World feeling a little loud lately?
"The earth has music for those who listen." George Santayana.
This hit me because my art is a collaboration with the earth. When we strip away environmental protections for profit, we aren't just losing resources; we’re losing the music that sustains our spirits.
The killing of schoolchildren should shock our conscience and cause us to recoil in horror. A nation whose leaders can so easily shrug off the death of children, no matter the cause, is in need of moral repair. There must be accountability and lessons learned from this tragedy. And we must never forget that Iranian children, too, are children of God. 7:08 PM · Mar 12, 2026 · 7,179 Views
Shouldn't be rare to see this said by a US senator
Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.
You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.
Please read and share. The “grassroots” support for the SAVE America Act is a lie. The campaign pushing this bill is being run by Cleta Mitchell and Scott Presler, two of the most notorious election deniers in the country.
I kid you not... The same White House that forgot that invading Iran might lead it to close the Strait of Hormuz, is now arguing (through Peter Navarro) that war with Iran is a good idea because it'll prevent Iran from closing the Strait of Hormuz.
Maasdam: What we’re doing overseas — spending billions of dollars a day. In two weeks, we probably spent $25 billion. We had an Ayatollah Khomeini to start, and now we have a new Ayatollah Khomeini. And how is this making things in my district more affordable for people? It’s not
About 15 years ago, someone got promoted suggesting that the parachutes on the KC135 wasted space. They were removed.
Dumb stupid idea then. Could they have saved this crew? Who knows. But would be nice to have the option.

The idea that the White House didn't figure Iran might try to cut off oil out of the Gulf is comical. They didn't figure for what has now become the fulcrum point of the whole conflict. Iran's leaders are now showing that regime change can work in both directions.
Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.
1. Donald Trump starts a war with Iran, deeply unpopular with the American people, that causes oil prices to spike.
2. Trump allows Russia to sell its oil at those inflated prices, giving Russia far more money for its war with Ukraine.
3. Trump is Russia First.

Praying for Michigan’s Jewish community and grateful for the quick work of first responders and law enforcement during today’s attack. While we wait for more information, one thing is clear: antisemitism anywhere must be confronted and stopped.

Ted Lieu: “A foreign hacker likely has the Epstein Files — the best way to prevent blackmail of government officials, such as Trump & Howard Lutnick, would be for AG Pam Bondi to stop the cover up & release all the Epstein Files as required by law”
Tax legislation signed by Gov. Bob Ferguson targets the last coal-fired power plant in the Pacific Northwest. But if the coal tax and a related pollution fee work as the Legislature intended, the state treasury will never collect a dime under the new law. washingtonstatestandard.com/2026/03/11/n...
My cat sleeps all day and then keeps me awake all night so this gave me a good laugh.

I’ve not seen a photo of Hagseth that was not unflattering, he is a very ugly person, inside and out.
The fragile insecure flower is crying again.
Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement — way more tolerance for civilian harm.
This is clearly fine with the GOP.
You really need to watch this whole clip. It's amazing.
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) speaks to reporters after attending a closed door briefing with Senate Armed Service Committee at the U.S. Capitol Building on March 10, 2026 in Washington, DC. The committee held the briefing to hear from officials on "Operation Epic Fury" and the ongoing U.S.-Israel conflict against Iran. (Photo by Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images)
Elizabeth Warren: “For the Trump administration to say over & over, there's no money for healthcare – there's no money for childcare – there's no time to pay attention to how families are paying more – but there's a billion dollars a day to go to the Middle East & drop bombs on Iran”
🚨NEW POLL: Most Americans Believe Trump Launched Iran War to Cover Up Epstein Scandal
An exclusive Drop Site/Zeteo/Data For Progress survey also finds likely American voters are split on whether Trump is more responsive to the American people or to Israel.
BREAKING NYT:
An ongoing military investigation has determined that the United States is responsible for a deadly Tomahawk missile strike on an Iranian elementary school, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the preliminary findings. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/u...
Absolutely, flabbergastingly insane.
Chile's new president is extremely right-wing, Catholic, with Nazi roots. But women in Chile are strong and organized. “Women are having abortions right now, they will be doing it tomorrow, and they will keep doing it – no rightwing government will stop that." - member of Con las Amigas y En La Casa
