The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.

A truly extraordinary moment.

We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

Act like it.

The SAVE Act is a massive voter suppression bill -- and folks should definitely be resisting it. It's been motivated and justified by conspiracy theories about election fraud. But we don't need new conspiracy theories (about DOGE, stolen SSNs, and future fraud) to justify pushing back against it.

Search-and-rescue crews were β€œflying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.

Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.

But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:

Denial of quarterβ€”even the declaration of no quarterβ€”is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

High oil prices is a key goal of Trump’s war. Who wins?

- Russia
- US oil companies
- Venezuela (ie, Trump and his regime

It was sudden and hurried. Why?
Executing contingencies lessens the impact (ie, profit).

How they sell β€œit’s good” to MAGA will be fascinating.

Trump is basically telling oil companies to go play chicken in a war zone.

Three commercial ships were just hit and any competent president would’ve known the risk before pushing tankers into the Strait of Hormuz.

Instead, we got: β€œI think they should use the strait.”

I took this picture 6yrs ago today. I was walking to the train and caught this sunrise over my town hall in suburban NJ.

It also happened to be the last day I would commute into the city, as I decided to stop coming in bc of covid.

WHO declared covid a pandemic the next day, March 11.

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

Imagine a world where Americans were smarter and didn’t applaud when reactionary idiot Ronald Reagan made a show out of removing the solar panels Jimmy Carter had installed on the White House. We wouldn’t now have to worry about affording to fill gas tanks next month.

He has never before faced consequences for his actions. He certainly isn’t going to now either. Oh how we pushed for it for years. It never happened.

Hegseth orders makeup studio installed at Pentagon Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has not given any press briefings in the briefing room but has used the room as a backdrop for TV hits with Fox News.

So even after having a makeup studio installed to make himself look flattering and ready for his closeup?
