A certain New York Times columnist is out making the claim that the key to understanding most of the right wing intelligentsia is that they live in cosmopolitan, urban cities that are centers of media and learning and thus there are no Republican politicians in power so they just pretend them up
"Iran is the third-largest urea exporter on the planet. The Strait of Hormuz handles roughly 25% of all globally traded nitrogen fertilizer. The attack came in late February, weeks before spring planting — the narrow window when fertilizer has to be on vessels, at ports, or already in the ground."
Pete Hegseth: “The only thing prohibiting transit in [the Strait of Hormuz] right now is Iran shooting at shipping. It is open for transit should Iran not do that.”
What a fucking idiot.
TRUMP: “Drain the swamp!”
REALITY: The Swamp has never been more full. He is the Swampiest Swamp Monster who ever did Swamp.

DOGE employee, who, in his twenties, made decisions to cut aid based solely on personal judgement, according to him.
I can't wait until we can primary John Fetterman. He recently helped GOP lawmakers block a war powers resolution and in his latest move (or non-move) he was the only Democrat who refused to sign a letter calling for a probe into the apparent U.S. bombing of an Iranian girls' school.
he's short on quagmires
The Dem won the Boca Raton mayor's race by five votes in the end, not one vote. The one-vote lead was after a machine recount, but a subsequent manual recount extended it to five votes. floridapolitics.com/archives/785...
A Democrat has won the mayor's seat in Boca Raton... by one vote:
Dan Osborn is hoping to win the Nebraska Senate race as an independent this year, after losing by 6 in 2024.
Will there be a Dem nominee in the race? Dems are accusing the GOP of having recruited a Dem to run in the Senate primary—the candidate, Forbes, attends anti-abortion events.

Incredible that just 24 hours after this tweet, it's being reported that America is preparing to put boots on the ground in Iran.
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
This is the story that caused Hegseth's meltdown today. CNN, of course, stands by it's reporting.
"The Pentagon and National Security Council significantly underestimated Iran’s willingness to close the Strait of Hormuz..."

Bwahahahahahaha. "Trump and Hegseth didn't see glaringly obvious flaw in their plan...oh wait, they had no plan."
I get it's all awful on all levels but
CODDAMN the arrogance and incompetence of this regime knows no bounds.
“The sooner David Ellison takes over CNN the better” 🤔
Hegseth weakly whines about the media covering a “widening war” instead of peddling pro-regime propaganda — makes it clear Trump ally Ellison buying Warner Bros. Discovery is largely about censoring CNN
Someone more knowledgeable than I am about these things explained the other side of "no quarter." When warriors said it, they meant no mercy given and *none expected*. I'd like to see Hegseth explain why it'd be all right for the Iranians to murder American POWs since he never expected otherwise.
Yeah, I think people who need to pay for gas will have something to worry about, Hegseth.
Look, if you have a Republican rep: now is the perfect time to call them. Quote your gas prices at them, and then quote Hegseth at them, and ask them what their response is?
Dear members of the Senate: if you vote to confirm Mullin to run DHS, people should absolutely hold you personally responsible for every atrocity ICE and CBP carry out under his leadership.
Graph showing that the number of consumer complaints that credit bureau Experian closed with relief dropped significantly after Donald Trump's inauguration. The chart also shows the total complaints received has continued to rise over time. The x-axis shows year from 2021 to 2025 and the y-axis shows number of monthly complaints from 0 to 200K, with tick marks at increments of 50K.
Under Trump's CFPB, two of the three major credit bureaus have sharply reduced the share of complaints they resolved in customers’ favor.
In 2024, Experian’s relief rate was 20%. Last year, that figure fell to less than 1%: https://propub.li/3OY2qBw
CSU closed March 13 Colorado State University is closed March 13. All in-person, hybrid and remote classes and operations, including meetings and work functions, are canceled for all Larimer County campuses. CSU crews are assessing damage after high winds in the Fort Collins area, with damaged trees the primary concern.
wow, I don’t recall CSU ever having a wind damage closure before
Utah authorities arrested a man because he had dried pinto beans. They thought it was drugs. By the time they realized it was beans, they dropped charges, but it was too late: ICE had found and detained him.
I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.
Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.
The 25th is never happening.

Tweet by Ben Rhodes reacting sarcastically to a clip of Senator Lindsey Graham saying the U.S. will “obliterate” Iran’s nuclear program after the conflict ends. The image shows Graham speaking on Fox News with footage of a military aircraft on a runway.
The story keeps changing to suit whatever they feel like doing.
Chris "Wrong" Trump Sec of Energy tumbles the price of crude oil with wrong information only to cause it to spike after retracting his "X" comment. Can America not see how absolutely unqualified this admin - from Top down - in unqualified to lead. They are destroying our economy & our government.
