BREAKING: 🇺🇸🇬🇧 U.S. LONG RANGE STRIKE FORCE BUILDING IN THE UK. More American bombers, including B-1B Lancer and B-52 Stratofortress, are arriving at RAF Fairford. This isn’t routine. A growing share of U.S. bomber power is now within direct range of Iran, enabling faster strikes, sustained operations, and shorter turnaround times. This is how a prolonged air campaign is built, quietly, deliberately, before the headlines catch up. The buildup is real, and accelerating.

NEW: 'America's worst mayor' Tiffany Henyard is now calling on Trump to send troops to Chicago after her father was shot. The former Democrat mayor previously went viral for her horrific financial management. "Yesterday, my father, my hero, was an innocent victim of this random and heartbreaking violence," she said on Facebook. "This tragedy has shaken my family to its core, and unfortunately, it reflects a reality that too many families across our state are facing." "Across the country, communities that have welcomed federal support have experienced measurable reductions in crime," she continued. "Cities such as Memphis, Tennessee; Washington, D.C. and New Orleans, Louisiana during the 2026 Mardi Gras period have all seen positive outcomes through collaboration efforts." "I respectfully urge Governor Pritzker to reconsider working in partnership with President Donald J. Trump to ensure the safety and well-being of the people you were elected to serve."
