BREAKING NEWS: Reporter Calls Out Trump's Lie Directly To His Face Really American | Tuesday Morning, March 10, 2026

A CNN correspondent asked the question. A New York Times White House reporter followed up. And somewhere between the two, the President of the United States admitted he doesn’t know enough about his own weapons program to explain why 175 people, most of them children, are dead in southern Iran.

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarβ€”far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told.

As a Board of Visitors member, Erika Kirk is one of 16 members responsible for making recommendations to the Secretary of Defense about changes at the Air Force Academy.

Is this typically a board filled with ideological influencers without any connection to the US military?

U.S. military kills 6 in strike on alleged drug boat in the Eastern Pacific The attack brought the death toll to at least 157 people since the Trump administration began targeting those it calls β€œnarcoterrorists” in small vessels in early September.

Murdering foreign citizens under the lie that they might be transporting drugs is an international crime.

The United States has become a criminal enterprise.

The Threat of Retaliation in America The Trump regime's actions are making America less safe. They are exploiting fear to seize more power. We should not be intimidated.

It would be a mistake for us to assume Donald Trump…will not try something to provoke fear and deny our will. We should be ready. And we should keep in mind that his time is limited and his regime will not endure, as long as we stay engaged and keep the faith.

Scott MacFarlane exits CBS amid more shakeups post-merger Scott MacFarlane is bidding farewell to CBS News after five years. His is just the latest departure for the network after a controversial merger.

Congrats to Scott McFarlane for having sense enough to get out of Bari Weiss's new CBS propaganda channel.

He's too good for what that place is becoming.

Guess What Moderate Democratic Voters Aren’t Anymore? Moderate. Two new polls suggest that moderate Democrats too want higher taxes on the rich and some measure of economic populism. Moderate isn’t what it was in 1992.

Evidence is emerging that suggests Democratic voters who describe themselves as moderate are now in a different place.

They want Democrats to push harder to increase taxes on the wealthy & corporations and don’t think the party is overly liberal on issues such as abortion & transgender rights.
