Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) on Thursday was hit with yet another report alleging reckless behavior, including hiring numerous sex workers.The House Ethics Committee announced Wednesday that it had opened an investigation into Rep. Mills over several issues, according to a new report. The following day, investigative political reporter Roger Sollenberger dropped a report of his own.In a piece on Substack called "Sex Workers & A Secret Charity: The Story Of Cory Mills’s ‘F------ Bananas’ Afghanistan Mission," he reports, "The embattled Florida Republican’s political origin story is shrouded in its own scandal."According to the report, Mills leans into his Afghanistan mission as a sort of "origin story." But there's more of that tale to be told, according to the veteran reporter."But people familiar with the Afghanistan mission say Mills has never told the full story—and that if he did, the public would have a very different image of him. For one thing, three sources said Mills hired sex workers during the Afghanistan operation, on several occasions," he wrote on Thursday. "The revelations come as Mills finds himself increasingly isolated politically, with a battery of scandals—domestic assault allegations, his military record, and most recently a restraining order for cyberstalking and revenge porn—sparking public rebuke from MAGAfied Republican colleagues."Sollenberger goes on to report that the mission itself succeeded despite the lawmaker."While Mills often casts himself as key to the Afghanistan rescue—including in congressional remarks—three people familiar with the effort said the operation’s success was more in spite of Mills’s involvement than because of it," the report states.He continues:"The team planned to land in Afghanistan, but they were re-routed to Tbilisi, Georgia, where they staged the operation from a hotel and waited for the go signal. In Tbilisi, however, Mills set the team on edge with what three people familiar with the events described as reckless and unprofessional personal behavior. This included hiring sex workers with his friend more than once, even after they were told to stop."“It was every night,” one source said, according to the report. Another person purportedly said, “That happened three nights in a row to the point where I said, ‘I’m done, I don’t want to associate with it.'"According to Sollenberger, "I obtained a photo of Mills with one of the sex workers, which a person with knowledge of the events confirmed as authentic."Read the full piece here.

American troops "pulled up on a Mexican beach" and created a "terrifying standoff," according to a new report.According to at least one news report, "American troops pulled up on a Mexican beach in a dramatic escalation of tensions after Donald Trump threatened to bomb the country.""US 'contractors' arrived by boat on Monday at Playa Bagdad, driving signs into the sand near where the Rio Grande empties into the Gulf of Mexico," the Thursday report states. "Alarmed witnesses quickly alerted officials and heavily armed Mexican security personnel rushed to the scene on trucks mounted with machine guns in a terrifying standoff."The report continues:"The Pentagon, in a deeply embarrassing statement, admitted that its troops were mistaken when they landed on the beach. The Mexican personnel watched as the Americans drove six signs into the ground, which said: 'Warning: restricted area.' Written in English and Spanish, they claimed that the beach was the property of the US Department of Defense and had been declared restricted by 'the commander.' They also said unauthorized access or photography was not allowed in that area and that 'if you are found here, you may be detained and searched.' Mexico's foreign affairs ministry said its navy removed the signs from the sand, which it believed were on Mexican territory."Ex-prosecutor Ron Filipkowski chimed in on social media on Thursday:"Apparently dips--- Hegseth’s 'lethal warfighters' landed inside the Mexican border by mistake and created an international incident."Read more here.Apparently dipshit Hegseth’s “lethal warfighters” landed inside the Mexican border by mistake and created an international incident. pic.twitter.com/iaXFCEorZc— Ron Filipkowski (@RonFilipkowski) November 20, 2025

New details have emerged about a Ukraine peace plan secretly worked up between the U.S. and Russia – and how Trump administration officials intend to impose its conditions.President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff has been drafting the 28-point plan with Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev, according to reporting from Tuesday night, and Politico Playbook reported Wednesday the White House will soon unveil the agreement to end the three-and-a-half year war to an end."So this is one way to distract from the Epstein files," Playbook reported. "A senior White House official [says] they expect a framework for ending the conflict to be agreed by all parties by the end of this month — and possibly 'as soon as this week.'""Buckle up," the report added.Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, along with a pair of four-star general and other senior U.S. military officials, made a highly unusual trip to Kyiv on Wednesday to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy ahead of his talks with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and Trump administration officials said a plan was on the table to end the Russian invasion."But here’s the thing: This new peace plan has seemingly had no direct input from Ukraine, nor from America’s allies in Europe," Playbook reported. "And we have no sense yet of the details, of what’s been hammered out on the thorniest questions around Russia’s seizure of vast swathes of Ukrainian territory, the kidnapping of tens of thousands of Ukrainian children or the security guarantees being offered to Ukraine in the aftermath."The White House feels confident an agreement will be reached because, as administration officials said, Zelenskyy is under too much pressure to turn it down."What we are going to present is reasonable," a senior White House official said.Russian officials apparently agree, and Playbook noted "this sounds ominous."“We feel the Russian position is really being heard," Dmitriev, the Russian envoy. "[This is a proposal] to address the Ukraine conflict, but also how to restore U.S.-Russia ties [and] address Russia's security concerns. It's actually a much broader framework, basically saying, 'How do we really bring, finally, lasting security to Europe, not just Ukraine.'"A senior White House official was asked to comment on Europe's possible input on the agreement and dismissed the issue entirely.“We don't really care about the Europeans,” the official told Playbook. “It's about Ukraine accepting.”
