In Other Words, trump is Lying Again... National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard fired two senior officials at the National Intelligence Council after it released a report concluding the Venezuelan government is unlikely to be directing the activities of Tren de Aragua, in sharp contrast to President Donald Trump’s countless claims to the contrary.

I step off the elevator on the ninth floor of Milwaukee’s Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center. It’s where the long-term and palliative care units are located. The nurses often give me tips about patients who might want to tell their stories. I find one—a Navy veteran—and introduce myself. There’s a stuffed animal on the bed table. A turtle. “I love turtles,” I say. He lights up and responds: “Then I love you!”

After a review of dash cam footage from the traffic stop on May 5, “it was determined that Ms. Arias-Cristobal’s vehicle appeared similar to the offending vehicle but was not the vehicle that made an improper turn,” according to a statement from the Dalton Police Department. When police in Dalton, Georgia pulled over Ximena Arias-Cristobal, officers accused the 19-year-old college student of making an illegal right turn at a red light. She told officers she didn’t have her international driver’s license on her, according to a police report, and she was taken into custody. Then she was moved to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center roughly four hours away, and now she faces the possibility of being removed from the country along with her family.

High in the mountains of Northern Laos, nestled in the Plain of Jars, rests the small village of Laht Saen. Its residents are mostly farmers growing rubber trees, peppers, some pigs, chickens, and small quantities of rice. Like so many other villagers in Laos, the people there live in a constant state of suspense. At any moment, the ground beneath their feet could explode.

CFL/ACFLs, For all ACFL account creation requests, the submission must come directly from the CFL to askmncc.fct@navy.mil. The required ACFL Designation letter and SAAR Form must indicate the primary UIC of responsibility and any additional UICs in block 13 that the ACFL will be supporting with the CFL. Upon receiving the required documents from the CFL, MyNavy HR Tier-1 will elevate the case to Tier-2 for account creation in eCRM/Salesforce. Tier-2 will respond directly to the CFL once the ACFL account has been created.

Corrupt “I could be a stupid person and say no, we don’t want a free plane,” said the president of the United States about the Boeing 747-8 which the royal family that rules Qatar has offered as a gift. There are obviously ethical, legal and constitutional issues — to say nothing of security concerns — with President Donald Trump’s willingness to accept a $400 million donation from a Middle East petrostate with tens of billions of dollars of business interests in the United States. (It’s also more than a bit hypocritical, given that Trump leads the party still obsessed with Hunter Biden’s comparatively low-stakes shady overseas business dealings.) Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., put it concisely in a post on X: “Not only is this farcically corrupt, it is blatantly unconstitutional. Congress must not allow this over-the-top kleptocracy to proceed.”

The Trump administration spent at least $21 million transporting migrants to Guantanamo Bay on military aircraft between January 20 and April 8, according to figures provided to Congress by the U.S. military. The naval base there currently holds 32 migrants, according to a defense official, a tiny fraction of the 30,000 that President Donald Trump promised. Guantanamo has held a total of just under 500 migrants since Trump announced the effort in January, and it has never held more than 200 at any one time. Many of the migrants flown there are believed to have been flown back to the U.S.

Fraud WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump reportedly is ready to accept a luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet as a gift from the ruling family of Qatar during his trip to the Middle East this coming week, and U.S. officials say it could be converted into a potential presidential aircraft. The Qatari government acknowledged discussions between the two countries about “the possible transfer” of a plane to be used temporarily as Trump’s Air Force One, but denied that the jet “is being gifted” or that a final decision had been made.
