[[[ IT'S OFFICIAL...MISTRIAL in the Lindsay Clancy case...as.the lone holdout...a man...NEVER caved and refused to do so! Kudos to him for standing strong. Retrial motions are now set to begin on September 29th with some legal experts predicting that the prosecution might offer this child murdering peace of human garbage a deal involving manslaughter instead of first degree murder. If that be the case then our judicial system is sadly and truly broken as no real justice would be served in the children's name.
 
Personally,  I NEVER bought into Lindsay Clancy's post-partum or mental issues nonsense. Why so...because I believe this was actually a simple cut-and-dry case where the husband wanted out of the marriage and to take the children with him. And so Clancy planned her revenge well...revenge as in to viciously and deliberately murder the three children so that her husband would never see them again if he dared to walk out on her. 
 
Just my opinion, but it's the only thing that seems to successfully put all the sad puzzle pieces together. ]]]

Iran down to 2 months of fuel supply as brutal US sanctions take their toll
Chris Nesi / NEW YORK POST 

Iran is facing a potential economic disaster as the besieged Islamic Republic’s fuel reserves have dwindled to a paltry two-month supply, following months of punishing US bombing campaigns and a fresh wave of crippling economic sanctions.

The US unleashed a barrage of secondary sanctions in recent weeks to choke off Iran’s supply of cash, restricting the rogue nation’s access to international financing networks and even blockading its oil exports.

This is preventing Iran from doing everything from buying goods to securing foreign currency, and even forcing it to import gasoline because its refinery infrastructure has been decimated and there’s no money to fix it, three senior Iranian sources told Reuters.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent last month unveiled “Operation Economic Outcast” — a plan to to “collapse the regime” by implementing the “toughest sanctions in US history,” which he likened to an “economic D-Day” in Iran. Read more, see video and photos here.

Lindsay Clancy murder trial officially ends in mistrial after lawyer’s Hail Mary appeal denied
Vu Chau / NEW YORK POST 

PLYMOUTH, Mass. – Lindsay Clancy’s high-profile murder trial ended in mistrial Friday – despite her lawyer’s desperate 11th-hour bid to block the outcome.

Plymouth Judge William Sullivan earlier Friday announced he didn’t “have any choice but to declare a mistrial” after the jury sent out a third deadlock note.

“It is with a heavy heart that we will not be able to come to a unanimous decision,” Sullivan said, reading the panel’s third note this week indicating their imp

But Clancy’s criminal defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, asked the judge to hold off making the call so he could file an emergency appeal to block the decision.

Sullivan reluctantly gave the lawyer just one hour for the Hail Mary legal maneuver – but Reddington was ultimately unsuccessful.

The jurors were hopelessly deadlocked on whether to convict the 36-year-old mother of fatally strangling her kids, Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, on Jan. 24, 2023.

[[[ Serious question folks...with all the 'gasps' over putting "boots on the ground" in Iran...especially with Trump and his 'brigade' NOT wanting to do so...the fact is that any modern day war we've fought in and WON...with "WON" being the operative word...has been WON because we had "boots on the ground." 
 
If we don't want American "boots on the ground"...and our all-volunteer army knows when they sign up what that entails...as in possibly having to fight in a war...then why do we have an ARMY at all if they are stopped from doing what they were trained to do.
 
War is a dirty business and some ground soldiers will unfortunately get killed...so the only logical answer is DON'T GO TO WAR UNLESS YOU ARE 100% IN IT TO WIN! And don't pretend to be a good wartime president when the single country you are at war with still has NOT surrendered to us...the world's NUMBER ONE SUPER POWER! My thought and I stand by it. ]]]

Sources said the military presence is intended to preserve President Donald Trump's ability to choose between continued economic pressure, limited military operations, and broader escalation.
Shir Perets / JERUSALEM POST 

The US military is extending deployments across the Middle East as the Trump administration prepares for the possibility that its conflict with Iran could continue well into 2027, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, citing sources familiar with the matter.

