US Southern Command on Friday released unclassified footage of the US Military blowing up a drug boat in the Eastern Pacific.
Three narco-terrorists aboard the vessel survived.
On March 19, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a low-profile vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations.
Intelligence confirmed the low-profile vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations.
Three narco-terrorists survived the strike. Following the engagement, USSOUTHCOM immediately notified U.S. Coast Guard to activate the Search and Rescue system for the survivors. No U.S. military forces were harmed.
WATCH:
The US military has destroyed at least 45 drug boats in the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean since September.
Earlier this month, US Southern Command announced that the US conducted a military strike on a narco-terrorist network in Ecuador.
“At the order of Secretary of War Hegseth, SOUTHCOM Commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan directed the joint force to support Ecuadorian forces conducing lethal kinetic operations against Designated Terrorist Organizations within Ecuador March 6,” US Southern Command said.
“We are advancing alongside our partners in the fight against narcoterrorism,” General Donovan said.
“I congratulate our joint forces and the Ecuadorian armed forces for the successful operation against narcoterrorists in Ecuador. This collaborative and decisive action is a strategic success for all nations in the Western Hemisphere committed to disrupting and defeating narcoterrorism.” General Donovan said.
“This operation demonstrates the power of coordinated action and sends a clear message: narco-terrorist networks will not find refuge in our hemisphere,” the Pentagon said.
“The United States remains steadfast in supporting nations that stand against narcoterrorism. Together, we will dismantle trafficking and corruption networks, hold these organizations accountable, and restore peace through strength,” the Pentagon said.
Conservative hero Orbán, Prime Minister of Hungary.
Orbán is the man that Brussels’ establishment loves to hate, but patriots stand by him every step of the way.
For 16 years, the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has been his own man in European summits, capable of standing alone if needs be, against the suicidal Globalist policies pursued by the EU.
Now, all the Euro-Globalists and liberals are desperately hoping that this was his last European Summit.
The last straw for those ‘leaders’ was that Orbán blocked the 90-billion-euro loan for Ukraine, the absolute priority for the deranged officials in Brussels and Strasbourg.
He suffered tremendous peer pressure from the heads of state and government, but did not relent.
EU leaders failed to persuade Hungary’s Viktor Orban to lift his block on a massive loan to support Ukraine’s war effort at summit talks on Thursday, leaving the much-needed funding in limbo. https://t.co/c2PRECuILHpic.twitter.com/x4IBanktcw
“The bloc’s longest-serving government chief, facing an election in less than a month that he’s forecast to lose, has long been a thorn in the side of Brussels (which also means Paris, Berlin and a score of other capitals). There was no sign at Thursday’s European Council that even if he is preparing to walk off into the sunset he’s any less stubborn — or any more admired.
‘Nobody can blackmail the European Council, nobody can blackmail the European institutions’, European Council President António Costa, who chaired the meeting, told reporters, in an extraordinary broadside. ‘It is completely unacceptable what Hungary is doing’.”
It’s Orbán and the patriots against the Globalist hordes.
All the usual suspects came out against him, with Germany’s Friedrich Merz saying he ‘is violating one of the fundamental principles of our cooperation’.
“In recent weeks, the Hungarian prime minister has linked the pipeline issue to the loan and accused Ukraine of not repairing Druzhba for political reasons — making it an election issue by painting himself as the protector of his country’s interests. Zelensky has said he doesn’t want to repair a pipeline that the Russians have repeatedly attacked, which helps fund the Kremlin’s full-scale invasion of his country. Costa said during his press conference that Russia had damaged the pipeline 23 times since launching the full-scale invasion.
‘What I have done today is to crush the oil blockade, which [was] imposed on us by Zelensky’, Orbán said after the summit. ‘So, I defended the interest of the country’.”

But European Patriots are standing beside him in the runup to the elections, as an event next week is to show.
“The event dubbed ‘the first Patriotic Grand Assembly’ will include speeches from far-right leaders Marine Pen and Matteo Salvini as well as Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš. According to media reports, US Vice President JD Vance is planning to visit Hungary soon.
