Trump congratulates Hegseth on ‘good job’ after deadly Iran wedding strike

 

Tehran launched retaliatory attacks on US military facilities across the region after the latest bombardment

 

US President Donald Trump has congratulated Secretary of War Pete Hegseth over the latest American strikes on Iran, despite one of the attacks hitting a wedding and killing several civilians.

 

Iranian authorities said two women and two children aged four and 16 were killed when a US munition hit a home hosting a wedding in Kuhestak, Hormozgan Province, on Tuesday. At least 67 others were wounded, many of them women and children.

 

According to weapons experts cited by AP and the New York Times, the fragments recovered at the site belonged to an American air-delivered guided munition, most likely a JSOW.

 

The Iranian Red Crescent has since asked the International Criminal Court to investigate the Kuhestak strike, while Iran’s UN envoy has urged the Security Council to condemn it.

 

US Central Command has said it is looking into the reports while insisting that American forces do not target civilians.

 

“You did a good job last night in Iran, by the way. You knocked the hell out of them,” Trump told Hegseth during an event at the White House on Wednesday. “We’re winning that one very big, by the way, in case you haven’t noticed,” he added, claiming that much of Iran’s naval and air capability has been destroyed.

 

Tehran responded to the latest wave of attacks by launching its own ballistic missiles and drones at US military facilities in Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, and the UAE, as well as Erbil in Kurdistan Region, Iraq.

 

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) later claimed to have killed “a number of enemy elements” and destroyed several drones in a missile and UAV attack on Kuwait’s Ali Al Salem Air Base.

 

Kuwait acknowledged that its air defenses had intercepted incoming missiles and drones but reported no casualties. Jordan said ten of 13 ballistic missiles that entered its airspace were intercepted.

 

Tuesday’s wedding strike follows several other incidents in which US attacks have caused heavy civilian casualties in Iran. On the opening day of the war in February, a US strike hit an elementary school in Minab, killing 175 people, most of them children. On the same day, a US strike also killed at least 21 civilians, including seven children, in the southern Iranian city of Lamerd.

 

Tehran has accused Washington of war crimes throughout the conflict, reporting up to 3,000 civilian casualties since the US and Israel launched their campaign against the Islamic Republic in February.

"Save Us From Our Traitor Gov't": Massive Madrid Protests Erupt Over Socialist Regime's Handling Of Ceuta Invasion

 

Spain's Ceuta border invasion has morphed into a major political headache for Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. Tens of thousands of Spaniards took to the streets of Madrid to protest the government's handling of the crisis, potentially accelerating the political shift identified by Nomura analysts, who expect right-wing populist movements to gain traction across Europe during the next 18-month election cycle.

 

About 72,000 migrants, many reportedly military-age men, invaded the Spanish enclave from neighboring Morocco in late July. The scale and apparent coordination of the invasion raised concerns that Ceuta had been targeted through weaponized migration flows. The influx plunged the enclave, which has a population of approximately 84,000, into utter chaos for weeks.

 

By mid-August, a second wave of military-age men attempted to storm the Ceuta border, but that effort largely fell flat.

 

Although most of the migrants were quickly returned or repatriated, the surge overwhelmed local resources, left at least 90 people dead and sparked serious questions about Madrid's open border policies. Italy's continued border checks on arrivals from Spain further show how the Ceuta crisis is reverberating well beyond Spain's borders.

 

About a month and a half after the first migrant wave, the political backlash against Sánchez and the Socialists in Madrid is mounting. AP News reported that more than 50,000 protesters demonstrated against the Socialists over the lack of border enforcement on Wednesday.

 

Waving Spanish flags, demonstrators shouted, "A united Ceuta will never be defeated," "Sánchez to prison" and "Invaders, go home!" referring to the thousands of migrants still in the city.

 

Reuters reported that the number of Spaniards who demonstrated against the Socialist government was closer to 80,000. The protest coincided with the annual Ceuta Day. Demonstrators waved Spanish flags and blew whistles as they chanted, "Ceuta is not for sale; Ceuta must be defended."

Ousted Ukrainian defense chief launches Palantir-backed company

 

The announcement comes days after Mikhail Fedorov unexpectedly emerged as an adviser to Italy’s defense minister

 

Former Ukrainian Defense Minister Mikhail Fedorov has announced the launch of a new military technology company, with Palantir CEO Alex Karp set to become its lead investor.

 

Fedorov has remained highly active in business and politics since Vladimir Zelensky dismissed him in mid-July amid reported tensions with then-commander-in-chief Aleksandr Syrsky. The former minister has also grown increasingly critical of Zelensky, claiming he was removed over his anti-corruption efforts and calling for elections, which have been repeatedly postponed under martial law.

 

Last week, Fedorov unexpectedly emerged as an adviser on “defense innovations” to Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto. He said his role would involve helping Rome “develop modern warfare technologies” and “improve the defense sector.”

