I like to distract myself from the terrifying political news by reading the ridiculous political news.

No caption needed.😒

🧵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.

ICE & CBP have been arresting & detaining small children across the country. This video explores the data from San Diego & through November this administration has arrested at least 21 toddlers under the age of 4 in San Diego. That's depraved! #ICELawlessness www.instagram.com/reel/DU9exGo...

Gift Article: Live Updates - U.S. Attacks Iran as tRump Calls for Overthrow of Government. Israel joined the U.S.-led assault as this regime pledged to eliminate Iran’s nuclear program & devastate its military. Iran vowed retaliation. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/02... #PINKS

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

This was a premeditated attack with no conceivable emergency: the choice to do this is Congress not President. Waging war on Iran is an obvious violation of the Constitution, no different than enacting tariffs (raising taxes) or defunding USAID (spending programs).

I just want MAGA to remember that whatever happens, they're the ones who voted for this. www.thedailybeast.com/maga-melts-d...

There are always tweets

So, $200 million on planes for Kristi Noem and ICE including renovations and listen to this video on the explanation of the $70 million luxury jet and tell me if you think she will use it for deportations? #USDemocracy youtu.be/NjSxPJguWbs?...

This is psychotic.

Could it be that Trump wanted this war more than he wanted to end Iran’s nuke prog? It sounds like they were on the verge of major concessions getting everything they wanted then dumb fuck attacked. He’s telling Americans will die, sounds like he owns it. edition.cnn.com/world/live-n...

Could the Supreme Court’s Voting Rights Act Decision Affect the Midterms? www.nytimes.com/2026/02/28/u...

Control of Congress hangs in the balance this fall, and Trump has warned that he’ll be impeached for a third time if Democrats take the House. Fingers crossed. open.substack.com/pub/logicall...

With some of his ambassador choices, “Trump has elevated diplomatic incompetence to an art,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues.

Soho House sued after bartender alleges she was 'drugged and raped' by her supervisor

Because, despite his claims, Trump didn't "obliterate" Iran's nuclear progeam last time around 🎁: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/u...

The #EspsteinAdministration just started WOrldWarIII

Trump has just declared war on Iran together with Israel. Not because it's in the interest of the USA. But because it's in the personal interest of a Trump. True, war criminal Netanyahu pushed for this-but Trump ONLY does things that help him personally.

🚨 TEXAS Voter intimidation alert This mailer is wild! They’re telling voters their participation is being “audited” and flagged as “INCONSISTENT.” Yes, voting history is public. But dressing it up like a surveillance report and sending it to people’s homes is straight-up pressure politics.

"The arrest of Prince Andrew just increased the odds Trump bombs Iran to distract from Epstein!" My article from 10 days ago. The bombing of Iran is about helping Trump distract from Trump's role in a child rape ring. Period. deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/the-arrest...

Salient and sad reminder that the vast MAJORITY of people across the Middle East, including Iran, or simply ordinary peaceful people who want to live their lives without any of this shit.

From the newly born baby, a US born citizen, being put in a torture facility where disease is rampant with lack of medical care & sanitary conditions to a teenage girl being detained in a hotel, the treatment of children by this administration is disgraceful! Share these stories! Tell everyone.

Welp

#BREAKING | Jordan suffered from damage due to Iranian missiles, this is the seventh country today that suffers from damage due to missile firing today, in addition to Israel, Iraq, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Syria and Iran themselves.

Iranian missile hits US Navy's Fifth Fleet naval base in Bahrain amid rising tension The retaliation by Iran came just hours after the US Department of Defense issued a departure notice for all military personnel in Bahrain. www.indiatoday.in/world/story/... www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

A large fire in the area of the U.S. military base in Bahrain following Iranian missile strikes.

JUST IN: Trump announced on Saturday that the United States had launched a major attack on Iran as he vowed to devastate the country’s military, eliminate its nuclear program and bring about a change in its government.

The SAVE Act blocks voting by demanding passports or birth certificates that over 21 million Americans do not have ready access to. Women, seniors, students, and low income voters pay the price. Call your MOCs! [202) 224-3121 #SaveActTaxesYourVote

Two out of three Black Americans do not have a valid passport and passport ownership rises with income and age. So document demands hit young, Black and poor voters first. That is what SAVE is built to do. Tell your senators to keep SAVE off the floor and vote no on it #SaveActTaxesYourVote

I’ve been saying this for months.

Hell must be empty, for the devils are here, walking amongst us. These men have no shame. Absolutely no shame. Pushback. Pressure them. Hold them accountable.

RFKjr should be fired for peddling misinformation, disinformation and destroying the U.S. public health infrastructure. He is hopelessly unqualified 👇

Once again, excellent, important brass tacks reporting from Marisa.

NEW: A draft of an emergency order that would enable Trump to ban mail-in ballots and voting machines on the basis that they are susceptible to foreign interference is reportedly being circulated by anti-voting activists who say they are coordinating with the White House.

Really don't understand how this isn't a bigger scandal. This is conspiracy to commit federal witness tampering (and likely witness murder) for the purpose of covering up a foreign government's deal with organized crime, a deal that has been affirmed by the DOJ.

JUST IN: A federal judge says the Trump administration has been “terrorizing” refugees — violating the promise America made to them when they fled persecution at home — by locking them up illegally. He blocked the policy for those in MN storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

“I’m thinking about waddling for president again in 2028.” — Senile Satan

I do think we’ve got a responsibility to really sit with the truth that some Trump administration things we’re horrified by were Obama administration things too, and we just didn’t listen.

The building of concentration camps shouldn’t just be a national emergency, but a global one. History tells us once these are built it leads to mass death and human rights violations and almost always war. Where is the UN on this? www.commondreams.org/opinion/why-...

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

The President of the United States raped children with a complete false sense of entitlement and absolutely no remorse. What are we doing?

While Lauren Boebert is snapping pictures of Hillary Clinton in a closed-door deposition… This is the only photograph of a First Lady that matters when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. Depose Melania.
