Trump’s Fixation on This Phrase Reveals Something About the War in Iran www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/o... “Whether this war lasts a few more days or weeks or months, the president will always claim it was ahead of schedule. I can feel it in my bones.” #Iran #AheadofSchedule

What a master class in stupid. Republicans chose to keep the shutdown going last week. Now they caved—finally admitting they’ve been causing the shutdown all along with their total failure to govern. What a pathetic embarrassment.

“…we’ve left ourselves in a much weaker position and Iran in a stronger position than it was before." #Iran #Trump #war

We can choose a cleaner future, or double down on risk. Expanding drilling threatens our coasts, our economy, and our way of life. The smarter path is protecting what makes Florida, Florida.

I went fishing for a way to #AprilFoolsDay you. Did you catch me?

Convicted Felon Donald Trump attending today’s birthright citizenship arguments at SCOTUS is such a transparent attempt to intimidate the justices. But it just makes him look WEAK and PATHETIC. Trump reeks of desperation.

The hypocrisy of Trump attacking mail in voting while benefiting from it cannot be ignored. This is about making voting difficult for ordinary Americans while elites keep privileges. #TrumpVotedByMail

@morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social @mika-brzezinski.bsky.social One thing I haven’t heard about #Iran & regime change relates to Khomeini’s age. He was what, 85? Regime change was coming, regardless, if it wasn’t technically already under the way. After so many years of his rule, why does #Trump say now?

USAid, founded in 1961, provided food, vaccines, education, and disaster relief to over 100 countries. Since Trump & Elon Musk shut it down 14 months ago, 600,000 people have died

Okay. I cannot stand it any longer. I am hearing so many grammatical mistakes on the news these days. For the young man speaking about the cringe factor of Trump war memes, there is no such word as “disagreeance.” And @jonlemire.bsky.social , I think you meant to say TSA lines are “tangible”

Trump’s war on Iran has cost close to $30 billion. That could fund a year of the Affordable Care Act subsidies that he and Republicans have refused to extend. Instead, millions of Americans have dropped their insurance because they can’t afford it. Priorities.

Two pilots dead at LaGuardia. A lone controller managing two simultaneous emergencies. The FAA is 3,000 controllers short. We will blame the human. We should fix the system. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

It must be *infuriating* to TSA agents, who are NOT getting paid, to see lazy ICE agents, who ARE getting paid, lounging about the airport and doing nothing to help either them or passengers.

Senate Democrats voted multiple times to fund TSA separately from ICE. Republicans voted it down every time. Republicans are to blame for today’s airport chaos — all because they’re happy to keep letting Trump’s thugs terrorize our communities with no consequences. Remember this.

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.

They called him “Sleepy Joe” because you could sleep at night when he was President.

Barack Obama pays tribute to Robert Mueller, calling him one of the finest FBI directors in history and honoring his unwavering commitment to the rule of law

This is the only thing you need to know. Democrats want to open TSA. Republicans are refusing because they want to attach ICE funding. That’s why there are long lines. ICE.

Gas prices are up in every state and the biggest increases are hitting key political battlegrounds. States with competitive races like Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin and Michigan have seen price jumps of at least $1 per gallon. How it's impacting midterms: politi.co/3PmAxDp

Trump sued CNN for defamation over its coverage of his 2020 election lies. A federal judge threw it out. Trump appealed to the 11th Circuit & lost. Then he asked the full 11th Circuit to review it. They unanimously rejected his case. It is dead. Trump lost the 2020 election by a landslide.

Washington DC is not the President’s personal real estate empire. Our public buildings belong to the people. That’s why I introduced the Federal Facilities Protection and Oversight Act—to protect our historic federal buildings and ensure no president can demolish or remake them on a whim.

The US is spending more than $1 trillion on the military for the first time in history. That apparently isn't enough. Now, the Pentagon wants $200 billion more for an illegal war in Iran. The answer is NO. We need to invest in the American people, not endless war.

Of course we are not surprised.

I believe Tulsi Gabbard was caught in a lie today. WARNER: “Do you have the answer to why the president was knowing about this affidavit before it was even served?” GABBARD: “I’m not aware that the president knew...” WARNER: “Then why was he sending you to Fulton County?”

The President of the United States said I insulted Jesus. You want to know what insults Jesus? Kicking the sick off their healthcare. Bombing schoolchildren in Iran. Deporting moms and babies. Covering up the Epstein files.

OSSOFF: Your statement says that as a result of last summer's airstrikes, Iran's nuclear program was 'obliterated.' Correct? GABBARD: Yes O: The WH stated war was launched to 'eliminate the imminent nuclear threat' G: The only person who can determine what's an imminent threat is POTUS O: False

The United States has suffered four terrorist attacks since the war in #Iran broke out. Yet our counterterrorism infrastructure continues to atrophy. My thoughts on the challenges ahead, with @colinpclarke.bsky.social in the @latimes.com.

Sigh. It was SERE training (see my earlier post that this is a SIX MONTH training program). Was Mullin MIA from his legislative duties that long?

The Alternative to Obama’s Nuclear Deal Was War. Why Did Trump Tear It Up? www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/o... “The operation against Iran has succeeded in achieving many of its military objectives, but it has come with painful economic and human costs…” #Iran #Trump #Obama (Gift Article)

Hey @alivitali.bsky.social . Maybe you should ask Markewayne Mullin more about that SEAL training?

Rand Paul confronts Markwayne Mullin at his confirmation hearing to replace Kristi Noem about his history of advocating for violence to resolve political differences, including caning, fistfights, biting, dueling, and punching people in the face.

Technically, the president can't leave NATO without congressional approval. He also can't start a war without congressional approval, yet here we are. (2024 National Defense Authorization Act)