At the same time, US officials told the WSJ that US President Donald Trump has privately discussed with senior aides whether he should declare the Iran war over, arguing that sustained economic pressure could eventually compel Tehran to dismantle its nuclear program or bring about the collapse of the regime.

“I like our position now much better, with almost total control of the Hormuz Strait, and their economy totally collapsing,” Trump wrote on social media.

What Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth originally presented as a short, decisive military effort has grown exponentially, with Washington now maintaining about 50,000 troops in the region, along with 19 warships, fighter squadrons, air-defense units, and paratroopers, according to the report.

[[[ So as U.S. bombs once again rein down on Iran, Trump keeps urging the "Iranian citizens" to "rise up." But what he oh so conveniently forgets is how can they "rise up" without weapons. The "Iranian citizens" are still waiting for your long ago promised "help is on the way"...so where the hell is that help is what I and so many others want to know. Talk of promises is cheap...talk with actions is what's needed...as in guns and other weapons...which for whatever reason Trump doesn't seem to want to deliver even as executions of the "Freedom Fighters" continue on. How sad and hypocritical is that. ]]]

9/11 terrorists keep dodging justice — as lefty allies wage ‘legal jihad’
Betsy McCaughey / NEW YORK POST  

A quarter-century after 9/11, the attack’s evil mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, still hasn’t been tried and sentenced to death — because America’s own justice system has been turned against us. 

Blame the American Civil Liberties Union, in large part, for this travesty.

The ACLU intervened at the start, insisting that the two military lawyers assigned to defend Mohammed and his co-defendants “might not have death penalty experience” and were unprepared to battle “the full force of the US government.”

Ever since, this team has been waging legal jihad — and it’s still getting away with it.  

The terrorists’ lawyers have strung out the military court proceedings at Guantanamo Bay, objecting that the defendants weren’t read their rights and were wrongly subjected to CIA waterboarding and other torture.

The real torture victims are the 9/11 families, still waiting for justice and closure.

Dramatic video shows US strikes raining on Iran as Trump touts American might, urges citizens to ‘rise up’
Emily Goodin / NEW YORK POST

WASHINGTON — A dramatic new video shows US missiles launching into the night sky and raining down on a series of targets in Iran as President Trump touted American might.

Hostilities have flared once again in the six-month war. The latest round of US attacks killed 18 people, including guests at a wedding, according to Iranian media.

U.S. Central Command released the minute-long video along with a statement saying the latest round of strikes has been completed. 

All the targets were military, Central Command said, “including air defense sites, radar systems, maritime assets and facilities, mine laying capabilities, and communications sites.”

Ceasefire talks appear to be at a standstill. 

There have been no official meetings between Iranian and US officials recently and Trump showed no signs of pushing for another round of negotiations.

Now It's on the Record: House Votes to Condemn Socialism; 192 Democrats Vote No
Ben Smith / RedState  

The House voted Tuesday to condemn socialism "in all its forms," with every Republican voting yes and 192 Democrats voting no. The final vote on H.Res. 1490 was 220-192, with eight Democrats crossing the aisle and two voting present. H.Res. 1490 also backs the SAVE America Act and states that only American citizens should vote in American elections.

Republican Rep. Jeff Crank of Colorado (CO-05) introduced the resolution Aug. 27. The text condemns the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) by name and cites the DSA’s support for noncitizen voting, abolishing the U.S. Senate, and replacing the two-party system. 

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (LA-01) made the connection explicit:

"Not only do we denounce socialism, but also the idea of people that aren't American citizens voting in our elections, because that's part of their platform."

The vote nearly didn't happen. Five Republican hardliners, Reps. Pete...Read more here.

Trump says 'I like our position' after US trades strikes with Iran for first time in a month
The U.S. and Iran have spent the previous three days trading strikes, marking the end of roughly a month of relative calm during which the White House had sought to focus almost exclusively on economic pressure. Despite the flareup, President Donald Trump said Tuesday that "I like our position much better now." 
Covered by: James Cirrone and Sophia Compton / FOX NEWS

WHAT TO KNOW

  • U.S. Central Command said Tuesday that American forces completed a wave of strikes against targets inside Iran, including air defense sites, radar systems, maritime assets, mine-laying capabilities and communications sites.

  • President Donald Trump said he is not trying to bring Iran to the negotiating table with the attacks, which ended a monthlong period of relative calm in the region.

  • Brent crude oil has jumped nearly 6% since Iran attacked U.S. bases in Jordan on Sunday. The commodity is now trading at around $95 per barrel.

  • A U.S. official told Fox News that the latest Iranian attacks did not cause any major damage to American bases in the Middle East. Read LIVE UPDATES here.

[[[ I’m beginning to think that Trump has deliberately switched this war to a war over controlling the world’s oil supply, and that’s NOT what we went to war for. 
 
Also, NO one country should ever control or even try to control the sum of the world's oil supply, because if that were to happen we would become a "One World Government" under that controller's thumb, whomever that controller might be. NOT a good idea folks, NOT good at all. ]]]

[[[ So with President Trump already having ruled out using a nuclear weapon on Iran because, "the country's military has been defeated. They're totally defeated militarily."...even though to one degree or another Iran is still fighting back and will continue to do so as Islam itself demands it...Trump has now seriously started to talk about bombing Kharg Island, Iran's main oil export terminal, which we would then control after said bombing.

How convenient in timing, PR wise that is, especially after also having been revealed not too long ago that an Iranian uranium facility located at the Natanz nuclear compound, for whatever reason, was not bombed when Natanz was. Not very good optics for our side I'd say.

So now conveniently entering center stage is Trump's neutralizing optic of his just having made a 100-year oil deal with Venezuela. No problem with that...it's a good thing actually...but when you add 2+2 together you still get "oil"...NOT victory in war, NOT peace...but "oil,"

"Oil talk here, oil talk there, oil talk everywhere,"  but NO talk of us ending the war in victory...NO talk of surrendering by Iran...NO anything it seems, because the quest for oil control seems to have taken center stage over war itself...how truly sad is that. ]]]

New report exposes intact Iranian bunker that may hide regime's ongoing nuclear work
The Institute for Science and International Security says 'The facility does not appear to have been targeted in the military actions of either 2025 or 2026'
/ Fox News 

A new report from a leading think tank has revealed what it says is a partially submerged Iranian uranium facility at the Natanz nuclear compound in Iran.

The revelation of the secretive facility raises new concerns over whether Iran’s nuclear weapons apparatus was destroyed during the two American-Israeli-launched wars against the regime in 2025 and 2026.

The Washington, D.C.-based Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS) announced in late August that it has located an underground Iranian facility that is likely linked to uranium enrichment for the possible use in production of atomic weapons.

It wrote that "The facility does not appear to have been targeted in the military actions of either 2025 or 2026. Since the June 2025 war, no vehicle activity has been observed at the facility in available satellite imagery."

According to the institute, "The Institute has identified a separately enclosed, partially below-ground, bunkered building at the Natanz Nuclear Complex that was likely intended to serve as uranium hexafluoride…storage...Read more, see photos and video here

Trump warns Chicago ‘will die’ if lefty Gov. Pritzker refuses federal help after bloody weekend leaves 41 shot 
Chris Bradford / NEW YORK POST  

President Trump warned Tuesday that Chicago “will die” if Illinois governor JB Pritzker continues to refuse federal government help to get crime under control – as the lefty pol joined revelers in downing shots for a world record attempt despite a weekend of bloodshed that saw 41 people shot.

Fifteen people were struck in what was Chicago’s largest mass shooting of the year on Saturday, bringing the city’s 2026 gun violence tally to 1,255 victims, which is up by almost one percent on last year.

“Chicago violence is unchecked and at record levels. It has never been worse,” Trump blasted in a fiery Truth Social tirade before warning Chicago faces ominous consequences if trends are not bucked.

“This weekend 41 people were shot, 3 DEAD. These numbers are becoming normalized. It is out of control!

