Hundreds of U.S. troops across dozens of units and installations have submitted complaints to the non-profit watchdog, the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), since the attack about combat unit commanders providing Christian reasoning for the war, during which at least four U.S. troops have already been killed, independent journalist Jonathan Larsen reports on Substack.
Non-commissioned officers (NCO) who attended a briefing Monday told the MRFF that a combat-unit commander “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ.”
The commander also argued that Trump “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth” and that the Iran war is part of God’s plan, the NCO claimed.
Tmz Splash this on their website today with other news networks quickly picking up on it, and insult her around the world along with a presidential response that in past administrations would have been considered scandalous. Now it’s just a blip on the nightly news.
TRUMP toured the Ford F-150 plant at the Detroit Economic Club before giving a speech … while walking the factory floor on his tour, someone began shouting at Trump. It’s hard to make out the full sentence shouted at Trump, but it seems to have included the words “pedophile protector.”
At this point it was pretty clear what the president was mouthing back to the worker followed by the one finger salute. No more information has been gathered but of course the media will be chomping at the bit to talk to the worker and find out more, meanwhile we will all simultaneously move on to the next big issue an hour from now…
The United States hit Venezuela with a “large-scale strike” early Saturday and said its president had been captured and flown out of the country after months of intense pressure on Nicolás Maduro’s government — an extraordinary nighttime operation announced by President Donald Trump on social media hours after the attack.
The legal authority for the strike — and whether Trump consulted Congress beforehand — was not immediately clear.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said on social media on Saturday that both Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores had been indicted in the Southern District of New York. There has been no public indictment of her.
Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau confirmed in a social media post that Nicolás Maduro has been removed from power and will be put on trial or punished…

In a brief phone interview with The Times, President Trump celebrated the success of the mission to capture Maduro. “A lot of good planning and lot of great, great troops and great people,” Trump said. “It was a brilliant operation, actually.”
When asked if he had sought congressional authority for the operation or what is next for Venezuela, Trump said he would address those matters during his news conference at Mar-a-Lago in the morning.
Two very specific—but wildly different—events happened today, and somehow they both gave me the exact same feeling. They’re not related, not connected, not even in the same solar system. One’s about UFOs, the other’s about Donald Trump. But the outcome? The vibe? Exactly the same. That sense that we’re being played or gas-lit—pick whichever word fits your mood—on this cold November Friday night.
The UFO Side of Things: “Disclosure” or Just Another Tease?
A new documentary dropped today called The Age of Disclosure. If you’re even loosely following the UFO world, you’ve heard the buildup. Months of whispers, interviews, hype, and promise that this is the next big step toward finally learning the truth.
It’s the same old routine: they dangle a chocolate bar from a fishing line, and as soon as we get close, they drive off in a truck doing 85 on Route 61. Disclosure is always the carrot on the stick—never the meal.
Every time David Grusch or another whistle-blower gets hauled before Congress, it feels like the big moment is coming. The big reveal. The truth bomb. And every single time, they back off. They get vague. They hedge their language. Headlines fade. Congress shrugs. And we’re left staring at the sky like fools, holding onto nothing.
So today, when The Age of Disclosure finally released on Amazon, I checked the price:
$24.99 to buy. $19.99 to rent.
Look, I’m not saying they have to give it away for free. But when something is marketed as a world-changing revelation, and then it costs as much as a small grocery run, it starts to feel less like disclosure and more like a business model. The UFO world at this point has merch tables, collector editions, and VIP passes. It’s starting to feel like pro wrestling.
So here I am on a Friday night, debating whether I should rent it, buy it, or skip it completely. Will it actually give me anything new? Or will it be the same old talking heads telling the same old stories, with the same old “We’re getting close!” energy? That chocolate bar just keeps dangling, just out of reach.
Meanwhile, in a Completely Different Universe: Trump and Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani
On the far opposite end of the galaxy, Donald Trump met today with New York City’s newly elected mayor, Zohran Mamdani. The media showed up loaded for drama. Everyone expected tension. People still remember the awkward tension-filled meeting Trump had with Zelensky in 2019, so the stage was set for another icy showdown.
And then… the exact opposite happened.
Trump and Mamdani acted like they were best friends from way back. Trump practically glowed. Mamdani smiled like he just won a radio contest. They complimented each other. They joked. They praised each other in ways that made both liberals and conservatives blink in confusion.
It was a Kumbaya moment no one saw coming. It felt rehearsed. Polished. Almost like a scene from a play that someone forgot to tell us was satire. And again, the same feeling washed over me:
We’re being played.
It’s Not Just These Two Stories — It’s Everything Lately
One news outlet says it’s the cheapest Thanksgiving in years. Another says it’s the most expensive ever recorded. Walmart claims prices dropped 25%. Meanwhile, people at home feel like they’re paying 50% more.
Pick your talking point. Pick your truth. Pick your reality.
We’re living in an era where The Age of Disclosure doesn’t disclose anything—and The Age of Confusion is fully operational. UFOs, politics, economics… none of it lines up. None of it makes sense. Everything feels like a performance, a script, a distraction, a dangling chocolate bar we’re sprinting after.
We run harder. It drives farther.
The candy bar never gets closer. The mystery never solves itself. The answers never appear.
Just more confusion. More noise. More showmanship. More exhaustion.
Maybe one day we’ll actually catch that chocolate bar. But tonight? It’s just getting smaller in the distance— while we stand here out of breath, heart pounding, adrenaline fading, wondering why we’re still running.
What a weird day in news and politics.. reporters have been apprehensive about sharing or reporting this but the internet has gone wild with Trump and Jeffrey Epstein and now Bill Clinton connections..
One of the emails released, from Epstein’s brother Mark Epstein, has gone viral. In it, Mark speculates if Putin has a photo of “Trump blowing Bubba.”
The mention of the President “blowing Bubba” has caused a storm on social media, as ‘Bubba’ is the nickname of former President Bill Clinton, who is also alleged to have been associated with Epstein.
But people have taken it and molded it into thr political shocker worthy of a Trump Season 2 plot shift..
Drudge was in his glory mockinga Trump and also Clinton–hardening back to what got Drudge famous to begin with in the late 90s..
Meanwhile Trump raised eyebrows along with the volume at the White House…
Politico correspondent Jake Taylor noted on Friday afternoon that music from “The Phantom of the Opera” was playing so loudly it could be heard outside the White House. The president is said to be a notorious fan of Broadway show tunes and enjoys playing DJ at events.

A Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman offered a two-word reply Friday in response to a local news report that said immigration agents were seen wearing Halloween masks in the Los Angeles area.
“Happy Halloween!” DHS assistant secretary for public affairs Tricia McLaughlin wrote to NBC News when asked about the report.
The story by the local news site LA Taco featured images posted to social media showing what the outlet says were agents in unmarked cars donning Chucky and Momo masks. It said a member of the Harbor Area Peace Patrol, which monitors federal activity in the area, spotted the vehicle with the Momo mask-wearing driver at an immigration raid on Tuesday.
📣 When the White House Borrows from Halo: A Recruitment Gambit That’s Both Brilliant and Unnerving
So here’s a wild one for you. Imagine this: the powers that be in the White House, or at least whoever’s running their social media playbook , decide to roll out a recruitment campaign for ICE and Homeland Security. And what do they use to get people’s attention? An image straight out of Halo…the Flood, that creepy parasitic alien menace.
Now, let’s break this down a bit, because there’s a lot going on here. On one level, it’s actually a pretty clever piece of marketing if you think about who they’re targeting. They’re obviously aiming at a certain demographic.. people who grew up on Halo, who understand the reference, and who might feel a little secret thrill of recognition. It’s like a hidden message just for them: “Hey, you know what the Flood is? Then you get what we’re talking about.”
But on the flip side, and this is where it gets shaky, it’s also a little unnerving. They’re turning a fictional alien invasion that consumes everything in its path into a metaphor for real human beings. And let’s be honest, it’s not exactly a flattering metaphor. It kind of puts a militarized target on people, and that’s where it gets ethically murky.
It also tells you a lot about the Trump-era approach to media and marketing. They took what Obama did with social media back in 2008 and cranked it up to eleven. They know how to dominate the internet game and how to get attention.. good press, bad press, it all keeps them in the spotlight. And this is just another example of that: using a piece of pop culture that resonates with a certain group to send a message that only they’ll fully get.
In the end, it’s a fascinating, if kind of eyebrow-raising, tactic. It shows just how much of a double-edged sword this kind of marketing can be both effective and a little unsettling. And hey, maybe that’s the point. It’s 2025, and this is just another chapter in the ongoing saga of how politics and pop culture keep colliding in the wildest ways.
The New York TIMES and other media are reporting tonight that President Trump’s plan to add an expansive ballroom to the White House will mean the demolition of the entire East Wing, which was expected to be fully torn down by this weekend, according to a senior administration official.
Trump had pledged that the East Wing would not be touched by the construction, one of the largest renovations to the building in decades even before the change in plans. Read more ›
As part of a legal settlement reached last month with Trump, Alphabet, which owns YouTube, is contributing $22 million toward Trump’s White House construction plans. Trump sued the tech giant after it suspended his YouTube channel for two years, following the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Images showing demolition work on the East Wing to make way for the ballroom have sparked scrutiny this week and renewed the question over who’s paying for the estimated $250 million, 90,000-square-foot addition.
According to court filings in Oakland, California, Alphabet’s contribution, which accounts for roughly 10% of the total projected cost, will be made on Trump’s behalf to the Trust for the National Mall, a nonprofit entity dedicated to restoring and preserving the National Mall.
“The White House Ballroom is being privately funded by many generous Patriots, Great American Companies, and, yours truly,” Trump said Monday on his social media platform Truth Social.
Tmz and other sources are reporting that Trump will insert himself into Diddy…
Donald Trump is considering commuting Diddy’s sentence as early as this week, according to a high-ranking White House official.
According to our source, the President is “vacillating” on a commutation. We’re told some of the W.H. staff are urging Trump not to commute the sentence. But, our source states the obvious — “Trump will do what he wants,” and we’re told Trump could set Diddy free as early as this week
The shadowy object moves up the stairs to Epstein’s cell block at the Metropolitan Correctional Center around 10:40 p.m. the night before the 66-year-old convicted sex trafficker was found hanged.
Federal investigators previously said the pixelated blob was a corrections officer “carrying linen or inmate clothing,” but forensic experts who spoke to the network as part of an investigation into the jail video now suspect it may have actually been a jumpsuit clad inmate.
“To say that there’s no way that someone could get to that, the stairs up to his room, without being seen is false,” video forensic expert Jim Safford told CBS, with his view shared by four other leading experts.
The footage also doesn’t appear to be raw, with the outlet reporting it’s likely a screen recording — evidenced by a cursor and menu visible on the screen. The video feed also skipped ahead a full minute just before midnight, and its aspect ratio abruptly shifted.

CBS also reports,
The Justice Department said the FBI seized the prison’s digital video recorder system, or DVR, containing the raw footage five days after Epstein’s death. When federal officials released the jail video, they attested that it was “raw footage,” but the presence of a cursor and onscreen menu raise questions about that. Experts told CBS News those images indicate the video was likely a screen recording rather than an export directly from a DVR system.
