Pete Hegseth's Department of War press conference on 2 March 2026 is the Trump administration's manifesto for war without any humanitarian limits. The grim darkness of a near present in which there is only war.

Trump Tells Jonathan Karl He Had Successors in Mind After Strikes on Iran — But They Were All Killed

A CIA assessment regarding who will replace Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, cautioned that an IRGC hardliner is likely to succeed him, not a moderate Iranian figure, a source briefed on the assessment who spoke on condition of anonymity told MS NOW. MS NOW's David Rohde reports.

The FBI being on high alert for terrorist actions is important right now. Too bad they fired and gutted their counterterrorism capacity

Is Convicted Felon Donald Trump’s super-duper secure SCIF with soft banquet-hall curtains, open air top, unsecured electronic devices, and roving guests located next to the bathroom where the classified documents are stored?

Uh. Gas up your car Now

uhhh oh my god

Just remember what this is all for…. Distracting from the Epstein files

Trump, according to his own genius insights, is not a skilled negotiator.

Video geolocated by CNN shows the moment a missile struck near the US Navy base in Bahrain. In the video, a large explosion can be heard. A large plume of smoke is then seen rising from the area around the base. Follow live updates: https://cnn.it/3MxB1Wk

If indeed, as Trump claims, Iran posed an "imminent threat" to Americans, then there surely is massive evidence to back the claim and rationalize why the US joined Israel, without congressional approval, in this strike/war that is overwhelmingly unpopular with the American people. Right?

⚠️ Confirmed: Network data show #Iran is now in the midst of a near-total internet blackout with national connectivity at 4% or ordinary levels. The incident comes amid US and Israeli combat operations and matches measures used during last year's war with Israel.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

This is how screwed up everything is. The DOD shot down a CBP drone which cause the FAA to shut down the airspace around El Paso. We have stupid idiots in all levels of all agencies thanks to this Regime. If we go to war, GOD help us. abcnews.com/US/dept-defe...

Lauren Boebert is asked to define “inflation.” It does not go well.

Hey GOP why not make Hillary and bills deposition on Epstein public, as the request?

Boebert violated deposition conditions. She should be dismissed. Comer os now complicit in deposition conditions. Either demand press allowed in and dismiss Boebert or cease deposition proceedings.

incredible op sec from Lauren Boebert here

The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028. He also passed tax cuts for the rich. They're permanent.

HERO 🔥 And I don’t want to hear shit about a censure vote against this man. Rep. Al Greene was ejected from the State of the Union for the sign — “Black People Aren’t Apes.”

In tonight's speech, the president did what he does best: celebrate himself. But if anyone was looking for leadership focused on easing their current economic pain, he made clear that they'll need to look elsewhere.

Al Green didn’t last long.

I asked Oldest, Gen Z, if he knew who Bill Clinton’s VP was. He did not. He DID know who Al Gore was. The guy who had the election stolen by the Supreme Court. Also the climate change guy. I found that interesting.

Prior to 2015, if any candidate for elected office had begun a public statement or tweet with this sentence, he or she would have been laughed out of public life. Now, Americans re-elect them as commander-in-chief. I will never allow myself to become numb to his insanity.

ICYMI: Minnesota was just ranked the second-best state to raise a family. From paid leave and school meals, to strong public safety and tax cuts for the middle class, Minnesota is built around the simple idea that families come first. wallethub.com/edu/best-sta...

Gallego: "They're going and racially profiling people and rounding up Americans until they can prove their citizenship. That money came from kicking millions and millions of Americans off Medicaid. It was the same bill. They cut Medicaid to expand ICE."

Congratulations to the U.S. Men’s and Women’s hockey teams, Alysa Liu, Breezy Johnson, Mikaela Shiffrin and all the amazing Olympic athletes representing Team USA.

We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."

The athletes from Team USA are being compensated at the 2026 Winter Olympics, just not as much as the U.S. Olympic committee would like.

I’m shocked.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

Trump acknowledges that Democrats would be better off packing the court. YES THEY WOULD. IF DEMS WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO ME ABOIT THIS, I HAVE EXTENSIVE NOTES

Trump sought deep cuts to the EPA, HUD, CDC, NIH, and more. Congress by and large left spending levels unchanged. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

If you hear the Trump administration bragging about decreased deficits in 2025, don’t be fooled: the temporary decrease will be offset by future years of elevated deficits thanks to their expensive tax bill. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

Federal debt held by the public is forecasted to reach 156% by 2050. And unfortunately, projections have historically undershot reality. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

Entitlements and interest are eating the federal budget, while defense and other discretionary spending are set to drop (as a share of GDP). My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

“Greenland appears to have been a lifelong preoccupation of Adolf Hitler’s,” Timothy W. Ryback writes. After creating an economic mess with ill-advised tariffs and trade policies, Hitler looked north in pursuit of resources and national security:

GDP growth dropped to 1.4% in the last quarter of 2025, bringing growth for the year to 2.2%.
