The American bombardment of Iran has been launched without explanation, without Congress, without public support. Above all it has been launched without a coherent strategy for the Iranian people, and without a plan to let them build a legitimate Iranian state. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Wow

The American people now see Trump for who he is — a would-be dictator who does not care what Americans think or want, cares nothing about our Constitution or our laws, and sees himself as a kind of eighteenth-century king, with unlimited power to drag us into wars without the consent of the people.

Wait so Brockman, co-founder of OpenAI donates $25 million to Pro-Trump PAC when he never was a political donator type person and now OpenAI has the contract with same red lines as Anthropic? Make it make sense.

How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States. snyder.substack.com/p/why-attack...

Team Anthropic from day 1. Listening to either Dario Amodei or Demis Hassabis speak those are the only 2 Foundation leaders I trust with the complexities and security challenges of AI.

Great time to permanently unsubscribe from ChatGPT.

The Pentagon wants AI that can fight wars without limits. Anthropic says there are lines it won't cross. And this week, that standoff turned into an all-out confrontation. To unpack the news, I spoke to Kat Duffy from the Council on Foreign Relations and Amos Toh from the Brennan Center:

A big thank you to Anthropic! After a weeks-long standoff between the Defense Department and AI firm Anthropic over how the military can deploy its technology, CEO Dario Amodei said tonight that the company will not loosen its usage policies.

If you were worried the Supreme Court tariff decision undermined the Administration's "deals", let me put your mind at rest. Those "deals" were more reality TV than trade policy: Press conferences, bullet points, and praise, but little substance. The tell: None were ever signed

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way. www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/b...

For clarity..

I know, reich?

Yeah, so Trump's State of the Union was a total bust. Anyone not MAGA saw right through the BS and watched the entirety of the Republican Party fawn all over an out-of-touch liar 7 months before they face their voters for re-election. navigatorresearch.org/state-of-the...

The Supreme Court found Trump’s tariffs illegal last week, and all Trump wants to do is double down and impose MORE cost-raising tariffs.    The American people are tired of paying for Trump’s reckless trade war.

No matter what Trump talks about tonight, remember he only cares about 3 or 4 things: covering up the Epstein scandal, convincing people he won the 2020 election, stealing the 2024 election, and sometimes his ballroom.

The longest State of the Union in history and no mention of gun violence—the number one killer of kids and teens in America. That silence is unacceptable. We deserve a president who prioritizes the safety of our kids and communities.

I’m going to do a short @instagram live at the end of his speech to share my thoughts on this bananas, meandering festival of lies. @chrismurphyct

The confidence it takes to say all of this while everyone can see the actual facts in real time should be studied medically.

🔴 TRUMP: We will always protect Medicare. 🟢 REALITY: Reader, his tax cuts fast-tracked Medicare bankruptcy by 12 years. More below:

I’m not even watching and I’m still thoroughly SICK AND TIRED OF THAT PSYCHOPATHIC LIAR. ENOUGH! We have had enough.

wow i can't believe trump has spent the last 15 minutes talking about how his doj removed files that implicated him personally in sexually assaulting a child (this is a joke he did not do that, i do not spread misinformation on the internet)

Trump has already lied at least twice a minute tonight. Don't believe a WORD without fact-checking it yourself!

Phang: The American people deserve the truth. They do not need more lies from this regime. So tonight you are going to hear people that have been impacted directly by the bullshit of this administration.

His mind is so divorced from reality that he should have to pay alimony. He lies as easily as most people breathe. But I think that he actually believes many of these things. And none of the sycophants in the GOP dare disabuse him of his gross misperceptions.

This is already a fact checker nightmare

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.

Trump’s Big, Ugly Betrayal added $4.7 TRILLION to the debt with just one single bill. This Administration is anything BUT fiscally responsible.

Dow 50,000!

Dow 50,000! Also 21st out of 23.

trump is calling for banning congressional stock trading, but he leaves out the key detail: the reason there's a standstill right now is democrats want it to apply to trump and the white house, but trump issued a veto threat over that.

here's a graph. it's just not possible to replace income taxes with tariffs. if you tried, the government would be out like $2 trillion per year lol

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

Donald Trump won’t talk tonight about how ICE is tear-gassing elementary schools, murdering American citizens, and disappearing legal immigrants. Democrats position is clear: no more funding for ICE until they stop their lawlessness and abuse.

Trump repeated — as he does in virtually every speech — his unsupported claim that many of the immigrants who came to the U.S. under Biden were from “prisons and mental institutions.” Trump has never provided any credible evidence of that. #SOTU2026 www.factcheck.org/2024/09/trum...

So grateful for Bobby watching it for me and calmly telling me what that excuse of a leader is spouting. My tv thanks him too.

We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.

12.7% of Credit Card Loans are now in Serious Delinquency (90+ Days), the 2nd highest in history. The only other time the percentage was higher was the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis #EconSky

It’s not leadership anymore it’s a circus, and everyone’s fighting for center ring.

Mexico burning and this is our FBI director. Just so unprofessional.

It’s been a bit since I posted this daily but here’s a reminder if just how in the know Senator Murphy is. Listen to the man!
