The whistleblower's testimony alleged that commanders at the highest levels knew about suspected executions as early as 2011, but chose to bury the claims rather than report them to military police. The evidence suggests the inaction allowed the killings to continue for at least two more years, raising questions about accountability within one of the world's best training and lethal military units.

Trump had himself a little crash out on Truth Social on Wednesday following the news, as he is wont to do. "The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they'll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they've done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects," he wrote.

And what that means is that every American is less able to secure safe and stable housing.
Alphabet's health tech subsidiary, Verily, used the health data of more than 25,000 patients without authorization and actively covered up those violations, a former company executive alleges. The executive, Ryan Sloan, claims Verily fired him after he discovered breaches of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, and reported his concerns to the company's senior management. Patient data in the U.S. is protected under HIPAA, which ensures the sensitive information cannot be disclosed without a patient's consent.
