As the current war in Ukraine enters its fifth year, Ali Velshi reunites with a former refugee who fled Russia's invasion. Nastya Shpot says she has been inspired by her own journey taking journalists to Ukraine’s frontlines. “I was like, ‘This is my moment, this is something I want to do.’”
“legally evacuated to the U.S. after the fall of Kabul”
1. Who are these "Jewish leaders from NYC" that he met with who were totes cool with a Totenkopf SS insignia?
2. "Collins sent me to Iraq?" He VOTED FOR COLLINS MULTIPLE TIMES.
Platner was born in 1984, which means the earliest he could've voted for her was 2002...and again in 2008, 2014 or 2020.
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."
They have one play and they couldn't even do that right with charlie kirky because after getting like 100 people irl trouble they devolved into entirely online circlejerking, it's had diminishing returns since
Just completely cooked brains poasting entirely disengaged from reality
Oh my
that's why I'm totally skeptical of this idea that if we intentionally break the government, people will get madder at Trump and... what, storm the White House?
they destroyed ACA subsidies and fucked health care for millions of people and NOBODY CARED. yawn. more superb owl pls.
It would not in fact do that, but boy have a bunch of dipshits on here convinced themselves it would so they can do russ vought's work for him
This is perfect; all our allies can tell the world it's naval escort week, then just keep saying it each week a la Infrastructure Week.
I hope France or Canada says they're "developing a concept of a plan".
Personally, my favorite allied-country expression of naval non-commitment is “intensively looking”. What’s yours?
Everything about this picture is how I pictured trump's second term
You’re welcome to come back next week to tell us how our dominant victory continues

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...
Dallas County Dems have dropped a lawsuit that sought to count 1,756 primary ballots cast during extended voting hours:
“the Texas Supreme Court is no longer a viable forum for seeking a fair and independent application of the law regarding this issue.”
The GOP successfully suppressed these voters
For decades Republicans have claimed that they needed to pass restrictive voting laws to combat fraud. Now they say the quiet part out loud that we've always known. They seek to burden Democratic voters to help them win elections. Even Trump's DOJ has found little evidence of noncitizen voting
Man Who Spat on Allies For a Year Demands the World Clean Up His Catastrophe
After Trump took a break from commander-in-chiefing for rounds of golf this weekend, he is only five away from having spent a full 365 days of his two terms on the course.

Blunt reality: Americans are not "taxed enough already." We aren't taxed enough, actually.
Norway collects 31% of GDP as taxes. The United States collects 12% of GDP as taxes.
That, not "military spending," is the real reason that Greenlanders have "free" health care and Americans don't.
When Christi Webb tried to cut off the flow of millions in welfare funds to ex-pro wrestler Teddy DiBiase, Mississippi welfare chief John Davis called her crying, she testified.
“‘The only way I can have friends is to give them money. He’s got to keep getting this money,’" she recalled him saying.
Once again, the military & the paramilitaries are carrying out illegal orders to commit murder, on multiple fronts, including the home front:

This should end any presidency immediately. It can't be fixed by more laws or court orders, bc Trump/the admin don't follow those.
I served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Force Education and Training for three years before the office was disestablished last year. I owned the policy on professional military education for all five services. I have listened to Secretary Hegseth's announcement. I have thoughts. 🧵

Unnamed Israeli officials: I don't understand, why aren't the people we've bombed overthrowing their government for us
Mark my words--- Polymarket and other predictive market schemes have the potential to become a serious threat to press freedom/journalists.
The market is an idiot
i am pretty afraid for the iranian civilian population, tbh. bc this is a guy who is going to take out his impotent rage on soft targets
I'm telling you, boring old lawyers are now going to ABA panels to applaud hostile retorts to MAGA panelists and yell "you're a clown" at them.
A whole lot of people who merely furrowed their brows at Trump I are now seething with rage, and the Dem consultant class needs to wake up to that.
The corruption of the Trump Administration remains so massive while also being so obvious that people just don’t know what to do. If Kushner was merely shaking someone down for $5,000 using his govt role, there’d be an outcry. But do it for $5,000,000,000 and mostly there’s 🤷♂️
