"We have to stop sane-washing this Administration and this news cycle....
Remember the live-fire artillery drill in California that I exclusively reported on earlier this week? One of those shells detonated early, directly over Interstate 5, & damaged a vehicle in Vice President JD Vance’s security detail.
When I first reported this plan, critics called it 'fearmongering.' They said it couldn’t be true."

"Sources said the Camp Pendleton artillery incident was especially dangerous because live munitions were fired over a freeway with civilians below, a departure from standard practice, and they welcomed an investigation into the conduct of Trump, Vance, and Hegseth."
