Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

My report:

U.S. Tomahawk Hit Naval Base Beside Iranian School, Video Shows The evidence contradicts President Trump’s claim that Iran was responsible for a strike at the school that killed 175 people, most of them children.

Breaking News: New video adds to evidence that a U.S. missile likely hit an Iranian school where 175 people, many of them children, were reportedly killed.

Women stand in park next to street holding large letters that say END IRAN WAR

END IRAN WAR. To keep the message on people's minds, Indivisible Chicago's Visibility Brigade holds these words near a busy north side street. Drivers honk, pedestrians wave. #EndIranWar

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Liars. All of them

Reporter: Did the US bomb an elementary school and kill 175 people? Trump: Based on what I’ve seen, it was done by Iran. Reporter: Is that true Mr. Hegseth? Hegseth: We’re investigating. Trump: It was done by Iran. They are very inaccurate with their munitions.

this is unspeakable

Kristi Noem Misled Congress About Corey Lewandowski’s Role in DHS Contracts Testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Noem denied that Corey Lewandowski had any role in approving contracts. But internal DHS records and interviews with current and former agency staffer...

Kristi Noem personally approved all DHS contracts over a certain threshold.

But before the contracts reached her, they had to be approved by political appointees. Lewandowski was typically the last to OK a contract before Noem, DHS officials said.

The title for a story, reading: Intel report warns large-scale war ‘unlikely’ to oust Iran’s regime A classified U.S. report doubts that Iran’s opposition would take power following either a short or extended U.S. military campaign. Updated March 7, 2026 at 11:09 a.m. ESTtoday at 11:09 a.m. EST 5 min Summary 1,660 Make us preferred on Google Pro-government demonstrators march against the U.S.-Israeli military campaign in Tehran on Friday. A classified U.S. report recently predicted that the Iranian regime would be able to hold onto power even if the United States attacked. (Vahid Salemi/AP) By John Hudson and Warren P. Strobel I've marked the bylyine with a pink rectangle.

WaPo is in disastrous shape, but this is a wild byline on a story like this.

(For you youngs who forget this, Strobel was one of the few people who got the Iraq War right.)

No. It’s the same war crime. Don’t read into that statement.

This could get ugly quickly.

Mind, it's not like Trump will care: Tom Homan was or is doing the same.

Lewandowski Dominates at DHS Once Noem took over at DHS, with Lewandowski by her side, the longtime Trump ally began to use his position to contact powerful people in the private sector for purposes that were never made clear to many senior department officials, multiple DHS staffers told NR. Lewandowski regularly ran meetings with private sector companies and would constantly pester senior leaders inside DHS to track down CEOs’ cellphone numbers, fomenting suspicions within DHS that he was using his connections to private sector interests for personal gain. Kickstart Your Day with The Morning Jolt Start your mornings with expert political insights from NR’s Jim Geraghty. Enter your email Subscribe “His team would call private sector companies, always under the guise that the ‘secretary’ would be the one calling, the ‘secretary’ needed the information. The ‘secretary’ needed a meeting,” a senior administration official recalled. “It was never the secretary, it was always Corey.”

Plenty of right wingers had it in for Kristi and Corey--some of the best hit pieces have been in right wing outlets, like this one in NRO. But it's hilarious that Lewandowski's constant effort to cash is treated as a new thing--he's been doing it for 11 years.

I sprung for this insanely wasteful case bc it really needed to be public. Normally I'd ask for contributions. Instead, consider making a contribution to a bail fund or a mutual aid fund.

THE COURT: No. But that's not the normal way it's presented. It's normally presented with the exhibits on the left, identification, date of identification, witness who identifies it, whether it's admitted over objection or not. Haven't you seen that list? Have you never tried a case in this court before? MS. WAGNER: I have it for you. THE COURT: Thank you, Ms. Wagner. MS. KEIL: No, Your Honor. THE COURT: Okay. You need to do that promptly. MS. KEIL: Yes, Your Honor.

Here's how the day of the Jacob Winkler trial started. His is one of the Juicebox Jeanine prosecutions that failed in epic fashion--basically an unhoused man she tried to turn into a grave threat to Trump bc he had a cat toy.

This is Beryl Howell and an AUSA who doesn't know Judge Howell.

These are all cases that have received a lot of focus (and doesn't, for example, unpack the groups of people that DHS got far right propagandists to accuse of being terrorists). But it's great that WSJ is putting $$ to laying this out bc maybe right wingers in Congress will read it.

Israel bombs Tehran oil depots; Bahrain says Iran hit desalination plant Kuwait and Saudi Arabia report more attacks as Trump says the war will only end when Iran's leaders 'cry uncle'.

Bahrain says an Iranian drone did damage to a desalinization plant (Iran had said it would retaliate against the country whence an attack on its own plant was launched).

Trump’s “Warflation” Has Just Begun If he were trying to increase prices on purpose, would he be doing anything differently?

Get ready for some "warflation": higher prices for oil, gas, food (lots of fertilizer passes through Hormuz), goods made with petrochemicals (umbrellas, shampoo, toys, etc.), and pretty much anything that needs to be transported anywhere.
