They worked on asteroid deflection missions. Nuclear weapons components. Plasma fusion that could change the world's energy supply. Anti-gravity propulsion. And one by one, since 2022, they have vanished or turned up dead — leaving behind phones, wallets, glasses, and more questions than anyone in Washington wants to answer. As of April 2026, at least 11 individuals connected to America's most sensitive nuclear and aerospace programs are dead or missing. The FBI has now confirmed it is leading a coordinated investigation. The House Oversight Committee has demanded briefings from NASA, the Department of Energy, the Pentagon, and the FBI by April 27. President Trump called it "pretty serious stuff." Here is every confirmed case, what each person was working on, and why the pattern — particularly in New Mexico — is so difficult to explain away. The New Mexico Cluster: Four People, One State, One Year The detail that alarms investigators most isn't the deaths. It...

Their crime, according to the Islamic Republic of Iran, was participating in the January 2026 protests that swept through Tehran and dozens of other cities following the death of a 16-year-old girl in police custody.

What Was on the Touska On April 19, 2026, the USS Spruance — an Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer — intercepted the Iranian-flagged cargo vessel Touska in the Gulf of Oman. The ship was warned for six hours. Its crew ignored every warning. The Spruance then fired several rounds from its 5-inch Mark 45 gun directly into the Touska's engine room, disabling its propulsion. US Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary ...
