On March 15, 2025, around 2:30 a.m. on South Padre Island, Homeland Security Investigations agents assisting local police after a crash ordered Martinez to stop his car.

Newly released records reveal DHS did not publicly link its agents to the shooting for eight months, drawing criticism from Texas lawmakers demanding footage and a probe. Texas Rangers continue investigating, with a grand jury review pending.

A post showing the decommissioned USS America surviving weeks of intense Navy attacks in 2005 has fueled arguments that U.S. carriers like the nuclear-powered Abraham Lincoln are nearly unsinkable. Critics, including ex-U.N. inspector Scott Ritter, counter that Iran's hypersonic Fattah missiles could overwhelm defenses in a saturation attack, especially in confined waters. The carrier operates with a full strike group amid U.S. military buildup to deter Iran during Geneva nuclear talks, while Supreme Leader Khamenei boasts of weapons to sink American warships. Tensions remain high but no shots have been fired, with history showing carriers enduring past threats.

Key Takeaway

The USS Abraham Lincoln patrols the Arabian Sea, just 700 kilometers from Iran, as rhetoric flies about whether Tehran's missiles could send it to the bottom.
