I need every Democrat currently supporting Graham Platner to understand that excusing his racism and misogyny because he "says is like it is" is the exact same excuse MAGA gave for supporting trump.

“Codify” is not some special armor that protects things from republicans. The Voting Rights Act was also “codified” and that didn’t stop the Supreme Court from striking down key pieces of it.

In the dramatic circumstances of war, information must guard against the risk of turning into propaganda. It is every journalist's duty to verify the news, so as not to become a megaphone for power. They must show the suffering that war always brings to populations, which entails showing the face of war and recounting it through the eyes of victims.

This is a clear directive to provide positive war coverage or else licenses may not be renewed. This is worse than the comedian stuff, and by a lot. The stakes here are much higher. He’s not talking about late night shows, he’s talking about how a war is covered.
Brendan Carr@BrendanCarrFCC
Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions - also known as the fake news - have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not. And frankly, changing course is in their own business interests since trust in legacy media has now fallen to an all time low of just 9% and are ratings disasters. The American people have subsidized broadcasters to the tune of billions of dollars by providing free access to the nation’s airwaves. It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news. When a political candidate is able to win a landslide election victory after in the face of hoaxes and distortions, there is something very wrong. It means the public has lost faith and confidence in the media. And we can’t allow that to happen. Time for change!

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.

9/ 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.

8/ CRISIS FOUR: Trump has no endgame. Iran and its proxies can create chaos indefinitely.
So what’s next? A ground invasion?This would be Armageddon. Thousands of dead Americans.
Declare false victory? Then the new Iranian hardliners in charge just rebuild what we destroyed.

This is the escalation that should really worry Americans. They’re feeling tremendous pressure to reopen Hormuz without a ceasefire agreement. Hegseth wants boots on the ground, Rubio is opposed (Cuba is definitely safe if that happens). Colby must be livid. Even Vance is likely opposed. But they can see no other way to reopen Hormuz.
This is @ProfessorPape’s escalation trap. If we send in ground forces, no upper bound can be put on the duration of the commitment. Could be a decade or more. Something of the order of a million troops will be required. Casualties will be horrendous. Iran is not Iraq, or even Vietnam. This is going to be extremely painful and it will destroy the American world position. At the minimum, there can be no deterrence in Asia whatsoever if this commitment is made.
Policy Tensor@policytensor
You can land boots and reopen Hormuz. I’ll be costly. But at least it can be done. But what is the exit? How do you leave? The only exit is if you topple the regime and replace it with a puppet. But that too may demand a decade long counterinsurgency war that we would likely lose

Elections have consequences -- for 50 years our leadership understood the risk of attacking Iran. Then you morons elected Trump; they fired all the serious guys, put in place General Deez Nutz and here we are.

FACT CHECK: Democrats introduced a clean bill to fully fund TSA with no conditions.
Republicans blocked it.
Democrats are ready to pay TSA agents TODAY.
Republicans would rather lie on twitter and ruin our travel.
Homeland Security@DHSgov
Thanks to the Democrats' reckless shutdown, security lines at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport are stretching OUT THE DOOR. The Democrats' political games are making spring break travel a NIGHTMARE as they continue to withhold funding from DHS and refuse to pay our @TSA officers.

I don't think anyone ever really cared about Climate Change, because Joe Biden and Kamala Harris passed the world's largest climate bill and nobody cared at all, and now we've got Trump subsidizing coal and functionally disbanding the EPA.

fuck man we really are not gonna do anything about climate change huh

Bonehead Take: Hillary ran a terrible campaign
Actual Reality: Hillary ran an amazing campaign and still almost beat Trump despite a massive, illegal, and currently still running Russian anti-Democrat media operation

FYI: I’d 100000% back Hillary Clinton if she ran for president again 🤷🏻♂️

Iran likely has more sleeper terror cells in the US than any adversary.
Good thing we have *checks notes* …. Direction of National Security Tulsi Gabbard and DHS Secretary Noem…
…fuck.
Juliette Kayyem@juliettekayyem
Iran has the capacity to launch terror and cyber attacks against allies and US. Due to DOGE, partisan firings of FBI and cyber officials, and lack of focus or know how by AG Bondi and DHS Noem, they are ignoring this possibility completely.

The big difference between Dems & Repubs on the Epstein files has always been this: Every Democrat has said “open it ALL, put it ALL out there, EVERY big name, Bill Clinton & any other Democrat, doesn’t matter, EVERYONE should be held accountable.” But damn near every Republican has been doing whatever they can to keep Trump’s name hidden, to make sure Trump is never held accountable.

A new investigation reveals that the Trump administration withheld Epstein files with allegations that Trump sexually abused a minor.
The files include "50 pages of FBI interviews" and interviews with "a woman who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago when she was a minor."
