That did not add up, the judge wrote. “The Petitioner,” she wrote, meaning Rodriguez, “was four years old in 2009.”

"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Wednesday criticized news outlets for highlighting the deaths of six US service members in Iran’s retaliatory strikes, suggesting the coverage was unfair because “the press only wants to make the president look bad.”
