Breaking WaPo: A top deputy to U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro acknowledged in a closed-door hearing this month that the Justice Department did not have evidence of wrongdoing in its criminal investigation of the Federal Reserve over the cost of its building renovations, according to court proceedings.

The Trump administration considers AI governance rules, and the rule of law applicable to frontier AI companies like Anthropic, as an impediment to its aggregation of power over this novel technology, writes Alan Raul. Congress must step in and act in the public’s interest, he says.

Reminder: The vote-by-mail fraud rate is 0.00006%. Donald Trump doesn't care about election integrity; he only cares about disenfranchising millions of voters.

Trump: No one knows who we're negotiating with in Iran except that we're actually talking to the right people.

Iran has circulated a letter to member countries of the International Maritime Organization saying “non-hostile vessels” can transit the Strait of Hormuz “in co-ordination with Iranian authorities”.

The most pro-war crime administration since Vietnam?

to keep functioning, a society must discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

Honestly, Trump should just announce that the war is over, that Iran has unconditionally surrendered and banned missiles, that the US now owns the Straits of Hormuz and Mojtaba Khamenei has joined the GOP and the 82nd Airborne is patrolling the streets of Tehran. If you're gonna lie, just do it.

When we say that the deportation agenda isn't possible without local cooperation, this is exactly what we mean. Local police are getting bankrolled by ICE to inflict harm on their own communities — a horrifying misuse of taxpayer dollars.

Any person whose job involves monitoring social media posts in Canada can easily tell you that anti-Indian racism in this country has reached shocking and terrifying levels. I’m not sure if people grasp how serious it has become and I’m sad to say this event doesn’t surprise me. It’s a crisis.

The Trump administration will pay $928 million to reimburse TotalEnergies for projects off the coasts of New York and North Carolina. The French firm will reinvest that money into oil and gas projects, including a Texas LNG export facility. Via @stateline.org rhodeislandcurrent.com/2026/03/24/r...

McGovern: He’s doing nothing to make healthcare more accessible. They say we don’t have the money—but we have a billion dollars a day to blow on this crazy war. I don’t think he gives a shit about the American people. Gas prices are skyrocketing, and he’s golfing.

Incredible scenes here, it looks like the US is effectively suing for peace and Iran is saying "no thanks" while Israel is most concerned that the US might actually succeed. www.axios.com/2026/03/24/i...

Minnesota sued the Trump administration for access to evidence regarding the killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Local and state investigators alleged in the lawsuit that they have been stonewalled by federal officials.

Trump’s Dept of War wants 2 detonate old bombs on Guam. They want 2 explode bombs on beach on top of 80% of Guam's drinking water. The Supreme Court is weighing in & the case could jeopardize the rights of the CHamoru people &Indigenous people throughout U.S. territories. ictnews.org/news/the-sup...

@ilangoldenberg.bsky.social spent 15 years gaming out what a US-Iran war would look like. Trump chose the worst-case scenario: Escalation, economic shock and long-term instability. Read @zeteo.com: zeteo.com/p/i-wargamed...

FWIW absolutely no one I know who has expertise in spaceflight or planetary exploration thinks this is either remotely plausible or a good idea to attempt on such a timeline. The dominant reaction is somewhere on the spectrum between mockery and dismay. Real, important science was cancelled for this

Ukraine's military intelligence has "growing evidence" that Russia continues to provide intelligence to Iran, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said.

CNN taking a systemic legal violation and reframing it as a disagreement. The Pentagon did not receive a scolding. It was caught breaking the law.

Among the brilliancies in this essay is the concept of the “bureaucratic double bind”: an organization cannot function without its members exercising independent judgment, but it cannot acknowledge the judgment without undermining itself & being seen as “political.” open.substack.com/pub/artifici...

The central faultline of the emerging post-liberal international order will be a geopolitical struggle over what metabolic-industrial system will dominate the 21st century — with smaller powers struggling to avoid total alignment with either bloc. My latest: foreignpolicy.com/2026/03/23/c...

Part of what this story underscores is that the right perceives ICE not just as an immigration enforcement machine but more broadly as a sort of executive cheat code that allows Trump to override by fiat all normal administrative proceduralisms www.cnn.com/2026/03/23/m...

also suggests people ought to be calling into visible right-wing talk radio with weird trojan horse ideas i mean why not at this point?

🚨 US military document leaked to shows how the Pentagon is working with private companies to manipulate the information you see about the Iran war www.kenklippenstein.com/p/leaked-doc...

Looks like one of my slides made it into this Space Force brief on how to annotate imagery! Glad to see they liked it as much as I did Also seems like the slides just endorse careful language for photo interpretation fwiw. Gotta respect analytic tradecraft

When in doubt, Trump is lying

Thought Exercise If I told you that he is lowkey referencing a program that uses data to target women with harassment designed to drain their energy, fill them with fear, and drive them insane — could you entertain that possibility? Or would you say I am coo coo bananas?

“By fully joining a partner that is reconciled to endlessly fighting, the U.S. has given up its most valuable role in the Middle East: the outside power with a wide array of economic and diplomatic tools that Israel needs…What was once a win-win has the markings of a lose-lose.“ —thanks 4 gift link