Far-right leaders Marine Le Pen and Matteo Salvini will join Viktor Orbán at a campaign rally in Budapest next Monday, three weeks before a parliamentary election that could pose the most serious challenge to the Hungarian leader’s 16-year hold on power.”

The five members of the team tasked with writing the British government’s definition of Islamophobia have all been found to have ties to Islamist extremism. Photo courtesy of Britain Is Broken via X.
Zara Mohammed, Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain, said “Our view is that the Islamophobia in the Party is institutional, tolerated by the leadership and seen as acceptable by great swathes of the party membership.”
The Muslim Council of Britain is the organization pushing for the British government to accept its restrictive definition of Islamophobia. The group has consistently promoted the definition produced by the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on British Muslims in 2018–2019. That definition states: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.”
When the U.K. government released its own definition in March 2026, using the term “anti-Muslim hostility” rather than “Islamophobia,” MCB Secretary General Dr. Wajid Akhter called it a “diminished version” of what the government’s own working group had recommended and declined to endorse it.
Working from a restrictive definition of Islamophobia, the British government has been cracking down on free speech in order to appease Muslim groups. In 2025, Hamit Coskun was handed a criminal conviction for burning a Quran outside the Turkish Embassy in London, shouting “F–k Islam” and “Islam is a religion of terrorism.” He was convicted of religiously motivated harassment, alarm, or distress and received a fine of approximately $300 plus a surcharge of $120.
Coskun was attacked by Moussa Kadri, who came at him with a knife, beating and slashing at him. Kadri pleaded guilty to assault and possession of a bladed article and received a 20-week prison sentence, suspended for 18 months, with 150 hours of unpaid work. The judge spared him jail because he had “lost his temper” and was of previously “exemplary character.”
Another recent case involved online speech targeting Islam. Pete North was arrested in 2025 on suspicion of a public-order offence after posting a meme that read “F*** Palestine, F*** Hamas, F*** Islam.” He was later released without charge.
A broader enforcement pattern has also emerged. According to Freedom House, 12,000 people were arrested in 2023 alone, including for social media posts, under the Communications Act 2003 and the Malicious Communications Act 1988.
Hatun Tash, an ex-Muslim convert to Christianity who preaches publicly, has been arrested multiple times in 2020, 2021, and 2022. She was arrested once for alleged criminal damage to a copy of the Quran she says was her own property and once under the Public Order Act for wearing a Charlie Hebdo T-shirt depicting the Prophet Mohammed.
In June 2022, police arrived at Speakers’ Corner to find a crowd surrounding Tash after a man had stolen her Quran. Rather than pursuing the thief, officers restrained her, marched her through the crowd, strip-searched her, and detained her overnight. She was then charged with “criminal damage” for her own property.
Tash had previously been stabbed in the face and hands at Speakers’ Corner in July 2021. Her attacker was never arrested. An Islamic terrorist was later jailed for a minimum of 24 years for plotting to murder her with a firearm.
A Christian pastor, Pastor Dia Moodley, was arrested in 2024 by Avon and Somerset Police and held for 13 hours after street preaching outside Bristol University, where he contrasted Christianity and Islam in response to a question from the crowd. The arresting officer cited the fact that his comments were made during Ramadan.
During the same incident, Moodley was physically assaulted, pushed from a stepladder, and had a sign torn from his hands, but police arrested him rather than his attackers. He was charged under the Crime and Disorder Act and the Public Order Act. The investigation was later dropped after legal representations by ADF U.K., and Moodley subsequently filed a complaint against the police.
The definition of Islamophobia currently adopted by the U.K. government is non-statutory, meaning it does not directly create a criminal offence. However, the Free Speech Union (FSU) warns that, in practice, the definition amounts to a Muslim blasphemy law through the back door, 18 years after Parliament voted to abolish such laws. Several parliamentarians and free speech campaigners have warned that the definition could be used as a covert anti-blasphemy law to severely curb freedom of expression and legitimate criticism of Islam.
An FSU investigation found that all five members of the U.K. government’s Islamophobia working group have links to Islamism or has publicly expressed extremist views, meaning the panel was compromised from the start. The report also found connections to groups including the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) and Muslim Engagement and Development (MEND), two organizations successive governments have declined to engage with since 2009 due to concerns about their views.
