Donald Trump is stuck in “no man’s land” on Iran—he doesn't want to commit to war, but he's also unwilling to make the concessions needed for a deal.

So instead, it’s delay after delay—“two weeks, two weeks”—as the crisis grows more dangerous.

I love that Trump is bragging about the U.S. military subduing an Iranian cargo ship. Great job! The largest military in the world somehow disabled an unarmed, slow ship that was carrying stuff. Interesting flex.

If you watch and share one thing today make at this. Why is every democrat in the country not talking like this?

Is that bad? Seems bad

Wasn’t this Ivanka’s pet issue in the first term??

Patel’s lawyer’s letter says the original Atlantic story claimed they requested a battering ram because Patel was unresponsive *at FBI HQ.* (The final printed story did not say where he was unresponsive.) Can you imagine the FBI battering down their own office doors to reach a drunken FBI Director?

The DOJ Is Normalizing Vigilantism Officials at the DOJ delivered a politically convenient one-two punch to the work of their predecessors this week.

Here is a gift link to my op ed in @opinion.bloomberg.com about DOJ’s false narrative of prosecutions of FACE Act and seditious conspiracy. Trump admin is rewriting history and normalizing vigilante violence.

The kids these days will hardly believe it, but a mere two years ago, the mental & physical (lack of) acuity of Elderly Presidents was the Great Issue of Our Time. Someone should tell Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson, so they can write a book on it.

SAVE tool keeps mistakenly flagging voters as noncitizens - The Texas Tribune DHS rolled out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.

If you live in a red state, it is very likely that your state handed over their unredacted voter files & the GOP in your state will try to disqualify you if you vote for Democrats. Stay informed & inform others.

He wants to look like he’s trying; but really he wants to drag this out until the midterms & then cancel them.

I too have written about white conservatives in southern state legislatures rushing through bullshit changes to the law just to thwart the advancement of literally one black man, but I'm a historian who writes about the Jim Crow era South and not a reporter discussing current fucking events there.

Every accusation is a confession. Every time.

For the record, I was a Swalwell supporter and had planned on voting for him in the primary. Me believing the women was not political. It's based on the corroboration of evidence confirmed by multiple news outlets, and the Manhattan DA finding enough evidence exists to open a criminal probe.
