After slashing SNAP & Medicaid, Trump is using his Iran War to line the pockets of military contractors.
I'm reminded of the words of MLK:
"A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom."
The Gámez-Cuéllar family has been released from Dilley! We just picked them up.
James Talarico in first interview since his primary victory:
My faith teaches me to love my neighbor as myself.
Texas has a deep hunger for a different kind of politics rooted in love. The old politics of total war is dying, and we are building a movement to take on this broken system.
"We were promised no foreign wars and cheaper commodities, cheaper groceries, cheaper energy, and none of that is going to happen." - @radiofreetom.bsky.social

I swear that’s not (just) snobby snark. Most folks who think and talk about politics professionally quite literally cannot enter the headspace of the median voter. Trump being an idiot is sort of his superpower.
March 8, 2026 - Tehran at sunrise today. But the sun is hidden behind a sky filled with smoke. After a night of intensive strikes on oil facilities, thick black clouds now hang over the city, turning morning into something that feels like night.

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!

Today? Two incomes barely cover rent in most cities.
lol
I washed dishes for years. I’m the only person in this race who’s been in a union. I’ll fight for workers like our nurses every single day and work to earn their support in this campaign. They take care of us — we need to do the same.