These individuals with extremist sympathies have been involved in defining what people can and cannot say, with those who go against it potentially facing punishment. According to the FSU, rather than objectively debating whether a definition was needed, the group appears to have been assembled to justify a pre-decided political outcome by the Labour government.
Most members had connections to organizations or figures linked to extremist ideology, including support for blasphemy-style restrictions on speech and the defense of individuals tied to radicalism. They had also already endorsed a controversial definition linking Islamophobia to racism and restricting discussion of issues such as grooming gangs, historical Islamic conquests, and criticism of Muslim-majority countries.
The report states that multiple panel members have supported censorship, downplayed crimes involving Muslim perpetrators, or promoted narratives aligned with Islamist positions.
Chair Dominic Grieve is described as having shifted from criticizing integration failures to promoting Islamophobia as the primary problem, influenced by Islamist-linked groups. A leaked version of the proposed definition suggests it could function as a de facto blasphemy law, effectively shutting down criticism of Islam while punishing dissent through professional or social consequences.
Critics warn the entire process was politically motivated and designed to appease radical elements rather than protect free speech, marking a significant step toward institutionalizing restrictions on open discussion of Islam in the U.K.
Grieve also wrote a glowing foreword to the 2018 APPG definition of Islamophobia after seeking advice from MCB and MEND leaders, including one who blamed the 2017 London Bridge terrorist attack on Jews and Zionists. His 2017 report was sponsored by the East London Mosque, which has been linked to the revolutionary Islamist group Jamaat-e-Islami.
Another member of the working group, Asha Affi, was a council candidate for George Galloway’s Respect Party in 2010, when its policies included support for the Iranian and former Syrian regimes and the elimination of the state of Israel.
Baroness Shaista Gohir tweeted support for Hamas in 2014 and wrote a report claiming it is Islamophobic to suggest grooming gangs are disproportionately Muslim.
Akeela Ahmed has for years worked closely with the MCB in demanding restrictions on reporting on Muslim affairs. She is on record stating that although the government claims the new definition will be non-statutory, laws against expressing Islamophobia should be enforced by the police.
Javed Khan runs the Muslim think tank Equi, whose trustees include Labour MP Afzal Khan, who was forced to apologize for sharing a Facebook post referring to the “Israel-British-Swiss-Rothschilds crime syndicate.” In September 2025, Khan was a keynote speaker at the U.K. launch of the Muslim Impact Forum, which has close ties to Turkey’s Islamist government.
One of the Secret Service agents who failed to secure the roof of the AGR building at the Butler rally on the day of the assassination attempt against President Trump has been suspended again.
Myosoty “Miyo” Perez was one of the agents who failed to secure Trump’s July 2024 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Perez was one of the female agents seen fumbling with her firearm and struggling to holster her gun following the assassination attempt.

Thomas Crooks was able to (climb?) on the roof of the AGR building, put President Trump in his scope from an elevated position, and fire his weapon at Trump.
A countersniper killed Crooks.
President Trump was shot in the ear, and firefighter Corey Comperatore was fatally shot.
To this day, only six Secret Service agents connected to the Butler assassination attempt were temporarily suspended without pay.
Myosoty Perez was one of the six Secret Service agents who were suspended, but she was allowed back at her post until she was suspended again.
President Trump also banned Perez from getting anywhere near him.
According to Real Clear Politics, Perez was suspended for not properly disclosing her relationship and marriage to a foreign national.
Perez secretly married a Brazilian woman in April 2025 and did not notify the agency until this January, according to Real Clear Politics.
The agency is investigating whether Perez’s partner was actually in the US illegally and overstayed her visa.
This is the third time that Perez has been suspended in the last year-and-a-half.
“Despite the ongoing congressional investigations and internal Secret Service review of her role in the Butler failures, Perez quietly married a Brazilian foreign national last April without notifying the agency, according to a copy of her marriage certificate located on the Brevard County public records website and according to sources familiar with the timing of when she informed the agency of her marriage. Upon learning of the marriage, the agency suspended her and issued an internal “Do Not Admit” notice,” RealClear Politics reported.
