I covered Iraq and Afghanistan under two administrations and they lied about a lot but I’ve never seen this kind of withholding of major casualty information. And it comes on the heels of the defense secretary saying coverage of casualties makes Trump look bad.
Jennifer Jacobs@jenniferjjacobs.bsky.social · 5mo agoNEWS: An Iranian drone attack in Kuwait that killed US service members in the early hours of war was more severe than previously known. 30+ remained in hospitals yday.

I spent years as a reporter in Iraq and Afghanistan and I've seen first-hand that the death of a brutal dictator and the ousting of a cruel regime is only the beginning and the only certainty moving forward is uncertainty.
A well-known racist, antisemitic activist came to an Idaho Legislature committee hearing in brownface & a "Mexican" costume yesterday & the GOP chairman let him testify. Keep in mind, you're not even allowed to wear a political t-shirt to these hearings. Humiliating for my state.
Hey everyone, I'll be on Idaho Matters today, talking about an upcoming story for @revealnews.org on immigration and agriculture in Idaho and the GOP civil war some Trump policies are inflaming. www.boisestatepublicradio.org

Man, given the absolutely trash writing coming from Olivia Nuzzi and Ryan Lizza in their stupid (but wildly entertaining, I admit) spat, their editors deserve both a Pulitzer and a Medal of Freedom for what must have been the Herculean task of making them readable.
I guess we know that having an affair with Olivia Nuzzi won't get you elected president. Nuzzi has a right to make a living, but that doesn't mean she is owed a living in journalism. Shame on @vanityfair.com rewarding her awful ethics & shame on @nytimes.com for glamorizing her.
Vote! Vote vote vote! Democracy doesn’t democratize itself, as we’re certainly finding out.
