what a dope
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"

Melanie Stansbury: “While this Administration is spending nearly $1 billion a day on a war in the Middle East that has now claimed the lives of 7 U.S. service members & doing the bidding of billionaires — Americans are struggling to put food on the table & a roof over their heads”
CNN catalogs some of the many things that Trump defunded or fired before he needed them for his illegal war of choice on Iran:
1) Evac experts at State
2) CT at State
3) Cyber sharing at CISA
4) Disaster response at FEMA
5) CI at FBI

The military budget is $217 billion higher than it was a decade ago (after adjusting for inflation).
A significant chunk of that money comes from OBBBA & is still unused and earmarked for things Trump is likely to ask for in the supp. For the rest, there's flexibility to move some funds around.

🚨This is HUGE. In a lawsuit against Operation Metro Surge, a Trump appointee rules that DHS "likely maintained unconstitional policies" during the massive ICE operation.
However, "largely owing to" ICE's somewhat decreased presence in Minneapolis, the judge denied a court order on standing grounds.
YES. In the same sentence he said the war was complete, he proposed a policy that would vastly enlarge the war! Media reported the first half, and then later reported a different part to make it seem like a change! But it was incoherent, nonsensical slop all along.
This, too, is sanewashing!
Breaking NYT:
Two teenage brothers and mariachi stars who visited the White House last summer were just released with their family from ICE detention centers in South Texas — immediately following the visit of a delegation of Democratic lawmakers who pressed for them to be freed.

Trump: All of the people that died through the roadside bombs. Died and are right now walking around with no legs.
A March 3 satellite picture (sourced to Planet Labs) of a March 1 missile strike on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. The "damaged structure" which is marked, is close to a Radome, also marked.
In first report on Russia helping Iran w/targeting, WaPo focused on strikes in Saudi Arabia. NYT earlier revealed this strike on Prince Sultan Air Base--which they later implied was the strike that would lead to Bejamin Pennington's death.
We need to know if RU played a role in killing Pennington.
Evil and mendacious

First true thing he’s said in years
What a dope
Wut????
This is a giant fuck you to Spawn of Satan.
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
A federal court BLOCKED key parts of the Trump administration’s rule that would have gutted immigration appeals.
The rule would have made it harder challenge immigration court rulings that would result in wrongful deportations.
This decision helps protect basic fairness in our immigration courts.
DHS made a massive purchase of 2,500 new custom marked ICE vehicles that are now sitting in parking garages because nobody wants to use them: “ICE has never had marked vehicles. We don’t want to use these - we can’t.” www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/immig...
So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.
That's $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