 

This week, Fedorov announced building “our own defense tech company” with the CEO of Palantir, a US data-mining and military tech company, which has been providing AI solutions for the Ukrainian military, set to become its key investor. Fedorov shared a video of him meeting with Karp, with the tech mogul showering the ex-minister with praise.

 

“We’ve worked together for a half decade. I have been absolutely inspired by what you and the Ukrainians have pulled off and very and super delighted that we could play a part. And you and your colleagues are launching a company that I think will be defining for the world, bringing your knowledge and acumen about the art of war as a product to allied countries,” Karp told Fedorov.

 

The ties between Fedorov and Karp span well beyond the ex-minister’s six-month tenure as defense minister. Before assuming the post in mid-February, he oversaw Ukraine’s digital transformation in various capacities. Immediately after his dismissal, Fedorov claimed to have been offered a job by Karp.

 

While Western and Ukrainian media have widely portrayed Fedorov as a military visionary focused on drone warfare, the uptick in long-range strikes against Russia during his tenure was primarily built upon the expansion of drone production in Western Europe secured under his predecessors. Fedorov’s repeated pledges to reform Ukraine’s chaotic mobilization drive did not materialize, with the practice of grabbing random men in the streets to force them into the military arguably growing even more violent under Fedorov.

 

The anti-graft crusade supposedly led by Fedorov has remained questionable at best. Multiple media reports suggest he focused more on wresting contracts away from companies associated with Zelensky’s inner circle and steering them to companies linked to him personally than on truly battling corruption. Federov’s background has further fueled suspicion. Before entering Zelensky’s government, he considered himself a businessman while repeatedly facing allegations of running online and phone scams, laundering money through online advertising, and engaging in other fraudulent activities.

Jewish Hag who pushed Feminism on the west for the CIA and Mossad and encouraged the break up of the family is DEAD !

 

Feminist Organizer and Honorary Chair of the Democratic Socialists of America, Gloria Steinem Dead at 92

 

Over her lifetime of activism and writing, radical feminist Gloria Steinem became the face of the women’s movement.

 

On Wednesday, she passed away at 92 at her home in New York City.

 

During her career, Steinem campaigned for Democrats, demeaned men and the traditional family, and celebrated the killing of unborn children.

 

Steinem serves as one of eight Honorary Chairs of Democratic Socialists of America for her work for DSA in the 1980s and ‘90s and one of its predecessor organizations, Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee.

 

Steinem ran afoul of the organization during the 2016 election when she publicly supported Hillary Clinton rather than the DSA-backed Bernie Sanders.

 

Steinem’s pro-abortion views became a key pillar of her belief system, and she even dedicated her book My Life on the Road to a doctor who took the “considerable risk of referring” the then 22-year-old Steinem for an abortion at a time when they were illegal in the U.K.

 

Bill Donohue of The Catholic League notes:

 

Steinem put the lie to the notion that “no one is really pro-abortion.” She liked abortion. In fact, she loved it. That is why she happily endorsed a book by atheist and anti-Catholic activist Anne Nicol Gaylor titled, Abortion Is A Blessing. Did she consider it a “blessing” when she aborted her baby at age 22? Not sure, but it would not surprise to learn that she did. After all, she called “National Abortion Providers Appreciation Day” an occasion that recognizes “acts of kindness.”

 

She was more than pro-abortion—she hated marriage and the family. She made it her ambition to “abolish and reform the institution of marriage.” Anyone who thinks it is a good idea to raise kids absent the institution of marriage is either ignorant of the psychological and social consequences it engenders, or is morally debased beyond recognition.

 

A post on social media shared was part memorial, part fundraising/book launch.

 

“Yesterday, Gloria Steinem passed away peacefully at her home in New York City, surrounded by some of the many who loved her. Gloria’s near-century on earth were years well-lived, and she continued working for equality until the very end.”

 

“Gloria’s greatest gift was her ability to listen to others, to make others feel seen and heard. Her words, actions, and example gave people permission to be their truest selves. Gloria lived true to her independent spirit, always with curiosity and a great sense of humor.”

Local Mom Dragged Into Court For Trying To Obtain Info On Secret Data Center Deals

 

An Arkansas mom and healthcare worker obtained a trove of documents about a data center deal between a local energy company and Google. Now, she is caught in a legal fight between the energy company and the news outlet she shared the documents with, with video surfacing of her being dragged into federal court Tuesday, weeping and scared.

 

Jessica Kivell recently sent a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the Arkansas Public Service Commission, which regulates state electricity prices, regarding a data center deal between Entergy Arkansas and Google, according to the Arkansas Times. The government appeared to have mistakenly handed Kivell the documents, which she then sent to a reporter at the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

 

The documents purportedly revealed that Google will not be paying the entire cost of infrastructure upgrades needed to power a new data center in West Memphis, despite claims to the contrary, according to the Arkansas Times. Google will only pay a third of the cost, $526 million, of a new solar array required to power the data center, the outlet reported.

