F.C.C. Chair Threatens to Revoke Broadcasters’ Licenses Over War Coverage www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/w...
This is authoritarianism.
It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.
1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.

Wow. Total Handmaid’s Tale stuff. Thank you ProPublica for covering this. Apparently the people who think that mask requirements are unconstitutional are fine w forcing women to undergo surgery.
It is dangerous and terrible but also just so deeply embarrassing that this is how our country is being run
Great question, Ryan J. Reilly. Ms. Pirro’s meltdown, in lieu of facts & a decent argument, speaks volumes. Keep up the good work!
I attempted to asked U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro whether she thought Judge James Boasberg — when deciding the Federal Reserve subpoenas issue before him — factored in her office’s prior attempt to indict six Democrats over their political speech.
To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines.
The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.
Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.
We are a nation of 349M, yet one man decided to launch our nation into a reckless, illegal war without congressional authorization or counsel or the support of the American people. He didn’t think he had any duty to sell it or serve the people’s interests. This is why despotic rule is so dangerous.
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
Guys, relax - Hegseth says the Strait of Hormuz is wide open for shipping as long as you ignore Iran shooting missiles at you
You can tell the war isn’t going Trump’s way.
Pete Hegseth is spending a lot of his press conference attacking the media for accurate coverage.
A must read:

I hope this is one of the most consequential pieces I will have ever written.
Epstein and His Co-Conspirators’ New York Crimes: What NY officials can now do
In this week's 1 on 1, @kimlanelaw.bsky.social joins Harry to explain how democracies slide into autocracy—and why stopping Trump’s democratic backsliding will require a response equal to the scale of the threat. bit.ly/ScheppeleTF
Gillibrand: "How they missed this was a girls' school is very concerning to me. If Sec. Hegseth did not cut the funding for this area of review by 90%, if he did not continually try to undermine the rules & procedures our service members & generals take - I think he should resign bc of this failure"
Ms. Noem discovered that in Minnesota.
Gen. Grynkewich: "What I've observed over the course of studying air power in history is that any time you attack a civilian population, you usually end up finding that it just hardens their resolve."
The Trump WH is starting to reap what it has sown in terms of screwing over counterparties:
-Iran can't trust a negotiated settlement so why reach one?
-Ds in Congress can't trust Trump to follow the law so why bargain w/him?
-Universities see past deals leading to future shakedowns so why make one?

It is also true that people with dementia frequently give answers like this.
Nearly 6 hours since a GOP congressman said “Muslims don’t belong in American society,” not a single member of Republican leadership in the House will weigh in.
Um, yep, this says what needs to be said.
For a US citizen to arrive from abroad and simply disappear, being detained by Trump's secret police, is no longer anything unusual. www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/f...
Trump is in serious trouble. His war is deeply unpopular. He's now in the toilet on the economy, immigration, and national security. His public standing is getting close to being broken in an irreparable way, akin to Bush after Iraq and Katrina:

I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...
...maybe there wasn't much planning?
