Pentagon announces it has killed four men in another boat strike in Pacific | US military
The Pentagon announced on Thursday that the US military had conducted another deadly strike on a boat suspected of carrying illegal narcotics, killing four men in the eastern Pacific, as questions mount over the legality of the attacks. Video of the new strike was posted on social media by the US southern command, based in Florida, with a statement saying that, at the direction of Pete Hegseth, the defense secretary, “Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel in international waters operated by a Designated Terrorist Organization”.

ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday.
The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees.
Here’s my advice for ICEstapo:
Take a night off.
Go to the movies.
Watch “Nuremberg”.
Your time is coming.

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

Yass is also the guy with a huge stake in TikTok and was reportedly on the phone with Trump just before he pulled a 180 on banning the app.
MEANWHILE: Bari Weiss' "anti-woke" University of Austin just announced a $100 million donation from Jeff Yass, the Pennsylvania billionaire who recently funded the Gov. Greg Abbott's school voucher push in Texas. UAustin says they will no longer charge tuition or accept government money.

WOAH. Texas GOP Executive Director Jen Hall and another top party official just resigned. In her letter to party Chair Abraham George, Hall said she "cannot in good conscience continue to work this way" but doesn't elaborate. Hall and George are both longtime Tim Dunn allies. This is...interesting.
