Sen. Rand Paul gave a huge
speech on the Senate floor opposing the
arming of Syrian rebels, calling it a mistake that will
destabilize the region even further. His warnings may be falling on
deaf ears.- Director of Intelligence
James Clapper says his now-famous lie to the Senate that the
National Security Agency was not collecting data about
millions of Americans wasn’t a lie at all. He just misspoke. This
is his position now after previously saying he gave the “least
untruthful” answer he could give. Pretty ballsy. - The Air Force will change its policy and make the “so
help me God” part of its oath optional. They had courted
controversy when an atheist airman attempted to reenlist and got
into trouble for crossing that part out. - I know we’re all pretty tired of Pharrell Williams’ song
“Happy” by now, but Iran took it a step further and
sentenced a group of citizens to lashes for posting a video of
themselves online dancing along to the music. - British journalists investigating the deaths of Russian
servicemen on the border of Ukraine have been
attacked by unnamed assailants and their recordings
erased. - The Border Patrol is going to
test wearing body cameras in response to complaints about
misconduct and lack of transparency.
