AlterNet Crooks and Liars Daily Kos (Note: these articles are from RSS News Feeds websites, and are deleted after 30 days, March 2, 2026 at 11:00 PM EST Spanish singer Rosal?a was awarded international artist of the year for her astonishing Lux . This genre-bending, multi-lingual opus spans pretty much the entire gamut of Western musical traditions to the present day. There were some questions about how she'd be able to pull this off live, as it combines a full orchestra, choral voices, her own opera-like singing, and the cameo from Björk, but they did so brilliantly. March 2, 2026 at 9:45 PM EST First Lady Melania Trump will become the first spouse of a world leader to chair a United Nations Security Council meeting despite her husband's ongoing attacks against Iran. The U.S. first lady was expected to "emphasize education's role in advancing tolerance and world peace," according to a statement from her office. March 2, 2026 at 6:01 PM EST President Donald Trump took time out of an update on his strikes on Iran to rant about his plans to build a ballroom at the White House. During a Monday event at the White House, Trump said that he had projected "four to five weeks" for the operation in Iran before speaking about his ballroom plans. March 2, 2026 at 5:48 PM EST Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth finally addressed the press earlier today, claiming during his press conference that it was Iran who started a war with the United States, and Trump is going to finish it. Just the thing for Fox viewers to lap up, right? Did anyone in America, including the Pentagon, know we were at war with Iran? Did Trump know we were already at war? If he did, he never mentioned it to anyone during his gazillion media appearances and his fascist-style cabinet meetings. Did Dear Leader forget to tell us that? March 2, 2026 at 5:44 PM EST Last week, New Jersey Assemblymembers Ravi Bhalla and Katie Brennan introduced four bills aimed at protecting immigrants and curtailing some of the terrorist acts committed by ICEtapo agents. One of the bills has gotten more attention than the others, not for what the bill proposes but for its name - "Fight Unlawful Conduct and Keep Individuals and Communities Empowered Act." The FUCK ICE Act - don't you just love it?! - allows people to file civil lawsuits for ICEtapo actions and be entitled to monetary damages, including punitive and psychological damages. March 2, 2026 at 5:44 PM EST ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl came away from an interview with President Donald Trump suggesting the U.S. leader was high on military power following the strikes in Iran. "He promised to keep the nation out of foreign wars, but at this point, no modern president has ordered more military strikes against more countries than Donald Trump," ABC News host George Stephanopoulos told Karl on Monday. March 2, 2026 at 1:42 PM EST Despite the ongoing military assault on Iran, President Donald Trump insisted the U.S. hasn't "started hitting them hard" yet, and said that "the big one is coming soon." Trump made the remarks Monday morning in an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper. March 2, 2026 at 9:43 AM EST Sen. Ted Cruz negated one of Trump's main reasons for attacking Iraq when he told CBS News Iran was nowhere "close to getting nuclear weapons because our bombing [in June] was devastating." In a taped video, Trump argued his attack against Iran was justified because "they attempted to rebuild their nuclear program and to continue developing long range missiles that can now threaten our very good friends and allies in Europe, our troops stationed overseas and could soon reach the American homeland." March 2, 2026 at 9:32 AM EST Former Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene took to the Bad App to tear into right-wing political activist Laura Loomer with a full-on takedown over her warmongering post. Donald J. Trump's illegal decision to unleash joint U.S.-Israeli strikes is already bringing in a death toll. Three American military personnel lost their lives , and five others suffered serious injuries during operations involving Iran, according to a statement from US Central Command released Sunday. Several additional service members sustained minor injuries and have been cleared to return to active duty, the command added. March 2, 2026 at 8:05 AM EST If Florida enacts House Bill 945, it will create a CIA-style structure at the state level that blurs the traditional line between state law enforcement and intelligence work. A state-level intelligence office empowered to scrutinize residents based on ideology is precisely the kind of proposal likely to spread once normalized. The bill would create an intelligence office charged with identifying and disrupting threats to Florida and the United States. That alone should raise questions. The federal government already spends enormous sums (trillions of dollars since 9/11) on national security and counterterrorism. Why would states duplicate those functions without demonstrating a clear need, specialized expertise, or meaningful oversight? March 2, 2026 at 8:04 AM EST Pentagon briefers have told congressional staff that Iran had no plans to preemptively strike U.S. forces or bases in the region. The bombshell admission yesterday came at a private briefing, and was confirmed by CNN reports, Politico, and the Associated Press. In other words, Yambo had no justification for the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on the country -- unless you count the Epstein files. March 2, 2026 at 8:03 AM EST Rep Drunken Van Orden went on News Nation to try to justify the illegal Trumpstein War crimes, when the booze started talking, and he wanted to make it into a Holy War: Muslim mullahs are responsible for the deaths of thousands of American citizens. So, when people are siding with these folks that have killed thousands of American citizens, members of our own government, I think it's shameful. We've got to understand that we want the Persian people, the people of Iran, to be able to live peacefully in the region and become a stabilizing factor in the Middle East, not a destabilizing factor in the Middle East. |