“The city will die if the Federal Government, a fine tuned crime fighting machine, is not invited in, by the Mayor or Governor to HELP. I am awaiting the call.” Read more, and see video here.

Trump: US Will Refill Strategic Petroleum Reserve Using Venezuelan Oil
Thomson / Reuters / NEWSMAX
 
President ‌Donald Trump said on Sunday that oil from a recently struck deal with Venezuela will be used to replenish the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, ‌which has been drawn down sharply ​in recent years to respond to global supply disruptions and high fuel ⁠prices.
 
Trump said in a social media ​post that the "topping out" process will begin shortly, ⁠describing Venezuelan oil as a “Gift from Venezuela to the People of the United States.” 
 
It ‌is unclear how quickly the ​Venezuela deal could ‌provide oil for the reserve or deliver any near-term ‌benefit to U.S. motorists. The agreement Trump announced on Friday is aimed at reviving Venezuela's ⁠battered oil industry, ‌but it will ⁠require significant investment and infrastructure work before production can ⁠rise ⁠substantially.

The reserve held about 290 million barrels as of ‌August 21, near a 44-year low, after the United States drew down its stockpile under both ‌the ​Biden and Trump ‌administrations in response to global supply disruptions, including Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ​conflict with Iran.

US launches first strikes on Iran in weeks as regime vows revenge
Ronny Reyes / NEW YORK POST 

The US launched strikes on Iran’s Larak Island on Sunday, the first offensive in weeks — as the regime vowed revenge.

The US fired the attack after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps were allegedly setting up another wave of underwater mines in the Strait of Hormuz, Axios reported. 

“Earlier today U.S. forces struck two Iranian launchers on Larak Island,” a US official told the outlet. “Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces were observed preparing to launch rockets with sea mines into Strait of Hormuz.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps confirmed the attack that reportedly killed and wounded several people, but did not provide further details.

The attack “will be answered by the sons of Iran and will result in the punishment of the aggressor,” the IRGC told state broadcasters.

[[[ Five years ago today we withdrew from Afghanistan in what was in actuality a defeat. Five years from today I hope we’re not facing the same scenario with Iran, which could be a possibility. Why so...because not since WWII has a president's what should be focus to win a war actually been put on the “back burner” while forgetting that ”bombs that go “boom” does not make a war won.

The Korean War, aka“a police action,” still sees Korea divided in two. The Vietnam War saw us hightailing it out of there in 1975 after the fall of Saigon. And our 20-year involvement in Afghanistan saw Biden hastily pulling us out after the Taliban re-seized control of Afghan's government. And to add insult to our injury, Biden forced us to leave behind U.S.military equipment which is now in the hands of the Taliban. But saddest of all is that in the action of withdrawing 13 U.S. service members were killed due to Biden's ineptitude.

So it should not be all that surprising that we have yet to achieve true victory in Iran, especially when our president now seems to be more focused on becoming “king and controller” of all the world's oil supplies then he is on fighting to win this rightful war being fought as he'd rather make deals with the enemy than actually using militarily force to get them to surrender,

And so with Trump's ego puffed up courtesy of his Venezuelan oil win, we could well see Iran becoming both Vietnam and Afghanistan revisited with the Iranian people now sadly being his sacrificial lamb. ]]]

Relocation of US arms from Europe may expose vulnerabilities in US global military posture - report
Some officials described the situation as “beyond critical,” with arms moved to the Middle East from stockpiles in Europe and Asia creating shortages that could take years to replenish.
JERUSALEM POST STAFF  

Military planners in Washington worry that dwindling munitions stores may reduce the US’s ability to defend against potential threats from Russia and China, according to a Friday Wall Street Journal report citing US officials familiar with the matter.

While the officials noted that Western military officials have assessed that full-scale attacks from Russia and China are not imminent, they told the WSJ that insufficient weapons stockpiles have left vulnerabilities in the US’s global military posture.

Some officials described the situation as “beyond critical,” with arms moved to the Middle East from stockpiles in Europe and Asia creating shortages that could take years to replenish.

