“The Feb. 28 strike on the Shajarah Tayyebeh elementary school building was the result of a targeting mistake by the U.S. military.”
At least 175 were killed, many of whom were just little children.

Trump has peppered aides in recent days about whether longtime adviser Corey Lewandowski profited personally from the $220 million federal advertising campaign featuring Kristi Noem.
“… Sens. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., and Peter Welch, D-Vt., said Safe America Media signed a $143 million no-bid contract with DHS and subcontracted part of it out to the Strategy Group … The Strategy Group is run by Ben Yoho, the husband of former DHS spokeswoman Tricia McGlaughlin.”
What a colossal fuckup.
“Rights advocates said they were alarmed by the proposal, which they saw as part of a drive by the administration to place homeless people in institutional settings against their will.”
Hi, 🇩🇪 here.
This shit should scare you, 🇺🇸. A LOT.
He allegedly said "he needed help transferring data from a thumb drive “to his personal computer so that he could ‘sanitize’ the data before using it at [the company.] ... [and] that he expected to receive a presidential pardon ... ." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
So much ink will be spilled but bookmark this from @abuaardvark.bsky.social which probably explains 99% of it. The other 1% was Witkoff and Kushner.
It really is the collapse of the traditional sovereign state model. Israel is claiming powers and privileges over security that negate an claims to coherent statehood for its neighbours while its enemies are increasingly orienting towards permanent sub-state status as a survival mechanism.
I really think Hesgeth believed Iran would get knocked out in the first round and there was no need to plan for everything that was obviously going to happen next, Israel knew better but kept that to itself, Trump was incurious and easy to persuade, and nobody in administration dared push back.
Bloomberg matches the @theguardian.com reporting from yesterday:
“.. Iran has told regional intermediaries that for a ceasefire, the US must guarantee that neither it nor Israel will strike the country in the future, according to several officials ..”

Sheehy on video of him brutally manhandling a veteran who was demonstrating in the Capitol, possibly breaking his arm: "It's unfortunate. We never want violence anywhere, especially in our government buildings."
Who are the A/E firms doing this work?
Who are the fucked-up individual architects and engineers doing the designs and stamping the drawings?
And how in the hell do you expect to live with yourself for doing this Nazi-shit design work for Stephen Miller and Trump?
Hell yeah: make war political.
Trump, Hegseth, Rubio are all Republicans.
And one can use the Internet to find the billionaires and companies that gave money to their political campaigns.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Companies that licked Trump’s boots are now being targeted in the Middle East

Reuters: U.S. APPEALS COURT REJECTS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION BID TO OVERTURN NEW YORK TUNNEL FUNDING RULING
Matt Whitaker: "Russians have denied it"
Yes.
ICE agents don't get to carve out a First Amendment exception for themselves.
NEW: Before the Iran War, Trump ignored warnings that Iran could retaliate across the region and stop oil shipments. Now, with energy markets in chaos, some aides are pessimistic about the lack of a strategy to end the war. But they haven't told Trump. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/u...
The Federal Government has not demonstrated a strong likelihood of success on the merits or “serious legal questions” coupled with a balance of hardships tipping decidedly in its favor. Any harm from the investigation- specific disqualification is abstract at best, whereas granting a stay would reinstate an official who acted without lawful authority -- a clear injury to the State Government. The public interest likewise favors ensuring that governmental power is exercised only by officials with lawful authority. Each factor, and all four taken together, weigh against granting a stay.
Another defeat for another unconstitutionally appointed Trump DOJ prosecutor:
Ex-Trump campaign lawyer John Sarcone will remain disqualified as U.S. Attorney for Albany, and his subpoenas to Letitia James' office will stay quashed.
He's not likely to succeed on appeal, a judge finds.

Donald Trump owes Illinoisans $8,679,261,600.
That’s $1,700 owed to every household.
I’m demanding Congress end his illegal tariffs, rein in this lawless President, and deliver for working families.
My home circuit holds that under recent Supreme Court precedents, states may lawfully refuse to provide gender-affirming care through Medicaid. This is very, very bad. In part because of endemic workplace discrimination, trans folks are almost 3x as likely to live in poverty.
EXCLUSIVE Trump Ordered Justice Department Reversal on Law Firm Sanctions " never signed off on that, the president told aides WILMERHALE WH The WilmerHale law firm was involved in one of the cases. ANNA MONEYMAKER/GETTY IMAGES By Josh Dawsey, C. Ryan Barber and Sadie Gurman March 11, 2026 12:40 pm EDT
"At the president's direction, the Department of Justice quickly amended this filing," said White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. Leavitt said the president had confidence in Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who were serving the department "honorably." A Justice Department spokeswoman referred to the White House statement. Before Trump's intervention, top department officials believed they had signoff from the White House Counsel's Office and Trump's top aides to drop the case. But Trump himself hadn't been told of the decision, the people said, and has a longstanding modus operandi in legal matters: never drop a case willingly. Many other White House aides have wanted the issue to go away for months.
Per WSJ’s new reporting, it appears that DOJ, White House Counsel’s Office, and “top aides” tried to stop defense of the law firm EOs without directly telling Trump?

If you know who said, "Don't tell the president" (or whatever actually happened here), please, do reach out — to me (or Dawsey)! I don't care! Someone tell someone exactly what happened here.

‘This cannot be sustainable’: The U.S. borrowed $50 billion a week for the past five months, the CBO says
ehfuckingscuseme???!!!
Old enough to remember that a ~$485B _annual_ deficit run under President Obama in FY2014 had Republicans in a full, the-sky-is-falling lather. Here in the present we're set to borrow that much in 10 weeks?!
🇺🇦🇪🇺 Baltic and Northern European countries are considering providing Ukraine with about €30 billion in bilateral loans.
❗️They plan to move forward with this option if Hungary and Slovakia continue to block the €90 billion joint loan.

Do you hear, Putin?
Europe will back Ukraine as long as it takes to eject your occupying war criminal garbage mercenary wannabe soldiers from ALL of Ukrainian territory.
Go home willingly, and your dictatorship maybe still survives.
Or be crushed completely.
