Suspects of drone theft at Fort Campbell via U.S. Army Fort Campbell FB Page
The U.S. Army has identified the two suspects in the theft of two drones at Fort Campbell in Kentucky.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, in a post on the U.S. Army Fort Campbell Facebook Page last week, a spokesperson revealed that four Skydio X10D Drone Systems were stolen from the 326th Division Engineer Battalion building.
The drones were originally stolen in November of last year, but Fort Campbell released information and surveillance photos to the public on March 11.
Now, officials at Fort Campbell have announced that the suspects behind the drone theft have been identified, but have not released their names.
The officials at Fort Campbell added, “The individuals responsible had authorized access to the military installation and the building, and they defeated the locks on the storage cages to perpetrate this theft. This was a targeted act, not a random breach of security.”
Fort Campbell provided an update to the investigation into four stolen drones from a government building in late November 2025.
Fort Campbell reported that the Department of the Army Criminal Investigative Division investigation led to the identification of two suspects, credible evidence, and the possible whereabouts of the missing quadcopter drones.
“This is an active criminal investigation, and we are working diligently to resolve this matter,” Fort Campbell said. “This is an active criminal investigation, and we are working diligently to resolve this matter.”
Fort Campbell is adamant there is no threat to the public and that the stolen drones were equipped only with small cameras.
The drones stolen were high-tech Skydio X10D drones, which are unmanned aerial systems designed with modular payload capability.
The U.S. Army 7th Army Training Command, last July, used the Skydio X10D to drop a live M67 grenade for the first time at the Grafenwoehr Training Area in Germany.

The news of the theft came around the same time ABC News reported that the FBI had released a bulletin that warned California police departments that Iran may try to attack the Golden State with drones.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has since slammed ABC News report on a potential drone attack in California as “reckless” and “false.”
Thomas Massie grills Attorney General Pam Bondi in House Judiciary Committee Hearing
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi for a deposition on Tuesday as she comes under continued scrutiny for her handling of the Epstein files and potential noncompliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
The deposition is scheduled for April 14, 2026.
Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche are also scheduled to give a private briefing to Oversight Committee members on Wednesday.
In an attached letter to Bondi, Comer expressed concern over noncompliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed into law by President Trump last November, and “possible mismanagement” of the investigation into Epstein and his associates.
“The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform (Committee) is reviewing the possible mismanagement of the federal government’s investigation of Mr. Jeffrey Epstein and Ms. Ghislaine Maxwell, the circumstances and subsequent investigations of Mr. Epstein’s death, the operation of sex-trafficking rings and ways for the federal government to effectively combat them, the ways in which Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell sought to curry favor and exercise influence to protect their illegal activities, and potential violations of ethics rules related to elected officials,” Comer wrote in the letter.
“The Committee has questions regarding the Department of Justice’s handling of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and his associates and its compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. As Attorney General, you are directly responsible for overseeing the Department’s collection, review, and determinations regarding the release of files pursuant to the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the Committee therefore believes that you possess valuable insight into these efforts.”
This comes after Bondi’s tranwreck testimony on the Epstein files last month, where she got grilled by the Democrats, refused to answer questions, was accused of perjury, and came off as unhinged and terrified throughout the roughly 5-hour-long hearing.
The Gateway Pundit reported on one exchange between Bondi and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), where she desperately attacked him when backed into a corner on why the Department of Justice redacted the names of Epstein coconspirators like billionaire and former Victoria’s Secret CEO Les Wexner.
Instead of answering his questions, Bondi lost it and shouted, “This guy has Trump derangement syndrome!” She then called him “a failed politician,” later slamming him as a “hypocrite.”
Bondi claimed in her report that “No records were withheld or redacted ‘on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary,” but several Lawmakers weren’t pleased.
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) later accused Bondi of “withholding information and files” and enabling Democrats to “paint the President in a bad light when his actions were the opposite.”
“So poorly managed, heads should roll,” Mace said of Bondi’s handling of the Epstein files. “SHAME ON THE DOJ.”
Joe Kent, the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned his post Tuesday in response to the war in Iran, which he argued was unjustified.
“Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby,” Kent wrote in a post on X announcing his resignation, effective the same day. “As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as a Gold Star husband who lost my beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives.”
