Adm. Sam Paparo leads the U.S. military’s Indo-Pacific Command. INDOPACOM is responsible for deterring and, if necessary, defeating China in what would be the nation’s largest war effort since 1945.

On Tuesday, Georgia rested its case in the murder trial of Laken Riley, the 22-year-old Georgia nursing student who was allegedly brutally murdered by illegal immigrant Jose Ibarra.

In 2000, on behalf of helicopter pilots, some of whom flew combat missions during the Vietnam War, and others, I sued the National Park Service (NPS) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for regulations that restricted their recreational tours over Grand Canyon National Park (GCNP) in Arizona.  In 1987, Congress mandated that the NPS restore “natural […]
