What do you think of Hegseth calling The Atlantic journalist Jeffrey Goldberg, "a deceitful and highly discredited so-called journalist who has made a profession of peddling hoaxes” after team Trump texted him their top-secret war plans on Yemen?

Above, pelicans in the sea off Mexico’s Baja California Sur dive from the sky in a well-coordinated dance.
