Elon Musk said that even if every billionaire was taxed at 100% it wouldn't make a significant dent in the national deficit. That everyone has to pay taxes. I don't believe the normal citizens in this country are complaining about paying taxes. It's the top 1% who complain.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
“A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

I don't think we went to war to cause a distraction, but I sure do believe that they are taking FULL advantage of the fact that war is distracting
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

My then-hair dresser told me she thought Trump was smart and honest because he had a lot of likes on twitter
THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!
we can just stop doing bad things. we don't have to do bad things.
me wondering why the internet is turning other people's brains into mush
Helluva way for the president to refer to dead soldiers — soldiers killed in a war he started.

Do younger people know about the huge effort that was put into decreasing the % of smokers. Education campaigns in print, on TV, in schools, new restrictions/enforcement, labeling, a soupçon of public shaming, changes in how smoking was depicted, etc. Might guide us in anti-anti-vax efforts.
I truly hate this monstrous woman and every person who voted for this! www.disabilityscoop.com/2026/03/02/s...
This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Democratic voters would disapprove of the war because they by and large aren't mindless drones who suddenly love war in the Middle East just because it's their daddy doing it and not the other one's. We have a good example of what happens when a Dem supports unpopular war in MENA actually.
If Obama were prosecuting this war against Iran, Democrats and the media would be cheering and half the right would be denouncing it. That’s the problem: in America today, everything gets filtered through partisan tribalism.
I think if Obama were prosecuting this war against Iran his approvals would be at 5%
Iran regime change advocates got what they spent decades pushing for—the US to launch a big war to collapse Iran’s government—and they’re still not happy.
Because what they pushed for years was a fantasy of a smooth, easy regime change war that gets everyone to tell them they were right all along.
A Distric Court judge has ruled that Kari Lake was not legally in charge of the US Agency for Global Media, and that actions she took while claiming to be in that role are also not legal, including her attempts to fire people
The burning oil refinery in Tehran tonight.
This ancient city of 10 million people is being annihilated by the US and Israel.

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

To clarify this: the context is college sports. Trump is saying that Russia helping Iran target Americans in a war is less important than the pay structure for athletes.

I think it's great that the president put on his most solemnly branded baseball cap to receive the returning coffins of soldiers killed in the unnecessary war he launched to distract from his failing presidency and pedophilia scandal.
Look at that gold-like letting. Classy as shit.
This is the result of a deliberate, planned, richly funded 60+ year effort. This is what they set out to do. And they did it.
I can explain it right now tbh, they don't consider the rest of us human much less American. It's not national suicide, it is a family annihilation perpetuated by people who lied and grifted and stole they way into power and are using it to consolidate resources ahead of the climate catastrophe
A year long investigation into the Hyperloop found …
“The truth was far simpler, far dumber, and far more prescient: Musk and his lieutenants truly had no idea what they were doing.”

I would argue they knew exactly what they were doing, which was deliberately sabotaging needed public works programs by offering snake oil they never had any intention of delivering.
The Atlantic just ran an article on how Iran would be committing war crimes if they did this to its neighbors. 😐
War on water.
