Donald Trump criticized judges for blocking investigations into government corruption, suggesting that some officials may be receiving kickbacks from long-term federal contracts.

Scott Ritter explains that the U.S. nuclear arsenal of 1,550 weapons is massive overkill, as 400 were originally deemed sufficient to destroy all targets.
