Trying to make sense of it all. I want to believe in truth & justice — that they can and will prevail. 💙 Hard not to wonder who or what we’ve become. For now, we could all use a lot more kindness. 💕
This flippant response is absolutely unacceptable from the Commander in Chief.
11 days into Trump's war with Iran and he still cannot give the American people a clear answer on why he started this war and how long it will last.
Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"
And he has no fucking qualifications to be conducting diplomatic missions on behalf of this country. Because these people are so awful we often forget they are also wholly unqualified.
Leaders of both parties should be calling for Witkoff's immediate resignation after these remarks. He is a Russian patsy, a traitor, and this has just gone for too long. It is has to end.
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
“As of late 2025/early 2026, U.S. active-duty enlisted force is approximately 67–69% White, with roughly 31–33% identifying with a racial minority group. Black service members make up about 20% of enlisted population, while Hispanic, Asian, American Indian, and other groups compose the remainder.”
Do not look away from the Epstein files!
Excellent informative interview. Rep. Frost is a smart, tech savvy representative who saw the redacted files at the DOJ. Allowed 2 hours to see them. Listen to what he found out on his visit & what he is uncovering. Impeach Bondi & Patel!
Cult
This is such a classic dictator trope — forcing subordinates to copy your style — that I thought it couldn’t possibly be real. Think Mao Zedong and the “Mao Suit,” or Saddam Hussein and “The Mustache", or Joseph Stalin and the “Generalissimo” outfit.
NEWS — Trump coercing staff to wear the same black pair of shoes that he wears.
“Everybody’s afraid not to wear them,” a staffer said, as some reportedly ditch their own footwear to comply with Trump’s wishes.
We’re officially in the dumbest timeline.
They’re all really fucking weird. And it’s insane that they are all STILL out there messing with all of us. How we don’t have any mechanism in place to remove these people is the most astonishing realization for me.
Graham is freelancing powers reserved to the president and two-thirds of the Senate, and to Congress as a whole on questions of war. He has no constitutional authority to make that promise.
Marco Rubio asked Trump for permission to speak Spanish at the Shield Summit of the Americas, while Pete Hegseth insulted Spanish-speakers by claiming he “only speaks American.” My take on how Rubio’s continued bootlicking demeans the office & our country’s global standing.

Are we still looking for waste, fraud, and abuse? I think I found some.
Trump's knees are buckling - for good reason.
My latest on Trump ridiculous new war 👇
www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/trumps-kne...
Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) and several Democratic officials and voting rights organizations have denounced the FBI’s decision to subpoena records related to the 2020 presidential election in Arizona’s Maricopa County. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Rand Paul: "I think we've gotten overextended. This is our second war in a month, and these wars are very very expensive not only in the lives that are lost, but also in treasure. I'm very very concerned about the debt. Half a trillion dollars for the military budget is fiscally irresponsible."
Rand Paul: "As far as reasons for the war, there have been many different ones floated, but none have been very convincing... we were told their nuclear weapons were obliterated, and now we're told their nuclear weapons are just moments away from being a bomb. I don't think the arguments are valid."
Great work by NYT showing Trump's war is the most unpopular ever. Supports my argument (see below) that in some ways the public rejection of Trump across the board is a very heartening development:
Great quotes in military history.

I wish I could say I was surprised

Granting the intelligence community access to large amounts of law enforcement data on citizens “puts Americans’ freedoms at risk,” Sen. Ron Wyden said of the administration’s plan. “The potential for abuse of that information is staggering.”
A++++++ question there
BREAKING: @nmdoj.bsky.social begun its on-the-ground investigation of Zorro Ranch TODAY. Epstein survivors have waited too long for justice.
NM DOJ is seeking credible tips about the crimes committed by Epstein and his associates in NM. You can report them here:
nmdoj.gov/get-help/eps...
Protestors gathered on the outskirts of Zorro Ranch for International Women's Day. ♀️
They brought flowers and called for justice for Epstein's unknown victims. (The FBI never raided the ranch, after telling the local police to back off).
