Donald Trump says the arch will commemorate America’s 250th birthday, but let’s be honest: It will commemorate Donald Trump. trib.al/qIc3uRH

A jury has ruled that Live Nation-Ticketmaster is an illegal monopoly. A judge will determine whether or not to break the company up, in addition to other damages. This is a big deal. Remember that the Trump admin tried to settle the lawsuit with a slap on the wrist — but state AGs said no way.

CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS: "We need more religion in politics." [Pope uses religion to criticize Trump.] CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS: "Keep your religion out of our politics!!!"

I just think I should be able to attend a World Cup game in the United States for less money than it would cost for me to fly to Europe and watch a Champions League match, airfare, hotel, and tickets included.

😡😡

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

Reagan’s OMB Director:

THIS SUMS IT UP AS WELL AS ANYONE CAN:

This. It's always about the revenue (Trump grift).

My latest in @thebulwark.com Seems appropriate today.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

Reminder this guy is still doing the worst possible stuff to our most vulnerable

He skipped church. Dropped the F-bomb. Praised Allah. On Easter. You can’t make this up. The man tweets war threats while you hunt eggs with your kids. THIS is your president, America. Wake up.

Christianity is the biggest, most profitable scam in America.

Okay, again... this is how TF you write a GD'ed headline!!!

This is absolutely fantastic. ht: @maddenifico.bsky.social

Someone needs to tell the American people what's going on in the Pentagon, and it obviously won't be Pete Hegseth, who is at war with America's senior military officers. My latest: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

"Dumping the Army Chief of Staff in the middle of a war is a reckless move even by Hegseth’s standards," @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues:

I’ve been around the army for 53 years. Never been more pessimistic about the health of the institution — it’s likely to get much worse over the next 34 months. Rebuilding the norms and ethics of the profession is going to take a generation+.

The Bondi firing will get all the attention but what Hegseth is doing with the upper echelons of the military is much more dangerous over time than Bondi’s tenure as AG. And it won’t get 1% of the coverage. Someday it will get a lot of coverage, and those will be dark days.

A country where Flag Officers are dismissed on the whim of a president or a secretary of Defense -- and where it's tolerated by those in a position to stop it -- is a country in decline

may this define her for the rest of her life. she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired. girl, bye.

The US military is well on its way to becoming a partisan political rogue federal agency just like all the others, largely because retired Republican veterans in Congress and elsewhere betray their oaths to the Constitution by remaining silent.

BREAKING Trump’s executive order directing federal agencies to stop funding NPR and PBS is “unlawful and unenforceable,” a federal judge ruled. Doc buff.ly/WcnQN4A

Criminal. Impeach him.

Great piece by @gregsargent.bsky.social in @newrepublic.com on the "Christian" nationalist bombast that has sorrounded the Iran war, right down to the celebration of macho power and violence... newrepublic.com/article/2083...

Trump is weak — he knows it and so does everyone watching. We can all do our part to hasten his fall by making Saturday a historic demonstration of our power and his weakness: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Trump’s own former lawyer just called him a “demented narcissist” on live TV — because Trump celebrated Mueller’s death today. The people who know him best keep warning us.

Pathetic sociopath Donald Trump has just given all of us permission to celebrate the death of someone we didn't like. I'm hoping that license comes in handy very, very soon.

“We can’t last 34 more months of what we’ve seen in the last 14. We’re fucked if this guy serves out his term. He’s gonna trash everything once and for all.”

I am one of the 21 million. No valid passport currently (expired years ago). No easy access to birth certificate at my age. I have voted in every election since 1978. This act would end my voting. The SAVE Act is a poll tax. The SAVE Act is voter suppression.

21 million Americans don't have ready access to the documents the Save Act demands. Half of Americans don't even own a passport. This bill doesn't stop fraud — it stops citizens. Spread the word. #SAVEActTaxesVoting

Wow

He wants “patriotic” coverage of the Iran war. He doesn’t understand: In a democracy, coverage that asks difficult questions of the government is itself “patriotic.” trib.al/U0KRrad

Half of Americans do not have passports; getting one costs at least $165, plus photos, and requires … a birth certificate or certificate of naturalization. trib.al/JUjTUWP

“The ruling brought an abrupt halt to the major changes that Mr. Kennedy, who has long been skeptical of vaccines, had set in motion, upending national vaccine policy and making sweeping revisions to the recommendations for what shots are given and when.” www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/h...

He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.

A Spanish assembly member in the Madrid parliament says "Do you think the mothers of 160 dead girls would thank Trump for killing their children? You have become a bootlicker of Trump." (The chamber erupted in support.)

He is begging like a dog, one might say. This war and Trump’s alienation of our allies may go down as among the greatest foreign policy failures of any presidency in history.

Feels like the fact that one of the first acts of the not-a-war was to mistakenly bomb a school, killing almost 200 girls, has not gotten as much attention or thought as it deserves. We are altogether too inured to death and destruction

Ground forces in Iran would be the final betrayal of everything MAGA believed he wouldn't do

So, ICE?
