There are going to be Republicans running in many places who will go out of their way this October to point out to voters that they never asked for Trump’s endorsement. Susan Collins will top the list.

We bombed the hell out of the Vietnamese for many years. They never surrendered. What happens next when you bomb people and they still won’t surrender?

CBS’ Mamdani Mania Under Bari Weiss’ leadership, CBS News staffers are increasingly worried the network’s editorial priorities are mirroring The Free Press, particularly in coverage of New York mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Some CBS News staffers worry Bari Weiss is steering coverage toward The Free Press’ priorities, particularly on Mamdani

As Status noted in this excellent report tonight, I was told a few days ago that Bari Weiss has her own designated Mamdani reporter at CBS News -- who has posted dozens of Instagram stories on the NYC mayor in the past month.

Bari Weiss Is Going Full ‘Propaganda-Palooza’ With the Iran War The CBS News war coverage is going exactly as we thought it would. Plus, Gayle King goes 'all in' on Weiss, while CNN commentator Scott Jennings sucks up to her.

Another day of interest on the tariffs Trump collected and refuses to give back. American consumers paid the tariffs, American taxpayers pay the interest on Trump holding onto the money as long as possible. Every day the bill goes up.

AOC: They wanted to issue this statement as though we’re just going after these 30-year-old men on Medicaid playing video games in their basement, right? This was the narrative that we heard.

First of all, I think everyone should have healthcare in America, regardless of who you are

CBS: Trump said he would like to protect Iranians he'd like to come to power. How would you protect potential leaders inside the country?

HEGSETH: The best way to protect them is what we're doing now. What you see between American & Israel efforts is a generational opportunity for people of Iran

On March 8, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations. Six male narco-terrorists were killed during this action. No U.S. military forces were harmed. @DeptofWar #OpSouthernSpear

We’re still murdering people in “drug boats” even as we start a new war in Iran. Six people today.

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

Yeah, good luck trying to convince the majority of Americans that the party who doesn’t control the presidency, senate or house is responsible for airport delays. Maybe you can give them a class on the filibuster then explain why their ICE reform request is unreasonable.
