So Iran now has, perhaps for the first time, information about the location of our most sensitive covert sites in the region.
A completely foreseeable, unnecessary consequence of unnecessary war with Iran.
Americans skipped the rally-around-the-president stage this time. JFK gained 13 points after Cuban Missile Crisis, LBJ 8 after bombing Hanoi, GHW Bush 18 during Gulf War, GW Bush 8 after Saddam captured, Obama 11 after OBL killed. Trump gained 0 since Iran. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/u...
Candidate Trump promised to lower gas prices, lower food prices, lower unemployment, immediately release the Epstein files and never start a war with Iran.
How’s that working out?
The midterms can’t come soon enough.
Tragedy and farce, at the same time.
Interesting that among the few advance plans we made are those that benefit Russia. See my longer essay on Oligarchic Corridors.

Russia Is Helping Iran Attack The US, The War Is Spinning Out Of Control - America Needs A Course Correction, Now

Trump is a titanic f*ck. A thread 👇
Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.
Russia helps Iran track American forces.
And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.
Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

If we examine the origins the the war on Iran, we get an inkling of a closed domain of international oligarchs, exploiting the state’s power and patriotic sentiment, while creating a world order in which the American state is much weaker. An oligarchical corridor.

WMD all over again. This is not about politics or religion, it's about two convicts avoiding jail time.What happened to the Kushner 'whistleblower' case ? The Geneva meeting was nothing short of espionage. Sharing State secrets with Middle East players ?
Of course they are.

These wars are funding the Billionaire class. Ukraine, VENZL, Iran.
A story that is not being told enough about the Iran War is that the U.S. and Israel have totally different, incompatible goals. The U.S. says it’s targeting weapons systems. Israel wants regime change and a failed state. This conflict leads to total incoherence.
“If you vote for Kamala there’ll be high inflation, unemployment, and endless wars.”
These wars are funding the Billionaire class. Ukraine, VENZL, Iran.
America is in need of a major course correction:
- Qatar warns new war could "bring down the economies of the world"
- Disastrous jobs report, inflation is rising, fiscal condition worsening
- Russia is helping Iran attack Americans
Need a better way👇

Trump’s message to the American people about this war of choice boils down to this: Good luck out there. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

A filmmaker followed me during my last year in Congress while I served on the Jan 6 Committee.
The result was the documentary “The Last Republican.”
It’s now free on YouTube.

No-one actually expects gas prices to rapidly return to normal.
"...the hate of men will pass. And dictators die and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die liberty will never perish...". Charlie Chaplin.
Russia is helping Iran attack America, and Ukraine is helping America defend itself from Russia and Iran.
It is time to renew our support for Ukraine and Europe, and stop Trump's ongoing appeasement of Putin. Congress must now revive the Russia sanctions bill, get serious here.

Read @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social on the "intellectually insecure reactionaries" around Epstein. Much here that I did not know

An Alien out to destroy the world.
Actually?
Prior to the new Gulf War, our economy was slowing, inflation rising, our fiscal condition deteriorating.
Now we are going to prices rise further, the economy slow further, our fiscal condition worsen. All of this makes what Trump is doing in the Middle East look far more reckless.
This is not good.
Here's the point to remember about the brutal negative revisions in today's job market report: They aren't saying the labor market showed green shoots that withered. It's saying that there never were any green shoots. They were an illusion.
