If this reporting is accurate, Secretary Hegseth ordered a murder and must be held accountable. This is probably why he is so concerned about Senator Kelly and my colleagues’ warning about illegal orders.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

In our non-DEI meritocracy, Larry Ellison's son bought CBS so that Bari Weiss could then put her sister on air.
Update: Suzy Weiss, sister of Bari, did appear on CBS today to talk about her new article in The Free Press. Second Free Press writer on CBS airwaves this week. Last week, Bari Weiss called this moment a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity” for The Free Press "to help reshape" CBS.

Donald Trump has time to free serial fraudster George Santos from prison. But he can’t be bothered to address the Republican healthcare crisis crushing working class Americans. The extremists are insulting you every single day.

THIS is how to treat propagandists. Cut them off. Interrupt. Disrupt. Shut down. Remember, propaganda is not information. It's information warfare—a psych assault. Republicans are practiced at it. Media has to do this & much more to help Americans build sorely needed resilience.
