Iran’s military command has responded to Trump’s threat, saying it will strike regional energy infrastructure and desalination plants if the U.S. targets Iranian power plants.

@wyden.senate.gov is right. The government should not be able to buy & access information on my location! Either this is against the law or we need new privacy laws which should be followed!

I am still looking for funding and fellowships that would permit me to monitor/analyze/report on the horrifyingly rapidly-growing trend of small drone attacks on civilians globally, if anyone has suggestions.

Remembering how yesterday he said he was going to wind it down. See, there is no string connecting anything. It’s all flailing now.

a hugely underrated aspect of parliamentary systems is the snap election. far superior to impeachment, which was a dumb design to start with and straight up does not work anymore

“By opposing fascism, Democrats squander the opportunity to help shape fascism,” by David Frum

my large adult son can’t read a menu and behaves like a small child in public, as a 54 year old man, i think this is based and also think it benefits him to tell the world about it

In Columbia Heights, we just held a mutual aid craft show that raised $15k. Handknit hats made by grandmas and original art created far from the front lines made $ to help ppl pay rents. Our tactics continue to diversify and art is a big player.

Also why call it pseudoscience when the are actually still teaching medical racism? Like when I was told in 2024 by my UCSF Cardiologist that Black people have thicker heart muscles and that was why my blood pressure was high.(it was in fact a swollen adrenal gland, heart unrelated).

Yes. It was a formative moment in my adoption of the correct "the media likes trump and tries to help him" theory bsky.app/profile/kief...

the same number of troops have died in this war that died in the evacuation of afghanistan fyi, weird how the media has decided that isn’t a point to drive home this time

we're supposed to believe the Trump administration has spent more than a year doing a mass deportation of the worst of the worst criminals, but also there are sleeper cells of undocumented Iranians in the country that constitute a grave national security threat. the math ain't mathing.

I guess we now all know what we'll post when Trump dies.

corporatism hates archived history because it increases the chance of consumers and labor learning from experience

We did this with tariffs. Now we’re doing this with war. And some insiders are making a fortune off the chaos.

Whenever you ask a government official or a politician something and they say they don’t know or haven’t heard, the VERY NEXT QUESTION should be, “Well, now that you know about it, what are you going to do about it?” Follow up! Dig deeper! Push back! Don’t let them dodge!

And under any other Admin, there would be a plan to help. apnews.com/article/hawa...

There has been virtually ZERO National news coverage of the unprecedented “non hurricane” that’s been storming our islands for over a week! Parts of Maui & Oahu are under still-running red water. Streets have crumbled & fallen into sink holes. We have another 3-4 days before it MAY be over. YOUTUBE

Nothing screams “we’re just winging it” like having to buy oil from Iran while in the middle of a war with Iran.

Their name is Amu TV and there is an account on here with their name that is not very active yet... @amutelevision.bsky.social

No book banning. Ever! Anyone offended by any book can just put it down and not read it. That’s what freedom is

Idk weren't there, like, a dozen movies about this?

This cruelty is being done in our name. Shame on this administration. Shame. 13,000 third country deportees so far. Many were ordered deported decades or even generations earlier, but no admin previously would have considered something as inhumane as this as a means of carrying out a removal.

It seems to be a stupid form of antiestablishmentarianism.

If you have to pay $2.8 billion in damages and it doesn’t remotely impact your bottom line or behavior, it wasn’t enough. #ElonMusk

The problem is that "the US" in this scenario probably means someone like Jared Kushner.

A reporter-free newsroom isn't a newsroom, it's (at best) a content aggregator.

Texas keeps failing to release people from jail when their time is over, leaving people languishing there unable to be released www.texastribune.org/2026/03/19/t...

All children raised in high control, high obedience, rigid expectation, military discipline, or corporal punishment are conditioned under those environments to never question authority figures, to go along to get along, to embrace cognitive dissonance over confronting contradictions...

ABC News reporting that farmers are running out of diesel. There are no reports of coal mines running out of diesel, despite that the mining industry uses 3 times as much as agriculture does.

It's so funny. "The USPS losses money" So does the federal highway commission. But we all understand that if we didn't invest money in this you couldn't drive anywhere. But for some reason we've let shithead delivery companies convince you otherwise.

So RFKjr thinks flu is serious enough to upend your life and move like they did when dry air was one of only effective symptom relief treatments for still deadly tuberculosis, but not serious enough to use a modern treatment that actually reduces deaths, not just symptom severity, of a flu shot....

The genre of public critique where people's life and experiences from their memoir are challenged like true crime click-bait, is only ever helpful to gossip rag publishing...

Empathy is good. There's nothing bad about it. It's what allows you to care about other people. Which is good & what the world needs more of. Can't believe we're having to tell PhDs this.

These are deaths by intentional neglect....they are already death camps, but certainly concentration camps which just means extra-judicial detention. US has been at *no due process*, concentration camps, since even before Kavanagh stops...when DHS started following unconstitutional EOs.

The historical parallel is Benedict Arnold’s popularity before and after he was outed as a foreign spy.

If the co owned the building they forced workers back to office bc otherwise they couldn’t depreciate the asset. If the co rented, they were totally fine having workers WFH bc it made them more profitable.

However much John Roberts cloaks him in unaccountability, doing this remains a very serious federal crime and stories about it should say so.

the media is now telling people to work from home to save on gasoline, immediately after their years-long crusade to tell us why returning to office is best for everyone. this isn't a gotcha, it's an example of how contradicting demands allow the ruling class to blame us no matter what we do

everyone in this story should be in jail, there is no way every employee of DOGE up to and including Musk did not break multiple federal laws in their chaotic tenure

Such a declaration is used only on rare occasions to sidestep the House and Senate committees that review and approve arms transfers. Mr. Rubio’s skirting of that review process twice in less than two weeks is the latest move by the Trump admin to sidestep congressional oversight of the war.

Ah the tried and tested ‘I’ve shit all over the floor and am now calling on the people who use this floor to clean it up’ strategy. Truly masterful.

Bahahaha, Trump is gonna claim that prize for himself. I honestly don't care since neither one of them deserves it, but maybe this slight of ego will finally get Maher to stop sucking up to conservatives, just because they all speak in the same language of white male aggrievance and victimhood...

The US debt is past $40 trillion, yet there's still somehow always money for war. Socialism is cheaper. Universal Healthcare is cheaper. Peace is cheaper.

Imagine the worst landlord you ever had. Then, make it worse. The landlord sells off the wood floor in your dining room, turns a herd of cattle loose on your front lawn and digs up your back yard looking for oil. Now, say hello to Trump’s Bureau of Land Management.

If you are a service member doing medical care for wounded troops, @taskandpurpose.com wants to hear from you. Please reach me on signal at nslayton.12, can speak on background or without attribution. We want to hear from you.

BREAKING: Judge voids Pentagon's new press policy that led most outlets to surrender their credentials. In suit brought by NYT, Judge Paul Friedman (Clinton/DC) says policy violates 1st Amendment because it's designed to "weed out disfavored journalists." ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

Trump thought he could do a little pump and dump bombing to manipulate oil prices and intimidate Iran into compliance, and get out quickly like he did with their little regime change rout in Venezuela...
