King Charles Offers Sorrow for Slavery, but No Apology. Forget Reparations.

Monday, November 9, 2026 at 9:03 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
King Charles speaking at Commonwealth summit, with slave shackles, Caribbean flags, and colonial judicial imagery.

Britain owes the Caribbean an apology, not reparations. iPINIONS argues that debt relief and genuine independence offer a better way forward. Read my full take on Substack: https://ipinionsdaily.substack.com/p/king-charles-offers-sorrow-for-slavery Read more.

Jamaica Bends the Knee to Trump, Betraying Cuba… and Its Own Heroes

Friday, November 6, 2026 at 9:03 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Garvey, Manley and Marley overlook a collage of the UN Cuba embargo vote, Jamaican and Cuban leaders, and Havana.

Jamaica abstained from condemning the US embargo against Cuba, betraying Caribbean solidarity and its own heroes. iPINIONS examines the cost of kowtowing to Trump. Read my full take on Substack: https://ipinionsdaily.substack.com/p/jamaica-bends-the-knee-to-trump-betraying Read more.

Midterms 2026: MAGA Is Dead. Long Live the Republic!

Wednesday, November 4, 2026 at 8:39 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Dour Trump beside a diverse, cheering crowd beneath a US map showing a nationwide blue electoral shift.

The American people have spoken, and Trump has suffered a humiliating rebuke. The 2026 midterms were more than a Democratic blue wave. They were a political exorcism of MAGA. But winning Congress is only the beginning. Democrats now have a mandate to confront Trump’s corruption, hold his enablers accountable, and prepare for 2028. Ossoff-AOC 2028.… Read more.

Latinos Have Supplanted Blacks as America’s Political Kingmakers. The Midterms Will Prove It.

Monday, November 2, 2026 at 8:26 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Editorial collage of Latino voters, Trump, and ICE arrests highlighting Latino political power in the 2026 midterms.

In 2006, I predicted that Latinos would surpass Blacks as America’s most influential minority electorate. Twenty years later, the New York Times is catching up. Republicans mistook Trump’s 2024 Latino gains for a lasting realignment. Now his ICE crackdown is fueling anger, fear, and political backlash. iPINIONS explains why Latino swing voters could expose that… Read more.

Haley Stevens, Doing Her Fiancé’s Bidding, Demands That El-Sayed Pass a Jewish Loyalty Test

Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 8:30 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Black-and-white political cartoon featuring a Michigan ballot box, Mike Rogers, MAGA supporters, Trump, and Putin.

Haley Stevens is putting Abdul El-Sayed through a political loyalty test over an antisemitic ad his campaign didn’t even run. Meanwhile, her fiancé openly backs Republican Mike Rogers. From Michigan to Israel, iPINIONS exposes the hypocrisy of invoking antisemitism to justify anti-Muslim prejudice.

Republican DOGE Targeted the Poor. Democratic DOGE Should Target the Rich.

Friday, October 16, 2026 at 9:03 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Editorial collage of Elon Musk wielding a chainsaw, DOGE operatives, and vulnerable children beside USAID food supplies.

Republican DOGE treated aid to the poor as waste while Musk, Trump’s family, and DOGE insiders benefited from billions in government largesse. From USAID cuts to sweetheart contracts, the hypocrisy is staggering. iPINIONS calls for a Democratic DOGE to expose the profiteers, recover ill-gotten gains, and restore aid to the poor.

Trump Ordered Raid of Ilhan Omar’s Home to Persecute, Not Prosecute, Her

Wednesday, October 14, 2026 at 8:29 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Editorial collage of Ilhan Omar, federal HSI agents, and Donald Trump with the quote “I will not be silenced.”

In 2019, Trump told Ilhan Omar to go back where she came from. In 2026, federal agents raided her home to make sure she finally got his message. Read my full take on Substack: https://ipinionsdaily.substack.com/p/trump-order-raid-of-ilhan-omars-home Read more.

Trump Puts Columbus on a Pedestal… and History Under His Heel

Monday, October 12, 2026 at 8:29 AM
Written by Anthony L. Hall
Editorial collage of Trump honoring Columbus at the White House, Indigenous rights protesters, and a toppled Columbus statue.

Trump has resurrected Columbus, not from the dead but from historical disgrace. And his White House statue honors more than a discredited explorer. It’s a monument to the comforting fiction that conquest was discovery, dispossession was progress, and White men alone made history. After all, iPINIONS contends, why bother rewriting history when you can carve… Read more.
