Q: “You worried about gas prices?”
TRUMP: “No. Short excursion.”
Q: “Still projecting up to 6 weeks?”
TRUMP: “Whatever it takes.”
So… not a short excursion then?
Also - whatever it takes… to do what?

Dear Russia,
Iran's fire is making oil prices spike.
Spiking oil prices makes economic problems for us, so we're making it easier for you to sell more oil.
In sum, Iranian military success against us reduces economic pressure on you.
Just, you know, FYI.
Sincerely,
The geniuses leading America
There is a legal provision in immigration law that someone married to a US citizen can stay in the US while there visa is pending. Immigration officials have long recognized it to allow residency during the wait time. The DHS has just stopped following this part of the law.

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?
CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.
NEWS: A Justice Dept. line attorney in North Carolina fabricated quotes in court filing, causing judge to order hearing to consider sanctions and holding entire US attorney’s office jointly responsible.

NEW: ICE tackled + arrested Juanita Avila, an Oregon shop owner who is a legal permanent resident and had her green card in her pocket.
When she asked through sobs why they didn't believe her, one masked agent replied: “Because they lie all the time.”
Video + interview with her and her daughter:
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."
the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year
the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

DOJ lawyers hunt for pretext to raid Cuba — amid fears of 'dramatic' breach of protocol

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's response to US troops dying
since nobody in the Trump administration has real job duties, here's "Secretary of State" Marco Rubio pontificating on college sports today as part of Trump's roundtable event, as though this is his area of expertise
One of my old-school conservative views is that the government has no business being involved in college sports or any sports.
That’s out of fashion.
SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

Trump gets angry at Fox News' Peter Doocy for asking about Russia helping Iran to kill Americans during his roundtable on college sports.
Trump: "What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else."
Priorities for the US Commander in Chief.
In the 13 months since Trump took office, the economy has created a net total of 198,000 jobs compared with 1.4 million created in the last 13 months of the Biden administration. data.bls.gov/pdq/SurveyOu...
“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.
He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.
The Washington Post Breaking News Post Exclusive 27 minutes ago Justice Department targets Cuban officials, aims for indictments The effort to bring charges against Cuban officials coincides with President Donald Trump saying that his administration is eyeing Cuba as the next country whose government might be overthrown, following the capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro in early January and the killing of Iran's supreme leader on Saturday.
A regime that values domestic and international violence above the rule of law is unsustainable.
"As last month's jobs report was just released moments ago, with the economy adding 92,000 jobs in February"
"Actually, we lost 92,000 jobs"
"OK, so that was wrong in the script"
Trump on terrorist attacks in America: “Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die."
Rep. Tony Gonzales, a Texas Republican accused of coercing a staff member into a sexual relationship before she killed herself, said he would not seek re-election.
I will miss Kristi Noem's inimitable constitutional insights, as when, asked by Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H. at a Senate hearing to define "habeas corpus," she replied, "Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country."
What a surprise.

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
