Spanish PM SΓ‘nchez responds to Trump:

"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

Well, we did it because of the protesters

Nukes

I mean they’re building an ICBM

We did it defensively because Iran was going to attack us

I mean Israel was gonna do it anyway so we did it too

They were gonna attack us because Israel was gonna attack them so we attacked them

One minute, Trump & his bootlickers are calling it a war. The next minute, they’re denying it’s a war. Yea, they really know what they’re doing. Sure they do.

Personal news update: I'm delighted to announce that as of today, I am an actual Bluesky employee! I'll be working to welcome indie media and local govt to Bskyβ€”and supporting those already here.

I'll always want to hear your thoughts on how we can make Bsky the sort of social media we all want!

The latest β€œexplanation” for the war, this time from Rubio:

- we knew Israel was going to attack Iran

- we figured Iran would retaliate against us, coz we’re Israel’s bitch

- so we attacked Iran first

02.03.2026 21:04 πŸ‘ 1416 πŸ” 366 πŸ’¬ 83 πŸ“Œ 24

Rubio's justification for attacking Iran:

Iran would have retaliated against the US if Israel attacked Iran. Therefore the US acted preemptively.

So, why didn't the Trump admin just restrain the principal recipient of US military assistance from launching such an illegal attack in the first place?

Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicitβ€”joining their war instead of talking them down.

This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.

The President made products more expensive for the American people. People are going to tell their senators, we don't like this. So it's time for my Senate colleagues to weigh in on this debate.

The first step to dealing with Trumpism is to ignore everything they say and only watch what they do.

Newsom: He’s a weak president β€” and that weakness is now on display globally. The only card he had left was these tariffs.

His entire economic policy has been mass deportations β€” and that’s beginning to unravel. His broader economic policies have obviously been aided and embedded in these tariffs

Even Kavanaugh’s dissent leans on an oh-well/too-late/sunk-costs defense:

β€œ.. The Court says nothing today about whether, and if so how, the Government should go about returning the billions of dollars. ... That process is likely to be a 'mess.'”

Amazing, though, that what should have been 9-0 is always 6-3, and you always know who two of them are.
Alito and Thomas aren't even bothering to render judgments anymore. They just decide what's good for Trump and defend it.

tweet from @cliftonhowze on twitter

Last night at the #DataCenters meeting in Claremore, Darren Blanchard, who has attended most of these meetings around NE Oklahoma & has some pretty impressive FOIA/ORA skills, was arrested after going over his 3 min. allotted speaking time. First arrest I've seen at one of these.

Maryland, New Mexico Become Latest Blue States to Ban Local Contracts with ICE - Bolts Governors Lujan Grisham and Moore signed laws barring local sheriffs and police from partnering with ICE’s 287(g) program, joining a string of ten states with similar prohibitions.

NEW: Major, BFD action by blue states standing up to ICE.

Maryland, on Tuesday, banned local law enforcement from being part of ICE's notorious 287(g) program.Β 

That automatically forces *9* sheriffs out of their ICE contract!

And New Mexico did the same last week:
