“DOJ Agrees to Pay $1.25 Million Settlement to Michael Flynn”
The US Justice Department has agreed to pay $1.25 million to Michael Flynn, a conservative activist and former official in the first Trump administration who sought millions of dollars from the government for what he alleged was a wrongful prosecution effort, according to a person familiar with the settlement.
Lawyers for the government and for Flynn notified a federal judge in Florida on Wednesday that they had reached an agreement and that it would involve the payment of “settlement funds,” but didn’t publicly disclose the amount or any other terms at the time.
The US Navy sent its two most powerful warships to fight Iran. Both are now gone from the front.
The USS Gerald R. Ford, the most expensive warship ever built at $13.2 billion, left the Red Sea after a fire broke out in its laundry room. That’s the official story. The real story is what a Pentagon testing report quietly revealed at the same time.
The Ford’s jet launch system is unreliable. Its radar is unreliable. Its weapons elevators, the lifts that move bombs and missiles to the flight deck, are unreliable.
Pentagon testers said there is simply not enough data to assess whether the ship can keep operating if it takes enemy fire. Fixes for these combat systems have been identified. Most remain unfunded.
The ship also doesn’t have enough bunks. It needs at least 159 more.
This is the Navy’s flagship. Delivered years late. $13.2 billion. Deployed into a war zone with systems the Pentagon itself cannot certify as combat-ready.
Then there’s the USS Abraham Lincoln. Iran claimed repeatedly that its missiles forced the Lincoln to retreat. The US called it propaganda. What’s not disputed: the Lincoln moved from 350 kilometers off the Iranian coast to over 1,100 kilometers away.
Both carriers are now parked far beyond the range of Iranian anti-ship missiles. The Pentagon calls it “tactical repositioning.” The Ford has been at sea for nearly 11 months, one of the longest carrier deployments in modern US history. Maintenance on nuclear carriers takes months under normal conditions. After a fire, an 11-month deployment, and a backlog of deferred repairs, analysts are now talking about 12 to 14 months out of action.
America went into this war with two carriers. It now has zero operating near the fight.

A heartless automaton that has been programmed to act without feeling has entered the room, accompanied by an AI Robot. Not sure which is which yet.
it would be in iran's best interest to drag the war out and do back channels with whatever democrat candidate looks like they may win in 2028.
