Nightly News Roundup for March 25, 2026

The Treasury published its own insolvency report and the press missed it entirely; America owes $136 trillion when you count the obligations the government keeps off the books, and federal accountants haven't been able to sign off on the numbers in 29 consecutive years; Iran told Trump the peace plan was excessive and Karoline Leavitt promised hell while the 82nd Airborne loaded up for a region where nobody is technically negotiating; a Los Angeles jury decided Mark Zuckerberg ran a knowing child-harm operation and he flew in personally to hear it; day 40 of the DHS shutdown has TSA running on fumes while both parties spent Tuesday calling each other's proposals fictional; the CDC has burned through three directors, lost a cop to a gunman at its own headquarters, had its vaccine schedule voided by a federal judge, and the White House missed the legal deadline to replace anyone; the United States voted against calling the slave trade a crime against humanity the same week the president complained slavery gets too much coverage at the Smithsonian; and Emily Gregory won the Mar-a-Lago statehouse seat by 2.4 points after Donald Trump campaigned hard, posted harder, and cast his ballot by mail. Tape rolls.
