Republican Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas said he saw the survivors “trying to flip a boat loaded with drugs bound for United States back over so they could stay in the fight.” How could you flip over a boat that was just bombed by the U.S. Navy? If that were ever the case the Navy would needs to go back to the drawing board and build a better bomb.

Democrat accused of ‘seditious behavior’ fires back after CNN resurfaces video of Trump official

A US Navy aircraft carrier's hard evasive turn to avoid enemy missile fire caught crewmembers off guard and sent a $60 million F/A-18 Super Hornet rolling off the deck and into the Red Sea, an investigation into the fighter jet loss revealed.

A US Navy pilot whose jet was mistakenly shot down by an American warship over the Red Sea told investigators he saw his life flash before his eyes before ejecting from the doomed aircraft. The command investigation into the late December 2024 friendly fire incident, which Business Insider reviewed prior to its release on Thursday, reveals that the warship's crew mistook two Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jets for anti-ship cruise missiles fired by Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Norfolk Police denies ICE profiling claims in traffic stop; acknowledges video

I guess this also means to stay away from the Norfolk police if you are a Sailor... The video, shared Wednesday morning by Virginia Delegate Jackie Hope Glass on her social media page, shows a Navy sailor describing an incident involving someone in his command during what he says began as a window tint violation stop.

Admiral Alvin Holsey - A true hero. Thank you for your service to the U.S. Navy... Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth asked U.S. Navy Admiral Alvin Holsey to retire in October after Holsey expressed concerns about the legality of the Trump administration’s boat bombings in the Caribbean, according to a new report.

At least President Trump didn’t “kill all the lawyers” first, literally following Shakespeare’s words in “Henry VI, Part 2” on evading the rule of law. Instead, just a month into his second term in February, he and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth simply fired the top lawyers at the Army, Navy and Air Force, known as judge advocates general, or JAGs.

President Donald Trump has asserted executive privilege to prevent courtroom adversaries from accessing evidence in a long-running lawsuit that accuses him of stoking violence at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The Justice Department disclosed Trump’s secrecy claim Wednesday in a hearing related to that five-year-old lawsuit, brought by police officers injured while attempting to repel the violent mob that day. The officers say Trump’s incendiary remarks to a crowd of supporters — and his direction that they march on the Capitol — fueled the riot that nearly derailed the transfer of power from Trump to Joe Biden and left 140 officers injured.

Thanedar will unveil the articles of impeachment during a press conference on Thursday morning at Union Station.

DONALD TRUMP’S WAR ON IMMIGRANTS has crossed another line. First, he targeted illegal immigrants. Then he went after legal immigrants. Now, he’s attacking naturalized Americans: citizens of this country who were born elsewhere, particularly in what Trump contemptuously calls the “third world.” He’s trying to turn white Americans against nonwhite Americans

The U.S. military struck an alleged drug-trafficking boat in the Caribbean — at the center of a controversy involving Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth — four times during a Sept. 2 attack, according to a U.S. official who spoke to The Hill Wednesday morning on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive operations. The full attack killed 11 people on board the ship as part of an operation by the Trump administration against what it says are “narco-terrorists.”

The family of a Colombian fisherman who died in a U.S. military boat strike in September has filed a formal complaint with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights alleging the U.S. government illegally killed him. Alejandro Carranza was killed in a strike in the Caribbean on Sept. 15, according to the petition, filed on Tuesday.

A Pentagon watchdog has determined that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth risked the safety of U.S. servicemembers by sharing sensitive military information on the Signal messaging app, according to a source who has reviewed the forthcoming inspector general report.

The Justice Department has indicted a former Navy sailor and four others for allegedly leading an online extortion group that authorities say later helped spawn the global extremist network known as "764," which the FBI now describes as "modern day terrorism" for its sadistic and violent tormenting of teens online.

Raskin, in a letter to newly appointed CBS News ombudsperson Ken Weinstein that was shared exclusively with The Hill, blasted the network for what he said was the “improper influence President Donald Trump wielded over CBS News’s editorial decisions” in recent weeks, including during the interview that aired Nov. 2

Update: Reports suggest he was forced out after disagreements with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth regarding the legality and execution of lethal strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean. If so thank you Adm. Alvin Holsey for obeying lawful orders . You are a hero... The head of U.S. Southern Command, which is overseeing the Trump administration’s ongoing military strikes on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean, will retire just over one year into his tenure. Adm. Alvin Holsey assumed command in November 2024. The commanders of combatant commands typically serve in the role for three years.

Pete Hegseth Sends Cryptic Message to Admiral on Drug Boat Strike

Both trump and Hedgehog no nothing about troop moral. The words that come out of Hedgehog's mouth are only meant to make himself feel good. And now there is the first Navy victim of this lawless regime: Adm. Frank M. Bradley, who should have known better. Now that there are legal repercussions, his superiors (trump and Hedgehog) say they did not specifically order him to make that decision. In my opinion they absolutely did... On Thursday, Adm. Bradley will head to Capitol Hill for closed-door sessions with lawmakers, as Republicans and Democrats express concerns about the Trump administration’s campaign. And in ordering a second strike that killed two survivors who were clinging to the burning wreckage of the boat — something his superiors say they did not specifically order him to do — Admiral Bradley now finds himself in potential legal jeopardy. In other words, he was thrown under the bus.
