Putin is literally helping Iran target US troops. At this point Republicans, if you don’t stand up to Trump, you’re just goddamn traitors!
Donald Trump on....
* gas prices
"If they rise, they rise."
* U.S. troops
"Some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die."
Snuck into Peggy Noonan's WSJ op-ed: "There's Reaons to Worry About the Iran War" on Hegseth
She also adds:
"If I were in Congress, would I vote right now to support the administration’s action in Iran? I think not, due to the severity of some of the possible repercussions outlined above."
Incredible! Russia is giving Iran intelligence to target Americans, Ukraine is helping us learn how to counter drones. And yet Trump is beholden to Putin! And Republicans do nothing!

Trump has been whining and threatening Powell about lowering interest rates for the past 14 months. TRUMP’S WAR has caused the 10 year Treasury yield to reach its highest level since Feb 2025! HE caused this!
The AAA national average price for a gallon of unleaded gas has jumped another 7 cents overnight to $3.32. The price per gallon has now gone up by $0.34 or 11.4% since Trump started his war.
Just remember, come November, Trump started this war with no clear goals, objectives, or exit plan. House and Senate Republicans green lit him continuing, with no checks from Congress. They own this now!
Just awful job numbers for February. US lost 92,000 jobs, expectation had been a gain of 50,000 jobs. Trump is killing our economy and his war is going to make it that much worse!
Says someone who when it was his time to go to war, dodged the draft. 5 times.
Tim Walz: “Noem should probably get used to spending more time in Minnesota.”
(And he doesn’t mean visiting. He means find a lawyer. Lesson to ALL of this regime!)
NBC: two firms handpicked by Noem, People Who Think and Safe America Media, were not only given a $220 million contact for her videos, but also a $100 million no bid contract to recruit 10k ICE officers, even though there were less expensive option.

A Times analysis suggests it was a US strike, one with precision, that hit the school in Iran.

Simply heartbreaking 💔💔

***risk (not week)
Anthropic is the first U.S. company to be designated a supply chain week (yes, unprecedented), and Hegseth did it while the Pentagon is literally using Anthropic's AI in Trump's Iran war.
There's a way to celebrate the firing of an awful person, without using sexist language to describe her. Go that way please.
NEW: TRUMP FIRES NOEM.
Not for her cruelty and incompetence mind you. She said he had approved her $200 million self promo budget. That, he didn’t like.
Great timing too in the middle of a war.
Trump amd Vance and Rubio burned our bridges with Europe. Now we need them, and rhey are saying no thank you!

The rats are leaving the sinking ship.
“In a striking rebuke, the House Oversight Committee just voted to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi to testify about the Justice Department’s handling of its case against Jeffrey Epstein and its release of its files. The vote, 24 to 19 with five Republicans joining all Democrats.”
Week 69 is the longest list so far. With the storylines that were developing, almost all bad for Trump, it was easy to see why he might want to divert attention elsewhere. Catch up on all the stories you need to know about!

This matters because appropriations bills require a 75-percent supermajority vote from both chambers in Arkansas. The balance of power just shifted from 80-19 to 79-20. 👏👏
CIA working to arm Kurdish forces to spark uprising in Iran. I feel like I’ve seen this movie before. What is Trump getting us into 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ www.cnn.com/2026/03/03/p...
This is ethics! An OpenAI employee resigns and will join Anthropic. Thank you. 🙏🏽
NEW: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to testify in the House Oversight Committee's Jeffrey Epstein probe. 👏👏
For the first time, more than half the country “strongly” disapprove of Trump.
Democracy won and Trump lost! Celebrate the victories!
