U.S. national security offices, weakened by firings, confront Mideast war The U.S. military operation in Iran is testing a depleted Justice Department and FBI. Firings of experienced agents and prosecutors have diminished expertise to counter threats.

Crazy to think that these people were doing actual jobs that might have been important

And somehow Democrats are supposed to play along with it because, in the words of Politico's subhed, the nation is "now at war," as if that just happened on its own.

Weigh in: Should this NYT article about Trump’s corrupt β€œpardon industry” have called out the extreme perversion of justice? Or is it better left unsaid? https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/us/politics/schwartz-trump-pardon-industry.html?unlocked_article_code=1.RFA.JwF1.cR6ZsIPqXn55&smid=url-share

Another reason to support court reform is that the Supreme Court, as constituted, is incapable of functionally administering the law. A court that wasn't captured by far right billionaires would've prevented the government from enforcing these at all.

French Laundry chef again scolds Bay Area town over affordable housing project

lmfao Thomas Keller showing up to a community meeting in his chefs jacket to complain about affordable housing being built near his 3 Michelin star restaurant is just beyond parody. what a piece of shit

Hell yeah we're doing Shadow World War 3 between a bunch of nuclear-arm lunatics. I am having a very normal one.

It’s not within the top 10,000 dumbest things that the regime has done in the past few weeks, but it’s looking like Bondi’s β€œthe Dow is 50,000!” is going to go down as some choice famous last words

Again, Donald Trump once knew to pretend to publicly oppose the war in Iraq because it was a no-win quagmire. That he can't see that here is another clear sign his brain is gone.

The Iranian people do not want this.

We lost a stuffy on the walk home from pre-school recently, and it completely vanished in the 10-15 minutes between when we lost it and then realized it was gone and when we retraced our steps. Why don't people just turn these things in or leave them?

Force yourself to stare at this picture for a while.

This child was just as deserving of life as any American child. This family was just as deserving of joy, safety, and possibility as any American family.

We are an evil monster.

It must be fun to be on The Times’ college beat. One day you write an article about how some students with learning disabilities get extra time for their work and the next you’re writing about how college Republicans want to murder Blacks and Jews. These are somehow equivalent in The Times’ mind.

Worse than the worst War on Terror drone strikes. By innocents killed, worse than multiple of the worst drone strike errors combined.

Eventually a missile will get through. You expect to lose assets in a war, it’s just very embarrassing to lose it over pedo grandpas regime change fantasies.
