Killing unarmed people is “overzealous.” Got it.
I've been struggling with how to express my dismay at the war coverage by our top newsrooms, and how it dances around the central fact that Trump is deranged and unfit to command. I finally wrote something. Please read it. presswatchers.org/2026/03/the-...
Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.
"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

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)
I was sure this would last forever www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
A Noem aide spent $3 million on pickup trucks emblazoned with the ICE name & logo, which ICE agents -- notoriously averse to advertising their presence -- will not drive, so they're just sitting in a lot, useless. The contract went to a Trump donor who owns a regional Chevy dealership.
One excellent way to place Americans at greater risk of retaliation is to convince Iranians that America isn’t just attacking their country—we’re attacking their faith.
Pete Hegseth is smart that way.
Here’s @jaketapper.bsky.social having American-Israeli *journalist* Emily Schrader on to tell CNN’s audience most Iranians inside Iran actually support Trump & Bibi’s war on Iran🤔, and claim Iran is moving weapons into mosques and schools (to justify bombing them… the Gaza playbook)
Shocking to learn at 13.00 that the files DOJ got from Kash Patel's FBI (for release to Congress) were already redacted by the FBI!
Representative Frost was fabulous in this interview.
goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024
Malcolm X: "A lie told once is questioned. A lie repeated often enough becomes accepted. And once it becomes 'common sense,' people stop investigating it. That is how deception survives."
….and here we are 😞
President Donald Trump's nominee to lead the Department of Homeland Security is facing heavy scrutiny after a report revealed he made thousands of dollars trading stocks tied to military action overseas.
Earlier this year leaked video showed the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore ICE Holding Facility.
Today we conducted an unannounced oversight visit.
Here's some of what we learned:
Also known as "using insider knowledge for war profiteering."
The bombing of a school in Iran has already started to create cracks in the MAGA coalition, as commentators generally loyal to the president are demanding answers.
Three million pages of Epstein files were released. Around the world: arrests, investigations, resignations. In the U.S.? Officials say there’s “nothing there” and the person who appears in the files the most goes unscrutinized. @gloriouslygloria.bsky.social examines the silence.
Q: You just suggested Iran got a Tomahawk & bombed its own school. But you're the only person in your govt saying this. Even your defense secretary wouldn't say that. Why are you the only person saying this?
TRUMP: I just don't know enough about it. It's something I was told is under investigation.
Millionaires stopped paying into Social Security for the rest of 2026 today.
Billionaires stopped paying in on January 1st.
You're going to pay in for 298 more days.
This makes zero sense. The wealthy should pay in all year like the rest of us.
Scrap the cap.
Q: You said the war is 'very complete.' But your defense secretary says 'this is just the beginning.' So which is it?
TRUMP: You could say both
It’s way past time for universal health care.

Roughly 3 in 4 oppose sending US ground troops into Iran: Survey #TheHill
If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.
GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.
Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.
Ditch the cap, and Social Security is saved for all of us.
Trump was broke in 1987 when he paid $79 million for the Resorts International CIA front company.
Also broke in 2004 when "Trump bought the Palm Beach mansion, Maison de L'Amitie, in 2004 for $41 million and sold it to Russian Rybolovlev for $95 million in 2008."

NEW: A GOP-tied group targeted Black Virginians with manipulative mailers on the state’s redistricting special election, claiming “Just like Jim Crow, [Democrats] want to silence your voice.”
While it provided no detailed information on the measure, it did depict Ku Klux Klan imagery.
Jeffries loves to condemn Trump for wasting money on the war on Iran, but is too cowardly to commit to blocking additional funding for said illegal war.
You won’t find a more feckless leader in a more critical time than Jeffries & Schumer. Cowardice personified.
