“God was watching us” during the historic rescue operation in Iran, President Donald Trump said during a press conference on Monday, detailing the rescue operation. President Donald Trump kicked off the press conference detailing the elite rescue operation taking place over the weekend behind enemy lines in what has been described as “one of the most challenging and complex” rescue missions in the history of U.S. special operations.” Trump described the conditions survived by the “heroic F-15 weapon system officer” — one of two crew members in the F-15E Strike Eagle shot down over Iran. Both ejected but were separated…

Monday on FBN’s “The Evening Edit,” Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) voiced his disdain for Democrats and their rhetoric regarding the U.S. military strikes against Iran. “Congressman, it’s always a pleasure to see you again,” FBN host Elizabeth MacDonald said. “Thanks for joining us tonight. What’s your reaction to this Obama’s aide saying, you know, Iran is winning because of its propaganda on the internet?” Perry replied, “Unfortunately, it’s unsurprising to me, as usual, instead of look in this world of they can’t stand anything Trump at all, they will even side with a terrorist Islamist regime that beheads its own…

The second downed airman who was rescued as the result of a massive and historic rescue operation was flown out of Iran Easter morning, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said during a press conference on Monday. “One downed airman evaded capture for more than a day, scaling rugged ridges while hunted by the enemy,” Hegseth said, describing the plight of the F-15 weapon systems officer – one of two airmen who were struck down in Iran last week. Both safely ejected from the aircraft but landed miles apart, resulting in one – the pilot – being rescued within hours. The…

Indian refiner Reliance Industries has begun loading a 2-million barrel cargo of Venezuelan crude oil directly bought from the state-owned oil company PDVSA, Reuters reported on Monday. Reliance is reportedly one of the few companies that has so far received a general license from the United States allowing it to buy Venezuelan oil under strict U.S. oversight and without violating existing U.S. oil sanctions on PDVSA. Other countries that have received such licenses reportedly include Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Spain’s Repsol. The license was reportedly issued to Reliance following the arrest of deposed socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro in a January 3…

The American leader himself has struck the match, setting not only Iran and the wider Gulf region, but the entire world,…

House Democrat leadership released a statement on Tuesday calling for lawmakers to come back into session “immediately” and vote to end the war in Iran following President Donald Trump’s sharp warning to the Islamic country. Democrat House leaders referred to Trump as “unhinged” following the commander-in-chief’s warning to Iran that its “whole civilization will die tonight” unless “something revolutionarily wonderful” occurs. “His statement threatening to eradicate an entire civilization shocks the conscience and requires a decisive congressional response,” House Democrat leaders said, calling for the House to come back into session “immediately and vote to end this reckless war of…

More people than ever received prescriptions for lethal drugs in Oregon in 2025, according to a new report.  Last year, doctors wrote 637 prescriptions under the state’s “Death with Dignity Act,” a progressive euphemism for state-sanctioned physician-assisted suicide, The Oregonian reported, citing recently released state data. That number is the highest on record since the law went into effect in 1997 and represents a 5-percent increase from 2024, according to the report.  Oregon was the first state to pass an assisted suicide law in the United States, but is now one of a dozen states, plus Washington, DC, that allow…

The American Orion spacecraft, part of the Artemis II mission, has reached the Moon. The journey took around four days, excluding the first day spent in Earth orbit, and the return will take roughly the same time.Yet unlike the Apollo missions of half a century ago, Orion will not enter lunar orbit. Instead, it will follow a so-called free-return trajectory, looping around the Moon and using its gravity to swing back toward Earth. This is the same maneuver that saved the crew of Apollo 13.The choice is deliberate. Artemis II is, above all, a test flight. NASA has opted to…

Britain’s Royal Navy has been forced to return its only warship deployed for the Iranian conflict to port for a “maintenance period”, the government admitted on Tuesday. The shambolic UK response to the Iranian conflict continued on Tuesday as the Daily Mail reported that HMS Dragon, the only destroyer-class ship deployed to the Mediterranean, has already been pulled from service. According to the paper, the ship suffered an issue with its onboard water system. It comes after it took nearly a week for HMS Dragon to set sail to protect British sovereign territory on Cyprus after the RAF Akrotiri air base came…
