Michael Flynn confessed. Trump pardoned. Now Flynn will receive $1.2 million from the Trump administration. Trump’s DOJ calls it a settlement, but it’s not. It’s a gift of grift. A political payoff ripped from the wallets of taxpayers. convulsions.substack.com/p/trump-injust…

@Acyn Trump is a convicted felon.

McClain: Republicans stand with law enforcement. We don’t stand with the criminals.

@SenTuberville Why is this the government's business?

March Madness is in full swing, and Americans are once again coming together to cheer on their favorite college teams. But we have GOT to do something about the transfer portal because it’s out of control. Last year, nearly 4,000 men’s and women’s basketball players entered the portal. Transferring every year interrupts a student’s education and is bad for team morale. That’s why I’m introducing a bill that would allow student-athletes to transfer 1 time without penalty, no questions asked. After that if you choose to transfer, you sit out a year. It’s simple. outkick.com/sports/tommy-t…

Join me in wishing a very happy birthday to Carol Kaye. She's best known for her work in Motown, pop and rock, but she was born into a musical family and began her carreer at an early age playing with big bands and at bebop jazz clubs. #planetelegance #roncarter #jazz

Russiagate was a phony scandal* *if you ignore Trump’s inner circle secretly meeting with a Russian lawyer promising dirt on Clinton, Trump’s campaign chairman sharing internal data with a Russian spy, another Russian spy infiltrating the NRA, a now indicted Russian government asset providing campaign advice, Trump secretly trying to build a Trump Tower Moscow, a Trump aide flying to Moscow and secretly meeting with a senior Russian oil/gas executive and government officials, multiple businessmen in Russia claiming the Kremlin had sexual dirt on Trump, a European professor with Kremlin ties telling a Trump aide Russia had emails on Clinton before their release, an Israeli social media manipulation expert who was working for the same oligarch to which Trump’s campaign chairman owned millions, pitching Trump Jr and Erik Prince on a plan to influence social media and

Traders made bets worth half a billion dollars in the oil market about 15 minutes before Donald Trump’s post touting “productive” talks with Iran sent the price of crude tumbling and ignited volatility in other assets. ft.com/content/1171d6…

BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market. In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold. These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time. The trader seemingly made huge gains. Unusual.

Why are ICE agents coming to airports? Because GOP blocked 6 different bills that would have opened TSA. They won’t fund TSA unless we give ICE unlimited funds and impunity. This is the GOP’s mess.

I’m trying to figure out how Mueller simultaneously led a conspiracy to ruin Trump and also “totally exonerated” him.

Me: this edible ain’t shit Me, 15 minutes later:

@ThrillaRilla369 You slipped it to the dog under the table.

Be honest because I’m proving a point When you were a child if you didn’t want to eat what your mother made for dinner What happened?

@clevemetroparks can we have some idea of when Euclid Creek Park will be open again? A day? A week? A month? 3 months? A year?

@SenFettermanPA resign in disgrace.

@JohnFetterman resign in disgrace.

NEW: President Trump makes four false claims in a 43-word post about Tina Peters. Peters is 70 (not 73), does not have cancer, was sentenced by a judge in Mesa County (not the Governor), and did not expose fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

So corrupt.

Let me get this straight. The federal government held a legal auction for the right to build offshore wind farms. A company won those auctions fair and square, paying nearly a billion dollars into the U.S. Treasury. The projects went through years of review. Courts repeatedly upheld their legality. Everything was above board. Then the Trump administration tried five separate times to kill other wind projects in federal court and lost every single time. Judges reviewed the administration’s supposed “national security” justification and weren’t persuaded.  So now they’ve landed on a new plan: pay the company nearly ONE BILLION DOLLARS of your tax money to just walk away. Because, and I am not making this up, the president thinks offshore wind turbines are ugly and claims without evidence that they “drive whales crazy.”  He’s been nursing this petty grudge since 2012, when he tried to block a wind farm visible from his golf course in Scotland. Fourteen years later, American taxpayers are footing the bill for it. This is stupid policy. It’s fiscally reckless, strategically blind, and driven entirely by a personal vendetta rather than any coherent vision for American energy or competitiveness. Meanwhile, China is racing ahead, building offshore wind at a staggering pace and positioning itself to dominate the global clean energy economy for decades to come. None of this is America First. nytimes.com/2026/03/17/cli…

Angus King: Twice in the last two weeks, Senator Patty Murray put a bill on the floor that would have fully funded TSA, FEMA, CISA, and the Coast Guard for the rest of the year. Inexplicably to me, that bill was blocked by my Republican colleagues.
