Gallego: "Young American men and women are dying because of these idiots"

Trump ripped up the Iran nuclear deal and created this mess. Now, he's putting servicemembers in harm's way with no clear plan and no Congressional approval. The American people deserve answers — and Congress needs to do its job.

WTF is 60 Minutes doing? No evidence that Iranians want Reza Pahlavii to lead them but 60 Minutes is giving him an opportunity to make his case directly to Trump by lending him prime television real estate to call Trump the greatest president in history, so he could get Trump to install him as Shah.

Anyone not running on accountability and delivering results will be failing Americans. Will be a huge factor for the upcoming elections, assuming we have them. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Raise your hand if you think we deserve a president that has a better response to American troops dying than “that’s the way it is.” 🙋‍♀️

Federal Judge John Coughenour says he’s received dozens, if not hundreds, of death threats after he ruled against the Trump administration. cbsn.ws/3N73lPr

Trump wants to be like Barack Obama so bad. Just a reminder when Obama sent in black hawk military in the raid to capture Osama Bin Ladin in May 2011 it was a success with ZERO U.S. casualties. Trump’s reckless decision to bomb Iran will have nothing but blood on his hands.

🧵This is on the White House web site today. Here is the (currently) still live link. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202... We are at war and this President has put American lives at risk for no stated coherent reason.

Trump was wrong to say this.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else. We mustn’t let this war do so.

Trump in 2024: I can tell you, you're not gonna have a war with me

Hundreds of threats have been left on the judges' voicemails. Listen to some of those messages. cbsn.ws/3OGw1ze

It’s really crazy how much I’ve been agreeing with Rep. Thomas Massie recently!

Camel milk?!

That sound you hear is irony dying.

Touché

This article should have made the basic point that other countries are governed by the rule of law. It’s not about “eagerness” to prosecute and it’s not a puzzle. It’s a marker of a deep US problem. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/01/w...

“If we’re not careful, we’re going to get a judge killed. It’s just that stark,” says retired federal Judge John Jones, a George W. Bush appointee. A 60 Minutes investigation found that judges who ruled against the Trump administration have received threats. cbsn.ws/3OEfxrr

Truth!

“I think that the attacks against the judiciary are only getting worse. What I am seeing now is far different than what I have seen in the past,” says Judge Esther Salas, a federal district court judge in New Jersey. cbsn.ws/4sjeqfc

Tonight - 8PM MSNOW Join me & @MarkHertling @RohdeD @JohnBrennan @JakeAuch @CroftHelima @ghoshworld @peterbakernyt @McFaul @John_Hudson @RepDean @rinsana For our special coverage of the attack on Iran. Markets Oil Retaliation Congress’s next moves…..

Where are we? A president clearly in mental decline, a compliant Congress afraid to exercise there oversight responsibilities when the useful idiot starts a war. When I served, it never occurred to me that I would ever have to question an order.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies. If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

Death is “just the way it is” in Trump’s America.

Me too!

Sociopaths, particularly stupid ones, don't plan much.

Reports indicate at least 100 children have already been killed in strikes on schools. That is unconscionable. Three U.S. service members are dead as a result of this entirely preventable war of choice. The blood of these service members, these children, and every civilian rests in Trump’s hands.

According to our sources in Williamsport, the vehicles have arrived.

Here they go again with the old they’re making wmd’s bull bagels ! Republicans have started all major military conflicts in the last 60 years. Every time leaving the mess for Democratic administrations to clean up . Regime change doesn’t work! Just look at our history of it.🤔

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche says, “We are routinely getting stays and getting reversals because of local judges just not following the law, full stop… It’s a war, man.” cbsn.ws/4bisfEY

To be clear, the GOP majority abdicating its congressional responsibilities and ceding its power to the executive is a choice. Republicans could call votes and end this today if they wanted to. They choose not to.

A Waymo robotaxi picking up a passenger near this morning's mass shooting in Austin blocked an ambulance from reaching the scene, according to a bystander video. A Waymo official confirmed the video shows the company's vehicle blocking the ambulance.

Trump in 2011: “Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective.”

The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.

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...

In Europe, they’re making arrests over the Epstein scandal. In America, the regime’s making redactions and hiding evidence.

"The Peace President." [Cartoon by Benjamin Slyngstad]

Why has Trump been pushed in this direction? Follow the money. UAE, Qatar, the Saudis and Israel paid him to.

CONGRESS declares war. NOT President tRumpstein.

No new wars.

Sen. Chuck Schumer is calling for Congress to come back to Washington immediately and vote on a war powers resolution regarding Iran.

Don’t buy it. The SAVE Act was never just about voter ID. It’s about pressure, who gets flagged, who gets pushed off the rolls, and who has to jump through hoops to prove they belong in this democracy. 📌 Trump’s putting the heat on Republicans to pass it. #SaveActTaxesYourVote

The SAVE Act is built to trip women up. About 69 million married women have names that do not match their birth certificates, and this bill turns that paperwork into a weapon against their voice. Screw the patriarchy. #SaveActTaxesYourVote Call Your Senators 202 202 224-3121 Most important call
