Coming up on 30 years since the Dunblane school shooting massacre (13th March 1996) and watching another documentary about it. The families wanted to end legal handgun ownership and we passed those laws. We’ve not had a school shooting since. I ache for all Americans who cannot get this done there.

Russia preparing the legal framework for global military action.
A new bill would allow Putin to deploy Russian forces outside Russia’s borders to “protect Russian citizens
abroad.”
Same pretext used in Crimea.
Same language used before Georgia.
Same playbook again
As a country we have made a lot of mistakes in foreign wars over the last 2+ centuries. But I’m not sure we have ever looked as feckless, foolish, incompetent and ridiculous at the leadership level than right now.
Your daily reminder that not a single epstein client has been arrested.
Sen. Murray: "I'm just sickened by this. To go into this war unprepared, to use outdated data, and to have this horrific thing happen where children were killed in a school sends a horrible message to those that are in a war with us and to our own constituents about what America's values are."
This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per week—and those are the ones we know about. It’s crazy to think about what else will come out after.
It’s absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.
Connect the dots
If his brain were mush it would be an improvement
Meanwhile, Trump spent the day in Kentucky campaigning against the guy who got the Epstein files released.
The fallout from DOGE staffers' efforts to access sensitive Social Security data continues as an agency watchdog disclosed a new investigation into "potential misuse" reported by a whistleblower. n.pr/4bkaRi6
After Day 1 of this debacle, all the MAGA accounts were talking about Trump liberating the Iranian people, installing a new pro-US leader, liberating women from oppression, seizing all their uranium. Not many of those posts 11 days later.
❗️G7 countries agree not to lift sanctions against Russia amid Middle East war
🇫🇷 The rise in oil prices caused by the war in the Middle East does not justify lifting sanctions against Russia, French President Emmanuel Macron announced after a remote G7 meeting.

Why is he still POTUS? Why are we allowing this?
Uh, oh. Farmers are griping about the rising costs of fertilizer for the spring planting season. One Iowa farmer said the cost is up by 77%!
Not great when the only people in the free world who believe and trust Vladimir Putin’s word on critical things despite all evidence to the contrary are currently running the government of the United States.
The fragile insecure flower is crying again.
Good thing trucks that transport millions of products every day in the US don’t use diesel so we don’t have to worry about inflation getting worse.
WATCH — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Every dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”
Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."
If this isn't abuse and fraud, I don't know what is.
We have no government right now.
This is what happens when you don't have a government.
(you get abused)
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.
Kim: The vast majority of what I hear in these classified briefings can be said publicly, but they intentionally do this to as a tactic to be able to prevent the American people from hearing and questioning what it is that they're doing.
They know that the American people do not want a war
😕 🍪
This is the guy who likes to downplay non-fatal injuries suffered by US service members in combat.
If Trump relied on Jared Kushner’s opinion that Iran was weeks away from a nuclear bomb when making his decision to go to war like he claims, that totally makes sense because Kushner is the most reliable source for intel on Iran nuke capabilities.
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
