Pentagon restores Jackie Robinson webpage after removing it

Thu, Mar 20, 2025 at 8:41 am

The Defense Department says it was a mistake to remove its webpage dedicated to Jackie Robinson yesterday (WED). Although the department is under a Trump Administration directive to delete DEI content…a Pentagon spokesman says it was beyond that guidance to remove the Jackie Robinson webpage, honoring the World War 2 veteran who broke baseball’s color barrier. The page has since been restored, including information about his legal encounters with segregation during Army service as a 2nd Lieutenant, an experience which influenced the Dodger’s legendary president Branch Rickey to select Robinson for his heroic journey to withstand racism in integrating the National pastime.

Trump giving TikTok another 75 days to find a U.S. buyer

Fri, Apr 4, 2025 at 2:47 pm

President Trump is giving his administration more time to broker a deal for TikTok. Congress had mandated that the popular social media platform be divested from China back in January or banned in the U-S on national security grounds. But Donald Trump extended the deadline to this weekend in a bid to keep it running. On Friday, the president announced he’s going to let TikTok operate in the U-S for another 75 days while a deal is ironed out. He said he looks “forward to working with TikTok and China to close the deal.”

GOP Dissenters Force House Vote Shutdown Until Monday

Tue, Apr 1, 2025 at 6:02 pm
There will be no votes in the House for the rest of the week after a handful of Republicans sided with Democrats against allowing debate on a pair of GOP bills. A vote against the common formality of letting a bill proceed came after internal GOP disagreement over a proposal to allow members to vote remotely when they are parents of a newborn. Florida Republican Rep, Anna Paulina [R-FL] has been leading a bi-partisan group demanding members who are new parents be allowed to vote remotely for 12 weeks following the child’s birth. Speaker Mike Johnson [R-LA] says that means there cn be no votes in the House until Monday night.

A House Republican Calls for Safeguards on Defense Calls

Tue, Mar 25, 2025 at 4:37 am

WASHINGTON – A House Republican calls for ‘safeguards’ to be used after a war plan text chat was leaked to the public. Details from correspondent Bernie Bennett.

VERBATIM: GOP Congressman Mike Lawler of New York called for “safeguards” to be implemented to ensure the leaking of war plans doesn’t happen again after a journalist was included in a Signal group chat discussing them.

Lawler said Monday in a post on the social platform X, “Classified information should not be transmitted on unsecured channels – and certainly not to those without security clearances, including reporters. Period.”

National Security Council spokesperson Brian Hughes confirmed the messages in the chat appear to be “authentic,” adding that the success of the attack on the Houthis shows there were no threats to U.S. troops or national security.

Bernie Bennett, Washington.
