This is a big win. Kristi Noem was a disaster, and people speaking up got her fired.

But Kristi Noem is not the architect of Trump's dangerous mass deportation policies, and we can't let up the pressure.

Fire Stephen Miller.

Trump Follows His Gut. His National Security Advisers Try to Keep Up.

Important and terrifying NYT article. But the word choices especially in the headline are so craven. He doesn’t β€œgo with his gut”! He operates by whim, and his staff scrambles urgently to enable him. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/u...

Live Updates: Mideast Conflict Widens as U.S. Officials Say Iran Operation Is in Early Stages

NYT afraid to state facts in its institutional voice, lamely ascribes them to β€œcritics”: β€œCritics say the Trump administration has no clear endgame and casualties are already mounting…” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

To be fair it also seems like Trump is gleefully taking every reporter's phone call and saying whatever random shit pops into his head so either way it's probably meaningless

Trump Says War Could Last Weeks and Offers Contradictory Visions of New Regime

I hope everyone reads this NYT interview with Trump and realizes that he is...

A) f***ing clueless

B) f***ing delusional

and that...

C) American troops are going to needlessly die because he is f***ing clueless and delusional.

GIFT ARTICLE to read/share.

Sen. Ossoff Statement on Iran
Atlanta, Ga. - U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff today released the following statement.
"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 β€” which he falsely claimed to have 'obliterated' β€” 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."

Ossoff’s statement is 1000x stronger than Schumer-Jeffries. This is a moderate Jewish Senator from a Trump state. The split isn’t moderate vs progressive, but leading vs poll-reacting

WSJ confirms the U.S. is involved in the attack on Iran: β€œThe U.S. participated in the attack and was also carrying out strikes, a U.S. official said.”

Like Dick Cheney's VP search, JD Vance's fraud search will end with him concluding he's the fraud they've been looking for all along.

Trump pointed at the Dem side and yelled, β€œTHESE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY!”

Dems should have gotten up and walked out at that point.

It was incredibly ugly.

Tried to respond to this thing by goofing on our ridiculous president, but that’s impossible. He’s just too cruel and evil and the way he’s exploiting the tragedies suffered by individual Americans is just disgusting.

He’s claiming theres no tax on Social Security again--because of his big ,bad bill--which is absolutely false.

I hope that the people who wrote the "this is Trump's chance to change directions!" pieces have also written their "look at the new tone he took!" followup for tonight and the inevitable "well, looks like I fell for it again" piece for tomorrow morning
