Tricky, tricky.

But the judge is not fooled.

Federal judge finds #DefSec's team is violating his Mar 20 court order to restore access to journos w/rules expelling reporters from the Pentagon unless guided by escorts.

How naive can they get.

David Roehde on #11thHour characterizes #Hegseth's order to "Kill them all" in the latest #Caribbean small boat bombing as an attempt to intimidate drug runners.

Bullshit. It's about #DefSec doubling down on murder. But primarily getting rid of inconvenient witnesses.

More murders in the Caribbean.

We have a President and a #DefSec (#Hegseth) with a murder lust rivaling that of Jack The Ripper.