Kent concluded by urging President Donald Trump to “reflect upon what we are doing in Iran, and who we are doing it for.” Kent’s resignation is another signal of the ongoing struggles Trump is having with consolidating domestic support for the Iran war. The administration has made a number of statements that commentators have interpreted as showing that the motivating cause of the war was Israel. This week, Trump told reporters “You could make the case that maybe we shouldn’t even be there at all… It’s almost like we do it for habit—but we also do it for some very good allies that we have in the Middle East.”
A father in Maine has filed a lawsuit against his son’s school district, accusing them of failing to provide children an opportunity to recite the Pledge of Allegiance during the school day.
The lawsuit, filed against the Falmouth School Department and Superintendent Steve Nolan, alleges that the district is violating Maine law, according to the Portland Press Herald.
The statute in question dates back to 2011 and is posted on the legislature’s official website.
“A school administrative unit shall allow every student enrolled in the school administrative unit the opportunity to recite the Pledge of Allegiance at some point during a school day in which students are required to attend,” the statute reads. “A school administrative unit may not require a student to recite the Pledge of Allegiance.”
The plaintiff, Christopher Hickey, reportedly filed the lawsuit on behalf of his son, Clayton, a 10th-grader who has attended Falmouth High School for two years.
WGME-TV cited an affidavit from Clayton stating that neither he nor his classmates were ever given a chance to recite the pledge during the school day.
In addition to the school providing an opportunity for all students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in a structured way, Hickey also wants a letter of apology from the Falmouth School Department.
The courts will likely have to determine what constitutes an “opportunity to recite the Pledge;” however, the lawsuit states that it has not been shared over the school’s intercom or led by teachers in the classroom, according to the Portland Press Herald.
Local Army veterans spoke with WGME-TV and said such expressions of patriotism are vital to a healthy nation.

“Our students don’t get enough citizenship instruction. And that’s the least they can do, I think,” said Army veteran Chris Winne. “You know, it represents so much to not only veterans, but the entire community and our country. And so I don’t see any bad in it, only good.”
“I think you should always do the Pledge of Allegiance in the high school,” Falmouth Army veteran James Richardson added. “It’s what makes America America. That’s part of [taking] pride in our country.”

Colorado mom Erin Lee (L)joins Stinchfield Tonight on Real America’s Voice/Image: Video screenshot.
In 2023, Colorado parents sued Poudre School District after discovering sixth-graders were being recruited to a secret after-school “art” club that turned out to be a gender and sexuality awareness club.
In Lee v. Poudre School District R-1, two families, Jonathan and Erin Lee, and Nicolas and Linnaea Jurich, sued the district, alleging it groomed their daughters into the LGBTQ cult through secretive Gender and Sexualities Alliance (GSA) meetings.
The lawsuit was dismissed, and on April 22, 2025, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that dismissal.
When the lawsuit was initially filed, Lee told Fox News’ Harris Faulkner,”The art teacher had invited in an outside presenter into the classroom that day, and this woman did absolutely unthinkable things with the kids.”
The presenter also told students they could describe themselves as “queer” if they had not yet figured out their sexuality.
“She talked to them about polyamory. She told them that these new labels that they had just adopted made them more likely to commit suicide and talked to them extensively about suicide,” she continued.
The presenter also allegedly discussed puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, warning those in attendance that their parents may not be “safe” people to turn to as they struggle with certain identities.
“She [the speaker] runs an organization called ‘Skittles’ for kids five to eleven to discuss gender and sexuality,” Lee said, noting that her daughter’s art teacher pulled her aside and told her “you don’t have to tell your parents.”
Lee joined Grant Stinchfield on Real America’s Voice to share her family’s journey.
Grant Stinchfield: Erin, it’s a pleasure and thank you for the fight that you’re putting up. I’ve been watching you now over the last few days and I apologize, not longer than that, but man, oh man, you are fighting for children in Colorado and beyond. Can you tell me briefly the story of your daughter, what happened and why that sparked such a fight in you, Erin?
Erin Lee: Yeah, it’s been almost 5 years now that my daughter had just turned 12 and was lured into this secret gender and sexuality club disguised as an art club where an outside organization called ‘Skittles’ told her, if you’re not comfortable if you’re uncomfortable in your body, that means you’re transgender.
And if you don’t know who you’re attracted to, that means you’re queer.
And they glitter bombed her with toys and celebration, taught her explicit concepts like polyamory, and it can— like, told her over and over, do not tell your parents about this meeting. So repeatedly emphasize, your parents might not be safe, you don’t have to tell them.
And when she came home and told us, we were vilified. So the school district actually sent in a mandated reporter for a well-child check on our family because we weren’t instantly affirming of her trans identity that they put on her in this secret meeting we weren’t even supposed to know about.
