May 2015, a quick historical rant!

Dive into the wild, unhinged fever dream that was May 2015! From Baltimore’s fiery protests over Freddie Gray’s tragic death to the 2016 election circus revving up with Hillary Clinton’s cash controversies and Jeb Bush’s awkward stumbles, this month was a rollercoaster of outrage and absurdity. Witness the GOP clown car pile-up with Santorum, Walker, and vegetarian Ben Carson, while Bernie Sanders preached debt-free college like a street prophet. Across the pond, David Cameron’s Tories crushed Labour, and Ireland celebrated love with same-sex marriage. Back home, the NSA’s phone-snooping got shut down, Texas conspiracy nuts feared martial law, and ISIS’s shadow loomed over Ramadi and Palmyra. Scandals rocked the headlines: Dennis Hastert’s hush-money mess, George Stephanopoulos’s hidden donations, and Josh Duggar’s shocking exit. Add a D.C. murder solved by pizza DNA, B.B. King’s soulful farewell, John Nash’s tragic crash, and Beau Biden’s heartbreaking loss, and you’ve got a month that swung from absurd to devastating.

Join us as we unpack this Technicolor chaos in a gripping, Hajime Isayama-inspired visual recap that captures the raw intensity of a nation jitterbugging on the edge.
