Iran's government is more hardline, its people are poorer and more isolated, the region's on fire, and the global economy feels like its about to go into shock

If you want to know why people wanted to avoid war with Iran for so long, you're finding out in real time

Grifters

$1.5T defense budget
$170B on ICE & Border Patrol
$100B on tax cuts for the 1%
$20B from Treasury for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$300M on Kristi Noem's jets
$100M+ for Trump to golf
$75k+ for Kash Patel's Olympic trip

And now $50B in emergency funding for war in Iran?

Priorities.

Folks look at you like you’re crazy when you say we’re in the midst of the worst, most unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis in American history, & then two aircraft carrier strike groups are heading toward Iran

Concentration Camps are being built in 2026. I say again, Concentration Camps are being built in the United States in 2026.

What *won't* these thugs do.

I agree!

Ofelia Torres, teen who fought to have her father released from ICE custody, dies from rare cancer Ofelia Torres, 16, died on Friday from Stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer, her father's lawyer confirmed.

A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody.
 
This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.
 
Not one dime for this cruelty.

Perfect.

RFK Jr/MAHA world say they're not reducing access to vaccines for anyone who wants them, only giving people "choice" to opt out.
But by refusing to even review new vaccines, yes, they are absolutely blocking those who want a new immunization from ever having access to it.

Angus: It’s like having to negotiate with Al Capone in his syphilitic period. You want to shut down the bridge? Go ahead. Every day, 1,500 nurses from Canada go to help keep Detroit’s health care system going. I personally think those nurses should be working in Canada.

This is the FBI’s list of “Prominent Names” it was tracking in the Epstein Case. This list appears in this slide show, FBI email correspondence, and FBI tip sheets — all of which I saw unredacted today. Believe the survivors.

ICE's Masks Are All a Lie Working for ICE is actually less dangerous than being an elementary school student in America.

Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America — and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record.

And the doxxing? It hasn't actually happened even once.

The masks are justified by a lie. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-s-mask...

Trump is in the unredacted Epstein files "more than a million times," Raskin alleges One document recounts that Trump said he "never" asked Epstein to leave Mar-a-Lago.

(🚨) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: Trump Personal Lawyers Bondi, Blanche, and Patel Hid From American Voters a *Minimum* of *95%* of All References to Donald Trump in the Epstein Files (950,000 of 1M+), Establishing the Largest Political Coverup in American History

This is like something out of a horror movie, my god

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.

They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

But Bezos had $75 million to spend on Melania’s vanity project.

Elon. Bezos. Gates. Ellison. Thiel. Andreesen. Altman. Tim Cook. The list goes on. The tech bro robber barons are in many respects shittier and in most respects more influential than their 19th-century predecessors.

Heads are going to explode 💥

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

A good thing happened today: Haitians in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere are (for now) safe from the planned ethnic cleansing operation. This happened because people came together — organizers, reporters, and those who care — and made it happen. Let’s take the win and continue the work.
