitted he wanted to name the Gulf of Mexico after himself

Senate Democrats are calling Trump's tariff policy corrupt. I broke down this exact playbook months ago - tariffs aren't about trade, they're a shakedown operation. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/the-art-of-the-arms-deal

A Democrat just flipped a Texas state Senate seat Trump won by 17 points - a 31-point swing that has Republicans calling it a "wake-up call." I wrote about this exact scenario months ago. Texas Republicans got greedy with their gerrymandering, spreading their voters so thin they put ten districts at

A UAE royal secretly bought half of Trump's crypto company days before the inauguration. Months later, Trump gave them access to restricted AI chips. The Wall Street Journal just exposed the receipts. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/the-2-billion-trump-crypto-scam

JD Vance thought he was making a charming joke about marriage - instead he described a hostage situation where his wife must perform approval on command.

Trump shares his thoughts on DOJ priorities regarding the Epstein files

The government shut down again - and Republicans are already using federal workers as partisan messengers. Here's how shutdowns became propaganda operations. https://rachelandthecity.substack.com/p/federal-workers-are-now-just-campaign

Trump's Deputy AG just went on Fox News and said "it's not a crime to party with Mr. Epstein" - signaling no new charges are coming despite 3 million pages of files. Even Laura Ingraham pushed back. But here's the thing - we didn't need those files to document Trump's own operation. His modeling

The Fed quietly gave Wall Street $420 billion in 7 months through a program unused for 5 years - then lifted the cap. They won't say which banks needed it for 2 years. Nothing to see here.

Hours after federal agents killed a nurse in Minneapolis, Bondi demanded access to MN voter rolls as part of her “restore the rule of law” demands. This was never about immigration. https://smpl.is/agrcr

TikTok users finally read the privacy policy they agreed to 18 months ago. Turns out the app has been collecting data on immigration status, trans identity, religion, and health the whole time. Now they're deleting in droves.

Caption: Last week, military/diplomatic officials believed U.S. strikes on Tehran were "within hours." Trump stood down after Gulf Arab nations pushed back. But the carrier group's still positioned, threats still active. We were THIS close.

Danish pension funds are dumping US debt because Trump wants Greenland. Europe's $8 trillion "Sell America" trade is live - and your grocery bill is about to feel it.

Trump ordered the military to invade Greenland. The Joint Chiefs said no - because it's illegal, Denmark is a NATO ally, and you can't just invade our friends.

All hail the King of Tariffs!
