Former lieutenant general Mark Weatherington, of the US Air Force, and a B2 pilot, discussed what it’s like flying a B-2 Spirit stealth bomber, how pilots are trained, and what it’s like to actually fly the massive airplanes. He also discussed bringing in new pilots, mid air refueling, and long haul 30 hour flights, and the Iran missions recently in Midnight Hammer.

From Wikipedia on the B2:

The Northrop B-2 Spirit is an American heavy strategic bomber that uses low-observable stealth technology to penetrate dense anti-aircraft defenses. It is often referred to as a stealth bomber.[3][A]
A subsonic flying wing with a crew of two, the B-2 was designed by Northrop (later Northrop Grumman) as the prime contractor, with Boeing, Hughes, and Vought as principal subcontractors. It was produced from 1988 to 2000.[6][1][7] The bomber can drop conventional and thermonuclear weapons,[8] such as up to eighty 500-pound class (230 kg) Mk 82 JDAM GPS-guided bombs, or sixteen 2,400-pound (1,100 kg) B83 nuclear bombs. The B-2 is the only acknowledged in-service aircraft that can carry large air-to-surface standoff weapons in a stealth configuration.
Development began under the Advanced Technology Bomber (ATB) project during the Carter administration, which cancelled the Mach 2-capable B-1A bomber in part because the ATB showed such promise, but development difficulties delayed progress and drove up costs. Ultimately, the program produced 21 B-2s at an average cost of $2.13 billion each (~$4.17 billion in 2024), including development, engineering, testing, production, and procurement.[9] Building each aircraft cost an average of US$737 million,[9] while total procurement costs (including production, spare parts, equipment, retrofitting, and software support) averaged $929 million (~$1.11 billion in 2023) per plane.[9] The project's considerable capital and operating costs made it controversial in the U.S. Congress even before the winding down of the Cold War dramatically reduced the desire for a stealth aircraft designed to strike deep in Soviet territory. Consequently, in the late 1980s and 1990s lawmakers shrank the planned purchase of 132 bombers to 21.
The B-2 can perform attack missions at altitudes of up to 50,000 feet (15,000 m); it has an unrefueled range of more than 6,000 nautical miles (11,000 km; 6,900 mi) and can fly more than 10,000 nautical miles (19,000 km; 12,000 mi) with one midair refueling. It entered service in 1997 as the second aircraft designed with advanced stealth technology, after the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk attack aircraft. Primarily designed as a nuclear bomber, the B-2 was first used in combat to drop conventional, non-nuclear ordnance in the Kosovo War in 1999. It was later used in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, and Iran.[10][11]
The United States Air Force has nineteen B-2s in service as of 2024.[12] One was destroyed in a 2008 crash,[13] and another was likely retired from service after being damaged in a crash in 2022.[12] The Air Force plans to operate the B-2s until 2032, when the Northrop Grumman B-21 Raider is to replace them.[14]

Chris Cuomo breaks down the political fallout from the recent United States strikes on Iranian nuclear sites. With a ceasefire now in place, the operation may look like a success, but in Washington, it has sparked a fresh wave of partisan outrage, calls for impeachment and media blame games. Cuomo dives into what is known, what isn’t and why asking questions for reporters who risked their lives to cover war has suddenly become controversial.

Reporting from Doha, NewsNation’s Brian Entin delivers an exclusive report with a high-level Qatari official in a rare sit-down interview with a key player behind the ceasefire deal between Iran and Israel.

Then, Illinois Democratic Congressman Mike Quigley discusses the politics of pushing diplomacy and questioning the effectiveness of U.S. strikes on Iran nuke sites.

Retired Brigadier Gen. Mark Kimmitt weighs in on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s latest missive against national media. Plus, Stephen A. Smith talks about the dysfunction of America’s two-party system.

