How the 'Fox News Cabinet' Helped Jumpstart Trump's Iran War
Sean Hannity mounted a full-court press, urging Trump to attack Iran. Plus, another veteran CBS News journalist says goodbye to Bari Weiss, and is Jake Tapper already pandering to David Ellison?
NEW from me and @swin24.bsky.social:
How the "Fox News Cabinet" - led by shadow chief of staff Sean Hannity - convinced Trump to go to war with Iran.
"A lot of angry people that tried to influence the president didnβt get their way and are lashing out," Hannity told us.

Summing up Iran news today, I think.
- Hormuz still effectively closed
- Drones still flying
- Iran backchanneled ceasefire requirements via Russia/Pakistan, including no new US/Israel strikes in future
- Iran is getting intel on US strikes from third parties
- Mines still in ??? territory

"Mine-laying operations are often conducted covertly at night using small vessels such as fishing dhows or fast-attack craft, allowing mines to be deployed with little warning and potentially devastating consequences."

A screenshot of Bluesky; in which Aaron Rupar is posting a clip from Trump's rally with: "Trump is blasting the Undertaker's entrance theme to pump up the crow ahead of his rally in Kentucky"
the second skeet is from FinTwitter, a bot scraping bloomberg and such with:
Iran fired missiles at Israeli and US Bases in the region - Tasnim.

Facebook post by Nekima Levy Armstrong:
"Friends, A Breaking News headline just appeared in the Star Tribune, claiming that the national Target boycott ended today. This is false. The writer of the story, Carson Hartzog, is fully aware that the Target boycott was launched in Minneapolis on February 1, 2025. I have spoken to her several times since then, yet she failed to reach out to me, Jaylani Hussein, or Monique Cullars Doty, the three founders of the national Target boycott for the story. Carson even used the photo from our press conference that includes my daughter, Assata Joy and Ms. Rosemary Nevils, an elder in our community, to try to add legitimacy to a bogus story.
I am once again disgusted by the Star Tribune and their attempts to minimize and erase the voices of our community.
The nationwide Target Boycott is not over, unless and until Target reverses its decision to rollback Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as we said from the beginning. βPastorβ Jamal Bryant does not speak for us or our community and has zero authority to end the nationwide boycott of Target, a company that is headquartered in Minneapolis.
Please donβt believe the hype and these attempts to rescue Target from the effects of capitulating to the Trump Administration. Target rolled back DEI because of Donald Trump. They donated $1 million to the Trump/Vance inauguration committee. Target also allowed ICE to stage in its parking lots during Operation Metro Surge.
The nationwide boycott of Target is successful and it will continue. Please continue to shop elsewhere."
Nekima on the Target boycott.

historically treaties were secured with hostages but I don't think we can give them tariff power, and that's the only thing that'd be a restraint against breaking the truce, Barron or Don Jr. wouldn't work

I've basically gone full Schmittian when it comes to these cretins. Ogles and his ilk aren't counterparties in a democratic system; they are sworn enemies of the American republic who are working to destroy it from within.

Even in the era of hyperpolitics, I don't think you can overcome a genuine energy crisis through posting. But decent odds we're about to find out whether that works.