Grant Stinchfield: So it’s stunning to me because you would think common sense tells you that any changes in a child you would want to have discussed with the parents. I don’t know if your child was showing any changes or not, but it was the exact opposite that happened. They tried to do something without your knowledge, and then vilified you for it all. What is the outcome of all this? I know your case had gone to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court refused to take it up, so you really have not had any justice with this yet?
Erin Lee: Yeah, and our daughter wasn’t showing signs. She was just a normal girl in the midst of COVID starting puberty, of course she was uncomfortable in her 12-year-old body, and they just completely took advantage of her vulnerability.
And so we did— we— when we went public, there were so many other families that came forward that there are multiple families on our lawsuit that Pam Bondi took and went all the way to the Supreme Court. They didn’t take it up, but I want to believe that we put a crack in the dam for the families behind us.
There are two other cases that sit before SCOTUS from Massachusetts and Florida, very similar nature, secret school transitions. And so they did— three justices led by Alito put out a decision that they didn’t take the case, but they recognized this was troubling and tragic and that it had to be addressed by the lower courts, that this was an issue being dodged and of great national importance. So this, unfortunately, is such a ubiquitous issue. What happened to my family is not uncommon. It’s almost like it’s the rule, not the exception, that parents are left in the dark, our kids are being sexually sexualized.
And if they show any signs of being uncomfortable in their body, then they’re automatically labeled as transgender, and we’re left out of the equation. So we have not had justice for our school district.
Grant Stinchfield: You mentioned Justice Alito and his writings here. Let me put that up on the screen. Cut 7. He says, quote, “I remain concerned that some federal courts are tempted to avoid confronting a particularly contentious constitutional question: whether a school district violates parents’ fundamental rights when, without parental knowledge or consent, it encourages a student to transition to a new gender or assist in that process.”
He goes on to say, “The troubling and tragic allegations in this case underscore the great and growing national importance of the question that these parent petitioners present.”
Now, he says he remains concerned. Concerned is an understatement, Erin, because if you are correct that— and I believe you are, by the way— that this is going on still in states across this country, something has to be done to protect these children, Erin.
Erin Lee: Yes. And these are our fundamental rights. I’m glad they addressed it that way. Yes, they’re constitutionally protected. I believe our Founding Fathers are rolling in their grave at the thought that this would even need to be explicitly written into the Constitution, that parents parent their children, not the government.
But that’s what’s happening on so many levels: parents are being left in the dark, the government thinks they know what’s best for our kids, and if we’re not willing to go along with it, we’re the enemy.
In fact, there are over a dozen families here in Colorado, mostly dads, who have lost custody of their kids for not being willing to go by the transgender identity, who either lost full or partial custody of their children because they’re not willing to do what the government has done in secret with their kids. So I know it’s happening everywhere, and it’s happened in red and blue states alike.
Grant Stinchfield: You know, it’s such a shame because Colorado is such a great state, but they’ve gone off the deep end. No offense to you living there, but, you know, Real Americans Voice, our headquarters are in Denver. Colorado’s gone off the deep end, and it is such a shame that this is going on.
Last question real quick. Did anything happen to the teacher that tried to do this, that literally, I would say, tried to mentally kidnap your child?
Erin Lee: The teacher was celebrated and promoted.
I found through public record requests where they apologized to her for me going public that she had to suffer that kind of attention.
She’s now still in charge of this club five years later, and she’s also in charge of the student council overnights that happen at the facility where she’s alone with middle school children.
So she has been celebrated. The school district has doubled down on transitioning kids and lying to parents as young as 8. I found evidence of them transitioning an 8-year-old after parents objected. Encourage people to look into Laurel Elementary School. So it’s still common practice, and they celebrate the teachers who are doing it.
Grant Stinchfield: And your daughter’s doing great.
Erin Lee: She’s doing great. It’s been 5 years. Yep. She’s one of the lucky ones that came out on the other side.

The Lee family made a documentary about their experience called Art Club, which can be seen below.
Paul Ehrlich died last week. I doubt he would have minded, considering he thought there should have been a lot fewer people on earth. Really, if he wanted to put his money where his rhetoric was, he should have checked out a bit earlier.
Ehrlich, who passed away at the age of 93 on Friday, was a Stanford University biologist best known for his 1968 book “The Population Bomb.” The thesis was effectively in the title — overpopulation would kill us all.
“The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now,” he wrote in the book, predicting that four billion humans would die.
