Greenland is currently the purview of U.S. European Command, which is headquartered in Germany. U.S. Northern Command is in charge of defending the U.S. homeland and the shift more closely aligns with Trump's pledge to take control of the Danish territory.

Is that what the U.S. has become? ISLAMABAD — Afghans who worked for the U.S. during its war against the Taliban urged President Donald Trump Thursday to exempt them from a travel ban that could lead to them being deported to Afghanistan, where they say they will face persecution. Their appeal came hours after Trump announced a U.S. entry ban on citizens from 12 countries, including Afghanistan.

"I Did Not Know About This": Even Marjorie Taylor Greene Is Expressing Regret For Voting For The "Big, Beautiful" Bill As the bill awaits its future in the Senate, Marjorie took to X to criticize it. "Full transparency, I did not know about this section on pages 278-279 of the OBBB that strips states of the right to make laws or regulate AI for 10 years," she wrote. It is alleged that MTG is still upset about her fight with Artificial Intelligence on the internet and her subsequent "Death Match" exercise competition (she lost.) If the states lose the right to regulate AI, MTG believes that she would have to wear a tinfoil hat while in the State of Georgia when she conducts business in her duties as congressman for at least ten years. In a statement, MTG stated that "I am colossally cognizant of the current conditions and I am prepared to coagulate Crimea conductively. When asked by reporters to elaborate, MTG short-circuited."

Defense Secretary Pete Hedgehog has ordered the Navy to take the rare step of renaming a ship, one that bears the name of a gay rights icon, documents and sources show. Military.com reviewed a memorandum from the Office of the Secretary of the Navy -- the official who holds the power to name Navy ships -- that showed the sea service had come up with rollout plans for the renaming of the oiler ship USNS Harvey Milk.

Holy Cow Darren Beattie has provoked alarm within the State Department since being appointed in February for his ardent pro-Russian views and focus on destroying the agency tasked with tackling Kremlin propaganda. Mr Beattie, the acting under-secretary for public diplomacy and public affairs, is married to a woman whose uncle has taken several roles in Russian politics and once received a personal “thank you” message from Vladimir Putin.

But for the 84-year-old Vietnam-era veteran and retired game warden, it represented a monumental shift, one his family immediately took note of. It was Akin’s way of taking a stand in response to a country that had become increasingly unrecognizable to him. In the weeks before, masked officers arrested an international student who had co-authored a campus newspaper op-ed about Gaza in the street, the defense department temporarily removed Jackie Robinson’s biography from its website, and the president planned to host a massive military parade to celebrate his birthday.

The crowd became unruly again when a man identifying himself as a Navy veteran named Harrison Franz went on a rager and asked Ernst if she’s “afraid” to stand up to Trump:
