the Congressman's horrendous statement, Politico downplaying that statement, the Congressman then doubling down like no no I said what I said
fuckin yikes all around
Seems like pretty straightforward book-cooking here. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/b...
The president's official advisers didn't have a plan for Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz, and his Fox News advisers utterly ignored that possibility before the attack. www.mediamatters.org/us-iran-rela...
Congrats to the White House Correspondents Association on deciding it was a good idea to “celebrate the First Amendment” with this guy.
The Green Rooms Are Empty, All The Psychos Are Here
The day begins with a former Fox host turned Trump administration official ranting at the media over his own failings and ends with a former Fox host turned Trump administration official ranting at a judge over her own failings.
Hegseth -- like the president -- just doesn't think the press should provide scrutiny. They want the propaganda Hegseth's old colleagues do at Fox. And they hope that's what Ellison seizing CNN will do to that network. They don't believe in the 1st amendment. www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...
How about on the president's favorite show, Fox & Friends? The most comprehensive coverage that aired the month before the attack is a retired admiral pooh-poohing the idea of Iran closing the Strait, and Brian Kilmeade agreeing with him.
Wanna see the most comprehensive coverage of the Strait of Hormuz from Mark Levin, Jesse Watters, and Laura Ingraham last month? Here it is:
Wanna see the most detailed coverage of the strait on Hannity before the attack? It's him on February 6 referencing the "“all-important Straits of Hormuz,' not explaining why it's crucial, and pivoting to saber-rattling.
President Trump's Fox News advisers utterly ignored the possibility that Iran could respond to an attack by closing the Strait of Hormuz as they urged him to go to war last month. www.mediamatters.org/us-iran-rela...
Defense secretary openly states that a pro-Trump billionaire taking over a news network (following regulatory help from the administration) will result in coverage more favorable for the administration.
This is the person who has his finger on the nuclear button.
I think the rising generation of young republicans is...something even the current republican party is not ready for, as evidenced by these recent clashes on Heritage, Tucker, etc. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/o...
A televised Cabinet meeting where the president solicits volunteers for this plan would be fun.
If someone were to suggest this on tomorrow's Fox & Friends there's a nonzero chance it would happen.
Jeffrey Goldberg accidentally turning McKay Coppins into a gambling addict seems like it would be Bad For The Jews.
Ubiquitously advertised betting available through the computer you carry in your pocket via apps designed and managed by ruthlessly efficient data scientists and programmers seems like a mistake. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...
Fox’s biggest hawks are thrilled with the Iran war — and floating risky escalations

"No one gives a [cuss] about housing" suggests to me that Donald Trump may not sign a generational housing bill because that topic is not exciting to him
Fox News hosts kept stressing that "mass deportations" were really popular and then never using the term again. www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox...
A White House aide made waves this week by urging House Republicans to stop talking about "mass deportations." By my analysis, the president's top Fox News propagandists dropped that language weeks or months ago. www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox...
I'm sure there are some people who make a lot of money but I just pay more for any product that uses oil and anything that is shipped via engines that use oil ie virtually everything I buy.

The Trump fund that capitulating media outlets paid their settlements to has been dissolved and it is unclear where the money went. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
It’s the most consequential test yet of the Fox-Trump feedback loop. www.mediamatters.org/us-iran-rela...
