Exactly. The DHS invasion of Minnesota and the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti had no impact on national gas prices or grocery bills. But people care about it, a lot, and the reaction against that invasion has had a major political impact.
Wondering if the media would've chosen "honored" as the verb if Obama had saluted fallen soldiers in a fucking baseball cap

Yes when I say he follows this philosophy sometimes people think I'm speculating or drawing a loose connection, but no, this was the literal philsophy that Trump was brought up believing. Peale officiated his wedding to Ivana! bsky.app/profile/pale...
Iran claims that the US has attacked a desalination plant on Qeshm Island. If this is true, it sets a terrifying precedent. As I wrote in @theconversation.com yesterday, the Gulf's water infrastructure is its greatest vulnerability. If true, this is a war crime.

One of my favorite books that you might get a kick out of is The Book Nobody Read by Owen Gingerich.
A historian of science, he tracks down all the first and second editions of Copernicus’s Revolutions and looks at who read them to explore how the ideas traveled.
So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right
A big part of the reason Europe isn’t offering stronger opposition is that US retaliation would include the oligarchs cutting access to these services punitively as they did with ICC judges.
So, yeah, they’re a part of this.
the dumbest form of politics is yelling at voters after you lose. if you lose it is *always* your fault. every confounding factor in the universe is your job to overcome. if you take a position that is unpopular and don't adjust to learning that, you are bad at running for office.
I am glad #waleg seems likely to pass the high earners income tax. That said, pretty much all tax legislation in Washington is kicking the can down the road unless we repeal the 1% property tax revenue growth cap. Until that happens, we’ll always be 5-10years away from the next fiscal crisis.
The challenges to longstanding incumbents will continue until legislation and leadership improves, I expect.
who is going to be the last soldier or civilian who dies because Donald Trump and Republicans are covering up Trump's history as a predator? www.npr.org/2026/03/06/n...
Sunny is free. We are so glad that she is with family and on the way home. Sunny and her 5 coworkers were taken to Broadview and then moved to Juneau, Wisconsin where they were finally released from ICE custody. We were lied to the entire time about her location. DHS needs to answer for this.
I think Hegseth should be worried.
tapping the "people underestimate how many of our society's elites are motivated not by self-interest, but by sadism" sign
Investors still think its going to be a short war.
This is perfectly put on the consensus view. That Trump will TACO because of oil prices shooting up and not wanting to lose midterms.
This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.
Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.
I mean, the four times thing is almost impossible to ignore. Imagine what Trump would do to an opponent he was trying to destroy with that fact.
We obviously need Trump to be removed from power. Short of that we need the world to know that the majority of American citizens, and their representatives in the opposition party, can see that this is madness and are trying to stop it. www.offmessage.net/p/no-quarter
It is repulsive to me -- morally, aesthetically, politically -- on a scale that I genuinely don't know how to describe. It's just so deeply, deeply gross, to be so filled with weakness that you abuse other, weaker people to feel better. What a horrible kind of human, to do that, to *allow* that.
this is, almost literally, a panel from next week's cartoon, written before I read this.
Rather than expand child care, one of *the* biggest expenses for a family in WA, the Democratic majority in #waleg is slashing it.
In other news, an unprecedented number of serious challenges to incumbent Democratic legislators is expected for the 2026 election...
British Columbia is switching their clocks for the last time this Sunday.
There's a lot going on in the world right now, but there is NO reason to not make daylight saving time permanent.
Congress should pass my bill to finally lock the clock.
the biggest coverup of the biggest scandal in Presidential history
1) lol dying
2) how was Molly posting about this a month ago and everybody in crypto just figured it out in the last 24 hours
good. big ass truck abundance is climate arson.
The US State Department is evacuating its employees and their families from the UAE and is telling people who were waiting for their passports they can pick them up from the Canadian Embassy.
What an amazing time to be alive.
there are like 50 people in the country who want the UK to get involved in the Iran War, one of them is Kemi Badenoch, one of them is Nigel Farage, and the other 48 are newspaper columnists
