"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."

"BREAKING: Live munitions from a Trump-Vance “military demo” flew over I-5 and struck a CHP vehicle. The White House wanted the highway open—but Gov. Newsom shut it down for safety. That decision likely prevented injuries or worse.

"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."
