They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Even Gen X

This obviously very stupid but is it also smart? We’ll talk to some liars after this break.

My newsletter tomorrow will explain how Donald Trump is plotting to use his attacks on Iran and Venezuela to justify an unconstitutional power grab over voting in the 2026 midterms.

Powerful from @chrismurphyct.bsky.social 🗣️

Children of poor and middle class families are going to die bc of Trump’s “illegal” “war of vanity.”

No votes on ANYTHING untill we vote on the War Powers Resolution.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

The “Israel War Room” posts this clip of a worldwide children’s advocate and a mayor fighting for free childcare right after bombing a girls’ school and killing at least 85 students

Minnesota 2026 budget forecast shows a $1.3 billion higher projection than in November The budget forecast for Minnesota is set to be released on Friday, with a surplus expected this year but a looming deficit in the years to come.

Good news today in Minnesota.

From school meals, to paid family leave, and a nation-leading child tax credit, we’ve proven we can invest to make Minnesota the best place to raise a family while keeping our state‘s finances strong.

Yeah they do

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

Judge: IRS broke law ‘approximately 42,695 times’ in giving DHS data A court on Thursday issued an opinion on a data-sharing agreement between the taxpayer agency and federal immigration authorities.

A federal judge has found that the IRS violated federal law "approximately 42,695 times" when it shared confidential taxpayer addresses with immigration enforcement officials last summer.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

Major Update: Republican Senators Break and Demand Release of Accusations Against Trump as Anthropic Rejects Pentagon's Demands over Mass Surveillance Good morning everyone.

New: As David Ellison prepares to take control of CNN, legendary CBS News producer Mary Walsh, who is exiting, sent a goodbye note to colleagues.

In the note, Walsh writes, "We’ve been told to aim our reporting at a particular part of the political spectrum. Honestly, I don’t know how to do that."

KHANNA: You can't have Democrats stand while Donald Trump has an ICE agency that is killing American citizens


BARTIROMO: If an ICE agent feels a threat from someone who is armed, they are trained to kill

KHANNA: But Maria, we have a Second Amendment

RIP CNN

this is what they said it would be like under socialism

I am formally requesting the Departments of Defense and State to fully brief Congress on the rapidly evolving situation in Iran.

This is a serious moment that demands full transparency and congressional oversight.

David Ellison will soon control CNN. In response, I wrote to Democracy Docket subscribers today about the importance and urgency of building a strong independent media ecosystem.

Wow. Ellie Aghayeva — the Columbia student detained by ICE this morning — has been released and posted this on her Instagram.

Comes after NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani expressed his concern on the arrest to Trump in a meeting just earlier.

He is guilty as hell. He needs to be investigated and prosecuted for whatever involvement he had in the largest child rape and trafficking crime the world has ever seen.

Adam Smith did not believe in free markets. His main insight was that labor created value.
