On X, U.S. Central Command posted on Friday: "On July 16, U.S. forces successfully destroyed the Chah Bahar Shahid Kalantari Port surveillance tower, part of a maritime surveillance network along Iran’s Gulf of Oman coastline used for decades by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to track and target commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz. The destruction of the tower directly degrades IRGC’s ability to coordinate attacks on innocent civilian crew members. Furthermore, the strike protects freedom of navigation in regional waters for all vessels, except for ships attempting to violate the ongoing U.S. naval blockade against Iran." Stay with SNC as we bring you continued coverage on the conflict with Iran.

President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops in Washington, D.C., has been extended through the end of his current term. The Pentagon says the mission will continue until January 20, 2029, unless the president ends it earlier. Trump initially ordered the deployment in August 2025 as part of his administration’s effort to address crime in the nation’s capital. The administration says crime has fallen since the deployment began, although local officials maintain that crime rates were already declining before troops arrived. National Guard members have assisted law enforcement with arrests, responded to medical emergencies and participated in cleanup and beautification projects across the city.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement's rapid expansion is facing new scrutiny following a deadly shooting involving an ICE officer in Maine. The agency has hired thousands of new officers as the Trump administration works to increase immigration arrests and deportations nationwide. The expansion, however, has raised questions about the agency's hiring practices and whether recruits are receiving adequate background checks before beginning work. The concerns intensified following reports that the ICE officer involved in the Maine shooting had a history of mental health issues, according to relatives who spoke with The Associated Press. ICE says its hiring process includes rigorous vetting and that many of its new recruits have law enforcement or military experience. However, reports that some officers may have started working before their full background investigations were completed have fueled additional questions about the speed of the agency's hiring push.

The United States has expanded its military campaign against Iran, launching new strikes on bridges and a key Iranian port as fighting intensifies across the Middle East. The latest attacks included strikes that collapsed a tower at the port, as President Donald Trump pressures Tehran to loosen its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for global energy shipments. Iran responded with new missile attacks targeting U.S.-allied nations in the region, including Qatar. The renewed fighting follows the collapse of an interim ceasefire reached last month, raising concerns that the conflict could once again escalate into a broader regional war.

In a world where facts are often distorted and truth is hard to come by, one thing is clear: the numbers don't lie. This episode of the Carl Jackson Show delves into the fascinating topic of crime rates and how they're affected by immigration policies. Join Carl as he discusses the latest statistics with John Lot, a renowned expert on crime and immigration. The conversation centers around the idea that Trump's immigration enforcement has led to a significant decrease in violent crime. John shares his insights on how the numbers don't add up when it comes to the FBI's crime statistics, and how some conservatives are misinterpreting the data. He explains that the FBI's measures of violent crime are not always accurate, and that the numbers can be misleading due to various factors such as underreporting and changes in policing policies. John also touches on the importance of photo IDs in voting and how it's a common sense solution that's implemented in many countries around the world. He shares examples from Europe and Latin America where requiring photo IDs has led to increased voter turnout and reduced crime. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of crime and immigration. Tune in to this episode to hear John's expert analysis and Carl's thought-provoking questions. Don't miss this insightful discussion on the intersection of crime, immigration, and politics.
