Major update: USA votes against resolution to condemn slavery. Michael Flynn gets $1.2 million DOJ settlement. Hegseth mocked by his own staff. Iran war is expanding as Trump yells. On a personal note: thank you for all the well wishes, messages, subscriptions, coffee, everything. Thank you.

Michael Flynn pleaded guilty, got the case dropped, got pardoned, and has now picked up $1.2 million from the government. At this rate, all that’s left is a loyalty punch card. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Is it just me or are things getting crazier & crazier every day? Michael Flynn has settled his lawsuit against the DOJ for $1.2 million dollars‼️ And he pleaded guilty. He committed a crime & got paid for it with our tax dollars‼️ Trump & his ilk are raping us‼️😡 #OneV1 apnews.com/article/trum...

Trump shattered our moral standing with his threats to wipe out Iran’s civilization & weakened our already shaky alliances. This war was ill thought through at the beginning, in the middle, & at the end. Appreciated chatting with Carlos Lozada & Robert Siegel: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/11/o...

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.

Buttigieg: "For the leader of this country to make a nakedly genocidal threat against another civilization as if the US was a death star that was going around blowing up civilizations, of course that is a new low ... the whole country is being judged just for tolerating that kind of thing at the WH"

Trump's Iran war has created 'worst energy crisis' in American history, fmr. Biden energy aide says youtu.be/RgwRPcBQ6lA?...

“We are living through the worst energy crisis the world has ever seen,” Amos Hochstein argues—but sooner or later, the war will end, and a rare window for bold collective action will open:

Don’t miss this one! Cindy is amazing, you’ll want to tune in and hear how she really breaks things down about the fight for privacy.

Iran has the reach and history to retaliate inside the U.S. warns former FBI and DOJ national security officials Mike Feinberg and Troy Edwards. After the admin gutted our counterterrorism apparatus, the question is whether we’ll detect threats before it’s too late.

Historically, the U.S. has managed to thwart Iranian operations on its soil. Troy Edwards, Bruria Haya Friedman-Feldman, Vishnu Kannan explore how actions from this administration may have us unprepared for Iranian retaliation to U.S.-Israeli strikes.
