Hey my fellow Democrats, β€œAbolish ICE” is not β€œDefund the Police.” Defund the police was stupid politically and horrible policy. But ICE isn’t the police. ICE is the antithesis of law enforcement. And most Americans know that. So come on my fellow Dems…have the courage to say β€œAbolish ICE.”

Parents Tried to Shield Their Children From Vaccines. Instead They Got Measles.

At Global Academy in Spartanburg, SC, only 21% of students were vaccinated against measles. Now Spartanburg is ground zero for the largest measles outbreak since 2000, when the virus was declared eliminated in the US. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/03/u...

Anti-Trans Democrats Blown Out In North Carolina Primary Election Anti-trans Democrat Nasif Majeed lost to Veleria Levy, who ran on a pro-LGBTQ+ platform. Other conservative Democrats lost as well on primary day.

Worth reading. And someone should tell Gavin Newsom that if his position on trans rights and trans access to medical care doesn't change, he'll need to find a job in a different field, because Democrats will reject him.

The shadow covers about 60% of the moon. The weather's changing -- clouds are moving in from the ocean. The clouds appear to be standing still, and the moon appears to float, bow forward, into the clouds. Amazing optical illusion. I have never seen this before.

The United States bombed a girl's elementary school in Iran. There were over 150 dead, and over 90 injured. Israel bombed a hospital. Collateral damage? Mistakes were made? And yes, American soldiers have died, as Iran retaliates by bombing U.S. bases in the region. FFS.
