The Rudderless Ship Called America
The ship has lost its propulsion. Today on The Ignition News, three stories that all point to the same place.
First: the president is suing the IRS for $10 billion, and the people negotiating that settlement on behalf of the federal government work directly for him. His former personal attorney Todd Blanch is running the DOJ. Two options are on the table: a direct cash payout from the Treasury, or the permanent erasure of every audit against Trump, his family, and his businesses. A federal judge has already flagged the constitutional problem. Tax lawyers say it may be a crime. Elizabeth Warren called it a massive unprecedented scandal. Don Beyer called it the largest single act of grand larceny in history.
Second: Americans are leaving. Not vacationing. Leaving. 180,000 emigrated in 2025 alone, the largest outbound wave in decades. For the first time since the Great Depression, more people left the United States than arrived. 30,000 are standing in line to formally renounce their citizenship. And the people doing it are not panicking. They did the math. They wrote it out. And they decided it was not worth it.
Third: the DNC paid for an autopsy after 2024 and is hiding the results. The DCCC once blacklisted consultants who worked for primary challengers against incumbents. That is still the operating logic. And the party wonders why it is six points less popular than MAGA Republicans.
The wealthy are getting room service. The rest of us are below deck with the rodents. Some people are slipping off on life rafts in the middle of the night. Someone needs to take the wheel.
Stay lit.