“The internal Secret Service investigation is examining whether the woman Perez was dating and married last year had overstayed her visa and was facing a deportation order, multiple sources familiar with the matter told RCP,” the outlet reported.

Midshipmen QB Blake Horvath presents President Trump with gifts./Image: Video screenshot via The White House
On December 13, 2025, at the 126th Army-Navy football game, dubbed “America’s Game,” the Midshipmen of the U.S. Naval Academy beat the Black Knights of the U.S. Military Academy.
Because both teams defeated the Air Force Academy earlier in the season, the coveted Commander-in-Chief’s trophy was secured by Navy. The trophy is awarded annually to the winner of the round-robin series among the three U.S. service academies.
President Trump was in attendance for the game as he was as President-Elect in 2016 and in 2024, and three times while he was President, each time receiving a boisterous and enthusiastic welcome from the crowd.
On Friday, the Midshipmen joined President Trump at the White House, where he presented the team with the Commander-in-Chief trophy.
President Trump addressed the players and coaches, “And they’re really amazing. For the second year in a row, it’s my great honor to officially present the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy to the one and only Navy Midshipmen football team.”
“With 11 wins and 2 losses, playing the best teams in football. I used to always think of the military services, they played like a little step below. It’s not true. They play the big teams, and they beat them.”
“These players achieved one of the most impressive seasons in Navy football history and any football history, frankly. And I just want to congratulate the midshipmen. I met them backstage, and they’re great. Thank you. Congratulations.”

The President also signed Preserving America’s Game, an Executive Order mandating the Army-Navy game’s exclusive late-season timeslot to squelch attempts to move it to an earlier spot in the season.
For over a century, the Army-Navy Game, known as “America’s Game,” has stood as a symbol of excellence and the American spirit. Now, the recent and potentially ongoing expansion of the College Football Playoffs (CFP) and other postseason college football games threatens to encroach upon the second Saturday in December — a date traditionally reserved exclusively for “America’s Game.” Such scheduling conflicts weaken the national focus on our Military Service Academies and detract from a morale-building event of vital interest to the Department of War. Accordingly, it is the policy of the United States that no college football game, specifically college football’s CFP or other postseason games, be broadcast in a manner that directly conflicts with the Army‑Navy Game.

Introduced by Navy Head Coach Brian Newberry, the team’s co-captains, nose guard Landon Robinson and standout quarterback Blake Horvath, presented the President with a special helmet and football and shared some laughs.
Horvath said, “Well, first, Mr. President, it is just an honor to be here.”
Trump held up the helmet he was gifted and noted, “This is really heavy. You must have strong necks.”
Horvath quipped, “Well, you’re the healthiest guy here, so you have the neck to do it, yes, sir,” and the team good-naturedly chuckled.
He continued, “I just want to thank you so much for having us here, it is an absolute honor. Last year I was hesitant to say it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, because I knew we’d be back this year. I’m glad I can now say it’s a twice-in-a-lifetime experience and couldn’t have done it without our whole team here. Our support staff from the strength and the trainers to all these guys and all the guys who are still at school right now in class. Thanks to all of them. And just for everybody for supporting us and, you know, go Navy, beat everybody.”
Robinson added, “You know, first off, thank you, Mr. President, for the opportunity to be here. Blake said it, said most of it, but I’m just so thankful to all my teammates. All my coaches for all the hard work they’ve put in. It’s very hard to go 11-2 in a season, but I couldn’t be more proud to play for Navy football, and I couldn’t be more proud to represent the United States Naval Academy. So go Navy, beat Army forever.”
Robinson, a highly regarded player, was named a First-Team All-American by outlets such as the Associated Press, Sports Illustrated, and USA Today in 2025, and was also named American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year. He was featured on The Athletic’s “Freaks List” multiple times.
Horvath had an outstanding 2025 season, leading Navy’s signature triple-option offense. In the 2025 season, he passed for 1,580 yards and 12 TDs. Showing his dual-threat skills, he had 224 carries for 1,200 yards with 16 TDs.
He was a third-team All-AAC selection, and he earned MVP honors for his Navy Liberty Bowl victory over Cincinnati.
