Pete Hegseth Says ‘the Sooner David Ellison’ Buys CNN, ‘the Better’

Billionaire control of the media is a danger to us all. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/b...

Lawmakers push to ban government officials from prediction markets after bets on Iran strike, Khamenei's death Senators are calling for new legislation after millions of dollars in bets were placed on prediction market sites tied to U.S. air strikes on Iran and the death of the country's supreme leader.

No one should be using confidential government information to profit from world events. 

That’s why I introduced legislation with Senator Merkley to ban federal officials from trading on prediction markets and to make it easier to go after bad actors.

Oil prices stay high despite US temporarily lifting sanctions on Russian oil stranded at sea | CNN Business Oil prices traded around the highest levels since 2022 Friday, shrugging off the Trump administration’s earlier decision to temporarily allow the delivery and sale of sanctioned seaborne Russian crude...

Russia helped Iran target American servicemembers.

Now Donald Trump is easing sanctions on Russian oil to address high gas prices. Rewarding Putin while our troops are under threat is unacceptable.

Trump treats war like a game (w/no end game in sight).
Impeach the S.O.B.!

@ossoff.senate.gov is the ONLY Democratic U.S. Senator up for reelection in a state Trump won.
He’s MAGA’s #1 target in the midterms.
There’s no path back from the brink of authoritarianism without defending this seat. Go to electjon.com & support Jon!

Americans want lower prices, not unconstitutional wars, rising gas prices, and chaos in the markets.

(between images of a map showing the nearly 3,000 No Kings Day events planned for March 28) NO THRONES. NO CROWNS.

We’re rapidly approaching 3,000 No Kings Day events, which means March 28 is going to be the biggest protest in US history. Let’s make it clear that America rejects the regime’s brutality at home and abroad: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

While millions are struggling to make ends meet, Donald Trump is exploiting the presidency to get even richer through shady crypto deals and blatant self-dealing.

New "Golden Age" for whom, exactly?

To everyone who wants to vilify trans people: Trans people aren’t raising your rents or driving up your costs.

To every trans person: We see you, we love you, you belong here, and you deserve to be who you are.

Americans want lower prices, not an unconstitutional war, rising gas prices, and chaos in the markets.

“No one gives a sh*t about housing.”

“Affordability is a Democrat scam.”

“If [gas prices] rise, they rise.”

It couldn't be clearer: Trump never cared about lowering the cost of living.

You'll Never Guess Who's Winning the War With Iran YouTube video by Sen. Adam Schiff

There are few people in the world who have derived more benefit from our war with Iran than the Russian dictator, Vladimir Putin.

We explain why:

What a desperate little man Mikey is...

Pax will have to move to the side...is there enough room for the both??

TONIGHT: If you can’t figure out what’s going on in Iran, that’s ok. The administration can’t either. The Breakdown airs at 7 PM EST: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIaC_riI-RI

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

As the war in Iran enters day 13, the Trump administration is doubling down on misinformation, miscalculations, and misplaced priorities to justify its erratic aggression in the region. @coons.senate.gov joins The Weeknight to respond

Veteran: Trump promised that there would be no wars. So to get into this war, it's such a fundamental betrayal of one of the core tenets of this movement.

Senate rejects DHS funding bill as shutdown nears one-month mark Democratic senators sought to pass bills to fund specific agencies like TSA, the Coast Guard and FEMA. But Republicans objected.

Credit where credit is due. @democrats.senate.gov are holding the line. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Better headline: Republicans refuse to fund FEMA, TSA and CISA during their DHS shutdown.

Popular podcast host Allison Gill consistently warned about war with Iran leading up to the 2024 election and never endorsed Donald Trump.

NEW: CENTCOM says a U.S. KC-135 refueling aircraft was lost over western Iraq during operations, while a second aircraft involved in the incident landed safely.

Stupid comment.

Remember when Jimmy Carter sold his peanut farm?

Gupta: Why is Dr. Casey Means not right for the role of Surgeon General?

First, she’s somebody who wraps herself in a white coat — she did a lot of that during her confirmation hearing — but she doesn’t actually practice medicine. In some ways it’s just false valor.
