Genuinely shocked we’re still getting accurate jobs numbers
Trump lost jobs to distract us from the higher prices
“With Iran, Obama Displayed ‘The Art of the Deal.’ Trump Didn’t.”
My @washingtonmonthly.com look at why a deeply insecure Trump couldn’t strike a deal with Iran and can’t quit lying about the president who could

Good look at the varied reaction to the Iran attack from European leaders

The Justice Department released *some* of the missing files, namely FBI interview notes from the woman alleging Epstein trafficked her as a young teen to Trump, Trump sexually assaulted her, and then she later endured a series of threats not to talk. Very dark reading www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...
To be a Republican elected or appointed official in the Trump era is to never know for sure if emulating the behavior of your leader will get you fired, promoted, or pardoned.
From the new Epstein drop
Conveniently timed
Additional Epstein files involving uncorroborated accusations made by a woman against President Trump that DoJ said had been mistakenly withheld during an earlier review have now been released. apnews.com/article/epst...
Ro Khanna put it straight to me after the failed vote on the War Powers Act resolution.
"“But basically, now that Republicans have become the party of regime change wars and the Democrats are the anti war party."

Gas prices are now higher than when Trump took office.
“school building was…damaged by a precision strike that occurred at the same time as attacks on an adjacent naval base…statements that U.S. forces were attacking naval targets near the Strait of Hormuz…suggest they were most likely to have carried out the strike”

Not an upgrade
But not resign
JAKE TAPPER: You're an Epstein survivor. Has President Trump been exonerated by Epstein victims?
DANIELLE BENSKY: I want to be very clear that Trump has not been exonerated.

"I’m not really in the Venn diagram of people who are super flagged for audit. And there’s only like eight and a half people who work at the I.R.S. these days, so I’ll probably leave it."

“President Donald Trump has quietly asked Hill Republicans if he should fire Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem … Trump was said to be especially upset about Noem’s response when Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) pressed her Tuesday about a government-funded ad”
“The reason for the diplomatic outreach to Zelenskyy is that the U.S. has figured out that using a $4 million PAC-3 interceptor missile fired from a Patriot battery to knock down an Iranian Shahed drone costing about $30,000 doesn't make much sense”
Ah, thanks!
“ each Shahed is said to cost $20,000 to $50,000 … the Patriot air defense system, uses interceptors that can cost more than $3 million per shot and are in limited supply”

According to Donald Trump, Talarico is “easy to beat” and also his opponent must run a “PERFECT” race and the GOP can’t afford a runoff for one more second
Crockett comments to NYT
Yea but it's a hypothetical three-way race
The oft-underestimated AZ Gov. Katie Hobbs is leading both of her potential GOP opponents in the latest Noble Predictive Insights poll
Hobbs 42
Biggs 37
unnamed 3rd party candidate 5
Hobbs 44
Schweikert 35
unnamed 3rd party candidate 5

A lot of West Texas overlap between the Bernie ‘20 vote and the Latino vote
“[Talarico] showed up in GOP strongholds he was unlikely to win in a general election but where Democrats told me they had not seen a candidate show up in ages.”
Crockett concedes: “This morning I called James and congratulated him on becoming the Senate nominee. Texas is primed to turn blue and we must remain united because this is bigger than any one person.”