On Friday morning President Donald J. Trump went off on NATO on TRUTH Social.
In typical Trump style, he did not hold back.
Trump labeled NATO the “paper tiger” and “cowards.”
He is particularly upset that NATO countries would not help clear the Strait of Hormuz.
President Trump: “Without the U.S.A., NATO IS A PAPER TIGER! They didn’t want to join the fight to stop a Nuclear Powered Iran. Now that fight is Militarily WON, with very little danger for them, they complain about the high oil prices they are forced to pay, but don’t want to help open the Strait of Hormuz, a simple military maneuver that is the single reason for the high oil prices. So easy for them to do, with so little risk. COWARDS, and we will REMEMBER!
President DONALD J. TRUMP”
Trump targets NATO in Friday morning post on TRUTH social.
Earlier this week, President Trump expressed displeasure with other countries for turning down his request to send their militaries to the Strait of Hormuz to protect oil tankers as Israel and the US wage war against Iran, saying that the US will remember the refusal.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, Trump on Saturday claimed, “Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe.”
He specifically called out “China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint,” saying securing the Strait “should have always been a team effort, and now it will be.”
However, the countries quickly rebuffed his demand and instead called for and urged the United States to end the war.
Trump responded to their declination of his proposition on Tuesday during a bilateral meeting with Taoiseach of Ireland Micheál Martin, saying, “We don’t need help.”
Trump further said he was “surprised” that NATO allies, while supportive of the war, “don’t want to help.”
“This was a great test because we don’t need them, but they should have been there,” he said, noting that “we as the United States have to remember that, because we think it’s pretty shocking.”
One of America’s legendary action stars and martial arts aces has died.
He was 86.
TMZ has just reported that Chuck Norris is dead at the age of 86.
His family released the following statement on Instagram:
It is with heavy hearts that our family shares the sudden passing of our beloved Chuck Norris yesterday morning. While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace.

Have they learned nothing?
From late 2024-early 2025, we have been reporting here on TGP about the danger of utilizing the fitness app Strava, and how this technology was being used by bad players to unveil sensitive military data by forces in the west.
Strava fitness app has security issues that have long been reported on.
Now, more than a year later, the reports arise again, as a French sailor is said to have inadvertently revealed the location of an aircraft carrier by simply ‘recording a workout on his smartwatch’.
NEW: The location of the French aircraft carrier, FS Charles de Gaulle, has been given away by a sailor using Strava whilst jogging on the ship deck
“The sailor was running on the deck of the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier as it headed for the eastern Mediterranean Sea amid the growing conflict between the US and Iran on March 13.
He recorded the 4.3-mile, 35-minute exercise on his smartwatch, which was uploaded to his public account on the fitness app Strava, French newspaper Le Monde reported on Thursday.”
Location of a French nuclear submarine was also compromised back in early 2025.
The Charles de Gaulle is the French navy’s flagship, the only nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in operation outside the US military.
Macron gave a speech aboard the carrier, brought from exercises in the North Atlantic.
“’France is there to protect its own, to be at the side of its allies and friends who are being hit’, he said, explaining why he had asked his navy to carry out the maneuver. ‘Your presence today demonstrates the power of France, a balancing power, one of peace’, he added.
While the presence of the carrier in the region was ‘no secret’, Le Monde noted, the sailor had ‘revealed, almost in real time, [the ship’s] exact location’.”
A French military officer accidentally revealed their aircraft carrier’s hidden location with a morning jog.

Trilateral talks involving Russia, the United States and Ukraine have been suspended, the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday, signaling another setback in efforts to revive broader negotiations. Peskov said the process “is on pause,” though Moscow and Kiev remain in contact on humanitarian matters, including prisoner exchanges and the return of fallen soldiers’ bodies.
Ukraine also said consultations had been delayed rather than canceled. The Foreign Ministry’s spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi said Wednesday that several rounds of talks were postponed as the ongoing war with Iran has diverted Washington’s attention and slowed diplomatic efforts.
Despite the pause in formal meetings, communication between the sides continues. Major disputes remain unresolved, particularly over territory. Moscow demands Ukraine withdraw from portions of its eastern regions, and Kiev has rejected those terms.
