Hegseth: “I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast.”
In just six days, the Trump administration has advanced at least 10 different rationales for the war in Iran, Marie-Rose Sheinerman and Isabel Ruehl report:
Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
Jobs. Biden v Trump
Tragedy and farce, at the same time.
Prediction: Trump’s new war will be over before No Kings 2.0
A guy who rags about “licking coke off a toilet seat” may not succumb to everyday embarrassment.
We are all going to HAL
Julie K Brown: FBI releases interviews with woman who alleges Donald Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a minor... "A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."
The enforcement of laws against homeless people is costly.
Albuquerque’s Bernalillo County spends ~$169/night to jail inmates — and more if they have significant medical needs.
By comparison, the city’s year-round emergency shelter costs $44/night.
Pres. Obama at the Jackson service:
"We are living in a time when it can be hard to hope. Each day, we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions."
"If we don't step up, no one else will. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him."
That is insane: "Biden’s pardons eliminated roughly $680,000 in financial penalties owed to victims or the government. In contrast, Trump’s second-term pardons have forgiven criminal debts of more than $1.5 billion." www.cato.org/blog/embarra...
So Iran now has, perhaps for the first time, information about the location of our most sensitive covert sites in the region.
A completely foreseeable, unnecessary consequence of unnecessary war with Iran.
Which side is US on? Bombing Iran while supporting Russia?
Interesting that among the few advance plans we made are those that benefit Russia. See my longer essay on Oligarchic Corridors.

MBS "has no love for the Iranian regime," says scholar Bernard Haykel. But the Saudi prince has a lot to fear if Iran ends up a failed state.
Iraqi oil. Syrian oil. Venezuelan oil. Donald Trump has rarely discussed a foreign conflict without musing about what the U.S. can take in return—but he's been oddly silent about Iranian oil, Vivian Salama and Jonathan Lemire report:
“Cheering for epistemic humility gets you no television interviews,” Eliot A. Cohen writes. “But in the early phase of a war, above all, it should be the prudent observer’s battle cry”:
Documents reveal a web of financial ties between Trump officials and the industries they help regulate:
ProPublica is releasing a trove of disclosure records that detail the finances of more than 1,500 Trump appointees who declined to identify former clients.
Teen Roblox creators are raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars a month from simple games, even as major studios cut jobs and cancel blockbusters.
Exactly 👇🏼. It will get you.
I’m demanding that Claude come up with some clever name for this malady.
No Bush among the woods.
Dinner à la “aa”
There's a reason that for years, I've to Trump as "Delusional Donald." The headline below is so crazy and fact-free that everyone should understand:
Seems less than ideal.
Trump Demands ‘Unconditional Surrender’ by Iran www.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/u...
FBI Director Kash Patel fired roughly a dozen agents and staff members who once had ties to an investigation into Donald Trump, including agents who specialized in Iran and its proxies.
Three days after the firings began, the U.S. was bombarding Iran.
Because undocumented immigrants can’t/don’t vote, so their names are not on the voter rolls.
You know who hated wokenesss? The Tehran regime.
