Roberts Court doing the judicial equivalent of “we can’t consider a Supreme Court nominee in January, it’s an election year” and “of course we’ll confirm a Supreme Court nominee in October of an election year when voting is already underway.” Deeply bad faith. Liars whose only principle is power.

In its first 6 days the war on Iran cost taxpayers over $11.3 BILLION. We're now 45 days in. That means over $84.7 BILLION of your hard-earned dollars may have been wasted on an illegal war. In the U.S. there's always money for war, but never money for human needs.

Thank you @lorenzofb.bsky.social for accurately reporting that the Social Security Administration is *still* under the control of DOGE. This information is needed for the story to make sense. techcrunch.com/2026/03/10/d...
A spokesperson for the Social Security Administration, which is still under control by DOGE, denied that a former employee stole data on U.S. citizens. The spokesperson said the Washington Post was “desperate for clicks and eager to publish fake news to scare seniors.” The inspector general’s office; which is independent from the Trump administration, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
