@nbcnews.com putting "cartel" in the headline, without qualification, is journalistic malpractice.

The Trump administration has in recent weeks launched other strikes on boats allegedly connected to Venezuelan drug cartels, but until Thursday, there had been no survivors.

OK, I get that it's fun to poke the POTUS. By why would anyone expect that Trump could have got the prize this year?

It's a lengthy process, and nomination submissions have to be received by February 1.

This new Starship Troopers reboot is not very good.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

Rules of engagement is what protects our forces, and American civilians, as well

Just use the Trans-Canada Highway. We'd be cool with it.

Increasingly feels like Starship Troopers and Robocop are the ideal and possibly only reliable references for understanding America.

Leftist worldwide need to do better to distance themselves from obvious Russian agents. Russia doesn't give a shit about Palestine, the environment, feminism, or LGBTQ rights, however, if it sees an opening to take advantage of your anger it will take it.

Two issues with the UKCLA blog on the King’s reading of the throne speech in Canada:

a) It asks why the British Foreign Secretary didn’t accompany the King to Canada, since it was a state visit.

That’s because he was acting as King of Canada not the UK.

PM Mark Carney 🇨🇦 -
We're going to give every member of our Armed Forces a well-deserved pay raise.
They serve our country in difficult conditions and, all too often, with inadequate equipment.
They deserve better — and with our government, they will get better. #cdnpoli
