This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck and Sam are first joined by Jon Levine of the Washington Free Beacon to discuss the latest from Israel, including rising regional tensions and the role of U.S. aid, as well as developments with USAID and the New York City mayor’s race. Then journalist and media creator Sagnik Basu shares his journey to the U.S. and unpacks his Pirate Wires piece, “I’m Sorry But You Have to Assimilate.” Finally, Jennifer Sey, former national gymnastics champion and CEO of XX-XY Athletics, talks about the Colorado ballot initiative to protect girls’ sports and ensure fairness and opportunity for the next generation.

President Trump Should Ask for a Declaration of War Against Drug Cartels
President Trump announced that the U.S. military, on his order, had sunk another cartel ship coming from Venezuela. I wrote that this is legal under presidential authorities, but the question is whether it is enough. The president needs more military authority from Congress to stop these cartels. He should ask Congress to authorize the use of force, and Congress should give it to him.
Manhunt ignites in major US city after accused murderer walks free in ‘monumental mistake’: victim’s mother
A manhunt is underway in Oregon as authorities search for an accused murderer who was accidentally released this week due to a clerical error.
Ty Anthony Sage, 26, was reportedly set free from the Multnomah County Detention Center in Portland after posting bail on Monday, according to FOX 12.
Sage reportedly appeared for a hearing last Wednesday, where a judge issued a ruling denying him bail the next day. However, a Sept. 17 release form shows Sage’s bail was set for $5,000 and he was permitted to bail out – a direct violation of the judge’s order.
Soccer Team from George Clooney’s Holiday Town Donates Tournament Winnings to Flood Relief
The world-renowned beauty of Italy’s Lake Como has been turned into a disaster area after a rainstorm pummeled the eponymous city and surrounding towns.
With tens of millions in property damage, the local soccer team—currently experiencing a fairytale season—announced ahead of their match on Wednesday night in the Italian Cup that all proceeds would be donated to flood relief.
Manager Cesc Fabregas made the announcement on Instagram Tuesday, while the team was preparing for a match against Sassuolo.
“My thoughts are with everyone in Como today. Seeing our beautiful lake flood and the damage it has brought is heartbreaking,” he added.
“Como is more than just a city to me, it is home, it is family, it is community. To all the people, families and businesses affected, please know you are not alone.”
In Europe, soccer teams move up and down divisions every season based on performance, with the worst teams dropping down a division, and the best teams being promoted to the division above.
After spending 2003-04 in Serie A, Italy’s top-flight competition, Como had a precipitous fall to the point that it had to be liquidated in 2005 after declaring bankruptcy. Almost two decades would go by before the team from George Clooney’s holiday town made it back to Serie A.
