Tehran wins by not losing; Trump loses by not winning. My @TheAtlantic essay on Iran's 47-year strategy of fighting American presidents by sabotaging American public opinion, and whether it will work against Donald Trump. theatlantic.com/international/…

U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum took the Delcy administration one step further and called it a “strategic ally.” As I said earlier, Venezuela is a poster child of the Trump administration and will not change the status quo in Venezuela to sell it as a successful operation.

US officials tell The Post they no longer believe it is possible to achieve the war's original goals of overthrowing the Iranian regime and putting its nuclear program permanently out of reach

🚨An Israeli official told me that U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are negotiating with the speaker of the Iranian parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf

Trump and his aides began referring to Reza Pahlavi as the “loser prince.”

We should expect further dismissals in the coming days as Delcy reshuffles the cabinet and surrounds herself with exclusively loyal inner circle. The politics in Venezuela evolves toward a system centered entirely on herself—a kind of emerging ‘Delcyismo.’ cnnespanol.cnn.com/2026/03/20/ven…

@FerrerBreda Why do they call it as "the Delcynate"? Delcyismo sounds better

@imdat_oner They’re calling it the Delcynate

I told @CNNEE that by appointing González,a military intelligence officer with a documented history of human rights abuses, Delcy is clearly aiming for a consolidation phase in which stability is maintained through fear and intimidation rather than reforms cnnespanol.cnn.com/2026/03/19/ven…

#Venezuela’s evolving criminal landscape is increasingly shaped by hybrid networks that blur the lines between illicit activity, governance, and regional security dynamics. In the first part of the Orion Policy Institute Transnational Crime Project (OPI-TCP) series, @DucharmeJackie analyzes these trends and considers their implications for U.S. strategy across #LatinAmerica. #transnationalcrime #illicitnetworks #hybridthreats orionpolicy.org/venezuelas-hyb…

I told @WSJ that Delcy is redesigning the entire power structure to maintain a managed authoritarian system in Venezuela, not to move toward democracy. To consolidate her power, she needs to sideline or eliminate figures who can block her influence. wsj.com/world/americas…
