Tom Cotton: "Anyone who says we're already losing or in a quagmire or the president can't succeed is akin to saying Eisenhower was losing because he hadn't made it to Berlin within two weeks of D Day. It's going to take some time."

UPDATE: i just shared this note with my colleagues: "To my incredible colleagues at CBS: I want to personally let you know that my work will soon no longer appear on CBS News. This is my decision, and I appreciate the bosses at CBS for understanding it. I will always value the opportunity I had to work alongside the talented and committed professionals here. I'm proud to have had the words 'CBS correspondent' next to my name - always will be. For the next phase of my career, I look forward to some independence and finding new spaces to share my work in line with my personal goals. I thank you all. The work will not stop, and I'll always be a call away"

We should all be counting the days until this awful embarrassment leaves the Senate and, we hope, all public life.

Joni Ernst: President Biden is lying about his son, Beau, dying in Iraq. *Beau Biden died from brain cancer, which is believed to be connected to his exposure to burn pits during his service in Iraq. @atrupar (June 2024)

@NormOrnstein Gee wilikers! That’s a terrible thing for a president to do!!

That can’t be! Trump said flatly that their nuclear capability had been comment obliterated! Don’t tell me he was lying

Huge implications to this: US has determined Iran could retrieve the highly-enriched uranium stored at Isfahan. There is now an active debate over whether to deploy US troops to seize the uranium. nytimes.com/2026/03/07/us/…

grossi wants to be un secretary general and american support is crucial for his candidacy. he wouldn’t be saying this unless he really believes it.

BREAKING: The UN’s nuclear watchdog chief, Rafael Grossi, says inspectors have not found evidence of a coordinated Iranian programme to build nuclear weapons despite Israeli and US claims. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/dp8prb

If Israel still has not been able to eliminate a small number of Hamas fighters after two or more years of fighting in a small territory, why does the US thinks it can beat and topple Iran, with a huge geographical size and a population of 90 million people, in three or four weeks -- much less three or four years -- especially when Iran was willing to sacrifice thousands of troops, without a hint of regret, fighting a war with Iraq several decades ago.

Daniel Larison/“The U.S. has waged many stupid wars of choice, but this stands out as one of the most senseless we have ever seen. There is no cause for war. The U.S. and Israeli governments started this war because they could and because they felt like doing it. Trump has condemned the region to endure another pointless and unnecessary conflict that will leave only ruin in its wake.”

@JohnJHarwood This is Trump testing the waters for his latest insane move. Once the public rejects the idea, it will vanish — just as his seizure of Greenland, the Panama Canal, and Canada, all abruptly disappeared!!

ON BENDED KNEE— Ellison family has already shown a willingness to bend to Donald Trump’s will and change their coverage and personnel to please his whims. Trump wants to control the news, and his Justice Department has been largely purged of anyone who might ask too many questions of a deal like this.

Let's ignore for the moment that this ignoramus has no idea there was no Cabinet until 1789. If your frame is the most grifters and corrupt incompetents in history, this is the Number One Cabinet
Secretary Sean Duffy@SecDuffy
Best cabinet since 1776 🇺🇸
