Behind Enemy Lines: U.S. Executes ‘One
of the Most Challenging, Complex Missions
in Special Ops History’ to Save Airman
Posted By: FlyRight, 4/6/2026 4:44:16 AM
The United States executed what officials described as “one of the most challenging and complex” rescue missions in the history of U.S. special operations to recover a downed Air Force officer deep inside Iran after he survived more than 24 hours behind enemy lines — injured during a violent ejection, hunted across mountainous terrain by Iranian forces and civilians, and ultimately located through a high-stakes intelligence effort that initially raised fears of a trap before culminating in a dramatic extraction that forced U.S. forces to destroy their own aircraft. President Donald Trump confirmed the rescue at 12:09 a.m. Sunday on Truth Social, declaring, “WE GOT HIM!”

The U.S. Supreme Court’s consideration of so-called “birthright citizenship” last week has rightly drawn many eyeballs to a high-profile subject involving the rule of law and judiciary. And while the issue is certainly important, there’s another newsworthy story related to the high court that isn’t receiving the attention it deserves.
The New York Times published a seemingly under-the-radar piece on Friday titled, “Liberal Group Warns That Trump Could Have Two More Supreme Court Picks.” Authored by Times reporter Reid Epstein, the article disclosed plans by a far-left organization to disrupt potential Supreme Court nominations should they arise during President Trump’s second term.
The office of Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., offers internships “for college students to gain valuable work experience … [and] absorb the many functions of a Congressional office.” If the growing harassment allegations against the leftist lawmaker and leading Democrat candidate for California governor are true, Congress may want to put the kibosh on Swalwell’s tutelage program for young women.
It seems the accomplice media has been too busy falling all over themselves in their absurd attempt to make Swalwell a martyr of President Donald Trump’s “weaponization of law enforcement” to pay much attention to the women coming forward accusing the swamp rat of inappropriate sexual conduct.
The past five years have seen a massive migration of Americans out of heavily Democratic counties and into ones where Donald Trump won majorities in each of the past three elections. That’s according to an exclusive analysis by Issues & Insights of the latest Census Bureau and election data.
Most analyses of internal migration patterns look only at state-level data. And what they show is that blue states are losing population to red states, and have been for many years.
I&I wanted to go deeper, so we used the latest Census data on migration between counties, and compared that with how these counties voted in the past three presidential elections.

Rep. Eric Swalwell, a top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee and candidate for California governor, relentlessly pressed to release all the Jeffrey Epstein files — even if innocent people were implicated — going so far as to suggest withholding funding to the Justice Department.
“If the president is not implicated, then why not release everything?” Swalwell asked FBI Director Kash Patel in a tense exchange at a congressional hearing late last year that typified his pressure campaign.
But Swalwell’s tone on unlimited transparency shifted markedly last week when he learned the Trump White House might release a long-

The right to keep and bear arms is a human right. Even if most other nations ignore it, having the means to defend yourself is an essential right, even if you elect not to do so. It's like free speech. It's a human right, even if you don't care to speak out about things. But all too often, it's treated like nothing of the sort, even here in the United States. People want to attach things to it that boil down to it becoming a privilege you have to look to the government to grant after a sincere, "Mother, may I?"
For a couple of days, I’ve been contemplating a New York Post report about New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s apparent willingness to saddle New York, a state already drowning in debt, with another $1.5 billion in obligations. How in the world could she be so fiscally irresponsible? However, having read Mike McDaniel’s essay about blue state insolvency, I finally understand what’s going on: She knows (or, at least, assumes) that the bill will never come due. Here’s what the New York Post reported: Gov. Kathy Hochul is weighing a possible deal with a top union to allow public workers from teachers to nurses hired after 2012 to retire at 55 —
Don't look now, but FCC Chairman Brendan Carr and Jim Acosta agree on something: President Donald Trump is "winning" his effort to reshape the media landscape in his second term. Appearing on the "Power Lines" podcast with his fellow ardent leftists Oliver Darcy and Jon Passantino, Acosta glumly proclaimed, "I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out that Donald Trump is winning in his, you know, quest to reshape the media in this country that he's cracked the code on how to hurt the press in the U.S."
Acosta recently testified at a Democrat pseudo-hearing before Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.),
Democrats are losing their grip on reality.
I don’t mean that they’re going crazy. That ship sailed around the time they started saying “sex assigned at birth.”
I mean, they’re literally losing the ability to shape the narratives that determine what most Americans perceive as “reality.” They know it’s happening, and they know exactly who to blame: a Trump-aligned billionaire named David Ellison.
Last year, his film production company Skydance (which gave us the refreshingly patriotic “Top Gun: Maverick”) bought Paramount, giving Ellison ownership of CBS News.
A few months later, he bought news site The Free Press and installed its founder — anti-woke, classical liberal Bari Weiss — as CBS’s editor-in-chief.
Migration advocates claim that “millions” of U.S.-born children, youths, and adults could have their citizenship cancelled if the Supreme Court allows President Donald Trump’s Executive Order barring citizenship for the new children of illegal migrants to stand. Thousands of American babies [born after January 20, 2025] will immediately lose their citizenship,” ACLU Legal Director Cecillia Wang told the nine justices on Wednesday morning. “And if you credit the government’s theory, the citizenship of millions of Americans past, present … could be called into question.”
If Democrats regain unified control of U.S. federal government, pressure to federalize or normalize euthanasia will intensify. Content warning: This article includes content that may not be appropriate for some readers.
Noelia Castillo Ramos, a 25-year-old survivor of multiple sexual assaults, died in Spain by legal euthanasia last week. Her life and death expose the cruelty of the left’s “compassion.” Ramos’ childhood was marred by family problems: her parents’ separation and her father’s alcohol issues. The state placed her in the foster care system when she was about 13 years old.
Despite being on the receiving end of attacks for three weeks and counting, Gulf Arab leaders are making headlines after making it unmistakably clear they have no intention of seeking a ceasefire with Iran. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has laid mines in the Strait of Hormuz, threatening a chokepoint through which roughly 20 percent of the world's oil supply flows, while simultaneously launching missile and drone strikes against Muslim-majority neighbors across the region. The Gulf states' refusal to stand down reflects a hard-won recognition: Iran's jihadi rulers maintain a hit list far beyond Israel and America, including the model for a peaceful Middle East pioneered by the Abraham Accords.

