I can understand why the Doge Bags wanted these videos removed. I listened to two of them, and both tech bros came across as breathtakingly stupid. It's scary that they had access to so much sensitive data. Elon lied. They weren't sent to do accounting; they were sent to do hacking.

Feels like every single Democratic official should be loudly pointing out that the president is a dementia-ravaged thug who needs to be impeached and removed from office, even if just to cover their own asses for when he inevitably tries to nuke the Oscar ceremony or whatever.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.

A truly extraordinary moment.

We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

Act like it.

The rest of us get asked to refrain from washing clothes or using AC during peak times…meanwhile, the flat-out race to build more AI datacenters continues so people can make deepfake videos. 🤬🤬🤬

Is your data center getting a big discount on electricity? That’s redacted. » Yale Climate Connections A look at secret agreements in Montana.

Data centers are becoming *really* unpopular, and one thing that's def not helping them is that they make secret deals with public utilities.

Want to know the prices they pay? The details of their deal with your utility?

Well too bad! It's redacted.

So much of what people angrily blame on dems for not being able to fix, is a result of Reagan. 🤬

Portland, South Portland police texted with immigration agent during surge operation in Maine Records obtained by the Press Herald reveal how local officials communicated with a federal officer, including on the surveillance of protesters, when more than 200 arrests were made in late January.

Excellent reporting by the @pressherald.com on the ICE surge in Maine this year. Despite official assurances that local law enforcement did not cooperate, the reality belies that: www.pressherald.com/2026/03/12/p...

Trump is the greatest criminal, the greatest TRAITOR, this country has ever seen.

Anybody who still supports him should be locked up, either in prison because they’re also criminal, or in a mental hospital.🤬

A lot is rightly said about Trump’s malignant narcissism and sociopathy, but occasionally he lets his mask slip and the very real psychopath that also lurks inside him peeks out. This is one of those times. His excitement over killing people is obvious and palpable.

McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…

- A guard on duty when Jeffrey Epstein died, Tova Noel, will be called to testify in the Oversight Committee.
- Epstein’s own accountant, Richard Kahn, gave contradictory testimony this week about whether or not an accuser of both Epstein and Trump (Jane Doe 4) received a settlement from the Epstein Estate for abuse. He now says he cannot confirm or deny. 

It’s time for answers! It’s time to depose Trump in this case.

10:50 a.m.: WisDems issue a press release saying Elon Musk "committed a blatant felony" in his post about his plans to "hand over two checks for a million dollars each" in Wisconsin on Sunday.

Just over a half hour later, reports show Musk deleted the tweet.

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.

Well done 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Wall art at Union Market in DC reads, “OPERATION EPSTEIN FURY.”

Look closer. Fallen soldiers’ names: Nicole Amor, Declan Coady, Noah Tietjens. Each marked, “DID NOT HAVE TO DIE.”

And at the bottom, the gut punch: “FIGHTING IRAN FOR THE EPSTEIN CLASS.”

This lady had six months of her life stolen from her and her family, her entire life upended because police both a thousand of miles away and locally trusted a hallucinating computer.

And all elected reps want to give police, including the Feds, more money and more power to do this.

A REAL ID may not satisfy what the SAVE Act might require. A passport will. However to get a passport you may need to enter a federal building. You can’t do that without a REAL ID now. So if you don’t have one and need to get your passport get the REAL ID first.
