I just sent $20 to Ian to help this family. I'd like you to chip in a few bucks if you can too.

And not just by US agencies. Foreign intelligence is also monitoring and scraping.

Damn

The Department of Defense is buying up our data and seeking to use powerful AI systems to amass information about our private lives without a warrant.

That's the definition of Big Brother surveillance, and it’s unconstitutional.

Today should be your 38th birthday.. When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

Federal judges who've ruled against Trump administration denounce threats against themselves, their families Federal judges say criticism from President Trump can put their safety at risk. The White House says the president "understands the dangers of political violence."

"Most [judges] would not appear on camera, fearful for their safety. Judge Coughenour [Reagan appt'ee] is one of few who would. He blocked Trump's bid to end birthright citizenship.

Coughenour: My wife & I are at home. And the doorbell rings...& there's, I think, 5 sheriffs there w/long rifles..."

Seems like a thing more people should be mad about

Feds asked New Mexico to halt Jeffrey Epstein Zorro Ranch sex trafficking probe, records show Former AG says feds halted New Mexico’s Epstein inquiry without sharing promised evidence as state reopens Zorro Ranch investigation.

Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.

Racism defines US domestic policy. It’s literally why we can’t have nice things.

When things make no sense from the drug war, education funding, Trump getting elected twice, or no universal healthcare they trace back to racism. People would rather be kings in hell than risk being servants in heaven

How fast could the Iran strikes hit your local gas prices?
Oil markets resume Monday.
By late afternoon, wholesale (rack) prices adjust.
Stations buying after ~6pm local may pay what markets assess.
Some pumps could start moving Monday night, others within 24–48 hours.

Love that his office spelled it that way 3 separate times in the press release

“Eight months ago, Donald Trump lied to the country when he claimed U.S. air strikes had ‘obliterated’ Iran’s nuclear program. “Now Trump says he’s taken America to war for regime change in Iran. “Trump has launched this regime change war and put American forces at risk without presenting evidence of an imminent threat, without clear objectives, without having exhausted diplomacy, without a plan for the aftermath, and without the consent of Congress. “I oppose yet another regime change war-of-choice in the Middle East. Congress must convene immediately and pass a War Powers Resolution to assert our Constitutional authority over war and peace. “The President has presented no evidence that Iran or its nuclear program — which he falsely claimed to have ‘obliterated’ — pose an imminent threat to the United States, or that diplomacy was exhausted. Iran’s support for terrorism and uranium enrichment have long destabilized the region. But sending American forces into harm’s way should only ever be a last resort. “I pray for the safety of U.S. forces who have been ordered into battle and commend their extraordinary professionalism.”

“Israel has officially closed all crossings with Gaza, including the Rafah crossing.😭😭😭 Prices have risen insanely, and some traders have hoarded food supplies and hidden them from people to make profit at the expense of their suffering."

A message today from my dear friend Tasneem in Gaza. Unsurprisingly, Israel is clamping down on Gaza in the wake of the attack on Iran, making life worse for the displaced civilians.

Please donate to Tasneem and/or repost. No amount is too small. And give to others. 🙏

Trump & Co have been talking about US military action for weeks, if not months, and positioning the assets to do it - long before such intelligence ever could have become a factor. This is transparent nonsense.

Henry Cuellar U.S. Representative ("D") TX-28 Primary Date: March 3rd WARNING: PRO-ICE • Voted to let ICE strip-search children. • Voted for DHS funding. • Voted to thank ICE during LA Occupation.

50501 Ricardo Villarreal Running for TX-28 (D) Veteran & Physician Primary Date: March 3rd Not Pro-ICE • Protested Dilley detention center. • Opposed DHS funding vote. • Running against pro-ICE Trump collaborator.

To abolish ICE, we must abolish pro-ICE “Dem” collaborators.

Pro-ICE incumbent Henry Cuellar is running in the TX-28 Democratic primary against Physician & Veteran Ricardo Villarreal on March 3rd, 2026.

Don’t forget to vote!

Elite Doctors Served Jeffrey Epstein While Treating His ‘Girls’

NEW: I and colleagues reviewed 15,000 documents to illuminate how Jeffrey Epstein used VIP doctors to control and manipulate young women* — and how the doctors helped him, treating his needs as more important than the patients'. Gift link.

A courageous and righteous statement from the first Iranian-American Democratic Congresswoman.

The most evil people on the planet trying to buy yet another election.

U.S. cybersecurity experts say Americans should be prepared for cyberattacks launched by Iran or its allies following U.S. strikes. Iran has in the past targeted critical infrastructure in the U.S. like ports, water plants or hospitals, and it’s likely that groups supporting Tehran may look to strike back against U.S. interests. “We should be vigilant,” James Winebrenner, CEO of the cybersecurity firm Elisity, told the AP in an email. He said to “expect heightened retaliatory activity in the coming days and weeks.”

I honestly thought this was a quote tweet, and not a coincidence.

“.. risk insurers on Saturday submitted cancellation notices for policies covering ships moving through the key oil chokepoint, brokers told the FT, with prices set to rise as much as 50 per cent in the coming days.”
