Very dangerous. It’s both a childish attempt to win the court case about the arch by claiming it’s for national security purposes and a potentially dangerous expansion of armed power in the capital as we approach years that may include many protests, including over the outcomes of elections.

Donald Trump trying to win a court case by putting sniper’s nests in the nation’s capital.

Happy 50th anniversary to “All the President’s Men” — a film that owes its existence to Redford, who bought the film rights, developed the script and cajoled a reluctant Woodward & Bernstein. I thought it was “a great character study,” he said later. But, for months, “they didn’t return my calls.”

Iran says Lebanon is part of the ceasefire. The U.S. and Israel say it is not. This is why real diplomats spend considerable time on joint communiques. Each side will always spin agreements to their domestic audiences. But you can’t have disputes over fundamental matters like entire theaters of war.

The degree of strategic defeat this is for the United States is not being fully recognized. Getting all sanctions lifted, all funds unfrozen, and a toll set on the Strait of Hormuz is a victory even someone as delusional as Khamenei wouldn’t have imagined.

It’s hard to get a sense from this how big the crowd was. I was in the circled area watching the speakers from the side. There were well over a thousand people there as well as more on the other side of the street, not visible in this photo (not to mention the thousands behind the photographer).

So how does keeping Disney+ help with the Nexstar/Sinclair problem? You’re acting like we don’t know about the FCC/merger situation that started this, but that doesn’t explain why giving Disney my money is better. What’s your alternative strategy here? Are you a bot?
