Sergey Brin and other tech billionaires made fortunes in blue California, then fled to red Florida to dodge a proposed wealth tax. iPINIONS calls it what it is: greedy tax-dodging by billionaires who resent paying back the state that helped make them rich. Their flight may look like financial prudence, but it reeks of self-owning… Read more.
Russell Brand can strut and fret with Bible in hand, but sexual assault allegations are not erased by performative piety. His public display of repentance looks less like redemption than a celebrity legal strategy dressed up as salvation. iPINIONS cuts through the sanctimony to illustrate the oldest trick in the sinner’s playbook.

Here’s how iPINIONS thinks EU leaders should respond: Sure, Don TACO, just like you’re “considering” invading Iran.
