I rarely do this, but here goes.
Dems should have VERY clear messaging on supplemental tied to the ouster of Whiskey Pete, Jared, and Witkoff. They've all ABSOLUTELY bolloxed the situation and if Trump wants $$, he needs to get rid of all of them.
NEWS: The Trump administration is forcing transgender inmates to detransition by implementing a new policy that would withhold their medical treatment in a way that puts clinicians in conflict with ethics and patients in danger.

He allegedly said "he needed help transferring data from a thumb drive “to his personal computer so that he could ‘sanitize’ the data before using it at [the company.] ... [and] that he expected to receive a presidential pardon ... ." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.
And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.
• No government security experience
• No law enforcement background
• No intelligence work
• No military service
• Not even a bachelor’s degree
"It's not a cult!" i scream, while refusing to take off Dear Leader's size 19 clown shoe.
4 days ago, NPR reported that the Trump administration is still withholding, in violation of the Epstein files statutes, 37 pages of documents that implicate him in the rape of a child. This should end his presidency. www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...
This sounds like somebody who grew up rich trying to imagine what poor people sound like.
We know how cash money works FAR BETTER than you do. You might know systems like stocks & IRAs & bonds & trust funds, but we do know cash money. We know SNAP doesn’t buy EVERYTHING at the grocery store.
Explosions, Black Rain, and Dead Birds: Waking Up to War in Tehran
An Iranian playwright describes life in the capital city as bombings by the U.S. and Israel continue into their second week.
For the almost 40 years I've been watching politics Republicans have repeatedly and shamelessly told blatant lies, and the press never called them out on it. Until recently, neither did the Dems, which always puzzled me. It's time to call a lie a lie, and a liar a liar, and call it out every time.
Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"
From the moment this guy entered politics over a decade ago it has felt like one long, drawn-out experiment to see how far it's possible to push the concept of ignoring reality and attempting to create a different one by social media fiat, and we may be close to getting an answer.
DOGE’s mishandling of government data is reckless at best and dangerous at worst.
Reveals like these are EXACTLY why we’re in court over DOGE’s unlawful access to the sensitive personal information of millions of people.
Few wordsmiths in the American cultural canon can bend genres like Patti Smith, the artfully rebellious rocker, poet and author who, at 79, seems destined to keep spinning gold out of her maverick life. Smith visited Chicago on Monday to promote her latest memoir.
SCOOP: White House tells House Republicans to stop talking about mass deportations
Must read: xAI is poisoning Mississippi, captured via thermal imaging.

Benny Johnson gives Rand Paul an open mic to make the case against Trump's war-mongering and fiscal irresponsibility.
(this is an extremely rare thing on Johnson's show, which is as safe of a space as there is for Trumpers)
Back to this again.
The Canadian politicians and right wing media types who flirt with this bullshit have to be the biggest fucking marks in the history of fucking marks.
I think Trump is cooked—and it’s helpful for us to say so, repeatedly and often.
Authoritarians use fear to compel obedience. Once people start thinking about what they’ll do once he’s gone, they’re much less likely to obey his commands.
QUINTANILLA: Do we think the Russians have shared intel about US military assets, and if so, why would we be giving waivers on oil sanctions?
WITKOFF: I can tell you that on the call with POTUS, the Russians said they have not been sharing. That's what they said. We can take them at their word.
Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.
Fraud. What you are describing is fraud.
NEW: In the first appeals court hearing over one of the subpoenas it sent to gender-affirming care providers, Trump's DOJ advanced legal arguments that cast an ominous shadow over the future of access to medications the administration doesn't approve of, including abortion pills.
Once again, one of the most revealing & utterly demoralizing aspects of the last year or so has been the very transparent eagerness of so many of our academic colleagues, administrators, & leaders to reveal just how completely they are uninterested in the actual projects of teaching & research.
Quittr, an app that promises to help men stop watching porn, leaked intimate data on hundreds of thousands of its users, and lied about its security issues, 404 Media can now reveal. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

Schumer: "Iran doesn't have Tomahawk missiles, Donald Trump! The claim is beyond asinine. He says whatever pops into his head no matter what the truth is. And we all know he lies, but on something as formidable as this, it's appalling."
NEW: An events company whose associates helped plan the Jan. 6th insurrection have raked in millions in contracts with the U.S. government since Trump's election.
The firm had previously netted only $50,000 in government contracts over the past decade.
Today’s justification for the Iran war:
“get rid of some evil”
Here's a thread featuring clips of key moments from the DC Metropolitan Police body camera footage of the March 17, 2025 DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace that I obtained as a result of my FOIA lawsuit:
