In a single day, seven tankers of the #shadow_fleet turned around to avoid being detained - #Pentagon
#Pentagon spokesman #Sean_Parnell reported that the blockade in the #Caribbean_Sea remains in effect and is proving highly effective.
"In the last 24 hours alone, at least seven oil tankers of the #shadow_fleet turned around to avoid being intercepted, because they know we're not joking," he wrote on #Twitter.
The New York Times, The Associated Press and the conservative television network Newsmax are among five outlets on Monday who say they won't sign a new Defense Department document about its new press rules. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's team has said that reporters who don't sign onto their new rules will be thrown out of the Pentagon on Wednesday if they don't agree. The new rules declare large swaths of the Pentagon off-limits to reporters and declares that journalists who report information not formally approved by Hegseth's team risk getting their access revoked. The Pentagon says the rules are “common sense.” Journalists say they punish routine newsgathering.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had an internet connection that bypassed the Pentagon’s security protocols set up in his office to use the Signal messaging app on a personal computer. That's according to two people familiar with the line who spoke to The Associated Press. Known as a “dirty" internet line by the IT industry, it connects directly to the public internet, where the user’s information and the websites accessed don't have the same security filters or protocols that the Pentagon’s secured connections maintain. The chief Pentagon spokesman said Hegseth "has never used and does not currently use Signal on his government computer.”