Beirut, Lebanon is a city that has been in a full-blown national crisis for almost a decade. The currency crisis, the never-ending airstrikes, the revolution, and the 2020 Beirut explosion are just some of the seeming never-ending catastrophes that the Lebanese people have had to face.

But in the midst of all the chaos, destruction, and uncertainty: it's people are resilient. Join me as I spend 24 hours exploring the best food, culture, history and people of Beirut.

In an exclusive interview with India Today, Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed global geopolitics, stating "India is a major global player, not a British colony." He praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a "reliable person" who doesn't succumb to pressure. Putin discussed the Ukraine war, asserting "Kiev is the mother of all Russian cities" and claiming Russia was forced to support eastern Ukraine. He also commented on U.S. relations, revealing details of a five-hour meeting with Donald Trump's envoys and acknowledging American companies' desire to resume cooperation. Regarding the economy, Putin confirmed that over 90% of Russia-India transactions are in national currencies and clarified that a single BRICS currency is not an immediate goal. The discussion also covered future collaborations in high technology and the Gaza conflict, with Putin advocating for an independent Palestinian state.

In this episode, we break down why the U.S. Navy is not just a fleet. It’s a global warfighting system built on Carrier Strike Groups, nuclear submarines, and an industrial logistics engine no rival can truly replicate.
Then we go deeper into the real threat to American sea power in 2025 and 2026: not bigger ships, but visibility. Sensors, data, AI, and swarm drones designed to turn the ocean into a transparent battlefield and carriers into hunted targets.
So the question is unavoidable.
If the U.S. Navy is unmatched, why is it racing like it can lose?

Chef Vincent Williams is back to tackle all those questions you had about fried chicken and running a restaurant! After sharing his journey from working at a chicken plant at 17 to building Honey's Kettle into a million-dollar business, he's here to fill in the gaps.

You asked, and he's answering: from nailing down his recipes and picking the perfect location, to making his restaurant stand out in a packed food scene. He'll break down what worked, what didn't, and why.

This time, he's diving deeper into how Honey's Kettle became a true family business. His wife runs the operations, his son grew up learning every part of the business, and even staff who aren't related feel like they're part of the family.

In his 40 years in the business, Chef Vinny's seen plenty of ups and downs. He's opening up about the tough lessons, the mistakes that could've sunk him, and how he pushed through when things got rough.

If you're dreaming of opening your own restaurant but working with a tight budget, Chef Vinny's got real, practical advice to share. No sugarcoating, just straight talk about turning a small start into a successful business that brings in seven figures a year.

Gold is rarely discovered by accident. Long before gold is recovered, refined, or extracted, nature quietly leaves behind patterns that reveal exactly where it came from.
In this in-depth documentary, you’ll learn how to read river rocks, sediment behavior, and geological flow patterns to understand where gold is most likely to be found upstream. Rather than focusing on tools or techniques, this video explains the natural decision-making process of gold itself — how weight, erosion, and time shape its final resting place.
By combining natural observation, geological logic, and real-world examples from North American rivers, this film shows why most prospectors unknowingly walk past gold every day. The signs are visible — but only if you know how to interpret them.
This is not a shortcut, a trick, or a get-rich-quick method. It’s a calm, professional explanation of how gold reveals itself long before anyone ever tries to extract it.
If you want to understand gold the way experienced geologists do — before you ever touch a pan or a tool — this video will change how you see rivers forever.

Josh Krajcik never looked like the guy who was supposed to make it this far.
And that’s EXACTLY why his X Factor journey hit so hard.

From the first note of “At Last,” his voice stopped the room. While others played it safe, Josh went the opposite direction, and kept surviving every round!

This compilation follows Josh Krajcik’s entire X Factor USA Season 1 run, audition to finale, showing how an unlikely contender slowly became impossible to ignore. Every risky song. Every live show. Every moment where it felt like this might be the week he’d fall… and didn’t.

If you love talent show stories where the underdog doesn’t beg for attention but earns it, this is one of the most satisfying journeys the show ever had!
