This is WWE shit (no shade, fans) and those dreads should make that asshole easy to ID.

The body slam seems to be the ICE preferred initial interaction.

BREAKING: Protesters are posted up outside the Milwaukee federal courthouse to back Judge Hannah Dugan, who’s facing arraignment. They’re not quiet. They’re not passive. They’re saying loud and clear: the system is on trial today, not her.

36 people are reported dead in the last 24 hours across seven states due to extreme storms. States of emergency have been declared in Arkansas, Georgia and Oklahoma, where more than 100 wildfires have been raging. Trump would like you to know this.

If you attack the Capitol to overturn election results and to overthrow democracy on behalf of a criminal, you’re a hero. If you attack a Tesla dealership, we’ll throw away the key.

New in PN: @kevinmkruse.bsky.social on why Trump 2.0 is worse than he expected "There’s a lot that’s deeply unconstitutional here ... Trump and Musk correctly assessed that Republicans would simply submit and give up prerogatives that Congress has jealously guarded."

Raskin: "Really, if we were censuring anyone, it should've been Donald Trump, who I don't think had been back to our chamber since he incited a violence insurrection against us. And then he used his pulpit in order to call a sitting member of the Senate 'Pocahontas.'"

Coming up for air on a weekend of non-stop reporting on Social Security. Here’s what’s coming: Following a typical pattern, Trump and DOGE are breaking Social Security so they can say “Look, it’s all broken. Only we can fix it and the only way to fix it is to replace it.”

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

WOW. After yesterday’s Oval Office ambush of President Zelensky, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway’s leading marine fuel providers, announced that it will no longer refuel U.S. Navy vessels, urging other European firms to follow suit. The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.

There are just 17 days until the federal government runs out of spending authority on March 14th. Congress is nowhere close to a deal that would avert a shutdown. House GOP leaders can only lose one Republican vote if all members show up and vote, and it appears they’ve already lost at least one.

MUST WATCH: Trump caught LYING to the world—again. He claimed Europe was just “loaning” money to Ukraine, only for Macron to shut him down in real time: “No, to be frank, we paid. 60% of the total effort.” Embarrassing. Just making things up in the Oval Office.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Get Ready For Delayed Tax Refunds, Long Hold Times After Mass IRS Firings But wealthy tax evaders will enjoy “a feast” as the strained federal agency lacks the resources to hold them accountable, said one tax policy expert.

Where did Trump get the 4% number from? That’s what Putin told him in their recent phone call. The American president takes lies about our allies directly from Putin and asserts they are true to the American people without telling them he got those lies from Putin.

Wyden: "Nobody should lose sight of what happened this morning. Trump endorsed the House budget resolution. This resolution mandates that $880b in cuts come from the House Energy & Commerce Committee ... there is no plausible way to hit that target without hundreds of billions in cuts to Medicaid."

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

basira.bsky.social reposted

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"
