- Megyn Kelly Complains Trump Isn’t Prolonging Deaths of Alleged Drug Traffickers: ‘I’d Really L...
Megyn Kelly defended the Caribbean boat strikes ordered by President Donald Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, not only calling the criticism “manufactured” but also complaining that the passengers on the boats were being killed too quickly and she would prefer to “see them suffer.” The Trump administration has been facing increasing scrutiny for the strikes on boats they have said were carrying “narco-terrorists,” especially after recent reporting of a second strike being ordered on survivors after an initial strike has led to growing accusations that these strikes are war crimes or otherwise illegal. Kelly discussed the controversy on the latest episode of The Megyn Kelly Show during an interview with Mark Halperin (relevant section begins around the 36 minute mark). After mentioning that Hegseth had denied that he personally ordered the second strike so “that may get Hegseth off the hook,” Kelly said that to her, it… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Jesse Watters Asks Trump’s Border Czar if He’s ‘Worried’ About Being ProsecutedFox News host Jesse Watters asked Trump administration border czar Tom Homan on Monday about the possibility of being prosecuted under a Democratic president. Homan has overseen an aggressive deportation regime, under which both violent and nonviolent undocumented immigrants have been arrested. U.S. citizens have been scooped up in immigration raids as well, only to be released later after proving their citizenship. The sometimes violent raids are typically carried out by masked, badgeless agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol. Homan appeared on Monday’s Jesse Watters Primetime, where the host noted that some Democrats have accused Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth of war crimes over the Pentagon’s boat bombings in the Caribbean, including a second strike on an alleged drug-trafficking boat to kill survivors. “They wanna after Hegseth for war crimes,” Watters told Homan. “Now, they’re potentially targeting rank-and-file soldiers for just obeying orders. Are you… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
- IRS Agents to Review OnlyFans Content to Determine if It’s ‘Pornographic’
Jen Golbeck/SOPA Images/Sipa USA via AP Images Some IRS agents won’t have to worry about getting in trouble for watching porn at work, because part of their job duties will literally involve reviewing content on OnlyFans and other online creators. The issue, according to a report by Andrew Duehren at The New York Times, is the interpretation of a restriction on the “no tax on tips” deduction passed as part of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” Act that says that tips earned for prostitution or “pornographic activity” are not eligible. The legislation didn’t offer much additional guidance, and the IRS has yet to issue any statements clarifying what exactly constitutes “pornographic activity,” leaving the taxing agency in a similar boat as Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart when he endeavored to define “obscenity” in the 1964 case of Jacobellis v. Ohio: “I know it when I see it.” And apparently, the… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.4 hours ago - ‘Franklin the Turtle’ Publisher Condemns Hegseth’s ‘Violent’ and ‘Unauthorized Use’ of...
AP Photo/Mark Schiefelbein The publisher of the children’s book series Franklin the Turtle did not appreciate Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth featuring their reptilian mascot in a meme he posted, issuing a statement condemning the “violent” and “unauthorized use” of the character. Hegseth has been facing increasing scrutiny for strikes on boats in the Caribbean that the Trump administration has said were “narco-terrorists,” especially after recent reporting of a second strike being ordered on survivors after an initial strike. Over the weekend, Hegseth tweeted a meme that parodied the Franklin books with an image of the turtle in a helicopter firing a rocket-propelled grenade at men in boats with the title “Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists.” Screenshot via X. Hegseth’s post incited swift backlash online, with numerous commentators blasting him for making light of a serious topic and for seeming to celebrate actions that are being accused of being war crimes.… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.4 hours ago - Hegseth Throws Admiral Under the Bus, Says Navy Leader Ordered Boat Survivors Killed
AP Photo/Kevin Wolf Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth made clear that he believes Admiral Frank “Mitch” Bradley is the man responsible for a U.S. attack on the survivors of a boat bombing in the Caribbean. On Sept. 2, the U.S. bombed an alleged drug boat off the coast of Trinidad. According to The Washington Post, Hegseth ordered everyone aboard killed, according to sources familiar with the situation. After the first strike, which was conducted by the Navy, two survivors remained, clinging to the wreckage. Heeding Hegseth’s directive, the Post said Bradly deemed the survivors valid targets and ordered that Hegseth’s directive be carried out. The Navy conducted a second strike and killed the survivors. Legal experts have said the killing of such survivors is illegal under U.S. and international law. Moreover, the broader boat bombing campaign of alleged drug vessels in the Caribbean and the Pacific is legally suspect. On Monday… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.5 hours ago - ‘WE DON’T WANT THEM’: Kristi Noem Urges Trump To Issue ‘Travel Ban on Every Damn Country Tha...
AP Photo/Ronda Churchill U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem urged President Donald Trump to issue a full travel ban on “every damn country that’s been flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies,” Monday. “I just met with the President,” announced Noem in a social media post. “I am recommending a full travel ban on every damn country that’s been flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies.” She continued, “Our forefathers built this nation on blood, sweat, and the unyielding love of freedom—not for foreign invaders to slaughter our heroes, suck dry our hard-earned tax dollars, or snatch the benefits owed to AMERICANS. WE DON’T WANT THEM. NOT ONE.” I just met with the President. I am recommending a full travel ban on every damn country that's been flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies. Our forefathers built this nation… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.6 hours ago
