Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

Another restaurant owner stood up to ICE. She refused to let fear win. Her courage reminds us that ordinary people still hold the power to stop injustice in its tracks. When we speak up, we protect what’s right.

Turns out that the $16MM payoff ABC made to Trump bought them only a few months' reprieve. Weird how that happens.
Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

Trump orders his DOJ to investigate only Democrats mentioned in the Epstein Files. He then tells Rs to vote to release them.
My take on Trump's moves to gaslight Americans into thinking he wants it all out there & how the US Atty/SDNY is about to step in it big time.

"Reunion"
I didn’t cry at my mother’s funeral. I was fifteen at the time, and the ordeal of seeing her suffer for the last year of her life had left me emotionally paralyzed.
