New NYT Opinion from me: America’s debt math only works if the rest of the world believes in the US… but they’re starting not to. What does that mean for our future (and for all this debt)? www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/o...
SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
Every single outlet that uncritically recites Israel's self-designation of "preemptive strikes" should be permanently shut down for good. Straight up. Definitionally no such thing as a "preemptive" attack when the country being attacked had no plan nor indication of planning to attack first.
We're on the brink of war with Iran for no apparent reason. Is it for killing protesters? Well, no. Is it for nuclear weapons? Eh? Nobody seems to know, but we've put enough of our military in place to make a war seemingly inevitable. I wrote about this bizarre rudderless buildup to war here:
The Supreme Court:
Update: the judge in the Stanford case has declared a mistrial, with jurors "hopelessly deadlocked" on both felony counts – a big embarrassment for the Santa Clara DA, who has already said he'll retry the case.
Wow!
Palestine Action win judicial review - Guardian report.
This is a *big* legal win.

JUSTIFIED “FUCK ICE” CHANTS #AEWDynamite
Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.
We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...
So apparently I was right to shittalk m00t this week because it's been revealed that his boneheaded decision to establish /pol/ and subsequently ruin the website was allegedly born out of a one-on-one meeting with Jeffery Epstein.
"It may take time to prove you're right, but you have to stick to it."
- Fred Korematsu
Jailed for refusing to abide by FDR's Exec Order 9066, he took his case against internment all the way to the Supreme Court - and lost. Remember him on Korematsu Day, January 30th. 1/
Another banger from Jonathan Guyer, who's been on the USAID-Gaza beat for a few years.
If anyone wonders why I really, really hate Joe Biden and his administration? It's because I had to work for them on Gaza. They're evil, evil people who deserve prison.
ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

People should not have to be perfect victims to not be murdered by the state or by a racist game show host and his lawless den of jackals and elite pedophile cover up conspiracists, but still HOLY SHIT MAN
ICE agents love to wave around paper that looks official. Most of it is a scam — administrative forms signed by ICE supervisors, not real judicial warrants signed by judges. Let's go through what that scam paper looks like versus a real judicial warrant.
the thing about “ICE needs training” is that Jonathan Ross was a ten year DHS vet and a firearms instructor
he’s the kind of guy they get training from
the whole institution is rotten, throw it out
Video message from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell:

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been dissolved, ending its 58 years as the primary funder for PBS, NPR and local TV and radio stations
Breaking news isn't a reason to skip alt text. Alt text is MORE important in a crisis.
Imagine how disorienting this is, now imagine not being able to see what all these viral posts depict.
The most frustrating liberal tic is assuming that because Biden didn't do something that it meant he couldn't do something. No. There were a million and one things he could have done with the stroke of a pen.
The current war should have ended in November 2023. But Biden wanted it to continue.
Van Hollen, Schatz, 15 other Dems demand Trump-Vance-Rubio get press into Gaza.
"The world has relied on brave Palestinian journalists…for uncensored reporting," citing 200+ Israel has killed.
They add Israel only lets in controlled media "who are not permitted to freely engage with Palestinians."
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.
