for those fixated on congressional authorization, i get it. this is a massive violation of our constitutional order. even so, congress *cannot* legitimize an illegal war. there is nothing congress can do to make it legal under int'l law.

Obviously the president is full of it. This clipping is from this morning's Cedar Rapids Gazette. He gave less than 24 hours to "reach a deal" before a coordinated attack.

I saw @katmabu.bsky.social ‘s attack cat ad and I just had to say if I run for office you know Gofrette will be my ride-or-die.

‘Keep bombing people until they stop talking about the Epstein Files’ is the main plank of U.S Foreign Policy in 2026.

Rep. Ansari: “Why is the DOJ continuing to defy the Epstein Files Transparency Act by refusing to release the full Epstein files, by illegally withholding information, by deleting photos and videos of people like Howard Lutnick?”

It was never about protecting cisgen women and girls. This law strips transgender adult male and females of their right to pursue liberty. www.finedayradio.com/news/tv-delm...

Breaking: Key figure in the Epstein Files, known for his friendship with Epstein, launches a war in a bid to distract from Epstein Files.

As a women who listens to @tsn690.bsky.social everyday, I’m getting fucking tired of some of the men on there continuing to make excuses for the US men’s hockey team!!! 🤬🤬

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

Gonna tell the kids World War 3 was started by one of the cast members of Home Alone 2.

If you want to distract from the Epstein Files, maybe don't name your act of war something that also has the initials E F. Epstein Fury? Epic Files? We live in a grotesquely absurd timeline.

It's Caturday! Yay! I'm Dennis! #cats #catsofbluesky #Caturday

BREAKING: Adolescent teenage boys have taken over the Pentagon.

It's not hyperbole to suggest that today we have a federal government that doesn't so much represent or resemble a federal administration as it does a family crime syndicate.

Thou Shalt Not Start A War Because Everyone Hates You

Hey that’s weird. jmail.world/drive/vol000...

Here's mine Freaky Friday static electricity catto pic for you all. With tulips. Love you all. Hugs from my family 🩷

Lauren Bobblehead snapped a photo of Hillary Clinton mid-testimony and then deliberately it off to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson. So spare us the “I do not recall” routine. 🥴 The real question is, how much did he pay her?

Nope!!!! #Epstein #EpsteinFiles #TrumpEpsteinFiles

I have this cancer in remission (nearly 20 years now). I'm convinced the only reason I'm still alive is because I was (for a neuro knock-on catastrophe) treated with immunoglobulin donated by strangers. Their antibodies taught mine, got me out of a wheelchair. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Lunar Occultation of Mercury apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26022... Fans of the western sky after sunset have lately enjoyed this month's remarkable array of bright planets. Witnessed from some locations, on Feb. 18 planet Mercury even appeared to slide behind the Moon, an event known as a lunar occultation

"Assemble the Board of Peace - I'm starting a war".

Hmmm. In Epstein's sweetheart deal he got immunity for co-conspirators. Why when DOJ and FBI says there were NO co-conspirators?

I’m sure today’s theme will be filled with incredible moon shots…but this one will always be my favorite I’ve ever taken. Right as I pressed the shutter, a bat flew straight through the frame — turning a simple moon photo into a cool moment. #BlueSkyArtShow #Round #BlueSkyPhotography #Night

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Remember Trump showed classified docs about targeting Iran after he left his 1st presidency.. The Many reasons he was indicated🤦😡 he has been itching to do this for more than 5yrs.

WTF are these bumbling incompetents doing? apnews.com/article/mili...

How to distract from Epstein? Start a war with Iran for fuck sakes. This could have been avoided!

Best news of the day so far. 😎

Even if a bombing campaign would result in the collapse of the Iranian government (bombing doesn't do that) who is going to take over in Iran? What group has the legitimacy and the ability to exert stability?

Did you watch Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

The first FIFA peace prize recipient has decided to bombard Iran and set the US allies in the region on fire in hope that we would forget about the Epstein Files. Everything would have been avoided if the Republicans had a spine and impeached him.

Our lives are in his hands.

operation blowing up residential buildings because a dozen rich old guys got caught molesting teenagers in the 90s

I am calling for an INTERNATIONAL TRIBUNAL to investigate/prosecute/incarcerate the Epstein Class and their enablers for their massive international: 1.) Crimes against humanity including murder 2.) Corruption 3.) Espionage 4.) Failure to do their duties to protect No leniency. No pardons

Khanna: I think that there was some sexism in the way Secretary Clinton was treated. She was treated worse than President Clinton was treated.

Blame Republicans! They enabled this shitshow President!

This is because the Pentagon and Trump don’t like Anthropic’s language preventing their tech from being used to surveil Americans or for autonomous weapons. Which means the Pentagon wants to use their tech to surveil Americans and build autonomous weapons apnews.com/article/anth...

Trump locked in a 'feedback loop' as America 'abandons him'

“It’s weird,” he said. “I just did something that I would think anyone would do. What do you mean you would watch a stroller and a baby just sink?”

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) put Fox Business' Maria Bartiromo on the spot Friday over the killing of Alex Pretti last month by federal immigration officers, a killing that Bartiromo attempted to defend before being reminded of the concept of proportionality.

Call up Melania

What is really wild to me right now, is that the time to declare a fuckin emergency was when this stupid, but dangerous, motherfucker stole the 2024 election, but people still aren't ready to talk about that.

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party. We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness — or one rooted in cruelty and rage.
