Rand Paul: "Hegseth said he had no knowledge of this and it did not happen, it was fake news... And then the next day, from the podium at the white house, they're saying it did happen. So either he was lying to us on Sunday or he's incompetent"

The Admiral was thrown under the bus in seconds. Rules of engagement are sacred, and everyone knows it, which is why the truth about what Pete did leaked. Pete and Trump are no leaders. And they are not judge, jury, or executioner. Those poor fishermen.

A bit context: Ukraine is a free country with a functioning democracy, the anti-corruption agency targeting Zelenskyy and those around him is called NABU which at times acts as the unofficial spearhead for the FBI, recently their leadership got caught working for Russia and it was restructured.

The “corruption scandal” Ukraine story is being pushed by the United States to help Russia, the objective is to pressure Zelenskyy into surrendering; ultimately Trump and his criminals have negotiated lucrative land deals with Russia and want to grab Ukrainian territory too.

If a bunch of major retailers joined together to do the same, we could see real, and immediate action on the tariffs.

So, to recap:
Washington Post story breaks on Hegseth.
Pentagon says fake news.
White House confirms the story roughly 12 hours later - and defends it.
Press Sec confirms that Hegseth personally ordered the execution of the two stranded men.
This isn’t going well.

she did not answer the question because she cannot. There is NO justification for this
Reporter: You said that that second strike was in full accordance with the law of armed conflict but the Navy's own manual of law of war says that specifically firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime that's forbidden under U.S. Law and the law of armed conflict…

New Yorkers kept telling me the same thing: they’re thinking of leaving because they can’t afford to raise their kids here. Universal childcare isn’t just a promise — it’s how we make this a city for everyone.
