The “Third Way” working harder to stop @aoc.bsky.social than they do to stop Trump.

Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack. "The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

complete insanity

AP: Israel launched a barrage of strikes on Beirut after Lebanese militant group Hezbollah fired missiles across the border early Monday. Hezbollah said in a statement that “strikes were carried out in retaliation for the killing of Iran’s supreme leader and for repeated Israeli aggressions.”

Rep Jason Crow (D-CO): “I went to war three times for this country and learned that when elites in Washington bang the war drums, working class folks pay the price. The tough talk of a five-time draft dodger falls flat for Americans tired of military adventurism”

Sen Chris Murphy (D-CT) to Face the Nation:

“I don't have any obligation to fund a Department of Homeland Security that is violating the law every day, just like I don't have any obligation to support this war that is illegal as well.”

Trump: “Iran just stated that they are going to hit very hard today, harder than they have ever been hit before. THEY BETTER NOT DO THAT, HOWEVER, BECAUSE IF THEY DO, WE WILL HIT THEM WITH A FORCE THAT HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE! Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J TRUMP”

DOJ Buries Epstein Files on Trump & Snowball Fight Turns MAGA Into Snowflakes

And it would be mighty helpful to the California AG if the other Dem AGs joined.

Bingo.

Democrats in four states seek to bar ICE employees from future civil service jobs Bills aim to make ICE employees ineligible for jobs in law enforcement, public education and state civil service

Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

It would ensure that the lawful redactions of those files protected the victims and survivors, not powerful men and political allies. It would get to the bottom of reports that DOJ withheld FBI interviews in which a survivor accuses President Trump of heinous crimes. It would subpoena anyone who asked on which night there would be the “wildest party” on Epstein’s island. It would demand testimony from prosecutors in Florida and New York about why they gave Epstein a sweetheart deal and chose not to pursue others who may have been implicated. It would demand that Secretary Rubio and Attorney General Bondi testify about why this administration is abandoning survivors and playing into the hands of traffickers.

But that’s not happening. Instead, you have compelled me to testify, fully aware that I have no knowledge that would assist your investigation, in order to distract attention from President Trump’s actions and to cover them up despite legitimate calls for answers. If this Committee is serious about learning the truth about Epstein’s trafficking crimes, it would not rely on press gaggles to get answers from our current president on his involvement; it would ask him directly under oath about the tens of thousands of times he shows up in the Epstein files. If the majority was serious, it would not waste time on fishing expeditions. There is too much that needs to be done. What is being held back? Who is being protected? And why the cover-up?

Mr. Chairman, your investigation is supposed to be assessing the federal government’s handling of the investigations and prosecutions of Epstein and his crimes. You subpoenaed eight law enforcement officials, all of whom ran the Department of Justice or directed the FBI when Epstein’s crimes were investigated and prosecuted. Of those eight, only one appeared before the Committee. Five of the six former attorneys general were allowed to submit brief statements stating they had no information to provide. You have held zero public hearings, refused to allow the media to attend them, including today, despite espousing the need for transparency on dozens of occasions. You have made little effort to call the people who show up most prominently in the Epstein files. And when you did, not a single Republican Member showed up for Les Wexner’s deposition. This institutional failure is designed to protect one political party and one public official, rather than to seek truth and justice for the victims and survivors, as well as the public who also want to get to the bottom of this matter. My heart breaks for the survivors. And I am furious on their behalf.

Infuriatingly, the Trump Administration gutted the Trafficking in Persons Office at the State Department, cutting more than 70 percent of the career civil and foreign service experts who worked so hard to prevent trafficking crimes. The annual trafficking report, required by law, was delayed for months. The message from the Trump Administration to the American people and the world could not be clearer: combatting human trafficking is no longer an American priority under the Trump White House. That is a tragedy. It’s a scandal. It deserves vigorous investigation and oversight. A committee endeavoring to stopping human trafficking would seek to understand what specific steps are needed to fix a system that allowed Epstein to get away with his crimes in 2008. A committee run by elected officials with a commitment to transparency would ensure the full release of all the files. It would ensure that the lawful redactions of those files protected the victims and survivors, not powerful men and political allies.

