I simply will not be taking lectures from the GOP on fraud.

Hundreds of billions of dollars are stolen through criminal tax evasion each year. And in first year, Trump's IRS referred two cases for possible criminal indictment Two 2 That's it. Nationwide Dems should make defunding of white collar crime police a top message www.icij.org/news/2026/03...

The world will be a better place when the GOP decides to stop insulting Americans’ intelligence. This is what Senator Britt is doing here, and it suggests a hate for everyday Americans, to think that falsehoods aren’t clearly seen.

Also on TV, IL Senate candidate Juliana Stratton on Trump: "He's not a normal president, he's not even a normal person." And Luke Broadwater/NYT talking about Trump's desire to be a Great President by common consent, like quest for the Nobel Peace Prize (cared about the prize, not the peace)

Stephen Miller, laying it on a bit thick. Dim-witted Donald can't even calculate through every permutation and every degree of strategy when deciding to get cheese on his Quarter Pounder, much less when deciding to launch a war.

Sen. Whitehouse on TV on the Justice Department and its extreme shortage of US attorneys: "cross between gangsters and the Gong Show". Or the reality, which is pretty much the same: www.thewellnews.com/justice/just...

This is the trust trap, and we have seen it play out again and again in institutions like media, higher ed and govt. The right feeds distrust, use that distrust as a justification to take control, and then undermine the core competencies that everyone else actually values, further eroding trust.

Hey maybe Trump is a secret agent for renewable fuels. In the fight against climate change, cheap gas is the enemy. He's just been lulling his base for ten years so they won't suspect anything.

You can shovel snow without an ID in New York City, for $30/hour if the storm is bad enough, thanks to Mayor Mamdani, and you can also get a non-driver ID for between $6 and $10, which in Alabama would cost you upwards of $30. www.alea.gov/dps/driver-l...

i think it's pretty telling that they keep saying fake things

WHOA. Lewandowski is accused of demanding fees from a private prison company to steer them ICE contracts, at a time when he was widely known to be running DHS on Kristi Noem's behalf, then punishing them when they didn't pay up. Congress should conduct a full and bipartisan investigation into this.

CUOMO: 'Good guy' is not good enough when it comes to running a govt agency. Would you say the same thing if he was going to run the Fed? RON JOHNSON: He's succeeded at everything in life. He owns a ranch. Elections matter.

Mr. President, the War in Iran is a disaster, prices are sharply up even before you set oilfields on fire, you're about as popular as syphilis (which you may have), tens of millions are losing health insurance, and you're about to lose 50 seats in the House and maybe the Senate. Your orders?

Humanitarian aid to Gaza has plummeted since the US and Israel waged war with Iran. Food prices have skyrocketed, and there is a growing shortage of medical supplies. Don't let the war with Iran provide cover for the humanitarian abuses in the strip. https://tinyurl.com/5n872ye4

A Seattle Gas Price Update Affordability! Guys, remember like a week ago on my way to Pike Place Market I walked past the neighborhood 76 gas station and the price was $4.99.9 Ameros? Last night it was : $5.55.9 Ameros (more if you pay by credit card) (Direct link to Instagram here)

So many Trump people are as crazy as he is.

He didn't intend to be insulting. He thought she'd be flattered. He thinks Tojo is worth emulating. Smart, like Hitler and Putin.

Those people who know relevant things are nothing but trouble.

Our government is targeting protestors in unprecedented ways, and the DOJ is pushing them to go harder. A protestor "was baffled after immigration agents seized her phone without a court order and tried to take a cheek swab from her. [...] 'What they were trying to do was totally wild.'"(gift link)

☠️ 🤣

This is why my team and I created ShAI LaBoeuf. And also why David Ellison paid me $170 million dollars for that technology.

When does the punishment begin for Noem?

doing it solely out of deliberate malice

look, we’ve been dealing with this asshole for a decade and still - still! - he finds new ways to take your breath away with his boundless idiocy look at her face!

impeach him just for this. i’m serious. this is supposed to be a pluralistic democracy, not a christian theocracy.

I’m not Christian, Mr. Secretary.

Least aware religious fanatic I’ve ever seen.

CROCKETT: Professor, are you saying you believe it's constitutional for the US to blow up people that are accused of being drug traffickers? "It's not going to be a yes or no answer" CROCKETT: I'm going to stop you there. It's unconstitutional.

About 70% of the U.S. economy runs on consumer spending. But as wealth concentrates at the top, the richest 10% can’t spend enough to sustain it — while everyone else can’t afford to. Reminder that trickle-down economics simply doesn’t make sense. It’s a hoax.

Isn't that nice! Don't think the bank has heard about it though.

"You, the moderate man, may be used for wrong, but are useless for right." Goddamn, Melville could really cook.

If someone yells "free Palestine" at me because I'm visibly a Jew, they are not expressing solidarity with the concept of a free Palestine, they're expressing hostility towards me based on a racist assumption that I am opposed to a free Palestine.

And apparently this was a fixture in Florida, specifically, for a good long while. A thread from one who went through it bsky.app/profile/mrfe...

State of the Union in a metaphor!

No more secrets. I was asked by Chavez to postpone grad studies to go work for him in 1988. (I declined). This feels personal. Live Updates: Dolores Huerta, Ally Abused by Cesar Chavez, Speaks Out as Revelations Spur Outcry www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

And Heritage, which hasn't done any respectable research in decades, the compilers of Project 2025, is the worst place to take on the job.

Fighting Socialism by forcing political propaganda upon the youth

That sounds familiar to this truly old guy who was in middle school at the peak of the Cold War, as the nation staggered into Vietnam. History as lessons in anti-Communism were pretty much the same quality as what kids were getting in the USSR, as some of us kids were already starting to realize.

Horrible www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/w...

Partisan note on this extremely distressing news—what you're not seeing from Democrats liberal and progressive, raised to revere Chávez for his contributions to the cause of labor and human rights is: denial, excuses, coverup. We say we're heartbroken, we don't pretend nothing happened. We face it.
