State AG have a path forward to protect consumer choice in their states. Will they follow it?
One constraint: Paramount and its advisor, former Trump antitrust enforcer Makan Delrahim, are trying to speedrun the acquisition and catch state enforcers flatfooted. All the more reason for them to come out now with a vow to challenge it. From me: prospect.org/2026/02/19/t...

Alors que les discussions sur le programme iranien sont presque au point mort entre les États-Unis et l'Iran, l'armada américaine se déploie massivement au Moyen-Orient. Le bombardement de la République islamique pourrait être une simple question d'heures. France 24 fait le point sur une puissance de feu américaine inédite depuis la guerre en Irak.

The trend was most pronounced in North America, where anti-trans laws have been common.
The latest from our writer S. Baum.

Hopefully American soldiers haven't gone and done something illegal before then.
Trump officials say there's a 90% chance of strikes on Iran. He can’t without Congress.
Rep. Thomas Massie & I have a War Powers Resolution to debate & vote on war before putting U.S. troops in harm’s way. I will make a motion to discharge to force a vote on it next week.
