Whoa. This is big. "The U.S. Navy has refused near-daily requests from the shipping industry for military escorts through the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the war on Iran, saying the risk of attacks is too high for now." www.reuters.com/world/middle...
He's the one who's never been in a grocery store. Buying with SNAP is exactly like buying with a debit card, besides which over half the population of the US will get SNAP at some point in their lives.
Never underestimate the ingenuity of teens.

I don’t think people who aren’t regularly covering the reproductive rights beat realize how common it is for women to be incarcerated for miscarriages.
The idea that opposing and rolling back trans rights is good for cis women and girls is ludicrous on every level and absolutely enraging when applied in legislation and policy that obviously limits and rolls backs rights for ALL women and girls
WALLACE: Why are we at war with Iran?
CHRIS MURPHY: Great question. The simplest explanation might be the one they gave 24 hours in that they've kind of tried to backtrack from since -- that Israel made us do it.
Scoop: DHS ousted multiple privacy officers at CBP after they questioned orders to purposely mislabel records about government surveillance to prevent their release under FOIA.
I covered this story at Law Dork over the weekend and am very glad to see that Gov. Ivey stopped this execution from taking place. www.lawdork.com/p/alabama-so...

*IRAN'S IRIB: EXPLOSION OF AN OIL TANKER NEAR ABU DHABI
Marching orders are given. "That school had it coming." See it parroted by influencers and media outlets.
MERKLEY: So when the VP said 'ICE agents have absolute immunity' in violating people's civil rights, he was effectively correct?
BIER: Effectively, yes. Right now as the law stands.
BREAKING:
The DNC is suing the Trump admin to try to compel the government to say whether it is planning to put armed federal agents or military personnel at polling places and election offices this year.
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."
you see we didnt hit iran. iran slipped and fell in the kitchen and thats why iran has a black eye. if iran would just stop being clumsy we wouldnt have to get so mad at them. if iran would just use its brain we wouldnt have to yell at iran...
One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...
A high-powered Chicago law firm announced a plan Monday to push for the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate and potentially charge the agents who carried out Operation Midway Blitz.

NEW: We filed a motion to stop the U.S. Department of Justice from accessing Kentucky voters' personal data.
This is the 23rd state, plus DC, where we've taken action to protect voters' privacy ahead of the midterm elections.
TRUMP SAYS “I THINK THE (IRAN) WAR IS VERY COMPLETE, PRETTY MUCH"
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
BREAKING: Kevin Kiley (R-CA) is SWITCHING PARTIES. Effective immediately, he is leaving the Republican party to become an Independent. This complicates Mike Johnson’s slim majority. www.cbsnews.com/news/kevin-k...
This is nonsense.
In 1976, studies showed that less than 40% of jobs in America paid enough to support a family of four on their own.
One, they wanted the content.
Two, they wanted to get rid of women and Black people.
