‘They can’t lose a single vote’: Republicans say a razor-thin majority has made them ‘untouchable’ A recent scandal involving Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, is testing a blunt dynamic with House Republicans: They can get away with just about anything — and leaders won’t call on them to resign.

Viktor Orban is a pro-Putin authoritarian thug and the fact that Trump, Vance & Rubio have openly campaigned for him against freedom-loving Hungarians who want him finally out of power is disgusting, dishonorable & disgraceful. But typical of them because that is what they are.

NEW: Guards have taken away crayons, colored pencils & paper during recent room searches at Dilley, according to detainees and others. After one inspection, the children just “cried and cried and cried,” a mother said. The facility denies the claims. By @mckenziefunk.com @micarosenberg.bsky.social

Today, former Sec. of State, Hillary Clinton, will testify before House Oversight as a part of that committee's investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. Bill Clinton testifies tomorrow. Both she & her husband insisted that their testimony be provided in a public hearing, but Rep. James Comer refused.

Good morning from federal court in Nashville. Kilmar Abrego Garcia just entered this building as a free man for the first time. Look out for coverage of his vindictive prosecution hearing today on All Rise News.

British Cakeism

A Russian drone was intercepted by Swedish armed forces as it approached French carrier Charles De Gaulle, currently docked in south Sweden. Took of from a Russian ship but disappeared after electronic warfare actions were taken. Caveat, media understanding, but seemingly confirmed by MOD =).

De zorgen gaan helemaal niet om de concurrentiepositie, en ook niet om de toegankelijkheid. #afleiding Het gaat erom dat wij onze communicatie met de overheid in handen leggen van een commerciële partij uit een land dat al vaker heeft laten zien misbruik van zijn machtspositie te maken. #digid

Young men supported Trump because they thought he'd fix the economy. Now he's designing a ballroom

Nordic countries investigate a threat to the region's energy infrastructure and Sweden's TV4 reports, citing sources

💔14 people, including a child, have been injured by the russian drone & missile attack on The Kharkiv Region during the night. Many districts are affected & have reported damages, including strikes on several residential buildings. #russiaisaterroriststate

According to the NYT, two completely different stories. 🇨🇺 Cuba says the Florida speedboat entered its waters armed, fired first, and they returned fire in self-defense. 🇺🇸 The U.S. says… not so fast. They’re still independently verifying what happened. Who do YOU believe?

Dat dergelijk tuig geen bezoekje krijgt van handhaving vertelt ons wat de staat van ons land is. Wel krijgen mensen die vreedzaam tegen klimaatverandering demonstreren politie aan de deur. Gewoon, om te praten. Ondertussen staat W. zijn haat en gif de Tweedekamer in te spuiten.

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...

Taking aim at foes in Washington, D.C., and beyond in the testy tirade, he proposed deporting Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Oscar-winning Robert De Niro for daring to defy him. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Peter Magyar’s Tisza party is running almost 8 percentage points ahead of Viktor Orban’s ruling Fidesz ahead of an April 12 election, according to an average of all available polls. One poll this week showed Magyar 20 points ahead. www.ft.com/content/8521...

CubaRicaMerican here. Investigate everything. Even press articles. Anyone who know the history of US ops in Cuba, and Cuban ops in US would agree. Assume lies are everywhere.

So they’re going to cripple healthcare for the poor in Minnesota to make an example of the state. The warning is “don’t resist.”

It’s true.

Britain's Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, visited Amman's Specialty Hospital and met medical evacuees from Gaza who are receiving treatment there.

Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales refused to comment on leaked text messages where he pestered a staffer for nude photos. He stated multiple times that he will not resign.

The Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to spend taxpayer funds, and no law allows the president to halt if he feels some US states aren’t being “good stewards” of the money. In case there’s any confusion on this, the Impoundment Control Act forbids it. Taxation without representation.

⚡️Explosions reported in Kyiv. Explosions took place in Ukraine's capital at around 4:00 a.m. local time on Feb. 26, according to Kyiv Independent journalists on the ground. At around the same time, Ukraine's Air Force warned of the threat of Russian ballistic missiles.

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland. Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M. America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech. This is what integrity looks like.

Good morning. The sky is clear. My dog is a good boy. Trump was boring. His grandiosity is contrived. His claims are false. The GOP is a barking herd of trained seals. MAGA is a splintering cult. Truth exists. Empathy enriches. Epstein is not going away. Focus. Take deep breaths. Have a good day.

Kamala Harris: When this guy is talking about the economy is roaring… Who’s it roaring for when you put a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid? You know what Medicaid funds? Families with children, pregnant women, seniors, people with disabilities. Meanwhile, a $1 trillion tax cut for the richest people

Sen. Dick Durbin is demanding a formal review of FBI Director Kash Patel's use of the bureau's private jet. ...This comes after Durbin said credible whistleblowers told him Patel's travel had delayed the FBI's response to two major crimes.

Daniel Dale fact-checks Trump's SOTU lies. - Tariffs are paid by consumers - Did not secure $18T in investments — White House website says $9T - Inherited 3.0% inflation - 2025 economic growth was 2.2%.

Gotta tip your cap to @sollenbergerrc.bsky.social for scooping everyone on this.

That’s quite a trifecta of Epstein stories this am. @cnbc.com @nytimes.com

💥BREAKING: Viktor Orbán ordered the military deployed to guard “key energy facilities,” citing a possible Ukrainian “attack” to disrupt Hungary’s energy system. The move fuels fears of a staged national security emergency or false-flag incident ahead of the April 12 elections. This is really scary.

The look of someone trying to figure out how to control a fucking monster of her own creation.
