This war isn’t an emergency that requires us to give the president more latitude. It’s a monstrosity that requires that judges, lawmakers and above all citizens work to preserve the integrity of elections and the republic.

CNN’s Cosplaying Correspondent Scott Jennings pushed a dubious White House talking point on Iran to millions, only for CNN’s actual reporters to knock it down—an episode that drew blowback inside the network, Status has learned.

CNN's Scott Jennings pushed a dubious White House talking point on the Iran war to millions that was later knocked down by the network's own journalists.

Frustration over Jennings has now made its way to CNN's senior leaders. More in @status.news www.status.news/p/scott-jenn...

ICE is directly interfering with medical care in hospitals and clinics nationwide

Nearly 40 have died, with critical meds and care being withheld

That’s not justice, it’s inhumanity

Thankfully @gavinnewsom.bsky.social is taking the lead in safeguarding patient care.

Every senator who voted for this jerk should be ashamed of themselves.
THEY are responsible for this mess.

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge.

They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership.

We do not have serious people running our country.

Trump ripped up the Iran nuclear deal and created this mess. Now, he's putting servicemembers in harm's way with no clear plan and no Congressional approval. The American people deserve answers — and Congress needs to do its job.

Kash Patel, the FBI's agent of chaos The biggest little scandal in Washington right now is how bad Patel is at being FBI director.

In many ways, Patel’s time as FBI director is a classic Washington scandal: The slow-motion, slightly-off-the-front-page collapse of an incredibly important institution.

The sooner this is acknowledged in the mainstream, the sooner we can combat it with a unified message of rejection.
Especially MSM.

Now, Democrats need to message this properly so voters know who to properly blame—-Trump, MAGA, Republicans.
That’s how they win in November & begin to fix this Republican made catastrophe.

The Navy owns two hospital ships, the USNS Comfort and USNS Mercy. Neither appears ready to deploy any time soon, and both were at a maintenance facility run by Alabama Shipyard in Mobile as of today.

“Freedom of memory,” wrote the skiier Kateryna Kotsar on her glove. It also works the other way around: we need memory for freedom.

WATCH: “TN Republicans have a bill for women to face the death penalty for having abortions… You write about you and your wife losing a child- how would that experience have ended differently if you lived in Tennessee?”
