The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.
A truly extraordinary moment.
We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.
Act like it.
There is absolutely no bottom.

The war will be over when I feel it in my bone spurs.

See the chart below for a clear explanation of why we are asking you to CALL YOUR SENATORS to tell them to VOTE NO on SAVE
This simply could not be more urgent. It knocks hundreds of thousands off voter rolls.The SAVE Act may be the most undemocratic legislation in the history of this country
FCC to journalists: cover the Iran war the way the president prefers or lose your broadcast license.
We should assume anything the administration is telling us, about the war and everything else, is a lie. That should be the starting point. Force them to prove the things they say. The burden of proof is on them, as they have repeatedly and incessantly shown themselves to be unreliable narrators.
10/ All of this was totally foreseeable. Frankly, it’s why previous presidents weren’t so stupid to start a war like this.
Trump has lost control of the war. His best course now is to cut his losses and end it. That’s the only way to prevent an even bigger disaster.

More evidence for Trump’s next impeachment.
seems like the clearest purpose of the war is to reopen the thing that closed because of the war?
Pete Hegseth is openly calling on Trump-friendly oligarchs to take over the media while unshackling the military from the "rules of engagement" he hates so much. What he really wants is a world in which horrors like the school bombing don't ever fully come to light.

Trump spawn ascendant? smdh
how ironic to see the state protect two people who sought to strip the state while working under the direction of elon musk, who has made it impossible to seek recourse when people get death threats and harassment on twitter
“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”
If you think he cares about gas prices, housing costs, home electricity costs, inflation, no jobs, troops getting killed, grocery prices, health care costs, or anything else that would improve the lives of most Americans, you are wrong.
5,000 Marines are going to the desert to fight a war, Trump's going to Palm Beach to fight the greens.
"Couldn’t Trump’s “little excursion” be his “mission accomplished”? Couldn’t the expression be wrapped around Trump’s neck as a term of ridicule and opprobrium? Why shouldn’t it become an important signpost in the downward trajectory of a failed presidency?" open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
BOASBERG: “.. the subpoenas’ dominant (if not sole) purpose is to harass and pressure Powell ..
“.. the Government has offered no evidence whatsoever that Powell committed any crime other than displeasing the President ..”

✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here.
Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.
From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.
Today’s headlines vs. what Trump is posting about:
Confess your war crimes challenge!
Petey: I’m on it!
We should all be very afraid of what this idiot president is willing to do to save his polling numbers, with the understanding that he was dumb and dangerous enough to start the war without realizing Iran would close the Strait. END/
Trump planning an "excursion" for him?
Us too.
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.
Propaganda Pete
Hegseth: "Some in the press can't stop. Allow me to make suggestions. People look at the TV and they see banners, 'Mideast War Intensifies.' What should it read instead? How about, 'Iran increasingly desperate.' More fake news from CNN. The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better"
