A massive Armada is heading to Iran. It is moving quickly, with great power, enthusiasm, and purpose. He added: Hopefully Iran will quickly Come to the Table and negotiate a fair and equitable deal NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS one that is good for all parties. Time is running out, it is truly of the essence!

Her complaint is that Republicans blocked legislative efforts to raise California's minimum wage, implying that if Republicans really cared about workers, they would support a higher minimum wage. She lists a group of U.S. states that have no state minimum wage law and thus "take advantage" of low-wage workers. Her question to the chairman: "What do the states on that list have in common?" The states are Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Wyoming.

The Danish Prime Minister said the world should take Donald Trump "seriously" as he keeps insisting, he wants Greenland now. Frederiksen said in an interview with Danish broadcaster TV2, "One should take the American president seriously when he says that he wants Greenland. "If the US chooses to attack another NATO country militarily, then everything stops, including NATO and thus the security that has been established since the end of the Second World War."

Brazil plans to send national guard troops to northern Roraima state, which borders Venezuela and has a strong presence of illegal armed groups who traffic drugs and mine illegally on both sides of the international boundary, according to a government decree. In an official decree published on Thursday, the government authorised an unspecified number of National Public Security Force (FNSP) troops to be sent to Pacaraima, as well as Roraima's capital, Boa Vista, about 213km (132 miles) from the border.

At the Simon Bolivar International Bridge, which spans the Tachira River separating Colombia and Venezuela near the border city of Cucuta, vehicle and foot traffic flowed normally on Monday despite an increased military presence, which included three parked Colombian M1117 armoured security vehicles. But with United States President Donald Trump threatening more attacks if newly sworn-in interim leader Delcy Rodriguez does not behave, an uneasy calm has settled over the border region, and Colombia is preparing for the worst.

"There's no doubt that America's adversaries are trafficking fentanyl into the United States in part because they want to kill Americans. If this were a war, that would be one of the worst wars. I believe they killed over the last five or six years, per year, 200-to-300,000 people. You hear about a 100,000, which is a lot of people, but the number is much higher than that. That's been proven."

Thousands of protesters lined the sidewalks from Miami to West Palm Beach Saturday, chanting "dump Trump," wearing inflatable animal costumes and singing the national anthem as part of the second wave of anti-Trump, "No Kings" demonstrations across the country. Like the previous round of "No Kings" protests in June, the theme of the demonstrations was democracy. Participants echoed concerns raised over the summer, including the administration's widespread immigration crackdown, economic inequality and infringements on due process.

US national security expert Kori Schake warns that President Trump is asking the US military to fight his culture wars. Arguing that some places in the United States primarily those governed by Democratic officials are rampantly crime-infested, President Donald Trump has been deploying military forces to cities from Los Angeles to Washington, DC. Former National Security Council official Kori Schake tells host Steve Clemons that

Images of the texts were taken by a source who then sent them to the Star Tribune. The texts indicated that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth considered deploying the legendary division within the U.S. The publication reported that Anthony Salisbury, who is a Miller deputy, communicated with other Trump officials last weekend via the app Signal in a conspicuous manner:

An eighth US Navy vessel arrived in the Caribbean this week as part of President Donald Trump's push to combat maritime drug trafficking and cartel activity with military force. USS Stockdale, an Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer, joins seven other American vessels in the waters of US Southern Command. Among the deployed warships are the destroyers USS Jason Dunham and USS Gravely, USS Lake Erie, a missile cruiser, and USS Minneapolis-Saint Paul, a littoral combat ship.

The multi-domain activity, which will commence in the coming days and continue for an undisclosed amount of time, is in response to ongoing airspace violations, including the numerous Russian drones that violated Poland's airspace on September 10," NATO said in a statement.

As tensions with the United States grow over the U.S. armed fleet deployed in the Caribbean Sea near Venezuelan territory, the Venezuelan regime is making a special effort to publicize in detail its anti-narcotics operations in the country's border and coastal areas, carried out by the Armed Forces and security agencies. Venezuela's narrative about responsibility in the fight against drug trafficking much more frequent now is accompanied by a vigorous nationalist

The US attack on the Venezuelan boat on Tuesday came just a few days after news reports circulated about US warships advancing into Venezuelan waters. Last month, The New York Times reported that Trump had signed a secret directive instructing the Pentagon to use military force against certain Latin American drug cartels designated by the US as foreign terrorist organisations.

The Pentagon's recent deployment of military assets to the Middle East reflects the escalating hostilities between Israel and Iran, as well as a proactive defense strategy.
