Compose a timeline
Pick actors, set a year range, filter by lane. The URL is the citation. Curated presets →
Add an actor above to begin. Try Trump · Bondi · Vought · Miller, or the Federalist pipeline, or the Russia interference cluster.
Or pick from the curated timelines instead.

How this works
Every actor in the corpus has a pre-computed event index that loads once when the page opens (~1.3 MB gzipped). Filter changes redraw the chart locally — no server round-trips, no telemetry.
Markers are sized by editorial importance (1–10 scale) and colored by the first capture lane on each event. Dense rows scale down marker size proportionally so 1,000+ events still render legibly. Click any marker to open its full record.
The URL state is canonical — copying the address bar gives anyone the exact same view. Use it as a citation in articles, footnotes, or social posts.
