Just like George W, Trump lied about the rationale for war and just like George W, Trump is playing golf while Americans die.

Season 1 of The Diplomat was all about what an astoundingly bad idea it would be to start a war with Iran

Like eight episodes of nope, tremendous effort on all sides to avoid it

And these dudes are like fuggit let’s go

Black and white photo of four kittens spilling out of a basket that seems to be partially full of sticks or vines or something. They’re all short haired, and there is a black haired tuxedo, two tabbies, and what looks like a white and calico. Two of them look remarkably grumpy, and the other two seemed kind of blank and possibly confused.

Historians agree that the real Pandora’s Box was likely a basket of grumpy kittens. Postcard from my collection, mailed 1904.

CCS School Board Meeting - 3/5/26 YouTube video by Charlottesville City Schools

amidst everything, real proud of the parents & neighbors who turned out to tell the school board we (still!) don't want cops in our schools 🥹

Did you know you can watch Monarch: Legacy of Monsters and it’s absolutely soothing watching kaiju chew people up compared to the actual news

Why Trump Is Partnering With Christian Nationalists | Robert Reich Donald Trump keeps comparing himself to Jesus.Whether he actually has a messiah complex or is just conning his supporter

Top U.S. military commanders have reportedly told their troops that Trump's War on Iran will "cause Armageddon and mark Jesus' return to earth."

It's yet another example of the dangerous relationship Trump has cultivated with Christian nationalists.

Come on, Iran. Just play along. He’ll even tell you what to say.

New York is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam AG Letitia James will head an "independent assessment" of what happened to the Blind Rohingya refugee who Border Patrol dumped in Buffalo.

New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.

Shah Alam was found dead in late February.

Here in Cook County, IL, there's still no announced state or county investigation into the ICE agents who killed Silverio Villegas González last September. We don't even know their names.

Chicagoans demand FBI investigation into man's ICE shooting death in Franklin Park Chicagoans are demanding that the FBI open an independent investigation into Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez's shooting death.

Locals, meanwhile, have demanded an investigation from the FBI.

This made-for-instagram video probably has about 20% of the the bsky version does. Political content is suppressed there; I have a hunch that words like “censorship” and “disinformation” are too.

I’m so tired of spending hours on content that doesn’t even get shown to my followers 😩

I am planning on this being my first protest back from cancer treatment. I hope to see every single one of yinz there. I'll be the tall bald guy covered in tattoos and caryying an American Flag and the battle flag of the USMC

Cook County State’s Attorney Eileen O’Neill Burke is catching up with peers on ICE oversight efforts • The TRiiBE Local prosecutors in Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Texas and Arizona announced a joint effort to counter federal overreach weeks before the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office announced its new...

And re: the new policy on investigating federal immigration agents' potential misconduct CCSAO put out last month:

It specifically says "State's Attorney's do not serve the primary role of investigator in criminal cases and defer to law enforcement agencies to perform investigative duties."

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

My report:

It suddenly makes sense that Putin at first appeared to abandon his number 1 ally Iran. Only such a massive increase in the price of oil can save him form the mounting criticism he is surely facing from his failures in Ukraine

This is how forever wars are financed… with mountainous debts we leave to our children.

I hate when even NPR misleads with even things like this. MAGA is at best 28% of the population (125,400,000). 44% of MAGA does not even reach his votes tallied in 2024 benchmark.

JUST SAY ONLY 55 MILLION MAGAts SUPPORT THE WAR IN A NATION OF 330,000,000

🤣🥳

Athletes Keep Letting Trump Make Fools Out of Them Trump’s “College Sports Roundtable” is Friday. It’s the latest example of how those in sports who deal with him wind up looking stupid.

Trump is having a field day manipulating dumb jocks and senseless stakeholders.

“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.

He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.

GVSU faculty, staff and students write to trustees expressing distrust in university’s ‘direction’ • Michigan Advance Faculty, students and staff at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids on Friday sent a letter to the university’s Board of Trustees expressing concerns about the financial decisions made at the...

Faculty, students and staff at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids on Friday sent a letter to the university’s Board of Trustees expressing concerns about financial decisions, saying they see the university “drifting away from our decades-long tradition of student-centered stewardship.”

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

DOJ aims to speed up voter roll case as deadline for removing voters looms "That ship has already all but sailed,” Michigan’s lawyers wrote.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces, officials say The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.

Russia is providing Iran with targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East, the first indication that another major U.S. adversary is participating even indirectly — in the war, according to three officials familiar with the intelligence. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Coffee, straight out of my nose.

Trump will absolutely not stop unless he is stopped. It wouldn't take much to stop him—he's a coward. But if those who have institutional power don't act, the current crisis will get even worse. He has no self-control and is giddy over the death and suffering he's inflicting.

We are starved for dignity
