I’m sure Trump anticipated all of this happening and has a great plan.
Are you feeling tired and grumpy after losing an hour of sleep? Well, I have just the thing to cheer you up
💫A roundup of Idaho legislature stories!💫
That's right, this is your chance to catch up on last week's wild ride before a new week starts

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.
Amid concerns over rising electricity prices and environmental damage, lawmakers in at least 11 states have introduced legislation this session that would temporarily ban data centers. Via @stateline.org rhodeislandcurrent.com/2026/03/08/r...
If you want to understand how Trump's self-created crisis in Iran fits into his foreign policy, revisit our deep-dive into our End Times president.
In a scathing review, the top US medical journal's editorial board warned that the "destruction that Kennedy has wrought in 1 in office might take generations to repair."
Reminder: last year the 🍊💩 regime gutted the VA and now they have wars and military action jn 8 countries and are likely adding Cuba next. The need for the VA is expanding exponentially yet the support for our troops no longer exists. This regime dos not take care of veterans. #pinks #sheshed
Two veteran journalists produced a documentary that showed evidence of war crimes in Gaza. But the BBC refused to air the film. Why?
The latest from our friends at @revealnews.org and @kcrw.com:
The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.
So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️

Cubans are in the dark, literally. Trump’s fuel blockade has left thousands without electricity, and people are taking to the streets in protest. His response? He called it Cuba’s “last moments of life.” These are 11 million human beings, not a takeover target. 🕯️
El pueblo cubano no está solo. 🇨🇺
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

"The Man in the High Castle" by Philip K. Dick asks what humanity, morality and creativity look like in the face of evil. "He’s asking you to experience a kind of vertigo," says author Jonathan Lethem. "It allows you to think 'what if I'm reading the present wrong?'" #VelshiBannedBookClub #Velshi
We have enough natural energy on this spinning planet to fuel humanity. The science, math, and tech turned out to be the easy part. Overcoming our fear and standing up to entrenched money and power have turned out to be way more difficult.
YESSSSSSS. Thank you Norm.
"Hope is coming home." To Chicago, that is, when the Obama Presidential Center opens, about two weeks before America's 250th birthday. And visitors will look up and see "three simple, powerful words: You are America." Listen to him talk about this.
The bill faced opposition from associations representing county sheriff’s offices and local police departments, who said the 287(g) program should be optional, mainly because of costs associated with forcing agencies to enter into them. #idleg #idpol

A federal judge ordered the Department of Homeland Security to return or replace property taken from unlawfully arrested ICE detainees and released without their belongings, giving the government 30 days to comply.
Chicago, IL
ICE abducted a US citizen when she came home from a trip to Turkey. Sundas "Sunny" Naqvi was born in Evanston, Illinois, and is being held in an ICE detention center.
ICE told her family they don’t know where she is. Her iPhone pings from within the ICE building. Protests are outside.
“This data belongs to the American people, who need to know what is being done in their name. Donald Trump, Russell Vought, Doug Burgum, and the rest of this corrupt administration are trying to use your public lands to erase history and undermine science.” Link to data: archive.org/details/nps-...
Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.
Measles is a highly contagious virus. It’s also one we know how to contain. But as cases in the US accelerate past 1000, the Trump admin is refusing to take obvious steps to mitigate the spread. My latest.

Book titled "The Forty Years War: The Rise and Fall of the Neocons, from Nixon to Obama"
They'll have to change this book's title to "The Sixty Years War: The Rise and Fall and Rise of the Neocons".
Military insiders fear President Donald Trump just signaled a potential Iran deployment after the U.S. Army abruptly yanked the elite 82nd Airborne Division's headquarters from a major training exercise this week.
Immigration as an issue has been transformed from a notable Trump strength into one of his most glaring weaknesses. We’ve learned that most Americans value what immigrants bring to this country. It’s been heartening to see. trib.al/yfAztJ2
