👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Let’s do this, people!

A top U.S. general said Thursday that armed troops shouldn’t be “anywhere near” polling sites during elections while testifying at a Senate Armed Services Committee panel. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The most sacred clause in the Constitution may be the war making clause. Our founding fathers are turning in their grave watching this Republican Congress allow one man lead us into a disastrous, incompetently run war.

Soldiers only matter when they're actively fighting wars for you, and really not even then. Once they leave the military, Trump and Hegseth couldn't care less what happens to them.

I've been tracking every ICE detention death under Trump and publishing the data publicly. Read the full breakdown, including the searchable table of all 42 deaths, at: austinkocher.substack.com/p/as-predict...

Sanders: People can't afford health care. People can't afford childcare. And this guy, in addition to giving tax breaks to billionaires, now wants to spend another $200 billion on a war that should never have been fought.

Trump spent more in 19 days in Iran–including on bombing elementary schools & killing civilians–than America spends in 6 months on international diplomacy at the State Departmnt. War should be a last resort—not a first impulse.

Trump and Republicans' SAVE America Act isn't solving problems—it's creating them by making YOU shell out for IDs and documents like a birth certificate or passport. They want to make voting more expensive—and Democrats won't let them.

When a Black woman dared to demand Pam Bondi face consequences, Comer didn’t argue back he called her “b*tching.” That’s misogynoir: the racism and sexism Black women face when they get too close to the truth. He’s protecting Bondi. He’s silencing Summer Lee. We see exactly what’s happening here.

A group of us held a forum tonight with @votevets.org to talk about who will bear the cost of Trump's disastrous war with Iran. It won't be the Mar-a-Lago Epstein class. It will be poor and middle-class families who can't afford gas and groceries and whose kids die in vain.

HANDS OFF: 1300 events NO KINGS 1: 2100 events NO KINGS 2: 2700 events NO KINGS 3: 3000 events and counting Let’s make history. Again.

GO!

NEW: The Trump administration is scrambling to cover its tracks amid legislative pressure and a First Amendment lawsuit over its alleged “domestic terrorist” database, new legal filings and emails reviewed by Mother Jones reveal.

This man did far more fighting for the US than anyone in the cabinet or the White House. And he died one day after being taken to an American concentration camp. One day. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Rather than saving America from being dragged into a forever war, Senate Republicans would rather focus on their so-called SAVE America Act. Here's how dangerous this voter suppression bill would be for your right to vote:

The sitting president of the United States just sat behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office of the White House and referred to the Governor of California as the President of the United States. Can the media start reporting on his deteriorating mental state now or nah?

Cuba has gone dark. Trump’s vindictive oil embargo – along with a sanctions regime that has starved Cuba of opportunities to develop its solar and wind – is depriving innocent Cuban citizens of basic necessities and creating a humanitarian crisis. Trump must end the embargo.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Dudes been typing up novels all night. Hopefully these are the last thoughts of a lunatic.

For the most insane and stupid timeline in this country’s history.

It you watch one thing from the Oscars, let it be this…

*Lost* his mind.

🚨 🇦🇺 JUST IN: Sydney marched against war. Thousands on the streets. Peace. Solidarity. Humanity. The response? "They'll be next in the mincer." This is how empires silence dissent. Threaten the protesters. Call them cute. Promise them death. Australia sends jets. Hosts bases. Follows Washington.

Authoritarianism BULLSHIT.

Trump Admin starts war. Trump Admin shocked by consequences of war. Trump Admin urgently (!) tells Americans caught by those consequences to get out! get out! and no there's no help coming from the Trump Admin, and good luck finding a land route out somewhere. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

Plastered Pete Kegstand is big mad at photographers for making him look like the dickbrained clown he is. I cover this and all the other dumbfuckery that happened in "this week in stupid," my every-Saturday round-up. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION to reading it. link is here: bit.ly/4bH0sOB

Russia is helping Iran target Americans. Donald Trump is easing oil sanctions on Russia. Draw your own conclusions.

First Miami, now Boca...Let the wave keep rising.🌊 One vote. If that doesn't remind everyone that staying home is not an option, I don't know what will. #VoteLikeYourLifeDependsOnItBecauseItDoes #SheShed

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

He was wrong www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Yup Trump sees everybody for $10 billion it seems “ the Epstein files proved Donald Trump raped children” Ted Lieu The orange paedophiles response? BTW - Ted is a courteous hero

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

WTF! This is deliberate misogyny: using AI to suppress the economic power of educated women bc they vote Democratic while boosting working-class men in jobs AI can't easily replace. It's misogyny, disturbing, & fascist! We see it & are calling it out. None of us, including men should stand for it!

Much love to our Senate Democrats for voting down the Republican motion to fully fund DHS and ICE with no additional oversight. #BlueCrew #ProudBlue #VoteBlue

It is not a question of polls. It is not a question of politics. It is a question of morality and legality and constitutional obligation. Every member of the Congress of the United States takes an oath of office to uphold the laws and Constitution of the United States of America.

This was my second visit to the ICE facility in Baltimore. Each time, it made the hair stand up on my arms. The conditions are inhumane, and the treatment of people is unacceptable. Instead of lowering gas prices, this Administration chooses to spend its time on this CRUELTY.

TACO 🌮 bsky.app/profile/ronf...

the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

Trump and his national security team have learned nothing from our prior mistakes in the Middle East. Bombing a school (a incompetent mistake) and a desalinization plant (probably not a mistake) is just going to empower Iran's hardline leadership and dangerous terrorist groups.

Keep in mind that it’s not just the cost of filling *your* tank which is skyrocketing…the cost to every *truck driver* is also spiking, which means the cost of whatever they’re transporting will go up as well…

Living in the unimaginable.

Takeaways He ordered an unarmed ship in international waters to be sunk. UNARMED 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬87 dead Because the Straight of Hormuz is too dangerous, suddenly Putin has new customers for his oil, imagine THAT. ONCE AGAIN WHAT HE DID HELPS PUTIN.......... open.substack.com/pub/marytrum...

"We are at war now, a war that is transparently one of a series of masculinity contests. Our American strongman is strong because he is stronger than the other strongmen. He can abduct Maduro. He can assassinate Khamenei. He is performing relative strength, at huge cost to others."

Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran. And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program? This is incompetence. Plain and simple.

One of the reasons why the war is so WRONG is the shameful treatment of our veterans. This is an example.

Trump is lying. I serve on the Intel & Armed Services Committees. There’s no intelligence that Iran posed an imminent threat to the U.S. or the American people.

Unfuckingbelievable. Complete incompetence and delusion on every level.
