A federal judge in DC rules that Kari Lake was not lawfully appointed and that actions she took as the claimed head of USAGM "shall have no force or effect," including last August's RIFs at the Voice of America.

Reporter: Did the US bomb an elementary school and kill 175 people?

Trump: Based on what I’ve seen, it was done by Iran.

Reporter: Is that true Mr. Hegseth?

Hegseth: We’re investigating.

Trump: They are very inaccurate with their munitions. It was done by Iran.

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.

Q: "Can you give us an idea of what unconditional surrender looks like?"

Trump: "It's where they cry uncle. Or when they can't fight any longer and there's nobody around to cry uncle β€” that could happen too."

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X

I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together.
This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

A lot of us veterans are not ok right now.

Do not EVER ask a veteran if they killed someone.

Do not ask us if we wish we could go fight again.

No human should experience war. Period.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.

They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
