We’re delivering better, faster Metro-North service.
September 23, 2025 – New York, NY – Governor Hochul announced the launch of faster “super-express” trains on the Hudson Line between Poughkeepsie and New York City with the upcoming MTA Metro-North Railroad schedule effective Sunday, Oct. 5.
Ohio Sen. Jon Husted turned his back on embattled Rep. Max Miller after spending the past week dodging the domestic violence allegations embroiling his fellow MAGA Republican.
Husted, a Republican, repeatedly declined to answer reporters' questions and, at one point, reportedly stared off when pressed. That changed Thursday, when he called for the one-time ally to get lost.
In a statement posted to X, Husted said Miller should abandon his campaign and leave office.
"Anyone who commits domestic violence is not fit to serve in Congress," Husted wrote, adding that Miller would be making the right decision by stepping aside as a candidate and resigning to focus on the best interest of his daughter.
Husted, appointed last year to fill JD Vance's Senate seat, had touted Miller's endorsement of his own campaign as recently as February. He now becomes the second Ohio Republican senator to push Miller toward the exits, joining Bernie Moreno — the father of Miller's ex-wife, Emily Moreno.
The allegations, drawn from divorce and police records, include Moreno's claims that Miller threw her against a wall, held a gun to her head and threw hot water at her, with later filings raising alarm over the couple's 2-year-old daughter. Miller denies all of it.
"I categorically deny abusing my former wife," he said in a video, insisting no court or agency has substantiated the claims. He has not been criminally charged, and a county prosecutor declined to pursue the case, citing insufficient evidence.
Miller requested a House Ethics Committee review of himself and has refused to quit even as Trump privately signaled the race looks tough, and the ballot deadline closed in. Beyond Rep. Jim Jordan, who called Miller a good man, Ohio Republicans have mostly stayed silent.
Trump administration officials are slamming their colleagues in the Pentagon after a new report downplayed casualty counts from recent military strikes, per a new report.
The Department of Defense turned over an annual report to Congress with a tally of civilian casualties from military strikes in 2025, and one anonymous Trump administration official called it "a f------ joke," according to reporting by The Intercept.
The report addresses allegations of civilian harm during 2025 military attacks in Somalia and Yemen, as well as boat strikes in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean, where the Pentagon insists it's fighting drug trafficking, The Intercept reported.
However, the report asserts that U.S. attacks killed no civilians during military boat strikes, despite reports that those strikes killed more than 120 civilians, according to The Intercept. A second Trump administration official called the report "a total whitewash" and "sickening," adding that the Pentagon has "absolutely no credibility."
The Intercept noted that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gutted civilian harm mitigation and response programs in the Pentagon. Although the report, which has only been released to Congress but not to the public, denied civilian deaths from the boat strikes, it found that U.S. attacks in the Middle East likely killed or wounded hundreds of civilians, The Intercept reported.
However, the second official said that the report offered "lowball numbers" for civilian casualties from U.S. attacks in Yemen. The report estimated U.S. air and naval strikes in Yemen killed 153 civilians and wounded almost 250, but the Yemen Data Project estimated that 238 civilians were killed and 467 were injured by U.S. attacks.
Both anonymous officials also pointed out that the Pentagon is still reviewing 15 cases of attacks on civilians in Yemen and that the 10-person civilian harm mitigation team at CENTCOM has been reduced to one person. The first official said it "doesn't bode well for the war in Iran," adding, "How will they get through hundreds of cases for Iran if their one civilian harm person still hasn't finished in Yemen?"
