NEW EPISODE: DOJ is sitting on half of the Epstein Files — and Congressman Robert Garcia says that's no accident. It's a cover-up, and Trump is leading it. Rep. Garcia and I break down where the Epstein investigation stands: who's been subpoenaed and what the DOJ is hiding. youtu.be/UE-QUZ0xB4s?...
Piss-Drunk Pete Kegstand is super-obsessed with projecting an image of himself as some kind of Alpha Top Dog Lethal-As-Shit Warfighter™ — but let’s get real. the only thing Pete’s ever killed with his own bare hands has been a fifth of whiskey. and, of course, nothing says I’m the manliest hombré to ever punch war in the face more than stamping your foot and holding your breath until you turn blue because your precious fee-fees got all hurted and stuff.
Plastered Pete Kegstand is big mad at photographers for making him look like the dickbrained clown he is. I cover this and all the other dumbfuckery that happened in "this week in stupid," my every-Saturday round-up. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION to reading it. link is here: bit.ly/4bH0sOB
One week ago. 🤡
What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.
What he says…

The cost of building a new hospital is about $100 million.
We're dropping the equivalent of 10 hospitals a day on Iran.
Trump decided this war was a better use of taxpayer money than giving Americans health care. It’s not.
BOASBERG: “.. the subpoenas’ dominant (if not sole) purpose is to harass and pressure Powell ..
“.. the Government has offered no evidence whatsoever that Powell committed any crime other than displeasing the President ..”

A story that might not be on your radar this morning...
WaPo is using algorithmic pricing to increase the cost of some subscriptions. Another clear indicator of why we need legislators who will regulate technology to prevent abuse like this.
Why. Is. A. Child. Molester. And. Convicted. Felon. Still. President.Of. The. United. States?
This should be FRONT PAGE news, dammit! Every day.
Palantir CEO thinks his AI tech will lessen the power of ‘highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat’ while increasing the power of working-class men.
“This technology disrupts humanities-trained—largely Democratic—voters, and makes their economic power less.”
So open cheating?
The job *was* to wreck and purge, just like Musk and DOGE. All revolutions need these people.
Two weeks into Trump's war on Iran & the damage is staggering
Oil above $100, civilians dying, w/ no endgame in sight
It's the worst of his foreign policy fiascos but far from the only one
I catalogued Trump's Top 10 failures & our pushback in this week's publisher's note @contrariannews.org -TN
TRUMP: “Drain the swamp!”
REALITY: The Swamp has never been more full. He is the Swampiest Swamp Monster who ever did Swamp.

"Boasberg’s decision," writes @pemalevy.bsky.social, "rubs the shine off the Justice Department, exposing it for what it has become."
Americans are dying so that Kushner can make money
Pete Hegseth is openly calling on Trump-friendly oligarchs to take over the media while unshackling the military from the "rules of engagement" he hates so much. What he really wants is a world in which horrors like the school bombing don't ever fully come to light.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
Fuck no. A million lawsuits now. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
“The clear winner of this war is Putin”
Must be a coincidence 🙃
Search-and-rescue crews were “flying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.
Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.
But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.
-A living wage
-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family
-The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence
Remember: These are the foundations of real freedom.
It’s almost like Putin and Netanyahu control our foreign policy.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.
Ancient forests are not simply collections of trees.
They are centuries, sometimes millennia, of accumulated soils, fungi, nutrients, and relationships.
We can plant trees quickly.
Rebuilding ecological time is another matter entirely.
Gupta: Why is Dr. Casey Means not right for the role of Surgeon General?
First, she’s somebody who wraps herself in a white coat — she did a lot of that during her confirmation hearing — but she doesn’t actually practice medicine. In some ways it’s just false valor.
@vanhollen.senate.gov has emerged as a moral leader. He's been on the right side of issues the past year.