Administration officials have reportedly assessed that due to weapons being moved out of Asia for use in the war with Iran, the US may not be able to fully carry out contingency plans to defend Taiwan in case of a Chinese invasion. Read more here. 

Death and destruction Russian attack hits Ukraine’s Kyiv region, killing at least 27 people as war rages

Associated Press / NEW YORK POST 

At least 27 people have been killed following a Russian attack on the Bucha district, close to the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, officials said Saturday.

Tymur Tkachenko, head of the local regional military administration, said that at least 50 residential buildings had been damaged in the attack, which also sparked a large-scale fire that spread to homes and a restaurant.

In a statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that a warehouse had been struck in the village of Myla “followed by a detonation.”

He did not give details on the site, but wrote in the same message that criminal proceedings had been opened on charges of official negligence.

“There are regulations in place — ammunition cannot be stored near homes or other residential areas,” Zelensky said.

The Ukrainian leader wrote that a care home for elderly people and people with disabilities and residential buildings were damaged. Read more, and see photos here.

[[[ In this time of war with Iran we now also find ourselves at war with our northern neighbor Canada...a Trump initiated tariff based war of sorts now having morphed into a nasty economic PR war...with both countries acting like a 2-year old in the midst of a temper tantrum. One one side is President Trump and his silly "Lake Ontario" name changing game vs the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) now telling its staff NOT to refer to "9/11" as a “terrorist attack” during what will be their upcoming coverage of the "25th Anniversary of "9/11"...the very event that literally woke the world up from what was its deep sleep of complacency. 
 
What President Trump did with his "Lake America" theatrics was uncalled for, calculatingly done to be divisive, yet at the same time being silly at best. However, what Canada's CBC has now done...especially after having told its staff the same thing after the "October 7, 2023" happenings in Israel...should show us and the world that those we once thought to be our ally and friend should never be taken at face value for sometimes said face is but a mask to cover one's true intent and loyalty. 
 
And sadly, in the case of Canada, the mask when unveiled was in regards to the very "terrorist attack" that forever changed the world as we know it. I only hope that Canada's prime minister steps in and tells the CBC "NO" for if the CBC goes through with this not only will Canada have defamed and disrespected both the victims and the heroes of "9/11," but America's friendly relationship with Canada will rightfully never be the same again. ]]]

Justice delayed for 1988 Lockerbie bombing victims’ families as trial pushed back over new evidence:
‘Roller coaster of emotions’
Natalie O'Neill / NEW YORK POST 

Heartbroken relatives of victims killed in the 1988 Lockerbie bombing said Wednesday they still plan to come face-to-face with one of the alleged terrorists behind the attack — even as his trial was suddenly delayed due to new evidence.

Some family members had hoped to “stare down” Abu Agila Mohammad Mas’ud Kheir Al-Marimi  — who’s charged with making the bomb that killed 259 people aboard Pan Am flight 103 and 11 people on the ground — as jury selection was set to begin Wednesday in Washington, DC, relatives told The Post. 

But justice was put on hold after mysterious new evidence emerged, leaving loved ones with an unfinished chapter in the tragic, 37-year-old case.

“There are some family members that will stare at him — it brings them peace to stare him down,” said Kara Weipz, whose brother, Rick Monetti, was killed in the historic attack. “I don’t care to look at him.” Read more, and see photos here.

We are in a time of war and Trump wastes times with a "tit-for-tat" name calling of a lake that legally can only be applied to official federal government usage, and has NO legal viability under Canadian or maritime law.

"Freedom fighters" are being executed in Iran on an almost daily basis...people he promised to help...and silly name changes are what Trump's busy doing...shameful indeed. Trump is not only making a laughing stock of himself on the world stage, but of our beloved America as well.
 
I wonder what our great Sec. of State Marco Rubio and our great Sec. of War Pete Hegseth really think about Trump's latest actions behind closed doors and out off range of the media, for I cannot imagine either man personally approving of his wasting time on this nonsense. So maybe, and I'm serious here, it's time they try to reign Trump and his ego in before we lose a war that could have and should have easily been won last summer. ]]]