She emailed her entire opening statement. No wonder they don't want us to see what she has to say.

Hillary Clinton’s deposition was paused after Lauren Boebert took a photo & sent it to Benny Johnson, violating House rules. These are the most unserious people in the world. Someone tell Boebert that kids and women being trafficked isn’t a game or her entertainment.

Q: Rural hospitals in Wisconsin are struggling. Closures are creating healthcare deserts. What can be done federally to keep hospitals open?

JD VANCE: Unfortunately, this, like so much of what's going on in the country right now, is a problem we inherited from the previous administration

ORDER: The evidentiary hearing scheduled for February 27, 2026, is hereby CONTINUED until further order of the Court. The parties are ORDERED to confer regarding selection of a mediator. If the parties are unable to agree on a mediator by March 4, 2026, the Court will appoint the mediator. Once the mediator is selected, the parties have until March 18, 2026, to conduct mediation and report to the Court whether mediation was successful. Signed by Judge J. P. Boulee on February 25, 2026. (jkl) (Entered: 02/25/2026)

NEW: Judge Boulee postpones evidentiary hearing over FBI search of Fulton County election materials.

The judge orders the parties to conduct mediation and report back to the court by March 18.

The calculus is a political one — that more Americans would stomach a war with Iran if the United States or an ally were attacked first. Americans, especially Republicans, support regime change in Iran, but are unwilling to risk U.S. casualties to achieve it. Trump’s team is considering the optics.

oops. White nationalism is a helluva drug.

Second explosion in Kharkiv ‼️
Fucking russian bastards.

Trump’s ICE Is Quietly Stockpiling Weaponry—and It Should Alarm Us All In addition to staffing up at a furious rate, ICE and CPB are acquiring a vast cache of weapons from private contractors, new data reveals. This will not end well—or anytime soon.

Appalling: ICE and CBP contracted for $144 million in weaponry and accessories in Trump's first year, per data obtained by Sen Adam Schiff.

For ICE it's a fourfold increase, much of it for military-style weapons. A heavily armed secret police force. 1/

HOW 3 TRUMP-APPOINTED JUDGES HAVE STOPPED JUDGE BOASBERG FROM PROBING POSSIBLE CRIMINAL CONTEMPT FOR 10 MONTHS Apr 16 Judge Boasberg finds probable cause to believe criminal contempt was committed, but gives govt a chance to “purge” the contempt Apr 17 Govt petitions for stay and mandamus (a type of emergency appeal) Apr 18 Trump-appointed Judges Katsas & Rao impose an “administrative” stay. Judge Pillard dissents. Such stays, which provide no reasoning & are unappealable, are only supposed to last a week or so, if that. But this one lasts 112 days. Jun 24 Former DOJ atty Erez Reuveni unveils whistleblower letter alleging that on 3/14/25 then Principal Asst DAG Emil Bove told DOJ attys they might have to say “fuck you” to judges—the day before DOJ & DHS failed to follow Boasberg’s order to turn CECOTbound planes around. Aug 8 Katsas & Rao each grant mandamus, though neither joins the other’s theory. Pillard dissents. Aug 29 Same panel stays its own ruling and reinstates the administrative stay pending resolution of petition for rehearing en banc. Nov 14 Petition for rehearing is denied, but administrative stay is dissolved. Six of 11 judges explain, in statements, that Boasberg can resume fact-finding for possible contempt because changes on the ground have rendered Rao’s theory of mandamus inoperative. Dec 8 Judge Boasberg sets evidentiary hearing on contempt for Dec. 15 Dec 12 Govt petitions for second mandamus Dec 12 New administrative stay entered by Trumpappointed Judges Rao & Walker. Judge Childs dissents. 2026 Feb 24 [Second administrative stay now in ehect for 74 days. Total delay since April 18: 312 days, or about 10 months]

Reminder:
For 313 days, three Trump-appointed judges have stopped Judge Boasberg from probing possible criminal contempt of his turn-the-planes-around order of last March—conduct implicating, among others, Secy Noem, Judge Bove, DAG Blanche, and, maybe, higher officials.
