I left legacy media to build something different: independent, honest political analysis with no corporate or partisan agenda.
I call balls and strikes ⚾ — because politics needs referees, not cheerleaders.

Amid a self-created morass in the Middle East that is threatening to tank his party at the ballot box in six weeks time, President Donald Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on Tuesday morning.
I went line by line through the transcript of Trump’s UNGA speech Tuesday. Below I picked out the quotes from the president you really need to see.
I am the only reporter going through Trump’s words forensically every day/week/month. If you value that sort of close examination of what Trump says — as well as fact-checking, context and some humor — I hope you become a paid subscriber today! (I explained why I think this approach is SO critically important here.)
“Two and a half centuries after the cause of liberty found its home on this continent, I can report to you with pride that America is back, and our country is stronger today than ever before.”
“We've secured commitments for $21 trillion in new investments from all over the planet, compared to less than $1 trillion in four years in the previous administration.”
This is false. No matter how many times Trump repeats it, it’s still not true.
“We've invested more money in the United States military in the past 12 months than ever before, and this term, it'll be $1.5 trillion.”
