2022-05-05 14:00:07 Parents of sailor who died by suicide on USS George Washington blast Navy's 'ridiculous' response

The parents of a sailor who died by suicide while on board the USS George Washington - one of the seven crew members who have died in the past year, including four by suicide - on Wednesday blasted the Navy's response to the crisis as "ridiculous."

John Sandor and Mary Graft, the parents of Master at Arms Seaman Recruit Xavier Hunter Mitchell Sandor, that their son did not provide much detail about the conditions on the carrier but said the experience was "awful."

"People shouldn't have to live like this," John Sandor said his son told him, adding that Xavier would call them from his car and that there was a lack of hot water with which to take a shower.
Since Monday, more than 200 sailors have been moved from the carrier to a nearby Navy facility after multiple deaths by suicide among the crew, including three in less than one week in April, the Navy said. Open / Comment

2022-05-04 21:00:05 An earth-shattering moment for a Supreme Court already on the brink

The US Supreme Court's legitimacy has been deeply pierced, and it may never recover its stature in the eyes of America.

For Chief Justice John Roberts, whose concern for the institution's reputation is manifest in nearly every opinion he writes and every public speech he makes, the developments are a disaster of the highest order.

Not only does it appear that the five most conservative members of the court, including the three new appointees of former President Donald Trump, are ready to overturn a half century of constitutionally grounded abortion rights. It further appears that Politico, which published the first draft of the opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, had surmounted the court's longstanding protocols of secrecy and security. Open / Comment

2022-05-04 14:00:13 Biden nominates new top US general in Europe

Gen. Christopher Cavoli, the current head of US Army forces in Europe and Africa has been nominated by President Joe Biden to serve as the top US general in Europe as head of US European Command, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announced Tuesday.

If confirmed, Cavoli will take charge of some 100,000 US troops from all services stationed in Europe as Russia continues to carry out its war on Ukraine.

If confirmed he will take charge of the daily US military effort to assess Russian military moves in Europe and oversee the supply of US and allied weapons into Ukraine. European Command has established an extensive effort to coordinate Ukraine's weapons requests and help work to see what can be provided by both the US and the allies. Weapons shipments have continuously arrived along NATO's eastern flank where they are picked up by Ukrainian personnel and brought into the country by rail or truck. Open / Comment

2022-05-03 21:00:05 Georgia official frantically texted Mark Meadows as Trump badgered secretary of state to 'find' votes

As Donald Trump badgered Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger on an hour-long call to "find" the votes necessary to flip the battleground state to Trump's column after the 2020 election, a Raffensperger aide fired off a plea for help.

"Need to end this call," Jordan Fuchs, then the deputy secretary of state, said in a text message to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows. "I don't think this will be productive much longer."

She added: "Let's save the relationship."

The little-noticed text messages, included in a recent court filing, provide a deeper look at the chaos that ensued as the former President pressed Raffensperger to help prove Trump won in Georgia - a state Trump lost. That call now stands at the center of an investigation into Trump. Open / Comment
