⚡️US allow countries to buy limited Russian oil supplies for 30 days.

🚨 Sen. Stec is using the April 1st budget deadline to attack NY’s Climate Law, citing a "disaster" that doesn't exist.
The real disaster? Staying dependent on fossil fuel spikes & rising health costs. NY needs an investment in our future, not a retreat to the past. 🛑

We've seen another morning of increased ICE activity with DHS helicopter out and about in Chicagoland.
Feds have taken people from Humboldt Park and Ravenswood. Vehicles also seen in Rogers Park. ICE watchers are asking north side neighbors to get outside and keep an eye on landscapers & laborers.
Americans can all rest easy knowing that while this fresh Mideast war may lead to asymmetrical terror attacks throughout the world and on U.S. soil, and household budgets will be strained to a breaking point by doubling the cost of filling a gas tank, the suits at Exxon and Texaco will be just fine.
MAGA Murder Regime.
Palantir CEO Alex Karp: "What makes America special right now is our lethal capacities. Our ability to fight war."
UPDATE: A tense, day-long standoff outside a South Burlington house ended Wednesday night with federal immigration agents removing three people inside and a series of violent clashes between police and hundreds of activists who tried to impede the apprehension.

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.
They’ll play this in museums in future.

Trump’s war of choice against Iran has been a self-inflicted political wound, allowing Democrats to connect their affordability case to literally the most visible price signals in the economy.
@lauren-egan.bsky.social explains how rising fuel costs are reshaping the midterm message.
(Reuters) - U.S. intelligence indicates that Iran's leadership is still largely intact and is not at risk of collapse any time soon after nearly two weeks of relentless U.S. and Israeli bombardment, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

Bellingcat has geolocated eight videos showing US Tomahawks cruise missiles in Iraq heading towards Iran. On Tuesday Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani spoke with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and stressed that Iraqi airspace and territory should not be used.
Le voluntarily went to work for ICE last year and then melted down in open court when judges held her to account for her client’s contemptuous conduct. Kinda doubt that the People of Minneapolis are going to choose her over badass @ilhanmn.bsky.social
…Donald Trump cares about Donald Trump, and he’s opened up his own country and many others to yet another generational war. You do not have to fall for it.”
“Donald Trump does not care about regime change in Iran. Donald Trump does not care about the stability of the Middle East. Donald Trump couldn’t tell you one single fact about Iran that doesn’t line his pockets….
This is a technical story with stunning strategic implications. It is quite possible the US launched a massive war because Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff lacked the technical expertise to even understand what the Iranians were offering in negotiations. Absolute idiocy.

Don’t let them trick you. The SAVE Act is not a voter ID bill. It’s a voter SUPPRESSION bill.

"On the topic of immigration and border enforcement, Mullin took positions that were directly contradicted by publicly available evidence or were deeply insensitive to the families of the ICE victims. He has never recanted or walked them back."
New York state lawmakers want to keep their foot on the gas — er, accelerator pedal.
Senate and Assembly Democrats are so far rejecting Governor Kathy Hochul’s push for a budget-season rollback of the state’s climate mandates.
The number of people detained by ICE rose by an astonishing 58% (25,200) between 2025 and 2026; expanded immigration detention accounts for virtually all of the growth in mass incarceration since our last report. www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/pie2...

Trump's Iran war is breaking up the MAGA coalition. Among young and nonwhite working class, only *one in five* approve, per new data I've obtained. That's extraordinary and heartening to see. It's also delivering another blow to Trump's "realignment." 1/

Exactly this. Primary challengers are good and make people argue their case.
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"
Leaders around the world appear to be struggling to respond to an American administration that is no longer constrained by pretending to care about human lives, the law, or the cost of its hubris. trib.al/1Cwdk19
Whoa. This is big. "The U.S. Navy has refused near-daily requests from the shipping industry for military escorts through the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the war on Iran, saying the risk of attacks is too high for now." www.reuters.com/world/middle...
