ED MORRISSEY: More Stupid Media Tricks: Trump Kept In the Dark By Aides on War, NBC ‘Reports.’
Yup, last week, they claimed killing any enemy’s leadership only prolongs a war. On Monday, the President lied about engaging in talks with Iran. On Tuesday, we should not have talks at all, pretending Iran is the same now as it was before the war.https://t.co/LEROmhfFUL

After that, one would expect that the media might be humbled into at least a consideration that Trump knows more about this than they do. For NBC, however, that is precisely why they have to double down:
They said the videos are also driving Trump’s increasing frustration with news coverage of the war. Trump has pointed to the success depicted in the daily videos to privately question why his administration can’t better influence the public narrative, asking aides why the news media doesn’t emphasize what he’s seeing, one of the current U.S. officials and the former U.S. official said.
And that’s what this story is all about. Trump made the Protection Racket Media look like a bunch of saps. Even worse, it exposed the US media industry as being invested in America’s failure if it also carries an opportunity to damage Trump. Having been exposed as water-carriers for the IRGC, now NBC wants to deflect from that revelation by painting Trump as somehow disengaged, isolated, and uninformed, which might just be the biggest case of projection since Thomas Edison invented the motion-picture industry.

JUST REMEMBER THAT THE POINT OF HIGH-SPEED RAIL IS TO SPEND THE MONEY, NOT TO BUILD A RAILROAD, AND IT ALL MAKES SENSE:
Palantir CTO @ssankar in 2024:
“For $10 billion, @elonmusk put 300 rockets in orbit.”
“For $11 billion the state of California has built 1600ft of elevated rail, with no rail.” https://t.co/1UcpANmzSR pic.twitter.com/0c0OhA2tfL

Somebody need to remind Andreessen that even if California does someday, somehow finish the project, the high-speed part still won’t reach Los Angeles or San Francisco.
BETTER DEAD THAN RUDE: Loyola newspaper apologizes for calling suspected murderer an ‘illegal immigrant.’
OPINION: Loyola newspaper editors want you to know they are sensitive to the feelings of illegal immigrants who are accused of murdering one of their peers
As the Loyola University Chicago community grieves over the ruthless murder of an 18-year-old freshman, the campus newspaper is focusing on not offending the suspected murderer.
On Monday, prosecutors charged Jose Medina-Medina with murdering freshman Sheridan Gorman. Medina, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela, allegedly killed Gorman while the student was hanging out with friends at a nearby beach early on the morning of March 19.
Campus newspaper The Phoenix originally reported on the charges with an Instagram post titled: “Immigrant Man Charged in Murder of Sheridan Gorman, DHS Involved.”
The original post also referred to Medina as an “illegal immigrant.”
However, facing backlash, the student newspaper edited the post to remove the term “illegal immigrant.” The newspaper refers to Medina as a “Rogers Park Resident,” referring to the Chicago neighborhood where Loyola’s main campus is located.

Hello Senator Thune,

You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process.
Here's how…

CYBERSECURITY: US regulator bans imports of new foreign-made routers, citing security concerns.
China is estimated to control at least 60% of the U.S. market for home routers, boxes that connect computers, phones, and smart devices to the internet.
The FCC order does not impact the import or use of existing models, but will ban new ones.
The agency said a White House-convened review deemed imported routers pose “a severe cybersecurity risk that could be leveraged to immediately and severely disrupt U.S. critical infrastructure.”
It said malicious actors had exploited security gaps in foreign-made routers “to attack households, disrupt networks, enable espionage, and facilitate intellectual property theft,” citing their role in major hacks like Volt and Salt Typhoon.
The determination includes an exemption for routers the Pentagon deems do not pose unacceptable risks.
Lawmakers have previously raised security concerns about Chinese-made routers and Representative John Moolenaar, the Republican chair of the House select committee on China, praised the FCC order.
This will be a problem until supply chains are sorted out.

TO BE FAIR, EVERYBODY SHOULD GIVE GAVIN THE FINGER: Chevron gives Gavin Newsom the middle finger with dramatic move that could help California drivers.
Oil giant Chevron will begin purchasing oil from Sable Offshore Corp., the Houston-based company announced Tuesday. The dramatic move comes amid a legal battle between California and the Trump administration.
The petroleum corporation plans to purchase an initial 20,000 barrels of oil per day from offshore platforms near Santa Barbara, just weeks after the federal government approved the restart of production, Bloomberg reported.
The move is a boost for Sable, which has faced strong environmental opposition to resuming operations in California waters.
“We’re going to run Sable’s crude at El Segundo in April,” Chevron executive Andy Walz told the outlet, adding that the Los Angeles-area refinery — which can process about 269,000 barrels per day — is set to handle the supply.
Sable announced on March 16 that it had restarted production at its Santa Barbara offshore platforms, sending oil through the region’s controversial pipeline for the first time since 2015.
The restart came after Donald Trump signed an executive order invoking the Defense Production Act, a Cold War-era law that allows the federal government to accelerate production of critical materials, including oil and gas.
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, we really can’t afford to lose any refining capacity. On the other, Californians deserve absolutely zero relief from the disasters they continue voting for.
