🚨 In addition to The Guardian, CNN provides another catalog of incompetence by the Trump administration that puts all of us at risk especially now with his illegal war of choice in Iran

Child abuse. The Marshall Project reported in December that at least 3,800 children under 18 had been booked into ICE since Donald Trump returned to office. More than 1,300 children were held last year for longer than 20 days.

Mamdani Chooses His Words Carefully After Alleged Terror Attack

One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

πŸ”₯ A catalog of incompetence by Trump’s cabinet. β€œWe have never seen quite the collection of clowns, cranks, and crooks that Trump has assembled.”
MarkWayne Mullin is the latest nominee for the clown car.

It was the Times investigation and analysis that revealed it was a Tomahawk.

Those who have tamped down concerns about the SAVE Act’s chance of passage in the Senate are wrong. Keep your eyes on the prize. The potential for a blowout in 2026 is top of mind for Trump, and there are only a few ways to avoid it.

Call your Senators. 202-224-3121.

This is a disgrace and in violation of the law. I’m glad the officers are continuing their lawsuit.

Trump has made billions from the presidency and he is now using the services for our military dead as an opportunity to sell his branded merchandise (the cap). He should not be wearing headwear of any kind at this moment, let alone something he sells on the internet. This is indecent.

Don’t let Fox get away with it this time. Spread the word.

Fox & Friends Weekend replaced footage of Trump attending yesterday’s dignified transfer with a clip from 2025.

They clearly didn’t want their audience to see him disrespecting fallen soldiers wearing a baseball cap.

Trump’s War on Iran Is Illegal Neither a future threat nor regime change can be legal justification for war without congressional authorization.

The Iran war is OPENLY illegal. It’s not close!

@judgeluttig.bsky.social & I will discuss Sunday at 8a ET on @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social with @jonathancapehart.bsky.social @eugenedaniels2.bsky.social & Jackie Alemany

We also analyzed the violations in our article on @contrariannews.org πŸ‘‡

A Distric Court judge has ruled that Kari Lake was not legally in charge of the US Agency for Global Media, and that actions she took while claiming to be in that role are also not legal, including her attempts to fire people

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.

In hindsight, Markwayne Mullin was auditioning for Noem’s job by defending ICE killing Alex Pretti.

Supporting lawlessness paid off.

🎯 Excellent analysis. β€œThe two day grilling that Kristi Noem endured on Capitol Hill this week wasn’t just oversight. It was the political equivalent of a public autopsy. Her firing by Trump was less a sudden decision than the inevitable final act of a long running train wreck.β€πŸ”—

Predictably, Iran β€œis attacking countries whose prosperity depends on being open, using their connections to the west for leverage. And Dubai is its nearest, most clearly westernised target, vulnerable to pressure because it is built on people transactional enough to move where the money does.”

Listen again threw me off the point I thought you were making. Besides my comments were not directed at you. Thanks for the conversation and have a great day.

It was wrong. The majority of the founders owned slaves so to say they weren’t pro slavery is inaccurate.
