This was my second visit to the ICE facility in Baltimore. Each time, it made the hair stand up on my arms.
The conditions are inhumane, and the treatment of people is unacceptable.
Instead of lowering gas prices, this Administration chooses to spend its time on this CRUELTY.
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) speaks to reporters after attending a closed door briefing with Senate Armed Service Committee at the U.S. Capitol Building on March 10, 2026 in Washington, DC.

Elizabeth Warren: “For the Trump administration to say over & over, there's no money for healthcare – there's no money for childcare – there's no time to pay attention to how families are paying more – but there's a billion dollars a day to go to the Middle East & drop bombs on Iran”
"Trump chose to go to war and has taken explicit satisfaction in his power of life and death. War is a grave step after all other options have been exhausted. That Trump had other courses of action is well known. That he preferred this one is hard to unsee." My column. www.ft.com/content/2f3e...
This war is more a manifestation of a personality disorder than any coherent strategy. You knew that, but @edwardluce.bsky.social frames it well and persuasively in his latest excellent column.
Some people are indeed punchable.
Hegseth’s indefensible spending spree to avoid budget decrease while Americans go without healthcare and food. Federal agencies must spend allotted budget or lose it for the following year but they have a rediculous surplus. Pentagon’s list of luxuries is indefensible.

Leavitt: "The president has made it quite clear it's his belief, based on fact, that the Cuban regime is bound to fall. The people are crying out for help."
Hey Nick Shirley … any insight here?
BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
Trump has spent 'more time' consulting with Putin on Iran than Congress: Sen. Coons.

Democrats need at least some Republicans in order to pass anything now in Congress. All but one ( FETTERMAN ), of 47 Senate Democrats supported it, but ONLY ONE REPUBLICAN ( Rand Paul ). 210 House Democrats support it, but ZERO REPUBLICANS! So slander, condemn, criticize Republicans NOT DEMOCRATS!!!
DHS moved everybody off homeland security to chasing down children and throwing them in camps, you racist giraffe.
Should anything, it's squarely on that orange felon you're on your knees for.
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."

Who put this MFer in charge of the world?
Or a pedophile who bullies them…
Good morning. ☕️
UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE.
In their remarks, neither Pete Hegseth nor Dan Caine this morning addressed the girls school that was bombed.
They did not get A SINGLE QUESTION about it from people they called on in the room loaded with right-wing hacks.
👍👍👍👍🥊
The same assholes who chastised President Biden about pulling US troops out of Afghanistan are now super quiet about thousands of Americans being stranded in the Middle East all because a white supremacist criminal wanted go on a bombing murder spree.
"Late cranes with heavy wing, and lazy flight,
Sail up the silence with the nearing night
And like a spirit, swathed in some soft veil,
Steals twilight and its shadows o’er the swale
Hushed lie the sedges, and the vapours creep,
Thick, grey and humid, while the marshes sleep"
-E. Pauline Johnson
happy bday E. Pauline Johnson b.1861, also known by her Mohawk sname Tekahionwake, Canadian poet/performer.
"Where the very silence slumbers,
Water lilies grow in numbers,
Pure and pale;
All the morning they have rested,
Amber crowned, and pearly crested,
Fair and frail."