Well, this didn’t work out as planned. In his obituary, The New York Times did put an “austere religious scholar” twist on his legacy, noting in the subtitle that “he faced criticism when his predictions proved premature.”
I guess they figured that was defensible because there are over eight billion people on the planet now and they’ll all die eventually, if not writhing from hunger due to that pesky population bomb that never happened.
Ehrlich was being asked what the government should do to control the population. He said he was “against government interference in our lives” to start with, which turned out to be just as much of a lie as the rest of his life’s work.
“The very first thing the government should do is try and take the pressure off to reproduce,” Ehrlich said. “There’s a lot of pressure in our society now to reproduce.”
“If you’re single, people try and push you into getting married,” he added. “The idea is that nobody should escape. So there’s pressure to get married.”
“Young couples, if they don’t have children, people say, gee, they must be sterile,” he continued. “They never say, gee, maybe they like good wine and going to the theater and so on. They prefer that to scraping diapers. So there’s pressure to have children.”
At least in that respect, Ehrlich has succeeded, although not through government intervention: We’ve convinced an entire generation that they should care about fleeting pleasures more than the greatest joys in life, although we’ve made them feel guilty about that, too. (Wine has a carbon footprint, after all!)
However, Ehrlich wanted more — he wanted White House intervention.
“The president ought to say, from now, here on out, no intelligent, patriotic American family ought to have more than two children, preferably one, if you’re starting a family now,” Ehrlich said. “Not any law, but just say this is what responsible people do.”
And then he said there should be a law — of the most ridiculous sort.
“He ought to make the FCC see to it that large families are always treated in a negative light on television, wherever they appear,” Ehrlich continued. “There ought to be a tremendous amount of television time devoted to spot commercials, the sort we’ve had against smoking. But ones in the middle, say, in the middle of ‘The Beverly Hillbillies,’ you get a scene which shows Los Angeles in the smog and it just says, ‘This city has a fatal disease. It’s called overpopulation.’ So long.”
Here’s Paul Ehrlich in 1970 saying that the government needs to become increasingly tyrannical to stop child birth.
Says the gov’t should use the FCC to force negative depictions of large families and eventually “throw you in jail if you have too many” children. pic.twitter.com/R7iOB2PBbO
I don’t know whether that suggestion would be silly if it weren’t so dangerous, or dangerous if it weren’t so silly. Can’t you picture the theme song, revised? “Come and listen to a story ’bout a man named Jed / poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed / and rightly so, because he didn’t abort his kids and get sterilized / don’t be like Jed, or else we’ll all be dead / you filthy breeders.”
No, that “population bomb” he predicted never materialized — nor did any of his other doomsday prophecies, of which there are too many to catalogue here. However, he was taken seriously by enough people to make life for those on this earth — especially the poorest and the unborn — unimaginably worse.
By the end, he seemed to be pushing austerity for austerity’s sake, still warning of a “sixth mass extinction” — an event which would kill off 75 percent of the species on the planet — as late as 2023.
And, when people pointed out that he’d been wrong about literally everything else he’d built his life’s work on, his response was: “Sure I’ve made some mistakes, but no basic ones.”
60 Minutes extinction story has brought the usual right-wing out in force. If I’m always wrong so is science, since my work is always peer-reviewed, including the POPULATION BOMB and I’ve gotten virtually every scientific honor. Sure I’ve made some mistakes, but no basic ones
Yeah, except for that prediction that four billion people would die of hunger in the 1970s and 1980s, or any of his other major predictions, no “basic” mistakes whatsoever.
It’s bad form to actively wish death upon people. But then again, that’s pretty much what Paul Ehrlich spent his career doing, all supposedly in the name of making the world more livable. The nicest thing I can say regarding his passing is that 93 years into his tenure upon this earth, he finally succeeded, quite accidentally, in addition by existential subtraction, albeit at the smallest possible scale.
President Trump holds bilateral meeting with Taoiseach of Ireland Micheál Martin – March 17, 2026
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 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 instead 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.”
WATCH:
John Decker: What progress have you made, Mr. President, in getting America’s allies to assist the US in escorting those oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz?
Trump: You know, despite the fact that we help them so much, we have thousands of soldiers in different countries all over the world, and they don’t want to help us, which is amazing. I mean, amazing. And I didn’t do a full court press because I think if I did, they probably would be but we don’t need help. You know, we’ve, we’ve that war is, has been long prosecuted, as far as I’m concerned, almost from day one. We knocked out many of these things. We knocked out the Navy, essentially in a couple of days. But I was surprised to see that NATO, while they agreed that it was a very important thing to do— they agree fully, nobody said, Oh, you shouldn’t do it.
