The Republicans seem to be prepping an argument that any domestic terror attacks in the aftermath of their Iran attacks will be the fault of Democrats for shutting down DHS funding, so I'd like to remind everyone of this appointment:

Today is Liberation and Freedom Day In Charlottesville! March 3, 1865, is when word of liberation from slavery reached the area. A reminder below that much of what we experience as Cville/UVA culture was built by enslaved individuals & families. www.cvillepedia.org/Liberation_a...

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

I think “oblitherate” should be a word, meaning “overwhelmed by idiocy”.

"The power loom, as we know, is inevitable, preordained by God, who works His miracles through the hands of rich and wise inventors. It’s foolish to resist it." 💀 #DHMakes

You could tell all the reporters were very excited about getting to cover their own war because they got to put on the little helmet and vest and they love that shit more than anything. orbooks.com/catalog/a-cr...

LINDSEY GRAHAM: Our goal is to make sure Iran cannot become again the largest state sponsor of terrorism. WELKER: Does the the president have a plan to guarantee that happens? GRAHAM: No. It's not his job.

The Department of Education has hung a massive banner honoring a racist college dropout who built a lucrative career out of targeting professors for harassment

Sure would be a good time to have not laid off your entire Middle East bureau.

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

I love this.

During the marathon campaign rally that Trump called his SOTU speech, he "unveiled" a proposal for the federal government to provide matching contributions of up to $1,000 per year to the retirement accounts of low-wage earners. It's a great idea. It is also already a law signed by Biden in 2022.

after failed military incursion, us government responds with economic sanctions

We obtained the Dilley detention center’s 911 call logs. Among them are pleas for help for toddlers having trouble breathing, a pregnant woman who passed out and an elementary-school-aged girl having seizures.

What connects Jackson Browne, Lou Reed, Greg Allman, 10K Maniacs, Wes Anderson, Andy Warhol, Paul Westerberg, St. Vincent, Glen Campbell, Cher, and Fountains of Wayne? "These Days." Browne wrote it (at 16!), Nico (Christa Päffgen) recorded it in 1967. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/These_D...

Busy days ahead for our new Fraud Czar, JD Vance.

It should be a five alarm for all Americans that the Pentagon is going to the mat to force an AI company to let the Defense Department use its powerful technology to surveil Americans. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/24/u...

Definitely the first State of the Union where the president talked about the military killing unarmed fishermen as a laugh line

He wants you to STFU and take it.. 'This is breathtaking': NY Times editors appalled after discovering Trump censorship plans www.rawstory.com/trump-fcc-26...

RFK Jr is beef jerky that blinks

The price of chicken butter fruit is way down, by the way

Sitting behind Trump, Mike looks serene and happy, JD looks mad (and honestly confused). Two angels, both evil.

Could it be more apt that this mad pedo king has an evangelical Johnson as his speaker?

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Any insight onto why this isn't being treated as the biggest scandal in the history of the presidency? Shouldn't this be the ONLY story right now? www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...

Moms For Liberty named RJ May the South Carolina Legislator of the Year for 2023 for his efforts to protect children from the evils of the LGBTQ community. He was just sentenced to 17.5 years in federal prison followed by 30 years of supervised probation for distributing child pornography.

Happy 88th Birthday to Ishmael Reed! The noted poet, novelist, and essayist has also released a jazz album. youtu.be/1R_TfcJihec

Jared Kushner is at diplomatic meetings. He's not elected. Not confirmed. Not accountable. WHO voted for him? The Senate didn't confirm him. So why is he in these meetings? FOREIGN POLICY IS NOT A FAMILY BUSINESS.

Do you know how much the typical worker would be making today if their wages had grown as much as CEO pay? This graph holds the shocking answer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lPPsrAMtTI

a guy who claimed to be named John Barron and sounded a lot like Trump called into C-SPAN to complain about the Supreme Court's tariff decision and call Hakeem Jeffries "a dope" (John Barron is a pseudonym Trump has used for himself when talking to journalists)

good news everyone, supreme court justices are beholden to their corporate benefactors over their fascist overlords

THIS 👇is pure EVIL.

BREAKING: I read the new version of the “Save America Act” (S. 1383) so u don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Point 1 is new. It requires that all 50 states send their voter rolls to the DHS to run thru DHS’s faulty “SAVE” voter purge program. Points 6 & 7 are new too. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE 1/

GEORGIA — “beloved teacher” Dr. Linda Davis killed in a car crash as ICE chased a man through the streets: www.wtoc.com/2026/02/16/s... Even the ICE release (which blames Dems🤔) says his only crime was being undocumented: www.ice.gov/news/release...

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

@lastweektonight.com delivers a great rundown on Noem’s DHS in just over half an hour: youtu.be/5-KDUOHEZFk?...

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

BREAKING: Donald Trump has reportedly been fuming all weekend over how everyone keeps calling his administration the “Epstein Administration.”

Right-wing Heritage Foundation’s own data shows fewer than 100 noncitizens voted since 1982 (!!!) This is not a real problem. “The SAVE ACT is a Trojan horse to nationalize elections”: open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...

None of this is normal

A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody.   This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.   Not one dime for this cruelty. www.cbsnews.com/amp/chicago/...

30 countries use mail voting

Serious question. Does anyone actually believe the statistics the government is handing out about employment? The wife and I think it’s absolute bullshit.

As we dig into this scandal, can we revisit the question about why the president's son-in-law, who has no formal role in this administration, keeps showing up at high-level negotiations with actual world leaders?

CBP didn’t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old. “8 hours after the girl & her father were taken into custody, she began having seizures & her body temperature was measured at 105.7 degrees by emergency medical technicians. shorturl.at/d2OTJ

that’s it, i’ve finally taken my best photo of all time 😅 (this chubster is an unapologetic beggar so don’t feel bad for him) 🧪🌍 #bird #birb

She is an empty suit, of course. And an absolute nasty piece of cornbread. She is also, to my somewhat trained ear, absolutely, positively terrified here. She is either intimidated by the process or deeply anxious about her relationship with her boss. Or both. But she is terrified.

“It is proper, constitutional, and legal for a federal grand jury to indict a sitting president for serious criminal acts that are... contrary to, the president’s official duties. In this country, no one... is above the law.” --Kenneth Starr (May 13, 1998) www.nytimes.com/2017/07/22/u...

CNN confirms what MSNBC reported live a few hours ago: DOJ is surveilling Dem lawmakers when they go to the DOJ to search unredacted Epstein files.
