If you watch this, you have to wonder what the fuck Russia has on these people. But seriously, it's far worse than a pee tape.

Iran retaliated with missile and drone bombardments against U.S. bases and allied territory, targeting military facilities across the Gulf, including Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. One Iranian drone killed six American service members at a U.S. command center in Kuwait. Asked whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump acknowledges the possibility. βI guess,β he says. βBut I think theyβre worried about that all the time. We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die."
Donald Trumpβs White House is blocking top US intelligence agencies from warning law enforcement across the country about rising threats to the homeland tied to his war with Iran, the Daily Mail can reveal. The FBI, Homeland Security, and the National Counterterrorism Center were preparing to put out a joint intelligence statement on Friday to state and local authorities alerting them of a heightened threat due to the ongoing war in Iran, a senior DHS official said. The bulletin, which was reviewed by the Daily Mail, details 'elevated threats by the government of Iran to US military and government personnel and facilities, Jewish and Israeli institutions and their perceived supporters, and Iranian dissidents and other anti-regime activists in the United States.' 'Radicalized individuals with a variety of ideological backgrounds also may see this conflict or other geopolitical events as a justification for violence,' the report continues. The five-page bulletin blocked by the White House provides specific details on how Iranian proxies may carry out attacks across the country. One section explains how local law enforcement can respond to this type of violence. The official title is 'A Public Safety Awareness Report: Elevated threat in the United States during US-Iran conflict'. Homeland Security broke protocol and gave the White House a heads-up about the nationwide bulletin hours before it was set to be released. Top Trump officials ordered it placed on βholdβ. The White House did not deny blocking the terror bulletin in a statement to the Daily Mail.
Time: Asked if Americans should be worried abt attacks at home: I guess.
Daily Mail: The White House blocked release of FBI/NCTC warning of elevated risks.

Listen. It could have happened to anyone.
A modest proposal (for a thing to yell at Republicans)
Kissinger nods in hell
Got his ass, finally
There are 92 million Iranians
CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.
By 2034, Medicaid will have 7.6M fewer enrollees

Bar graph showing responses to question "Would you support or oppose abolishing ICE?" from The Economist/You Gov from June 2025 and late Feb-early March 2026. Total support for abolishing rose 23 points, among Dems 30 points, among independents 23 points, among Republicans 14 points.
Public opinion is not fixed.
And it's the job of a campaign to move people.
If Timothee Chalamet wants to make being a reverse-snob part of his deal, whatever. Be a child, you know?
But at a time when arts funding and support are so imperiled, it would be nice not to lead with your contempt for wide swaths of the arts during your campaign to have your own art recognized.
The people of Ukraine deserve so much better than this international shitshow performed by russian puppets.
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.
βI donβt know if he wants a complete regime change, but he does want an America which is much more religious, much more closed. Itβs not just isolationism in the Pat Buchanan sense; itβs a superreligious project.β
Yes β as @POTUS has said β we are bombing Narco Terrorists on land as well. Thank you to our partners in Ecuador. Much more to come from @Southcom β¦

Really not clear what is happening here.
Who is the βweβ SecDef refers to?
Is this merely bombastic PR for U.S. support to Ecuadorian operations?
Or U.S. direct action?
Graph of award probability of R35 and R01 from NIH factbook as a function of review rank percentile. As is apparent, 2025 is a significant departure, with lower award probabilities at all scores <40 and significant departures from norm, where even being in the top 10% is no longer a nearly certain indicator of success. Data source: https://report.nih.gov/nihdatabook/report/302
The data is in: the NIH goalposts have shifted.
What were once almost certain fundable scores have become coin flips and what used to be likely grants have become aspirational, leading to fewer awards.
Another manifestation of how HHS policies have led to fewer awards and less science.
π€To estimate how long it might take Iran to "surrender unconditionally," maybe we can use Afghanistan as a proxy?
Afghanistan's army was 100K people. Iran's is 600K. So maybe we should look at how long it took to get Afghanistan to surrender unconditionally, and then multiply that by 6?
The New Yorker Kristi Noem will be remembered as the most incompetent Secretary in the 23-year history of the D.H.S. now
I donβt think the incompetence actually is going to be what Kristi Noem is remembered for.
It will be the killings, the lawlessness, and the grift, if I had to guess.
A collaboration of the LAPD and the LAUSD, Drug Abuse Resistance Education spread across the country like the drug war, from the top down. Reagan declared a National DARE Day with the enthusiasm of a rich white man whoβd found his Gary Coleman. Then, after years of implementation, the data came in.
Trump has fucked up in a way that may even soon dwarf his doomed attempt to please Xi by wishing Covid away in early 2020.
Employees at Camp East Montana are being told that the massive detention Center in El Paso is not closing, internal messages obtained by the El Paso Times show.

"Instead of respecting my inalienable right to be debated, they justβ¦ blocked me. Like Iβm some kind of annoyance, rather than the iconoclastic and fascinating truth-teller which I know myself to be."
Oh yes! Let's talk about this!
"A reasonable conclusion is that most screenplays submitted to the Black List website are competent but not exceptional, and those that are exceptional are quite rare (which roughly mirrors what most of us know instinctively if weβve read a lot of screenplays)."
I read this as POTUS wanting to apply the VZ model to Iran, complete with the spectacular SOF raid.
What could go wrong?

I knew Trump would take Russia side. Silly of me to not anticipate that heβd take Russiaβs side to fund a war against the United States.
Im working in a documentary about the assasination of my college classmate Marielle Franco, who was a socialist Rio city councilwoman.
Americans need to hear this inspiring story of how Brazilians fought back & put the bad guys in jail.

The sooner he does this, the better chance it works. I'd recommend tonight.
