    Capitol Police has issued a correction to say this happened along Constitution, not Independence Avenue. We do not yet know the conditions of the officers or the suspect.

    CRITICAL INCIDENT: USCP is responding to the North Barricade vehicle access point along Independence Avenue for reports someone rammed a vehicle into two USCP officers. A suspect is in custody. Both officers are injured. All three have been transported to the hospital.

    , now that your government admits to this, what do you have to say for yourself?

    Reuter’s “Exclusive” on Eritrean troops in is a figment of the imagination of the reporters who attribute their sources as “anonymous”. If true, US would have publicly announced. So sad to see Reuters become an echo chamber of mendacity.

    Important reporting by as Biden’s Secretary of State and Defense head to Asia. With Iran front and center when it comes to diplomacy, easy to forget how North Korea has continued to develop its nuclear and missile program.

    SCOOP-Biden's administration has attempted to reach out to North Korea's government through multiple channels since mid-February. No response from Pyongyang to the behind-the-scenes diplomatic push.
