Trump: “I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for two weeks”

You think it's bad here?

"Hegseth’s broker at Morgan Stanley contacted BlackRock in February about making a multimillion-dollar investment in the asset manager’s Defense Industrials Active ETF, the people said, shortly before the US launched military action against Tehran."

"I use the money I made to help people who are trying to make life better for all of us humans." One of the reasons why I admire @craignewmark.bsky.social Now if only the billionaire tech bros had the same attitude! www.nytimes.com/2026/03/30/o...

#SAN this morning. TSA Pre, Clear, Priority Security all shut down. One 3-hour+ line for all! GFY POtuS and Republicans in Congress.

Politiken, one of Denmark’s leading daily newspapers, has awarded the Kyiv Independent the Politiken Freedom Prize. The award is presented annually to extraordinary individuals or institutions that defend freedom rights under risky circumstances worldwide.

Just days ago, Witkoff told us on @cnbc.com that Putin said he WASN'T sharing intel and that we had to "take him at his word."

These days I’m especially glad to drive an #EV. Overnight charging = $1.50 for 200+ miles.

The inimitable @jkbjournalist.bsky.social, whose dogged reporting first broke the Epstein story, has this today: www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c... The truth eventually comes out. Now let's haul Bill Barr into Congress.

Germany is seeing unusually strong solar power output in March, helping to cap electricity prices even as the conflict in the Middle East drives up the cost of energy worldwide.

Just as Trump opens up Russian oil sales to India. Exactly how much Kompromat does Putin have on Trump?

The people at @wired.com are kicking ass. The people at @404media.co and @techdirt.com and @theverge.com are, too. We should all be subscribing, donating, or in other ways GIVING THEM MONEY if they ask for it and we have it to give. Same goes for so many other journalists and news sources.

All I can think about is Jeff Bezos saying that he slashed jobs at the Washington Post — including those of foreign correspondents in the Middle East — based on "the data," and a few weeks later a whole war breaks out in the Middle East that these laid off folks would have covered as true experts.

Congrats to these 4 strong law firms that refused to knuckle under. And to Princeton, Harvard, Wesleyan etc who've used their fame and resources to set that example in education. And governors and mayors. And district court and circuit-court judges. AND AMERICANS BY THE MILLIONS, across the country.

Say it ain't so, @reckless.bsky.social

North Carolina’s Lawrence Academy has never reported Black enrollment higher than 3% in a county whose population hovers around 60% Black. It received $518,240 in vouchers in the 2023-2024 school year to fund 86 of its over 200 students. (Published Nov. 2024)

A MOTHER JONES SCOOP! New details from Epstein files reveal Lutnick had a years-long business tie with the sex offender. This challenges his claim he had minimal contact with Epstein. The two were involved in a deal for six years, and an email shows they discussed it. @nlanard.bsky.social

Love this:

From People Magazine: people.com/jeffrey-epst... Not only Putin’s money, but his Kompromat (perhaps in exchange for managing his money). This explains a lot.

As I keep saying, the Epstein story is an offshore finance story. And offshore finance is about elite impunity: insistence on their wealth and their persons being protected by the law, but never being subject to the law. It's the "Every man a King" fantasy made real. people.com/jeffrey-epst...

We only have access to this incredibly important (and evil) memo because Chris fought tooth and nail to obtain and share it! An impressive journalistic feat and a real public service.

There’s a lot to investigate and report on from today’s stunning deposition of Les Wexner. But here’s something I can’t get over. I asked Mr. Wexner if the DOJ or FBI ever contacted him to ask him about Epstein and his crimes. He said NO. That’s outrageous and unforgivable.

"Commercial interests, rather than military or political concerns, are driving the United States' talks with Russia," writes Charles Hecker, an associate Fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, in this op-ed.

Since it’s a holiday weekend and this published on saturday, I wanted to reshare this essay about a culture of nihilism that seems to be evolving. Maybe it’ll help connect a few dots for you as it did for me writing it (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

“Ted Roosevelt IV doesn’t like to put words in a dead man’s mouth. But he’s pretty sure that President Theodore Roosevelt, his great-grandfather, would have been “appalled” by an effort by House Republicans to allow mining near an expanse of wilderness in Minnesota.”
