Trump sued famed pollster Ann Selzer and Gannett's Des Moines Register, who do not have the resources that the likes of Paramount and Disney have, but who fought the case instead of folding. They won today. apnews.com/article/trump-law…

Trump could have feasted on the PR chest-beating from the Maduro capture until the midterms. But his Mars god-of-war complex wouldn’t let him.   Get my full take on the Iran attack on Fresh Hell. tinabrown.substack.com/p/mes…

Always make sure to follow your company’s media policy before speaking to…the media.
Throughout the first year of Donald Trump’s second administration, Vanity Fair writer Chris Whipple has interviewed Susie Wiles, White House chief of staff, amid each moment of crisis. His insider’s account of Trump 2.0 joins the photography of Christopher Anderson for a portrait of power—and peril. Part 1 of 2: vanityfair.com/news/story/tr…

Where has all the leadership gone?  If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the first amendment?  The “suspending indefinitely” of Jimmy Kimmel immediately after the Chairman of the FCC's aggressive yet hollow threatening of the Disney Company is yet another example of out-of-control intimidation.  Maybe the Constitution should have said, “Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one’s political or financial self-interest.” By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

worth remembering that when Trump announced a travel ban in 2017, people literally went to airports to protest. Eight years later, Trump announces a new one and it's not even front page news. We're the frogs and the water is getting awfully hot.

Oh for God's sake, the administration has already confirmed the authenticity of the message.
. @SecDef response to the @TheAtlantic article…. “You’re talking about a deceitful and highly discredited “so-called journalist”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
A spokesperson for the National Security Council, Brian Hughes, confirmed the authenticity of the group chat to which Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, was inadvertently added. x.com/JenGriffinFNC/… nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna1… usatoday.com/story/news/pol… reuters.com/world/us/top-t… lemonde.fr/en/united-stat…

American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, @JeffreyGoldberg. theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

🧵 In honor of Witkoff’s interview with Tucker, here’s a look at some of the greatest hits from Qatar’s “decent, moderate, and well-motivated” government, over the last year alone: 1. Building in Doha lit up to commemorate the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh
Steve Witkoff on Tucker Carlson: "In the case of the Qataris, they're criticized for not being well-motivated. It's preposterous. They are well-motivated. They're good, decent people." Bloody hell.

Darren Beattie, who was fired during President Trump’s first term after attending and speaking at a white nationalist event, has repeatedly promoted an array of conspiracy theories, including “The Great Replacement” theory. How can he represent U.S. values abroad as Acting Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs? We appreciate @RepKamlagerDove for leading this important letter with over 40 of her colleagues and urge @SecRubio to heed this call and dismiss him from this role.
House Democrats urge Rubio to immediately fire Darren Beattie, @marcrod97 reports. ji.news/4bEIfzR