It is absolutely self-evident to me that space exploration is pointless, and the more urgent the crises besetting this planet we live on, the more pointless it becomes. I can see why people got excited about it in the 1960s, back when the world was young and we still thought there might be little green people out there – who wouldn’t want to meet them? Most serious opinion, however, has now settled on the “Where is everybody?” paradox first framed by the physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950. If there is intelligent life anywhere, why has it not sought to make contact? It’s because there isn’t. There’s nothing out there
One of the past decade’s most polarizing figures in American sports will publish a book, nearly 10 years to the day after the moment that dramatically changed, and prematurely ended, his NFL career. Colin Kaepernick has announced plans to publish The Perilous Fight on September 15, 2026, two weeks after the 10-year anniversary of the moment he was first spotted sitting during the national anthem before a preseason game. He’d been sitting during the anthem throughout the 2016 preseason. For the September 1 game, he was in uniform for the first time, making the gesture conspicuous and noticeable. What followed
A Haitian illegal immigrant released into the US by the Biden administration’s lax immigration policies allegedly bludgeoned a Florida mother at a gas station in a brazen daylight attack.
Rolbert Jaochin, 40, is accused of striking the 51-year-old woman multiple times, leaving her to die in the parking lot outside a Chevron gas station in Fort Myers around 7:20 a.m. Friday, according to court records viewed by The Post.
The woman was found by first responders outside the convenience store, not breathing, lying in a pool of blood around her head, according to the documents.
Pope Leo's Flawed War Doctrine
25 replies
Pope Leo XIV used part of his Palm Sunday message to castigate the United States for attempting to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power and threatening the world with mass destruction. In doing so, the "American Pope" confused the real enemy in the war. Addressing thousands in St. Peter's Square, the Pope claimed that God rejects the prayers of leaders who wage war. He called the Iran war "atrocious" violence that cannot be justified by faith. He further said that God doesn't hear the prayers of people whose "hands (are) full of blood."
President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he agreed to suspend planned attacks on Iranian infrastructure for two weeks.
The move was “subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz,” he wrote on Truth Social.
The announcement came less than two hours before his deadline on Iran to either make a deal that includes opening the Strait of Hormuz or else face major attacks on its civilian infrastructure.
Trump wrote that he made the decision “based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan.”
Democrats and several conservative commentators demanded the invocation of the 25th Amendment to remove Trump.Democrats called for the invocation of 25th Amendment to remove President Donald Trump after his latest threat that a "whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again". "Not a single bomb has dropped on America. We cannot kill an entire civilization. This is evil and madness," former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene posted. "We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump. Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our Constitution and the Geneva Conventions," Dem Congressman Ro Khanna said,
Could Marco Rubio be the one to take down the woke and seemingly untouchable Rep. Ilhan Omar?
He seems to think that $40 million fortune of hers came from something different than wine sales from her winery.
Which is shockingly direct. Usually, they don't state things so directly.
But if it's true that Omar ran a pay-to-play refugee operation, it would surely be illegal. And who would be in a position to know this better than Rubio who runs the Department of State and all its adjacents?
With a confident tweet like that, it seems likely that he knows something. What's more, he's been after her for at least six weeks;
The U.S. government is using AI to locate and arrest migrants who are accused of being in the United States illegally. According to several reports, the Department of Homeland Security is hiring a litany of private contractors and giving them the names of thousands of migrants. The contractors are then using artificial intelligence to find the migrants. The process of using AI, public records, databases, online information and surveillance is called “skip tracing.” It’s been used by debt collectors, bail bondsmen and private investigators for years. But reports say DHS is paying private companies billions of dollars to use this process to find migrants for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
After less than three months in office, Virginians are expressing displeasure with Virginia’s Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s tenure thus far.
A Washington Post–George Mason University Schar School poll shows Spanberger with the highest disapproval rating at this point in her term than any Governor, from either party, since 1994.
Under Spanberger’s leadership, Democrats have championed a slew of leftist policie
Iranian authorities are urging young people, students, artists, athletes, and volunteer groups to form “human chains” around power plants across the country just hours before President Donald Trump’s deadline for a deal expires, effectively gathering civilians at infrastructure sites the United States has explicitly threatened to strike.
The campaign, promoted through Iran’s Ministry of Sports and Youth, is set for 2 p.m. Tuesday local time — roughly 13 hours before Trump’s 8 p.m. Eastern deadline — and has been branded “Human Chain of Iran’s Youth for a Bright Future.”
U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins sent USDA staff an Easter email that emphasized the story of Jesus being crucified and resurrected, a message that some Christians said alienated them for its overt religiosity. “Happy Easter — He is Risen indeed,” Rollins wrote in the email sent on Good Friday, which CNBC has reviewed and was first to report.
“From the foot of the Cross on Good Friday to the stone rolled away from the now empty tomb, sin has been destroyed,” Rollins wrote.
President Trump used his Truth Social account to warn Iran that its “whole civilization will die tonight” unless “something revolutionarily wonderful” happens.
“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” Trump warned. “However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?”
“We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World,” the president added. “47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!”
