FOUR U.S. AIRCRAFT HIT IN A SINGLE DAY: F-15E down. A-10 hit. Two Blackhawks struck. And one pilot still missing.🙏

Yet just this week, Trump said: “They have no anti-aircraft equipment. Their radar is 100% annihilated.” #BlueSky #LawSky #PoliSky #war #iran

If Trump wasn't spending ~$1B a day on war in Iran & pushing a $1.5 trillion military budget, maybe he could actually invest in Americans. #BlueSky #MedSky #LawSky #PoliSky #Iran

Hegseth forces out Army’s top general, two other senior officers Gen. Randy George’s ouster is the latest clash between the Pentagon chief and the service’s senior leadership, and comes during the war in Iran.

It wasn’t just the Army’s top officer. Gen. David Hodne and Maj. Gen. William Green Jr. were pushed out too—right in the middle of a war. What do they not want to do?

BREAKING: Top U.S. Army general fired by Hegseth in the middle of a war—no explanation, just another purge. This is about demanding loyalists.

Democratic senators demand answers from Hegseth over reported defense investment inquiry ahead of Iran war "This would be a profound conflict of interest," the senators wrote to Hegseth.

JUST IN: Hegseth reportedly tried to buy defense stocks before the Iran war.

If true, that’s a massive conflict of interest—profiting off decisions that send troops into danger.

And we’re supposed to call that coincidence?

Senators want answers. Everyone should.
