"There were no injuries to the crew, who demonstrated resilience, grit, professionalism and unwavering steadiness in their response," Comer's statement to USNI News said.

What other choice did they have while stranded at sea in broiling temperatures with no galley services, toilets or air conditioning?

The Trump administration is turning our once-great Navy into a floating trailer park.

#2,

Exactly. And don't forget astronomical healthcare costs and tuition rates. We'll never see universal healthcare and free college here because it'd basically kill military recruitment rates.

What kind of ----- would make the women put on some kind of weird garb they'd never were in normal life when visiting religious figures?!?!

Being respectful of our neighbors in their religious spaces is now a bad thing?

More: In a 2-1 decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals sided with historic preservationists who sued to stop construction. The court said it would stay its own ruling for two weeks to allow the administration to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

"Whether or not a massive ballroom should be constructed is for Congress to decide and is not a matter for Executive self-help," the court wrote.

"This holding has nothing at all to do with whether the proposed ballroom is desirable, or not, as a matter of policy. This ruling does not even necessarily mean that the Defendants may not ultimately construct the ballroom.

"What it does mean," the court continued, "is that the Defendants may not do so during the district court's expeditious litigation without securing Congress's authorization, as the Constitution and laws require."

More: Creative Polymers partnered with Rhino Linings, a California-based company that made large quantities of polyurea coating at its factory in Texas. Rhino was also attractive because it made a coating in a shade called "American flag blue," and the patriotically named hue delighted Mr. Trump.

In turn, a sales manager at Rhino called Atlantic Industrial Coatings, a Virginia-based company that had never won a government contract, and enlisted its help with applying the coating, according to a statement on the company's website.

Put more simply: documents and interviews establish how a first-time contractor was paid millions of dollars to apply a novel solution designed by a golf club manager to a national landmark.

"It's like asking the museum guard to restore a painting in the Met," said Charles Birnbaum, the president of the Cultural Landscape Foundation, a nonprofit that has sued unsuccessfully to stop the work.

Neither Rhino Linings nor Mr. Schutzenhofer answered questions about their roles in setting up the Reflecting Pool repairs or in choosing Atlantic for the application.

More: Iran on Wednesday said it was finalizing an agreement on shipping routes with Oman, a U.S. ally that sits on the other side of the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian state media quoted the Foreign Ministry as saying that ships would enter through the strait's northern corridor near the Iranian coast and exit through the southern corridor near the Omani coast.

"I never thought leopards would eat MY face," sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party.

Completely divorced from reality.

More: President Trump on Wednesday filed an emergency motion to stop the British Broadcasting Corporation from gaining broad access to intimate details about his finances.

The emergency stay is the latest development in how Trump's $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC, triggered by a 2024 episode of Panorama titled "Trump, a Second Chance," is backfiring. Last month, U.S. Magistrate Judge Enjoliqu Lett allowed the BBC to move forward with gaining access to the financial information of at least 400 business entities owned by Trump's family trust. Lett set a Thursday deadline for the BBC to get hold of his financial records.

Now Trump is scrambling to stop what he started from blowing up in his face.

--

Trump's legal team is asking Lett to allow Trump to go back and change the language of the suit, so that his lucrative business dealings as president are not subject to public scrutiny.

The BBC has yet to respond.

More: Then one night last September, Ms. Kelver, 28, drew her gun after she had been pushed down in the street during a brief confrontation with three men in the college town of Laramie, according to police reports and surveillance video. Wyoming's "stand your ground" law is supposed to offer legal protections to gun owners who draw in self-defense, yet Ms. Kelver was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and possession of a deadly weapon with unlawful intent, charges that carry up to 15 years in prison.

Iran and Oman cutting Trump and his lackeys out of these negotiations altogether speaks volumes.

This money was stolen form everyday Americans who bought goods at inflated prices and then "refunded" to these companies after they passed their cost increases on to consumers. Perhaps the single largest theft in history. People should be outraged at this.

From the article: "If I was a victimizer in the Epstein files, my name would have been redacted," Adelman said. "Instead, I am an innocent and productive member of society, who has donated her time and body to NIH for research that will benefit millions of people " yet MY name and information is blasted to the national news."

That kind of says it all.

Not sure the win is official yet, but bravo to Dr. El Sayed if he does win. I expect lots of whining and calls for recounts from the Stevens camp.

NC has a similar law, it doesn't stop greedy business owners from charging a surcharge anyway. You can report them but nothing happens.

On which planet? This arrest just ups his street cred with MAGAts.

Also "Boy George pulls out of Jesus Christ" is the funniest thing I'll read all day.

Weird flex to almost rise back up out of obscurity just to piss off most of the people who might have been your fan base.

Are some of these to replace the BMWs the FBI bought for Kash?
