How can the American people know what to believe anymore? They're supposed to be able to turn to the New York Times and other legacy newspapers for impartial facts. Although that aspirational view was never as true as many of us supposed it to be, it's become scandalously untrue today. The Times this week played host to one of the most astonishing examples of journalistic malpractice in recent memory. It was perpetrated by Nicholas Kristof " a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist turned progressive columnist and aspiring Democratic politician. Hiding under the cloak of the Times' opinion section, Kristof ran a report alleging shocking and lurid claims of widespread, systemic sexual assault by Israeli prison guards against Palestinians. This would be horrifying if true, except we have little reason to believe it is
Rather than ushering in a "Golden Age," President Donald Trump's tariffs and his war with Iran seem to have played a significant role in killing a North Carolina tire factory. The Goodyear Rubber and Tire Co. announced this week that it would be shuttering its Fayetteville, North Carolina, plant that currently employs more than 1,700 workers. The decision to close the plant was made to "strengthen Goodyear's ability to compete in today's marketplace and support the longterm health of the business," a company executive told City View, a Fayetteville-based news and lifestyle magazine. Translating that P.R.-speak is a bit easier when you look at what company executives have been telling investors. Goodyear lost $249 million during the first three months of the year"after earning a $115 million profit during the same three months last year, just prior to Trump's tariffs being announced.
President Donald Trump returned home from China to a politically-fraught domestic policy challenge that has vexed top aides for months: sky-high beef prices. The White House must now decide how to proceed with an executive order to temporarily ease tariffs on imported beef " a move that was delayed earlier this week amid intense backlash from farm-state lawmakers and industry allies. The executive order could help lower prices for consumers, though by how much remains uncertain. Doing so would simultaneously drive up competition for American ranchers as they face a host of higher costs brought on, in part, by the Iran war.
The US government has misspent almost $3 trillion since 2003, leading government auditors to make a fresh call for a federal data analytics centre " a proposal first suggested in 2022.

Kash Patel can't stop living the good life. The FBI director reportedly went on a VIP snorkeling trip while on a visit to Hawaii last summer that the bureau stressed was not a vacation. Patel was officially in the state to tour the FBI's Honolulu branch and meet with local law enforcement, or at least that's what the bureau's news releases said. But the Associated Press obtained government emails showing that Patel took part in the snorkeling excursion, coordinated by the military, near the USS Arizona, which was sunk in the World War II attack on Pearl Harbor. That wasn't mentioned in the bureau's public releases, nor was Patel's return to Hawaii for two days after initially visiting the state. Read more

Internal Pentagon Report Reveals Hegseth Is Willfully Putting Civilians in Danger
A damning Department of War report finds that the Pentagon didn't fully implement any required civilian harm mitigation measures.
The Pentagon's top watchdog says cuts to civilian harm mitigation and response efforts have been so severe under War Secretary Pete Hegseth that the United States cannot adequately protect civilians in conflict zones.
Thursday's scathing analysis by the Department of War's inspector general came on the same day that the top U.S. commander overseeing the war in Iran dismissed reports of civilian casualties and said the U.S. had no means to corroborate reports of strikes on hospitals and schools.
The inspector general specifically notes that the military stopped funding a database that tracks civilian harm that could be used for such verification.
