Nothing that happens in this war matters more than the fact this is the worst violation of the Constitution in U.S. history, an illegal war crime Unless Congress impeaches Trump this weekend, and it won’t, then we are a dictatorship, full stop

Does the FIFA Peace Prize mean nothing anymore?

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Yesterday, NJ District Judge Zahid Quraishi issued a blistering opinion calling out ICE and DOJ for ignoring the hundreds of court ruling against mandatory detentions of immigrants residing in the U.S. "It ends today," he wrote. It didn't. Five new release petitions were filed in NJ today.

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

"Music would play, they tell me the days were sweet and clear It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room that people could come from everywhere There was a time when strangers were welcome here" - Neil Sedaka, "The Immigrant" RIP to a man who saw this coming www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMPb...

Missed this yesterday, which was dumb because @willbunch.bsky.social is a never-miss. Powerful piece on a simply horrific story.

I knew we were going authoritarian when Trump won 16 months ago I had no idea how fast we'd become North Korea

Secretary Hegseth announced this afternoon that DOD will cease ALL graduate study by military personnel at universities including MIT, all the Ivies, Stanford, etc because such schools teach "the enemy's wicked ideology" to officers. thehill.com/policy/defen...

The administration spokesperson is either lying or completely deluded by bias when announcing: “This is the best health care,” Ms. Bis said, that “many aliens have received in their entire lives.” www.nytimes.com/2026/02/27/u...

The family of Nurul Amin Shah Alam waited for hours at the county jail, expecting a joyful reunion with the Rohingya refugee unjustly locked up for a year No one told them CBP had arrested him, then dumped him at a closed donut shop to die New details in my column share.inquirer.com/pFmrEq

Big protest at the Lincoln Monument. Seven D.C. high schools walked out to come here.

"Women in tight uniforms and maggots in the soft serve: Two ex-employees sue Trump’s N.J. golf club" Abraham Gutman for @inquirer.com [How the heck did I miss this story from January?!]

ICE bad and also, around half of people killed by police have a disability. Their final moments are usually spent in frantic terror trying to "comply" with commands before cops shoot. Not opening a door or answering a question fast enough in this country can be a death sentence.

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.

More proof (this from The Bulwark) that literally no one in America knows the difference between Greg Bovino and Dan Bongino, perhaps not even their own families

This is actually insane. Tiger Woods, Tim Tebow, Adam Silver, Charlie Ward, Condoleeza Rice, Jim Pitaro, Nick Saban & Urban Meyer. We're just missing the starting lineup of the '76 Flyers.

Tequila Talk In 10! Trump Threatens “Emergency” to Cancel Midterms (Really, Not Fucking Clickbait). My pal Joe Walsh had a thing to say on this at State of the Swamp (SOTS)! We’ll drink tequila! And it’ll be MUCH shorter than f-ing SOTU :)! www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnxU...

Border Patrol agents — apparently after learning the stateless refugee could not be legally deported — drove this disabled & nearly sightless man with no phone to a Tim Horton’s doughnut shop & dumped him there, five miles from his family’s home.

The perfect example: The Democrat pols (like Pa.'s Shapiro, Fetterman) out there opposing warehouse concentration camps because of water and sewage issues and not because THEY ARE CONCENTRATION CAMPS

Trump's cover-up is breaking open. The entire ‘Epstein class’ in danger. Meanwhile the president is safe in his executive suite. A THREAD.

My former employer, the Chicago Tribune, was mocked recently for an editorial saying we should be "happy" the Vances are expecting a baby. This thread recalls odd Tribune editorials of the past – praise for Mussolini, opposition to Black voting, a denunciation of 21-year-old Hillary Clinton. 1/14🧵🧵🧵

The speed with which American voters are turning against data centers is breathtaking. One comparison might be what happened to nuclear after the doublewhammy of "The China Syndrome" debuting days before Three Mile Island, except there's no equivalent in terms of Hollywood or industrial accidents.

I was/am seriously thinking about a variation of this column (not tied to Texas, but that's a good suggestion!) this weekend, so mock me in advance I guess

Bluesky is now officially a UK site

Today I learned the Phillies have a pitcher in training camp named Zach Pop, who would immediately challenge Tank Bigsby for the best sports name in town

My heart can’t take this.

This targeted UnitedHealth ad on a story about American healthcare becoming unaffordable is way too spot on

Important observation that should be mentioned in every future article about Trump and Iran. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/26/u...

Every stage of this process - his arrest, spending a year in jail, being dumped on the streets to die - would be deeply shameful in a society that actually valued human life.

Investigative Post obtained this video of Border Patrol abandoning Nurul Shah Alam, the nearly blind Burmese refugee who was found dead www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/26/t...

BREAKING: The U.S. military used a laser to take down a Customs and Border Protection drone, lawmakers say, and FAA closed airspace near El Paso, Texas.

A senior CBS News staffer expressed sympathy for employees at CNN who are frustrated and upset over the Paramount news. "I need to keep reminding myself it can - and will - always get worse," the staffer told me, adding that CNN staffers "should" be freaking out since "it's hell over here."

Another war that Donald Trump didn't stop The prestigious FIFA Peace Prize has been beclowned

This is the walk Nurul Amin Shah Alam would have had to make to get home safely. www.google.com/maps/dir/220...

I turned this into a column - let me know what you think www.inquirer.com/opinion/alam...

in 2012, it was six. now it's four.

Thanks, @willbunch.bsky.social for calling attention to this outrage. www.inquirer.com/opinion/alam...

You know who else declared "a national emergency"? www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

As someone who is also "no longer financially attractive," I can relate here to getting dumped

Why the Trump-Backed Save America Act Threatens Election Security Nationwide | Buried in the bill is a mandate requiring every state to funnel voter data into a centralized voter-purge system plagued by security and accuracy concerns and controlled by the Trump admin, warns @jennycohn.bsky.social.

I hope Mamdani has a hostage liberation ceremony at City Hall

A Trump-aligned legal team, which includes attorneys from Stephen Miller’s America First Legal, has been filing lawsuits against DEI efforts in Philly. After challenging diversity in city contracting and school admissions, their latest is about police promotions. www.inquirer.com/news/philade...

I will be carrying a sign with his portrait on March 28. His death must not be in vain. We must put an end to the savagery of this administration.

The U.S. Border Patrol abandoned a blind, disabled Rohingya refugee to die in frigid Buffalo, a new low for the Trump regime, writes @willbunch.bsky.social.

This.