They would have had a nuclear weapon within one month of when we had the B2 bombers bomb, the nuclear potential, the I call it the nuclear dust. So, I think NATO is making a very foolish mistake. And I’ve long said that, you know, I wonder whether or not NATO would ever be there for us. So, this is a, this was a great test because we don’t need them, but they should have been there. The other thing is, and I think, you know, very important, we didn’t have to be there for Ukraine. You know, Biden chose to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on Ukraine.
And I guess the head of Germany just made a statement that, well, they weren’t involved, and they have nothing to do with the war, but at the same time, they think we did a great thing by knocking them out. Nobody wants to have, nobody wants to have Iran or anybody, but nobody wants to Iran with a nuclear because these people are crazy. They’re absolutely crazy and they’re vicious, violent. I mean, they killed. Think of it, they killed, now I hear it’s about 41,000 people. They put out a notice two days ago, anybody that protests will be immediately shot and killed. That’s pretty tough stuff. So, everyone agrees with us, but they don’t want to help. And we, you know, we as the United States have to remember that because we think it’s pretty shocking.
Earlier, Trump put out a statement on Truth Social, slamming the NATO alliance a “one way street” and declaring that their assistance won’t be needed.
“I am not surprised by their action, however, because I always considered NATO, where we spend Hundreds of Billions of Dollars per year protecting these same Countries, to be a one way street — We will protect them, but they will do nothing for us, in particular, in a time of need. Fortunately, we have decimated Iran’s Military — Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti-Aircraft and Radar is gone and perhaps, most importantly, their Leaders, at virtually every level, are gone, never to threaten us, our Middle Eastern Allies, or the World, again!” Trump said.
“Because of the fact that we have had such Military Success, we no longer ‘need,’ or desire, the NATO Countries’ assistance — WE NEVER DID! Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea. In fact, speaking as President of the United States of America, by far the Most Powerful Country Anywhere in the World, WE DO NOT NEED THE HELP OF ANYONE!”
Full statement below:
The United States has been informed by most of our NATO “Allies” that they don’t want to get involved with our Military Operation against the Terrorist Regime of Iran, in the Middle East, this, despite the fact that almost every Country strongly agreed with what we are doing, and that Iran cannot, in any way, shape, or form, be allowed to have a Nuclear Weapon. I am not surprised by their action, however, because I always considered NATO, where we spend Hundreds of Billions of Dollars per year protecting these same Countries, to be a one way street — We will protect them, but they will do nothing for us, in particular, in a time of need. Fortunately, we have decimated Iran’s Military — Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti-Aircraft and Radar is gone and perhaps, most importantly, their Leaders, at virtually every level, are gone, never to threaten us, our Middle Eastern Allies, or the World, again! Because of the fact that we have had such Military Success, we no longer “need,” or desire, the NATO Countries’ assistance — WE NEVER DID! Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea. In fact, speaking as President of the United States of America, by far the Most Powerful Country Anywhere in the World, WE DO NOT NEED THE HELP OF ANYONE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Zelensky needs his allies to focus on his war effort, which is not happening.
Kiev Regime leader visits London and Madrid to seek continued priority support.
To say that Kiev regime leader Volodymyr Zelensky has left Ukraine for yet another tour of European nations in search of more and more support may seem like ‘business as usual’ – but this time is different.
For years, wherever he went, Zelensky was the belle of the ball. All the Western world’s attention was focused on his war effort.
But now the conflict in Iran has completely sucked the air out of the news cycle and is occupying the minds of the leaders of the donor nations.

So, now, even a pro-Ukraine outlet like The Telegraph ridicules his newest tour with a headline that would be unthinkable a couple of years ago: ‘Zelensky’s ‘don’t forget about me’ tour exposes panic in Ukraine.’
Tomorrow (12), the former comedian will fly to Madrid for talks with Spain’s Pedro Sánchez.
But the fact remains: Ukraine’s fate lost the world’s interest, as the air-defense missiles that Kiev so need are being exhausted against Iranian attacks across the Middle East.
“Nobody in London, Brussels or any other European capital is saying Ukraine is no longer important, but Western diplomats and officials are struggling to free up enough bandwidth to deal with two simultaneous major crises. The war in Iran has engulfed the Trump administration enough for it to move the US-mediated peace talks down its list of priorities.”
