Congress just demanded Hegseth stop interfering with Stars and Stripes, the only military press outlet with a congressional mandate for editorial independence. A federal judge ruled the Pentagon press restrictions unconstitutional. Twice. Hegseth defied both rulings.

Phang: I think they understand that they gave him such wide berth that he has now said, “Thank you for the inch—I’m going to take 100 miles.” And now they’re trying to reel him back in, as we’ve seen through a series of decisions that have come out of SCOTUS. But they haven’t done us any favors.

This isn't legal analysis. It's idiocy: "A White House official added that electric plants are legitimate military targets because destroying them could foment civil unrest, complicating Tehran’s path to a nuclear device." That would be an F on a bar exam. And WSJ does a good job exposing it. 1/

Trump said he spoke to a former president about bombing Iran. Four denials suggest otherwise.
Trump said twice Monday that he spoke to one of his predecessors about the Iran war and that the former president said he wished he had taken the action Trump did.

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.
