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…

$427M? Great, I expect not to be bothered for donations anytime soon.

Congratulations to Chief Justice Roberts for overseeing the destruction of the Court's legacy. Amazing stuff.

A woman’s ex boyfriend, who is a cop, threatens to shoot her Women are at the highest risk for being killed when they try to leave a relationship. She calls 911 for help & the Police Chief WARNS the boyfriend instead. Boyfriend opened fire on her car We aren’t angry enough.

This is very well done.

Back to Kagan's question in CASA, if you're going to lose every case, what incentive do you have to appeal and risk getting circuit precedent preventing you from continuing to use it as an intimidation tactic?

BREAKING The Federal Circuit immediately issues the mandates in the tariffs litigation, rejecting the Trump admin's request for further delay. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Every reporter in America should ask Kirkland & Ellis and all the other surrender firms for their reaction, and keep asking.

what a long, strange trip it's been

By a 6–3 vote, SCOTUS refuses to review a judge-made rule that bars indigent prisoners from splitting the filing fee among themselves when filing a federal suit—even though everyone else is allowed to split that fee. These defendants were allegedly tortured. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

I mean, yes. But also, where was this concern during “Let’s go Brandon” and the associated contempt for Biden? Or is only one side required to respect the pwesious fee fees of the other?

The traditional justifications for zealous legal advocacy—from adversarial conditions and the distribution of moral responsibility to the rule of law and disciplining of state power—don’t really apply to the OLC.

My quote of the day Harrison Ford SAG-AFTRA awards, March 1, 2026

Three U.S. jet fighters were mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses, the U.S. military said .

ABC News: The International Atomic Energy Agency said so far there’s "no indication that any of the nuclear installations ... have been damaged or hit" in Iran.

Oof. I just read your post in the most uncharitable, pedantic way possible, and I gotta tell ya: it's not looking good for you.

what the fuck

For the curious, here’s part of the DoD instruction on SCIFs. I haven’t done a deep dive, but I don’t believe the words “pipe and drape” appear as acceptable construction materials. www.esd.whs.mil/Portals/54/D...

I think bluesky would be roughly 300% better if people here were capable of reading “this is an assessment of the empirical reality of a situation” without assuming it comes with an implicit “and therefore I endorse the reality of that situation”

uhhh oh my god

NEW: Four federal judges have formed a firewall against ICE in West Virginia — and say they’ll punish state and federal officials of they continue detaining people in ways they have ruled illegal and unconstitutional. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Not really important, but “floating at the bottom of the sea”? This is how a moron talks.

Up is down is up

Trump/Hegseth operational security: at Joe’s Stone Crab, a restaurant a 2-minute walk from the White House, someone was having a conversation about the attacks on Iran that were going to start in 6 hours. Loud enough for the founder of @TMZ.com to recount it in real time with his podcast cohost.

Reminder that the CFTC is already mandated by law to prohibit these kinds of contracts and is abdicating its responsibility

"They were careless people, Tom and Daisy--they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness and let other people clean up the mess they had made" is what comes to mind here.

Madison was a fool.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Just a Reminder of how Broken our Economic System is….

Sup chat this is Slouching Towards Bethlehem with your boy The Rough Beast, and it looks like today’s stream could be a big one, as some of you might’ve already seen there are rumors going around social media that the hour has come round at last, so we’re gonna get right into it

This is exactly why Reagan banned assassination of foreign leaders.

If I were a head of state, I would think setting a precedent that assassination is a legitimate tool of state competition would be unwise

The Situation Room is literally a blanket fort

manufacturing consent through lowly paid influencers

Iranian intelligence has a huge advantage since they can just check polymarket to see what the US will do next.

Well, that’s going to make the US escalation worse.

How about impeaching him for this? You have the power to draft articles AND force a vote.

We really ought to prosecute members of the military who follow illegal orders to start or participate in illegal wars. From the brass down to the enlisted.

This is from the State of the Union address on Tuesday:

Trump has dismissed Vice Admiral Fred Kacher, deputy director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, for issuing warnings to him about what might go wrong in a new war against Iran, Reuters report. www.reuters.com/world/us/pen...

The judges in WV have seen enough. They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Pentagon Watchdog Stalls Proposal to Review Targeting in Trump’s Boat Strikes www.nytimes.com/2026/02/28/u...

No congress, no constitution, and a king. What a way to celebrate 250 years.

The state of the union address was like 72 hours before the US and Israel chose to attack Iran’s capital and call for regime change, and Trump did not even mention his policy toward Iran before Congress, much less ask for a declaration of war.

One has to wonder how accurate Iranian munitions and drones are. Because if you’re Bahrain, Saudi, etc do you want to have your citizens hit as collateral damage? Maybe you start rethinking the US presence.
