An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die.

May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.

β€œ.. Asked whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump acknowledges the possibility. β€˜I guess,’ he says. .. β€˜Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

GOODLANDER: I want to give you an opportunity to truthfully answer a very simple question -- who won the 2020 election?

COLBY: I'm not gonna talk about that issue

GOODLANDER: ... You swore an oath to our Constitution

COLBY: I'm not going to be drawn out on an issue of political contention

Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran.

And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program?

This is incompetence. Plain and simple.

β€˜It’s not acceptable’: Will a small town be left $7.8m on the hook for the World Cup? At a meeting of the board that governs the World Cup stadium in Foxborough, promises were made if not accepted

Outside Boston last night, the local government remains concerned they'll be left on the hook for nearly $8mil in World Cup-related security expenses. And still, nobody knows who'll pay.

7 World Cup matches hang in the balance.

Bessent Says Trump’s Tariff Hike to 15% Likely Coming This Week Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that President Donald Trump’s plan to increase a 10% universal tariff up to 15% will likely be done this week.

Words cannot express the insanity of slapping across-the-board inflationary tariffs in the middle of waging an inflationary war. It’s like they’re trying to crash the market or somethβ€” ah, I see now

REPORTER: Yesterday you told us Israel was going to strike Iran and that's why we needed to get involved. But today the president said Iran--

RUBIO: No. Were you there yesterday?

REPORTER: Yes. I asked the question

Trump and his incompetent administration had no plan to get Americans out of danger after their planned attack on Iran.

Now, American citizens are stuck in an active war zone.

This is a complete disaster.

Trump sent our kids into a war of choice from his beach club in Florida.

Americans do not want another endless, costly war in the Middle East. They want health care and lower prices.

So far, we’ve gotten into:

1. The oil-tanker escort business
2. The shipping-insurance business
3. The militia-arms and finance business

And it’s only Tuesday.

How Trump Decided to Go to War

The New York Times, with supporting testimony today from the Secretary of State himself, reports that Israel dragged the United States into war with Iran. This is … not great. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/02/u...

Push from Saudis, Israel helped move Trump to attack Iran President Trump launched a wide-ranging attack on Iran after weeks-long lobbying by an unusual pair of U.S. allies in the Middle East: Israel and Saudi Arabia.

President Trump launched strikes on Iran after a weeks-long lobbying effort by Israel and Saudi Arabia, according to four people familiar with the matter.

U.S. intelligence assessments saw no imminent threat, but regional allies argued to strike.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).
