Please remember that obeying the law is mandatory if you're an immigrant but completely optional if you're a pardon-protected Trump official who claims to enforce the law. nypost.com/2026/03/11/u...
“But they haven’t told Trump” is the real scandal that should be getting wide coverage, esp. since it apparently applies to all sorts of things, big & small.
An amazing stat:
Iran exported more oil *today* than it did daily before the war.
It's the one country whose tankers are getting through the Strait of Hormuz.

They're just bullies on the playground. Everybody is 12 years old.
If there’s no office to investigate the atrocity, does the atrocity even exist?
This counts for 60% of the marks on this paper.
This news just after the US Energy Secretary tweeted (& later deleted) that we’d successfully escorted a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz.
I’m making this my standard email greeting.
David Bier defended his Bloo-ski skeets admirably, & made Senator Foghorn Leghorn look like the fool he is.
This is how you handle the clowns in Congress.
1. We have "no reports" Iran has mined the Strait
2. If for any reason mines were placed, Iran must remove them or there will be "Military consequences."
3. Uh we just destroyed 10 mine layers.
4. But they were inactive! Nothing to see here!
Most tv-brain-scrambled president in history.
This should trigger serious lawsuits & investigations. (Especially since so many people warned that this kind of thing might happen, w the unvetted DOGE goons being given free-reign to go ham on govt agencies.)
Some good news!
Mike Johnson & his son very nervous about being exposed right now.
“Yeah, Sylvia—my set too. … And in the middle of Laverne and Shirley.”

They get mad when people on SNAP want to buy soda
I find Chotiner’s straight interviews with solid experts, like this one, to be just as worthy of a read as his interviews with bullshitters & clowns who get got.

Congress is complicit by leaving this madman in charge, & not even exerting their powers to force him to go through the legal processes for war.
Weird how this didn’t fall under DOGE’s “fraud, waste & abuse” purview.
Uncovering an American war crime would typically take a team of journalists two years and a Pulitzer but this guy just out and says it, at a press conference, three days after the fact, because it was "fun". We're gonna need a bigger Hague.
Ugh. Before a juried trial could be completed, the Trump admin rushed a settlement that lets Live Nation remain a monopoly that continues to fleece Americans & give raw deals to artists. Corruption wins again. So much for antitrust regulations.
you have to listen to everything he says but also ignore everything he says which is very difficult
