Experts consider coast guard to be more effective and legally sound than military strikes against drug trafficking. By keeping suspects alive, coast guard can obtain vital intelligence to dismantle network, routes and cartels. However military strikes target low level traffickers who are easier to replace. Making strikes ineffective in the long term against drug trade.
Republican admits he lied about CNN
Former North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson admitted he lied about a bombshell CNN KFile investigation during the final months of his 2024 gubernatorial campaign, uncovering his extensive history of posting inflammatory and racist comments on a pornography website.
Robinson initially denied the report and sued CNN for $50 million that fall as he marched on with his gubernatorial campaign.
Italian voters reject judicial reform in a setback for right-wing Premier
ROME (AP) — Italian voters rejected a judicial reform backed by conservative Premier Giorgia Meloni, delivering a stinging setback to the right-wing government one year ahead of national elections.
The defeat of the referendum risks weakening Meloni’s leadership both at home and abroad. 
It may also complicate her efforts to defend her controversial alignment with U.S. [racist/felon/sex-offender in the Oval] and his increasingly unpopular war on Iran.
More pump price increase? 
CNN, London/New York —
An explosion and fire at a major refinery in Texas is sending gas and diesel futures sharply higher in Tuesday trading, adding to the upward pressure on both, caused by [the war trump started in Iran]
The explosion at the Valero facility in Port Arthur, Texas, occurred Monday and was still burning Tuesday morning.
Wholesale gasoline prices were up about 10 cents a gallon in morning trading Tuesday and diesel was up 16 cents a gallon, both due primarily to the incident at the refinery and not those in Iran, said Andy Lipow, president of consulting firm Lipow Oil Associates.
The Israeli military estimates it would need several more weeks of fighting to complete its war goals in Iran, at a time when President Pinocchio says the U.S. is negotiating an end to the war.
Sad to say I believe Iran regarding a stoppage & not my own country or one of our strongest allies.
They peddle bullshit & rarely called out by the media who fear retribution.
GUTLESS COWARDS!
Problem is a severe shortage of air traffic controllers nationwide leading to higher fatigue and safety risks. Chronic understaffing is worsened by government shutdowns and hiring freezes under Trump administration.
Unless there is some video or control tower calls that I have not heard or seen, this is 100% on the caller who sent the truck....always error on the side of safety first...although he tried to call multiple times to stop the truck, and those commands were either ignored or not heard, they should have never been put in that position in the first place from the tower who is controlling the operation....the control tower failed all of those people and put them in harms way...
Unfortunately true...

I'm saying we are supporting and forwarding a Zionist war agenda from Israel without approval or consent from the UN. Using your logic why is Israel not going against the bigger threats? Because the US wont support that and nobody is considering the loss in Lebanon with what is going on in Iran.
No I do not support Israel going to war against their enemies and doing so without going through peaceful channels first and without discussion with the UN. If Israel wants to make war with other countries in that area, the US should not be involved and that includes Iran as we BOTH know this "war" is not about nukes or human rights(that you forwarded multiple times) it is about supporting Israel and helping them take out their largest enemy who is as against them as Israel is in the same fashion. Why the US funds and supports war of any kind in that region is absurd, nothing positive will come from these actions and it is not worth the loss of life and spend to the citizens there and the US taxpayer.
A jury found both Meta and YouTube liable in a first-of-its-kind lawsuit that aimed to hold social media platforms responsible for harm to children using their services, awarding the plaintiff $3 million in damages.
The jury also decided each company's negligence was a substantial factor in causing harm to the plaintiff, a 20-year-old woman who says her use of social media as a child addicted her to the technology and exacerbated her mental health struggles.
The multimillion-dollar verdict will grow, as the jury decided the companies acted with malice, or highly egregious conduct, meaning they will hear new evidence shortly and head back into the deliberation room to decide on punitive damages.

Yeah show me where I have been a party supporter of Ukraine, go ahead point to my messages and make sure you have PLENTY of them to validate your retort. This is a religious take out hit by Israel, this is not Ukraine it is not Bosnia it is not any of your other poor comparisons. If you are worried about SPEND I have lots of responses for that because I could say this idiotic ball room, his golf junkets the lobster and ribeye spend the vehicles ICE purchased that arent being used..tons of solid spend issues if you want to try that ploy.
So as you say I support MY PARTY with Ukraine, where did that transpire?
"social media harm"
If Musk can be sued, any one can be sued. In the future, more countries are likely to regulate online contents. ESPN reports lawsuits against sportbooks for fostering gambling addiction. In the long term, 95% of sport gamblers are expected to lose money. For websites to reduce legal risks, buy insurance, be aware and audit contents to ensure compliance with rules.
The fraud just continues, although this one seemed pretty clear cut:
After a rare and dramatic public hearing, a special House Ethics subcommittee on Friday found Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., guilty of 25 ethics charges, capping a three-year investigation into allegations she stole millions in federal relief funds and funneled some of that to her congressional campaign.
Trump criticizes European allies for not helping fix the damage HIS war caused
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump entered his war of choice against Iran without consulting global allies, but as he weighs an exit from the conflict, he is making it clear that he is expecting the world to help him fix the unintended damage that HE has caused.
Trump is taking an increasingly annoyed tone toward Europe’s lack of support for the U.S.-Israeli war effort.
He also is giving short shrift to the fact that HIS decision contributed to disrupting the flow of oil to global markets
