π΅ Democrats flip another seat in the New Hampshire State House.
Democrat Bobbi Boudman wins a special election in a Trump+9 district, after losing the same seat by 14 points in 2024. A 13-point Democratic overperformance.
Inside a $50 million Venezuelan lobbying deal and a court battle ensnaring White House power brokers β including Secretary of State Marco Rubio and chief of staff Susie Wiles.
That is a lot of work
Looking forward to this one @zackpolanski.bsky.social π
We need more of this in our national conversation π
The Tennessee Senate has passed a bill to make it illegal for corporate investors that own 100 or more single-family homes to buy houses in the state's largest counties.
Nashville Democrat's Charlane Oliverβs βHomes not Hedge Funds Actβ passed with only one no vote.
CNN airs compilation of JD Vance on the campaign trail saying he would keep the U.S. out of war in the Middle East. "We're going to stop sending our young people to far away lands. We are not the policemen of the world. Our interests are very much in not going to war with Iran." #IranWar
I respect that youβre religious but why are you bringing your religion onto the floor of Congress? Maybe some of those soldiers were atheists or agnostics. If so, mentioning god in their names would not be appropriate. You can still verbally honor these soldiers. Just Keep your god to yourself.
So you wrote an article on this nonsense?
More ICE human rights violations.
People, including children and the elderly, were held for weeks in Colorado ICE hold rooms, without beds, in clear violation of ICE regulations.
And it gets worseβ¦

When a US missile killed 160 children, president shits-a-lot claimed Iran stole the missile and fired at the school. When asked why he was the only one making this claim, he said "because I just don't know enough about it".
Go ahead. See if you can make this make sense.

BREAKING π¨ π¨ π¨
Ed Martin, an outspoken Trump administration official, is facing attorney discipline proceedings in Washington, DC, for a letter he sent to Georgetown Law about its diversity programs.
www.cnn.com/2026/03/10/p...
A new Wall Street Journal investigation finds DHS is increasingly turning its wrath on U.S. citizens, punishing them for simply filming or observing officers.
Belle Cushing is one of the reporters behind the investigation. She spoke with MPR News guest host Emily Reese about it.
Rand Paul: "As far as reasons for the war, there have been many different ones floated, but none have been very convincing... we were told their nuclear weapons were obliterated, and now we're told their nuclear weapons are just moments away from being a bomb. I don't think the arguments are valid."
If youβre roughly my age, itβs wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
NBCβs Richard Engel: βThe White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commandersβ¦ they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think itβs a joke and put out material like this.β
That was wonderful. For myself, god I donβt want to be that busy. Iβm so tired of being busy all the time with never enough time in the day, in the week to get the βshouldsβ done. I want a retirement of no βshoulds.β If I even do or can retire. Lol
Or sadism.

If they hid the death of Ruben Ray Martinez at the hands of ICE in Texas, how long before they start hiding the deaths caused by their mismanagement of yet another disease outbreak?
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

I grew up 45 min. from NYC & my friend lived in Manhattan. When chatting in 2015 after the obscene golden elevator day and we both said we knew that trump was only running for POTUS to increase his brand recognition (to feed his incessant insecurity & need for attention) and to expand his pocketbook
The Iranian girlsβ school was hit by a US tomahawk cruise missile. NPR has confirmed the footage.

Lewis Bollard @Lewis_Bollard Hidden on page 744 of the farm bill the House Agriculture Committee passed Thursday is a provision that would condemn millions of pigs to a lifetime in gestation crates. Rebranded the 'Save Our Bacon Act,' it's a pork-industry play to wipe out every state law banning the sale of pork from crated pigs β laws the conservative Supreme Court upheld in 2023. Over 85% of Democrats and Republicans oppose these crates. Voters have backed ballot measures to ban them in state after state. The pork industry knows it can't win a straight vote on this. So it's burying the provision in an 800-page bill and hoping no one notices. Contact your senators and representative today and tell them: oppose the farm bill unless the Save Our Bacon Act is stripped out. You can reach them at http://senate.gov and http://house.gov β it takes two minutes and it matters.
This is hideous and horrible, and the people pushing for it deserve to spend the rest of their lives in a cage.
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
Kiley votes in lock-step with Trump's policies so running as an Independent in the newly drawn #CA06 Kiley thinks he can fool voters
He is my representative now and I will be in #CA06 so I will make sure everyone knows Kiley's voting record

I'm glad about this verdict: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...
Iranβs FM Abbas Araghchi told PBS News that talking or negotiating with the US is no longer on the agenda.
He says that despite making progress during previous rounds of negotiations, the US still chose to attack Iran.
You can never trust trump or the son-in-law.
