So, I Guess This Means The Speedboat Strikes Will Continue.

Trump administration officials told lawmakers on Capitol Hill that the U.S. does not have legal justification to support launching strikes inside Venezuela.

Top officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and an official from the White House Office of Legal Counsel, attended the classified briefing on Wednesday where they told lawmakers the U.S. is not currently planning to launch a land strike inside Venezuela, according to CNN.

This Should Be An Interesting Battle

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), a close ally of President Donald Trump, has announced a 2026 gubernatorial bid in her home state of New York...“Kathy Hochul is the Worst Governor in America,” Stefanik said in the post. “Under her failed leadership, New York is the most unaffordable state in the nation with the highest taxes, highest energy, utilities, rent, and grocery bills. When New Yorkers were looking for leadership from our Governor, she bent the knee to the raging Defund the Police, Tax Hiking Communist causing catastrophe for New York families.”

What's Next, Dr. Oz? Lebensborn Babies?
Dr. Oz was branded "sickening" after a comment he made about making more "Trump babies" as he announced a plan to lower the cost of fertility drugs.

"We've dropped [the price of] infertility drugs to make lots of Trump babies — I'm hoping by the midterms," the administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services said as he spoke during an Oval Office announcement regarding deals to lower the cost of weight-loss and other drugs.

Costa Rica Has Become the South Florida of the 1980s and 1990s

Drugs hide in fruit containers like bananas and pineapples, which speed through customs to avoid spoilage. Thousands of kilograms get seized each year in Costa Rica, and the country ranks fourth in cocaine interceptions in the Netherlands, behind Brazil, Ecuador, and Panama.

Since the 2019 opening of the Moín port in Limón province, Costa Rica’s involvement in Latin America’s drug routes has expanded. NOS reports that local gangs, drawn by the profits, have fueled conflicts that affect everyday people.

Violence has surged as a result. Homicides jumped 53 percent from 2020 to 2023, hitting a record 907 murders in 2023. This year, officials project over 900 killings again. Gangs target rivals in poor neighborhoods, where fights over territory spill into communities.
