Some people simply need to be followed everywhere they go for the rest of their lives by a nice old lady from the American Friends Service Committee yelling "here is a depraved murderer in your midst"

Happy Saturday! It's the weekend! While the "no new wars" President bombs his 8th country in 13 months, we had heavy fog in New Jersey, so here is a view from Thursday morning looking north. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

"its not a war, let alone bad war, when we do it; in fact, it's peace, because it's us doing it, and besides, look whom we're doing it to"

The Drunk's Task Force Smith.

People are dying because of ketamine, X, 7 Mountain theology, white nationalism, and narcissistic personality disorder

and they didn't even have a plan for retaliatory strikes.

"As for those cowardly captains who deserted you, hang them, for by God they deserve it."

Oman's FM Badr Albusaidi, who has been mediating the recent rounds of indirect talks between the US and Iran, has reacted to today's attacks by the US and Israel on Iran.

This administration believes, like children playing with toy tanks in a sandbox, that the U.S. “did nothing” about Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, due to a lack of will or military might. Every previous admin bombed people worldwide, but even they knew (or learned) regime change can’t make lasting peace.

always a good test

Disclaimer: I’m long oil and short $CCL. Just need Cuba hostilities to escalate and we’re 🚀 (always be shilling)

America and Israel bomb Iran, aiming to topple its regime Donald Trump calls on Iranians to rise up. War could quickly engulf the Middle East

Iran’s initial response has been a flurry of missile launches, much smaller than the massive salvoes last June, but directed at a wider range of targets, including Israeli and American bases in the region

The government illegally took your money.

They won’t give it back.

Exactly like last time then

US and Israel strike Iran, seeking to topple its leaders Explosions also rang out in nearby oil-producing Gulf Arab countries.

So, does Illiterate Caesar think killing the king wins the war, like in chess, or Stratego?

We kidnapped Venezuela, and he declared himself president.

Will he do the same in Iran if the President or Ayatollah are killed?

Michiganders: Bill Huizenga (MI-04) and Tom Barrett (MI-07) are vulnerable Republicans and John James (MI-10) is running for governor so his seat is up for grabs. We have the opportunity to flip these seats to Democrats. Let’s go!

Well that was a lie

A call script for elected representatives: U.S. attack on Iran: YOU: Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m a constituent from [ZIP CODE]. YOU: I’m calling to demand [MOC/SENATOR] take urgent action after the United States joined Israel in launching strikes on Iran today. YOU: The Trump administration has again taken military action without any specific Congressional authorization. President Trump has also confirmed that the U.S. has undertaken “major operations” in Iran and has also said “U.S. lives might be lost.” YOU: I am calling on [MOC/SENATOR] to call for the following actions immediately: - Public clarification on the scope of U.S. involvement - Call for and support support the Khanna–Massie War Powers Resolution in the House. - Oppose ANY funding for military escalation without Congressional authorization. YOU: Are we or are we not at war with Iran? Congress needs to answer this question, and do it quickly. YOU: [OPTIONAL COMMENTS – e.g. Clarify you’d like a written response]

Do it now.

Yes, you can leave a message. Yes, call the DC offices.

Script here again.

Celebrating February holidays and observances: Presidents Day Lunar New Year Maha Shivaratri Ash Wednesday Ramadan Black History Month

we ended February with a flashback, reflecting on many cultural observances employees shared this month.

notably, 2026 marks a century of national commemorations of Black history, and in February, staff experienced an employee-designed traveling social/educational exhibit across our facilities.

These are criminal acts, and there is no way to find the other side of this without meaningful accountability for this—like “in the dock at The Hague” accountability.

Well, it was either world war three or letting black people have jobs, so I see why people just went with the world war

“What terrible news to wake up to” is a sentence I wish felt rare

A 1,500-bed detention facility is coming to rural Maryland. We’re calling on ICE to account for what that means — and asking you to do the same. An Open Letter to DHS's Sustainability Team from Project Salt Box

⚫🟡MARYLANDERS🔴⚪

ICE wants to convert a package warehouse into a facility holding 1,500 people and calls it an "in-kind" change. We disagree.

The public comment window to share open comments closes Thursday 3/5.

Tell ICE what you think — we've made it easy.

Don’t have much to add on the many intl and domestic law issues with the Iran strikes. But I’ve been esp struck by allies circling the wagons to support them. Carney et al want to build a middle powers coalition nominally more wed to the intl rule of law. Now would be a nice time to stand up for it.

The first deaths announced from the US-Israeli strikes on Iran: dozens of school girls. They hit an elementary school in Hormozgan.

I like to distract myself from the terrifying political news by reading the ridiculous political news.

Trump said he could end the Ukraine war in 24 hours. He had no plan.

Trump said he could deliver better and cheaper healthcare. He had no plan.

Trump said he he would rebuild US infrastructure. He had no plan.

Trump has no plan for Iran. Just blow shit up, kill some people, and see what happens.

surreal morning of trying to follow the news on Iran and toddler exclaiming. "there's too much poop, I need your help, I can't clean it up. see" shows me his butt covered in poop and poop hand mark.

If he’s not careful, he’s going to have to give back that FIFA peace prize.

Israel believes it has killed senior Iranian officials, including the defense minister, reports Reuters.
