You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

It’s been a while since I fired up some Blue Murder, but you’ve inspired me to rectify that tonight.

In what world is it okay for the Defense Secretary to make multi-million dollar investments in defense companies:
a) Ever;
b) In the run-up to starting a war in the Middle East

FT has the scoop: www.ft.com/content/744e...

In a functional democracy, he would offer his resignation tonight.

Four-byline alert: 🚨

“.. A broker for Pete Hegseth, the US defence secretary, attempted to make a big investment in major defence companies in the weeks leading up to the US-Israeli attack on Iran, according to three people familiar with the matter.”

A graph summarizes one of the major points made by Neue Zürcher Zeitung's discussion of the collapse under Trump of the US dollar as a reserve currency. This will have adverse consequences for the US economy for decades, but major US media are seemingly oblivious to what is happening.

starting to get the sense that there is going to be a significant effort by the United States Government to conceal the extent of losses we're taking in the Iran War

Like, WTF else are they not telling us?

We only found out about this because an airman posted these to a FB group. They are in deep shit for it, but it doesn't negate the fact that something like this happened.

NGL, I'm legit concerned for those other planes that have been labelled "damaged."

The $580 million short oil bet was the smaller of the two insider trades. The larger one, placed at the exact same time (6:49-6:50am), was between $1.4-$1.9 billion to go long S&P 500 e-Mini futures.

By the way, the S&P 500 e-Mini trades through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, and accordingly @jbpritzker.bsky.social and @kwameraoul.bsky.social might want to investigate the anomalous lucrative trading of that security from 6:49-6:50am on Monday, March 23, 2026.

Just a thought.

Simple information about what the SAVE Act would actually do to American voters. Tens of millions would lose their right to vote unless they spend lots of $$$ and jump through bureaucratic hoops before November.

DOGE employee, who, in his twenties, made decisions to cut aid based solely on personal judgement, according to him.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

White House: the witness’s allegations are “completely baseless” and “backed by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

Correction. Orwell never said this. He did however, warn that: "political language... is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” (That's Politics and the English Language, one of my favorite essays)

Maybe Trump is the exit dose this whole fucked-up system needed? It’s like chemotherapy — the poison ALMOST kills the system but out of that chaos comes the death of the cancer? If this tears apart MAGA *and* neoliberalism then go man go.
