The war with Iran is insanity in its own right. But it is gross incompetence Trump went to war with Iran with no plan to keep open the Strait of Hormuz.

Now Iran is laying mines, global oil shipping is paralyzed, gas prices are skyrocketing and food prices are close behind.

It's a clusterfuck of mass stupidity. I wish more Dems were calling all of this out as clearly as @chrismurphyct.bsky.social has been.

I love that Nathan Lane said, "I got news for Timmy: If you think nobody cares about opera and ballet, I can’t tell you how much we don’t care about ping-pong.”

The way our nation turned its back on those who helped us at great risk to themselves and their families is an unforgivable national shame.

We owed Mohammad Nazeer Paktyawal. Instead, ICE arrested him in front of his children and he died in their custody. We failed him and his family.

Ted DiBiase Jr. Delivered One List in Exchange for $3.2 Million in Welfare, Witnesses Testify Former nonprofit operator Christi Webb testified she was ordered to pay millions of dollars in welfare funds to Ted DiBiase Jr.

The Family Resource Center received a grant of $497,987 to provide emergency food assistance in Mississippi, including through food banks and pantries. But the organization never got to use the money.

Instead, Christi Webb testified, it all went to Ted DiBiase Jr., at the direction of John Davis.

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

graph showing wealth concentration

Vast concentrations of wealth have sometimes - but not always - generated political pushback. In some cases, the very wealthy tolerated higher taxes or committed to philanthropy to offset populist dissent.

Now they pretend to be the populists, and keep the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/b...

Hidden on page 744 of the farm bill the House Agriculture Committee passed Thursday is a provision that would condemn millions of pigs to a lifetime in gestation crates.

Rebranded the 'Save Our Bacon Act,' it's a pork-industry play to wipe out every state law banning the sale of pork from crated pigs — laws the conservative Supreme Court upheld in 2023.

Over 85% of Democrats and Republicans oppose these crates. Voters have backed ballot measures to ban them in state after state.

The pork industry knows it can't win a straight vote on this. So it's burying the provision in an 800-page bill and hoping no one notices.

Contact your senators and representative today and tell them: oppose the farm bill unless the Save Our Bacon Act is stripped out. You can reach them at http://senate.gov and http://house.gov — it takes two minutes and it matters.

This is hideous and horrible, and the people pushing for it deserve to spend the rest of their lives in a cage.

Buttigieg: "Trump's political operation was raising money off images at a dignified transfer. Any politician who does that has no business leading American troops into war. If the president is willing to raise campaign funds over the bodies of America's war dead, he's unfit to be commander in chief"

Buttigieg: "We lived through a war that was sold to us on false pretenses when I was younger. This war has not been sold on any pretense. The president just went ahead and did it."

We need to:

✅ overturn Citizens United

✅ ban Congressional stock trading

✅ get dark money out of politics

To get corporate influence out of our politics and return it to the people.

Trump lied about the deadly nature of COVID, leading to the needless deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans.

How many Americans will die needlessly because this same man is minimizing the danger of waging war with Iran?

When oh when will Americans end their attraction to sociopaths?

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

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.
