Great questions…

Don’t forget rent. Trump said at the SOTU: “The cost of … rent is lower today than when I took office by a lot.” I challenge anyone anywhere to show that their rent is down…by a lot.

i feel like if i was tasked with not starting a war and bringing back US manufacturing jobs, i could have done a better job than this

Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.

Your daily reminder that not a single Epstein client has been arrested. #TrumpEpsteinFiles

It’s pretty wild that we KNOW there is compromising blackmail on our current president and it’s just kind of ignored.

Why is every tech ceo the villain from the Lorax

The Russian envoy claimed Washington now understood the “systemic role of Russian oil and gas in ensuring the stability of the global economy.”

Murphy: I have great sympathy for our soldiers and our military leaders they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind. And so it's no surprise that this war is going horribly

This is just astonishingly great reporting. All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them. And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.

Trump fired the people whose job it would be to warn him of the really obvious stuff.

Hi all, just sent out this piece. The US bombing of Iran has revealed a great deal already, maybe most worryingly how far down the road to Putinizing the US Government Trump has already walked. We even have the humiliatingly comic shoes to prove it. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Yes, there are definitely people we can point to and say the world would definitely be a much better place without them in it. This asshole is one of those people. Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, all operating in a way that harms humanity while amassing grotesque amounts of personal wealth.

These guys are all badly adjusted 13 year olds.

Black smoke could be seen in Dubai’s financial district where witnesses reported hearing explosions on Friday morning. Authorities there said a building was hit by debris from an intercepted missile.

President Donald Trump made a bloodthirsty late-night social media post boasting that it is his “great honor” to be “killing” Iranians as part of his war, shortly before more U.S. troops were confirmed to have died in the conflict.

Uh -

*while the new data center is poisoning a major aquifer* sure am glad i sorted all of those recyclables

What stands out to me is the arrogance. The surefootedness that this was the correct thing to do despite no experience in government. The presumption that they were entitled to use their own uninformed judgement to cut funds to things that they don’t personally value www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...

We’re not talking enough about what’s happening in Vermont. There’s no excuse for this brutality. None. Law enforcement has a right to do their job, but their job is to de-escalate, not assault people. Video credit: Itisu Siru

Bessent sounds absolutely rattled as soon as he comes back -- especially as he talks about how much his teenage kid is now considering serving in the miltary and places his life in the hands of Hegseth and Trump.

The slaughter in Lebanon is unfathomably cruel and almost no one is talking about it in the US x.com/ramabdu/stat...

First week of Iran war cost more than $11.3B Alternatively, we could have replaced every single lead pipe in the city of Chicago for about that amount. Cost: $9-12B There are many, many other things on which this money could have been better spent to improve the lives and safety of Americans.

The framing around limiting the US military’s use of generative AI for domestic surveillance should unsettle the rest of the world, writes Kristina Irion. Countries seem woefully unprepared to respond to AI-enabled mass surveillance by another state.

The radar installation in Qatar that was destroyed by Iran was a strategic level asset. You're probably picturing a big radar dish. The AN/FPS-132 is more of a massive, multistory concrete building that looks like a cut pyramid. A major civil engineering project. There was ONE in the Middle East.

despite extraordinarily stiff competition from the Roberts Court, Citizens United keeps its place as one of the most damaging Supreme Court decisions of all time

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “Gang members would drag us away if we didn’t come with them.” This undocumented teenager escaped the gangs of Honduras. In America he’s dodging ICE.

Meanwhile, in Vermont… People are getting gassed for protesting ICE. Yep, that’s still going on. America sure is great, isn’t it? #Vermont #ICE #SouthBurlington

We made an 18 minute video about Tesla and the doors, featuring a lot of footage that I obtained via public records. Now on YouTube: youtu.be/2lFzqBt3z0w

We’ve never, ever had this before. A President completely untethered to truth. I mean completely untethered to truth. That’s such a bad thing. But you know what’s even worse? Way, way too many people don’t care. And way too much of the media no longer cares.

The U.S. official told NPR that Hegseth's decision to scale back those efforts meant that the U.S. Central Command, which oversees U.S. forces in the Middle East, had only one staffer assigned to civilian casualty mitigation operations.

Well

I was told we already won this war.

The fallout from DOGE staffers' efforts to access sensitive Social Security data continues as an agency watchdog disclosed a new investigation into "potential misuse" reported by a whistleblower. n.pr/4bkaRi6

I'm a lawyer, not a mathematician, but doesn't that 10mil only come to about 3% of the population?

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet — and watching to see who refuses to wear them. It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now — never be the first to stop clapping.

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children. This is learned today: Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%. www.npr.org/2026/03/11/n...

A conspiracy theory is a "self-sealing" narrative that evidence isn't allowed to puncture. Evidence is dismissed. Evidence is invented. Evidence is a troublesome thing, but not for the conspiracist who is simply immune to evidence.
