Iran deal you say?

Record deaths in US immigration custody expose systemic failures Families, advocates and lawmakers say poor care, opaque investigations and bureaucracy leave deaths unexplained

I think it's time we call them by their rightful name:
Concentration camps.

Powell: "The thing a good number of people on the committee are concerned about is very very low level of job creation. If you adjust the trend job creation over the past 6 months for what we think is overstatement due to overcounting, effectively there is 0 net job creation in the private sector"

Ossoff: "The American people need to know that the president is fundraising for his political campaign and his PAC using images of American service members killed in action, and it's a disgrace"

Clever. These are popping up all across the USA.

America first is letting foreign companies come into the US to mine copper?

Hassett: "If the war were to be extended, it wouldn't really disrupt the US economy very much at all. It would hurt consumers, and we'd have to think about what we'd have to do about that, but that's really the last of our concerns right now."

Afghan asylum-seeker dies after less than 24 hours in ICE custody Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal, 41, a father of six who worked with the U.S. military in Afghanistan, had no known health iss

After working with the U.S. military in Afghanistan, Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal died in the country he spent years of his life helping.

The cruelty is endless.

Jeffrey Epstein saying Donald Trump would begin bombing Iran if “cornered like a rat.” “You guys need to understand that he is psychotic,” Epstein warned.

I have nothing to add here. Yes, it’s that bad.

DHS wants to build a system to surveil Americans’ travel records Previously unreported documents show the agency has asked companies for input. Last year, a similar program was shuttered over public outcry.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the US Secret Service want to build a tool for tracking US travelers’ flights and other personal information according to previously unreported documents reviewed by Mother Jones.

Incredible that just 24 hours after this tweet, it's being reported that America is preparing to put boots on the ground in Iran.

The suspect in the Temple Israel attack in Michigan lost family members in Israeli strikes in Lebanon, according to the Islamic Institute of America in Dearborn, MI.

MS NOW's @marcsantianews.bsky.social has the latest.

Hegseth: "President Trump holds the cards. He'll determine the pace, tempo, timing of this conflict. His hand firmly on the wheel as well as on the throttle setting ... today will be yet again the highest volume of strikes America has put over the skies of Iran and Tehran. Ramping up and only up."

The Dangerous Cost of Fighting Iran Without a Strategy The United States can destroy targets in Iran — but without a strategy, destruction alone leads nowhere.

War has a way of exposing the difference between power and strategy. The United States has enormous power. What remains unclear right now is whether anyone running this war has a strategy.

Pete Hegseth Says ‘the Sooner David Ellison’ Buys CNN, ‘the Better’

Billionaire control of the media is a danger to us all. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/b...

We put an alcoholic rapist in charge of the military and he’s confessing to war crimes from the Pentagon podium.

When we restore democracy, we need to put the people who committed crimes in prison.

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

“The clear winner of this war is Putin”

Must be a coincidence 🙃

Rep. Nancy Mace on 13 US troops killed fighting Iran: "Well, America's sons and daughters have signed up to give the ultimate sacrifice"

Hegseth: "Some in the press can't stop. Allow me to make suggestions. People look at the TV and they see banners, 'Mideast War Intensifies.' What should it read instead? How about, 'Iran increasingly desperate.' More fake news from CNN. The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better"

What a world

She’s not an influencer. She’s a toddler/preschool educator who is incredibly popular from her You Tube videos.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp: "This technology disrupts humanity's train, largely Democratic voters, and makes their economic power less, and increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working class, often male voters. These disruptions are going to disrupt every aspect of our society."

LANDERS: Why did the FBI seize election records in AZ?

TRUMP: They probably thought the election was rigged

LANDERS: It wasn't though

TRUMP: Oh really? How do you know?

LANDERS: Your own AG said it

TRUMP: If you say it wasn't rigged, you're a rotten reporter

LANDERS: Where's the evidence?

I heard the audio. He said it.
Lord. What have y'all done.

This is not good.
