A beautiful night of singing, guitar, & reminiscences from @lylelovett.bsky.social & John Hiatt ended with just a hint of resistance: Woody Guthrie’s “This Land is Your Land.” Perfect. (Note to Bluesky leaders: I know you guys are young, but ffs, give Mr. Lovett a blue check!)

We need to find a way to talk about Black (women) candidates that is expansive enough to reckon with racism (misogynoir) while at the same time acknowledging those candidates are humans who sometimes make bad policy commitments or campaign choices What’s gone on for the last few years isn’t working

David. Andrea del Verocchio. 1473-1475. National Museum of the Bargello. Florence, Italy. While Michelangelo’s and Donatello’s Davids are more famous, Bluesky won’t let me post them without an “adult content” warning. 🤣 #travel #photography #art #sculpture #Renaissance #ItalianRenaissance

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence. And then he bragged about it on X later.

Trump: "THE SAVE AMERICA ACT! 1. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW VOTER ID (IDENTIFICATION!)

 2. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP TO VOTE 3. NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS (EXCEPT FOR ILLNESS, DISABILITY, MILITARY OR TRAVEL!) 4. NO MEN IN WOMEN’S SPORTS 5. NO TRANSGENDER MUTILATION SURGERY FOR CHILDREN"

NEW: When asked if top aide Corey Lewandowski has “a role in approving contracts,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem replied, “No.” But internal DHS records contradict her testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee. By @josh-kaplan.bsky.social @justinelliott.bsky.social

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

Statement from Jasmine Crockett.

Sgt. Declan Coady checked in with his family every hour or two after the U.S. and Israel launched their military campaign against Iran. When he didn't respond to messages Sunday, "most of us started to wonder," his father told the AP. "Your gut starts to get a feeling." https://to.pbs.org/46EGVvs

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

Projection.

I'm so sorry.

Some photos of "pilots downed in Kuwait" are AI-generated. Be careful.

After air defenses in Kuwait mistakenly shot down three U.S. fighter pilots, an image circulated online claiming to show a local man confronting a downed pilot. But it's an AI-generated fake. ❌ Here's the proof: www.snopes.com/fact-check/u...

This is senseless and proves that Felon47 is/was a heartless bastard. WHO DOES THIS?!?!?

This is reposted over and over on my page. There's no content here. Is it criticizing Hegseth or the people who criticize Hegseth? I get the depth of feeling.

It's fascinating how our subordination to Israel's mission ignores so very, very many realities. worldpopulationreview.com/country-rank... There are an estimated 2 billion Muslims in the world. Christians are 2.3 billion. The greatest disparity is in use of technology, not in numbers.

Yah. After online gambling disappeared, it was replaced by sites called probability predictors. They're producing information in support of the gaming industry. When you see them quoted, check your wallet. Probability is being touted as a righteous opinion shaper. Watch out.

Pay-walled. What can be read is very cute, falling short of saying there's US boots on the ground. Definitely helicopters in the air. Plus, Ecuador seems to think the US is also to get involved in controlling gold mining. "Gold?"

Imagine. What's in the Epstein Files is worse than the slaughter and destruction in the Middle East, which was unilaterally brought about as distraction. Where are the Epstein pregnancies, abortions, adoptions? Trump-Epstein children?

This. And it also sets a precedent that Trump may not like very much going forward.

Please don’t forget to vote today! Texas, Arkansas, and North Carolina are kicking off the 2026 midterm cycle with their primary elections.

Trump thinks it will be easy to defeat Iran. He's an ignorant moron. Iraq invaded Iran in 1980 and Iran held them of for 8 years. It has been preparing for all-out war with Israel and America ever since. It has the support of both Russia and China. Iran will be tougher to beat than Ukraine.

After being found in the Epstein files, this Russian politician came down with a sudden case of the blues and Epstein’ed himself with a Luger pistol. These new American oligarchs need to pay attention as they may be Epstein’ed, too. #ProudBlue #tRumpsteinFiles www.thedailybeast.com/russian-busi...

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America. And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

"When FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen FBI agents and staff last week for their role in the classified documents investigation of Donald Trump, he targeted an elite counter espionage unit that investigates threats from foreign adversaries and specializes in Iran..." www.ms.now/news/kash-pa...

Trump has assumed the power of a king – to decide whether people live or die, based on his personal preference. We see it in Iran, on the high seas, and in the streets of Minneapolis. We must take away Trump’s license to kill and re-impose the rule of law. My free Stop the Presses newsletter.

Staffer: Sir, good news. One of the F-15 pilots ejected safely and is on the ground. Calm and cool under pressure. Badass aura. A video taken by a thankful Kuwaiti civilian is going viral. Hegseth: Fuck yeah. What's his name? Staffer: Okay, so, here's the part you won't like...

The three liberals dissent from the Republican appointees voting to preserve the GOP-held district around Staten Island against a lawsuit:

Has anyone seen any reporting on what is happening to prisoners in Iran?

“I did not have a birthday party,” Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer told Congress when asked about this event and use of official funds. The New York Times has published a photo of her blowing out candles on a cake: “The date was April 7 — her birthday.” www.nytimes.com/2026/03/02/u...

Markwayne Mullin: "War is ugly. It smells bad. If anybody has ever been there and been able to smell the war and taste it, and feel it in your nostrils, it's something you'll never forget. And fortunately you have President Hegseth -- or Secretary Hegseth ... President Hegseth has been there"

In other words, they knew who they needed to protect and, like Kash Patel did, insisted that there was simply no sex trafficking evidence. A cover-up of massive proportions.
