🇺🇸🇺🇦Trump's team asked Ukraine to accept deportees from the United States, The Washington Post reports.
It is unclear from the documents at the newspaper's disposal how Kyiv responded to this "persistent request." But at the moment there is no indication that the proposal was accepted, WP notes.
Captain Chris "Chowdah" Hill is the current interim commander of the USS Harry S Truman. Hill became an online celebrity in 2024 for Pro NATO commentators during the deployment of the USS Dwight D Eisenhower against the Houthis in Yemen. Given that fame, his performance to date is worth mentioning:
▪️An F/A-18 shot down by the USS Gettysburg.
▪️Another F/A-18 lost after falling overboard due to evasive maneuvers due to Houthi fire.
▪️And, today, another F/A-18 lost after an “arresting failure”.
Even more notably, Hill was in command of the Truman during the recent incident of a Houthi ASBM nearly striking the ship (causing one of the aforementioned F/A-18 losses) as well as the 2024 incident where the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower was nearly struck by another ASBM.
Congrats to “Chowdah” on a successful deployment!
