“This will not be solved by a harshly worded letter or resolution. We need action.”

Is Mountain Valley the new MAGA water? I'd literally never heard of it before seeing Casey Means with a bottle.

Pathetic. At 12pm, I'm going to be listening to what Timothy Snyder has to say about Iran. I suggest you do the same so you can come up with a better statement than this.

Join my conversation with @phillipspobrien.bsky.social about Iran on Thinking Live at 12:00pm ET:

Read his primer on the bombing of Iran: phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/the-usa-an...
And my thoughts on the reasons behind attacking Iran: snyder.substack.com/p/why-attack...
How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

“Israel has launched a preemptive attack on Iran, Defense Minister Israel Katz says.
Katz says he declared an “immediate state of emergency throughout the entire country.’”

"Just like the Forever Wars, this fiasco is also birthing its own captive constituencies... from contractors supplying it to MAGA-adjacent young (and not so young) men signing up for ICE, which Ganz describes as 'an employment program for the Trumpenproletarian mob."

And just a couple of days ago we had Ross Douthat bemoaning the shortage of "grown up movies" that are suitable for children. Ross may soon get his wish.

These Democrats are voting for Trump's agenda while going on TV to insist they actually oppose it.
We need to believe their actions, not their words.
Latest update from Columbia prez re: the abduction of their student this morning. DHS is fucking deranged.
“The agents gained entry by stating they were police searching for a missing child. Our security cameras captured the agents in the hallway showing pictures of the alleged missing child.”
seems obvs to me that mamdani gets far because of his charm. why do "male self improvement" types always focus on things like looksmaxxing instead of personalitymaxxing or charmmaxxing?
26.02.2026 23:25 — 👍 9916 🔁 749 💬 536 📌 151It looks like he also brought props. Mamdani understands that Trump loves headlines; even fake ones. See Time magazine cover.

Meanwhile blue wavers are tying themselves into fucking knots to tell us why Democratic silence and absolute complicity are the better strategic options as ICE terrorizes the country.
"What can they possibly DOOOO?"
ANYTHING. See?
In an overlooked decision this week, the Supreme Court ruled that the post office can refuse to deliver your mail, which is KIND OF SIGNIFICANT if you choose to mail your ballot.
To do this work, the anti-democracy wing turned to their favorite “black friend,” Clarence Thomas.
Along with everything else, that's Biden's fault.
