The killing of two US National Guard troops and one interpreter – and wounding of other US personnel – in Syria over the weekend forces once again the question: WHY are US troops STILL in Syria?

Desperation? US Sends Fighters Deep Into Gulf of Venezuela
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 10, 2025 | The Liberty Report
The US military sent two US Navy F/A-18 fighters deeper into Venezuela’s area of influence than ever before.

by Daniel McAdams | Dec 3, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Was he there? Was he somewhere else? The White House and Pentagon can’t seem to get the story straight on the “double-tap” murder of survivors of a US extrajudicial killing off the coast of Venezuela in September.

‘Who Ordered The Second Strike?’
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 2, 2025 | The Liberty Report
: President Trump’s shoot to kill policy on boats off the coast of Venezuela has run into serious legal trouble after the media has reported that his Defense Secretary, Hegseth, ordered survivors of a first strike to all be killed as they clung to the wreckage of the boat. “Kill them all,” he was reported to have said. But why are they killing anyone? Are we at war? Also today, NATO slips further into irrelevancy…
