March 8, 2026 - Tehran at sunrise today. But the sun is hidden behind a sky filled with smoke. After a night of intensive strikes on oil facilities, thick black clouds now hang over the city, turning morning into something that feels like night.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, with no real U.S. standing army, asking Congress to approve a war also meant asking it to fund one. Now that presidents get the funding anyway, and there are no real consequences for not getting approval, it’s not surprising that Trump doesn’t care.

A little toy vehicle like that isn't going to have much of an axle, so that might bend under extra load...

...but importantly, nothing would explode per se and the vehicle is close enough to the ground already that failure shouldn't be very exciting!

My experience as well.

Plus you have to do semi-regular maintenance e.g. removing all the hair that gets bound up in the robot πŸ™ƒ

Just splice this audio with footage of ICE murdering folks, CIA bombing civilian boats, USAF bombing elementary schools, rural hospitals closing, USAID facilities closing, etc etc... and you've got the most potent political ad in a generation.

Tommy Robinson is writing for Jerusalem Post, and that makes some people uncomfortable - opinion
When journalism abandons the debate over ideas and focuses instead on policing who is permitted to speak, the search for truth quietly gives way to the enforcement of acceptable opinion.

Tommy Robinson wears a UTK logo ("Unite The Kingdom") on his clothes as he is seen at a rally in solidarity with protesters in Iran on January 11, 2026 in London, England.

Robinson had previously tried to address β€œthe Jewish Question” in a 2022 article which he deleted shortly afterwards. He divided the Jews into two types – acceptable ones and disreputable ones. He particularly had it in for the Anti-Defamation League – in his eyes a cesspit of Jewish liberalism and subversion internationally.

Like at this point it’s no secret to the people writing these headlines that this kind of thing has been roundly criticized for years and years. It’s an intentional, conscientious decision on their part. They know they’re propagandists (and, for better or worse, we all are!).

Trump Aides Too Afraid to Take Off the $145 Shoes He Keeps Buying Them β€œEverybody’s afraid not to wear them,” one White House insider admitted.

Trump is obsessed with buying his aides shoes, and they’re too worried about igniting his wrath to take them off.

If your objection to the war is that it's illegal you don't really object to the war at all 🀷

Trump’s War on Iran Could Screw Over US Farmers The Middle East supplies a huge amount of the world’s fertilizer. Conflict in the region has sent prices soaring ahead of the critical spring planting season.

there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran

Attorney says your settlement cannot be reopened. But ChatGPT says the attorney is gaslighting you. So you have ChatGPT make dozens of frivolous filings to reopen your settlement. The defense spends $300,000 fending off 44 frivolous, hallucinated motions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
