BREAKING: Babe, wake up. New war just dropped. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/03/u...

This will give Markwayne Mullin a stroke.

We also just murdered this guy’s parents, his wife, and his son so good luck getting a peace deal

Ted Lieu to Marco Rubio “You told Americans to depart now via commercial means when you know many airports/airspace are closed — Maybe you should have thought of a frickin’ plan first” Reminder: Four Americans died in Benghazi — six have died & three jets have been shot down in three days in Iran

The Deputy Attorney General just rescinded the policy against no knock warrants in most cases. That policy was an important public safety measure. Restricting their use saved lives. Breonna Taylor died because of one. www.cnn.com/2022/02/22/u...

The single biggest buyer of crude oil from the Persian Gulf is China - as much as 40 percent. This certainly looks like the United States will be subsidizing and protecting oil shipments to China.

Scoop: U.S. ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee joked to embassy staff about procreating while sheltering in place on Tuesday in a memo one U.S. official described as “awkward” and “odd.”

Saying you'd been at war with a country for 47 years is kind of the opposite of an explanation for why you decided to up and assassinate their leadership right now

Rubio Today: It’s false to say I said the U.S. had to attack because Israel was going to attack. That’s not what I said. Rubio Yesterday: We knew Israel was going to strike Iran, and that would trigger attacks on U.S. forces. If we didn’t act first, Americans would suffer higher casualties.

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin? NOEM: Yes WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that? NOEM: No.

No lectures please from the clowns who took down the counter-terror expertise of our U.S. government. www.cnn.com/2026/03/03/p...

Today around 5 PM ET I'll be forcing a Senate vote on my bill to force Scott Bessent to hand over the Treasury Epstein files. Tune in here:

"For generations, whatever one thought of DOJ’s arguments, the baseline assumption held: the Department acted in good faith and would follow the courts’ rulings. That assumption has given way, displaced by a sustained pattern of noncompliance and escalating confrontation with the courts."

Again, Rubio said the opposite yesterday bsky.app/profile/bill...

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."

Govt's appeal brief is due Friday. So it'll be interesting to see if they ask for a continuance—on the grounds that they'd planned to drop the appeal due to its frivolousness but their boss said they couldn't.

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks. They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors. Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption. Watch how they vote this week.

A bit more about CNN's behavior with Jennings: What are the bosses telling us by letting it be? If we frame it as an Orbanization move — and we should — they are saying: "We have to concede some territory to forces injurious to our cause. One name for the space we have lost is Scott Jennings." /2

BREAKING: Georgia father found criminally responsible for his son's alleged school shooting. A Georgia jury held Colin Gray criminally responsible for the alleged actions of his teenage son, Colt, in the 2024 Apalachee school shooting, which left two classmates and a pair of teachers dead.

North Carolina students are mobilizing after Republicans moved to limit their ballot access. The removal of early voting sites on several campuses, including the nation’s largest HBCU, has sparked organizing efforts as young voters rally to protect their right to vote.

Supreme Court on substantive due process rights: Right to abortion: NO Right of conservative parents to object to school policies affecting transgender children: YES Right of liberal parents to object to state policies restricting gender-affirming care for trans kids: PASS

A weird trend at the Supreme Court these days is that they often struggle to get four votes to hear a case on the merits docket but easily get to five on emergency applications, sometimes on the same legal questions.

yet there is always money for bombs

This thread on Alito's outrageously misrepresentation of the facts in the NY voting rights case is so damning. Alito's account was misleading to the point of falsity. And there's nothing anybody can do about it. He gets to toss around bogus claims without any consequence.

Even by his standards Alito’s opinion in NY redistricting case last night was totally unhinged. If he’s writing majority opinion in Voting Rights Act case that’s very very bad news www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Flew out of LAX and every single Emirates Air flight was canceled. The economic impacts of this war, including on oil prices and global trade, are likely to be far reaching. What's the end game? This is what happens when you put meatheads in charge. Go do another shitty pull up, Pete Hegseth.

Successfully killing anyone who might be a negotiating partner is just step one of our awesome non-plan.

Hey, remember how we let a nazi near-trillionaire annihilate the US state capacity? I know it was a whole year ago, but it turns out that this has consequences beyond "murdering 14 million people by ending USAID" (which apparently no one cared about).

In the before-times, we'd call this obstruction of justice.

Defensive strike- Offensive strike Preemptive attack- Preventive attack Self-defense These are all specific terms with specific meanings and legal weight. Yet, these words are being used interchangeably, mixed up in a salad bowl! Eye-popping!!

Hypocrisy of Roberts Court is astounding: they’re inventing one set of rules to uphold gerrymandered maps that benefit white voters & Republicans in states like Texas while using a completely different set of rules to strike down maps that benefit racial minorities & Democrats

The US Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, has been hit by Iranian drones. It’s on fire. (Al Arabiya)

What would happen if the Democratic justices stopped referring these sorts of applications to the Court and simply decided them as circuit justices? The Republicans would obviously do the same, but the Republicans would win on those, anyway. @stevevladeck.bsky.social?

We’re like a day away before Republicans start claiming Biden started the Iran War

If this is what they are doing, then @governor.ny.gov should just say “my side wins, your side loses” is not a constitutionally valid way to interpret the Constitution—bc it damn well isn’t—and then say “so the new maps stay.” You aren’t obligated to follow an illegal court. They just WANT you to.

New: A Muslim parent has sued Texas leaders for excluding Islamic private schools from participating in the state’s private school voucher program.

Citing reporting by @propublica.org and others, nearly 4,000 doctors, nurses and health professionals sent a letter to DHS Sec Kristi Noem calling for the immediate release of all children currently in immigration detention. Full letter: tinyurl.com/yz2amueb 1/

BREAKING: Sens. WHITEHOUSE, DURBIN demand investigation of Justice Department decision to block civil rights probe into shooting of Renee Good.

Our Constitution is clear: the power to declare war sits with Congress. This is why ⬇️

A clip from the moment Hillary Clinton found out Lauren Boebert took an unauthorized photo of her deposition: 'I'm done!'

This is pretty hilarious. Retaliation *against* your attack really can't be the imminent threat that justifies your attack. I think the concept of linear time pretty much settles this question without the need for additional argument.

BREAKING: Credible whistleblower discloses that FBI forensic experts were ordered to stand down from processing the scene where Renee Good was killed, because Kash Patel did not want Good referenced as a “victim” in the warrant.

After Renee Good was killed, career FBI agents were ordered to stand down from investigating her killing. Why? Kash Patel wanted to falsely spin Renee Good as a threat to law enforcement.

"Multiple women alleged to prosecutors that they were sexually assaulted by high-profile associates of Jeffrey Epstein, according to the recently released Epstein files. None of the men were charged."

lol this is an incredible video

It is remarkable that the general state of things is: 1) creators whose work was stolen to train AI have no rights 2) users who create with AI have no rights in the output 3) the AI companies have full rights to everything they want, including user prompts I dunno, sounds wrong and untenable.
