He did not learn until later that he had witnessed a #US attack on an *alleged* Islamic State camp.

#Trump announced late Thursday that the US had launched a “powerful & deadly strike” against forces of the Islamic State group in #Nigeria. The Nigerian government has since confirmed that it cooperated with the US government in its strike.

“But the policies they’ve chosen have created extra costs for businesses, & businesses tend to pass on costs,” Sahm added.

The cost of #Trump’s policies is likely to increase in the coming months.

His most inflationary policy is his campaign to build a wall of #tariffs around the US #economy. Tariffs are #taxes on imports, & they are *initially* paid by the businesses that bring goods into the #US.

The federal judge who sought to meet with US #BorderPatrol boss Greg #Bovino on a daily basis said Wednesday she “was a little surprised” to see the #feds challenge that arrangement — especially after Bovino’s appearance on #FauxNews.

#US District Judge Sara Ellis made the comment Wed evening, after the #7thCircuit Appeals Court agreed to put a temporary hold on her standing appointment with the #CBP’s commander-at-large.

Ellis noted she’s been “receiving emails from the public.” She shared them with lawyers in the suit that prompted #Bovino’s appearance in her courtroom this week & a #TRO earlier this month.

“I do want to note that, certainly, any decision that I made to monitor the effectiveness & compliance of the [TRO] that I entered was based solely on the evidence submitted in this case. It was not, as the government asserts, based on anything outside of the record,”Ellis said.

There’s still a chance #Bovino could wind up spending more time in Ellis’ courtroom. The appeals court asked for additional briefing on the issue by the end of business Thursday.

Bovino was also due to appear at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse on Thursday morning for a deposition behind closed doors. Ellis has said it could go as long as 5 hours.

Though the appeals court called off #Bovino’s appearance, lawyers still met the judge in her courtroom, acc/to a transcript posted on the docket.

“I did see Mr. Bovino’s interview on Fox News today, where he did state that he was excited to come to court & that this would not impede his activities or his ability to manage the operation at all. So I was a little surprised just to see that the government’s position…was directly contradicted by Mr. Bovino,”Ellis said.

Both MS Edge and Google/Android newsfeeds had stories with posting the fake #PatriciaRoutledge, "I'll be turning 95 this coming Monday," letter, as real.

I'm neither a journalist nor a professional fact checker but, the thing is, it's has never been easier to check basic facts. Yeah, sure, there's a world of misinformation out there, but it doesn't take much effort to determine if something is likely to be true.

The Department of Housing & Urban Development website now has a large banner reading: “The Radical Left are going to shut down the government and inflict massive pain on the American people unless they get their $1.5 trillion wish list of demands.

The settlement comes after #FoxNews paid $787.5M to settle a similar #defamation lawsuit in 2023 & #Newsmax paid what court papers describe as $40M to settle a #libel lawsuit from a different voting machine manufacturer, #Smartmatic, which also was a target of pro-Trump #ConspiracyTheories on the network.

The disclosure came as #Trump vowed in a social media post Monday to eliminate #MailinBallots & #VotingMachines such as those supplied by #Dominion & other companies. It was unclear how Trump could [legally] achieve that.
