We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.

You don’t get to thank veterans for their service and then gut the VA.
Donald Trump’s reckless DOGE cuts have eliminated tens of thousands of VA jobs where about a third of those workers are veterans themselves.

JD Vance blatantly lied about being on a pro-peace ticket while saying Kamala Harris would start WWIII and war with Iran.
It was the most dishonest campaign in the history of modern politics.
The US military was likely responsible for the strike on an elementary school in southern Iran that killed scores of children, the deadliest incident of civilian casualties in the US and Israel’s almost week-long war with Iran, according to CNN and expert analysis of evidence. https://cnn.it/4rjSsbc
Stop it okay.
The only EV chargers I see out by me are in Hyde Park or at a hospital.
Real talk.
How are we supposed to buy electric cars?
And of course gas costs more out south than the north side where they have chargers and buses galore.
Guess what race of ppl lives where.
Hacking internet-connected civilian security cameras for recon has become a standard operating procedure of modern warfare. First for Russia and Ukraine, now for Israel and Iran.
Your insecure internet-of-things surveillance system is now their targeting system.

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.
15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.
1/ I've watched administrations handle various wars and military operations, and I can say without question I've never seen an administration show such casual disregard for the danger U.S. troops are facing or the death of U.S. troops. All things Trump are disturbing, but this particularly so.
They no doubt have a long vetted target list and many times the drones necessary to hit everything on it.
There have been some very bad developments today.
He wasn't exonerated; he was implicated.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.

Donald Trump lies and has been publicly lying for 50 years
Blumenthal: "I have emerged from classified briefings deeply concerned and very fearful that we're on the precipice not only of an escalating conflict that in region, but also putting troops on the ground b/c that is almost inevitably the path the admin has chosen by its current tactical approach"
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:
Republicans just voted to give up one of Congress’ most basic duties: to check the President on war. Today’s failed War Powers vote was not leadership. It was surrender. The GOP majority bent the knee to Trump and put our Constitution, and our troops, at risk.
They’ve prevailed to this point because of a seemingly endless supply of people willing to believe the girlfriend is going to visit this summer
Autocrats always find way to contribute to entice people to give up their morals.
That’s why it’s so important for all of us to be aware of when they’re trying to do, remain true to our morals, and find ways to respond accordingly.
Amazing
Over 120 people have been hospitalized due to measles in Utah alone. "It is, at this time a real threat in our state and something we can do to stop it," said Dr. Leisha Nolen, state epidemiologist… pleading for people to get themselves and their children vaccinated.” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social
"Wow. A big drop" -- CNBC highlights that labor force participation is now the lowest it has been since in late 2021, before the covid vaccine was widely available
People often assume survivors are exaggerating.
In my experience, the opposite is usually true. Survivors soften the edges of what happened. They leave things out. They make it smaller just to be able to say it.
Listen carefully to survivors. The truth is often already in their words.
Kristi Noem has used $200M+ in taxpayer funds to pay firms with close ties to her top aides to make anti-immigrant PSAs.
Her luxury jets will cost taxpayers nearly $300M.
Trump's lackeys rail against "government waste," but are happy to pilfer taxpayer funds for themselves.
Anthropic should send a thank you note to Hegseth and Trump for trying and failing to demonize the company. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...
Excellent NYT video analysis finds that the bombing of scores of schoolchildren in Iran came amid other US strikes in the vicinity:

many domestic US bases have schools and day care centers within their perimeter
Iranians are not subhuman, this is indefensible and “we are investigating“ is unacceptable as a dodge
Official statements placing U.S. forces in the area – along w/ analysis of social posts, videos, sat. images – suggest U.S. forces bombed a school in Minab, Iran during strikes targeting an IRGC base. Over 150 were killed, Iranian officials say. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/w...