 

Entergy sent attorneys and officials to a federal courthouse Tuesday to prevent the documents and information from remaining public, according to the Arkansas Times. The company sued the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and requested a restraining order on Kivell, arguing the documents contained trade secrets, the publication of which might violate state and federal laws.

 

Kivell was “visibly scared” when she arrived in court in her work scrubs after she arranged for her husband to pick up their daughter, according to the Arkansas Times, which was also listed in Entergy’s restraining order request. Throughout a closed-door portion of the hearing, Kivell wept loudly and continued to sob when she returned to the courtroom, the Arkansas Times reported.

 

U.S. District Judge Lee Rudofsky issued a ruling Wednesday that denied Entergy’s request for a temporary restraining order that would have prohibited the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette from publishing information about the deal. He also denied the restraining order on Kivell.

 

Entergy disputed the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette’s reporting and called for a retraction Wednesday.

 

“The information first published in the Aug. 31 Arkansas Democrat Gazette contains a serious and careless mathematical error,” Entergy alleged. “The calculation accounts for only 12 months of payments rather than the full twenty-year term of the agreement — a fact that was known to the paper but not included in its math.”

 

“Using the figures published in the article — $443 million plus $83 million minimum annually over 20 years — the total would be approximately $2.103 billion, not the amount reported. That distinction is significant,” the company went on. “In fact, as demonstrated by the evidence submitted to the Arkansas Public Service Commission, Google is not only paying its cost to serve but is delivering $1.1 billion in other benefits to Arkansas customers.”

 

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette later released a statement in response to Entergy on Wednesday evening, alleging that Entergy “operates on a fallacious and unchecked assumption that the figure in question was the result of a mathematical calculation. This is untrue.”

 

“Entergy never inquired with the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette about the source of the number. The figure in question, $526 million, was cited in documents obtained in the records request,” the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette said. “The number, in other words, was not the product of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette performing calculations.”

 

“Independent of us,” the statement continued, “Google repeatedly has cited the same figure of $526 million to other news outlets as well as to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. Entergy, in fact, performs calculations in its statement that we have not seen substantiated by the records.”

 

Google said in a statement that it is “fully committed to covering 100% of the power and infrastructure costs for our West Memphis data center.”

 

“While upfront payments total $526 million,” Google continued, “our ongoing monthly rates over the 20-year agreement will completely fund our operational footprint.”

Tech Bro Musk Wants Satellites That Control Earth’s Temperature

 

Billionaire Calls for “Sentient” Satellites and Planet-Scale Geoengineering to Control the Climate From Space

 

Elon Musk is pushing a plan to put an orbital thermostat over the planet.

The tech billionaire said “sentient satellites” positioned between Earth and the Sun could control global temperature for a billion years. He also said massive geoengineering will be needed—or it will be “game over.”

 

“Space satellites to control temperature and massive geo-engineering will be needed or it will be game over.” —Elon Musk

 

In an Aug. 30 X post, Musk described satellites launched to Earth-Sun Lagrange points by Moon-based mass drivers as the answer to "global warming."

 

This is planet-scale control of the sunlight every nation receives—not ordinary private-sector innovation.

 

A peer-reviewed PLOS One study examined Lagrange-point sunshades. It called the concept speculative, said space-based approaches were neither timely nor affordable compared with terrestrial alternatives, and estimated a proposed system could require 10 million to 100 million tonnes of structures in space.

 

The study also found that uniform shading could reshape regional climates and damage local ecosystems and economies.

 

The National Academies warned that solar geoengineering still carries unknown consequences for weather, agriculture, health, and ecosystems. It called for public engagement and international governance over who decides how long the planet is altered.

 

Musk’s proposal puts the overreach in plain view: wealthy billionaires now speak openly about engineering the sky above the rest of humanity.

Darline Graham & the SC GOP’s Ties to the LGBTQ Mafia

 

Graham’s Own DEI Record and a Multimillion-Dollar Super PAC Network Raise Questions About the Political Machine Behind Her Campaign

 

Security Is Strength PAC network behind her South Carolina Senate campaign. It casts Graham as another establishment candidate pushed by the same machine that rallied around the late Sen. Lindsey Graham.

Before Gov. Henry McMaster appointed her to the Senate seat, Darline Graham ran the South Carolina Commission for the Blind. In 2021, she told state House budget writers, “we’ve got a diversity, inclusion committee, I want to be a leader in state agencies when it comes to that,” the Post and Courier reported.

 

The commission’s 2023 annual report cited a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee and a hiring push that made the agency “the most diverse it has been in nearly a decade.”

 

Graham later denied supporting DEI to the Washington Examiner.

 

FEC filings show Security Is Strength PAC reported $6.39 million in independent expenditures through Aug. 5. The Hill reported it spent more than $1.8 million in the final week before Graham’s runoff.

 

United Patriots Alliance calls it a lavender dark-money cartel. Voters can call it the LGBTQ Mafia or the establishment machine. The record shows who backed Graham and what she said.

DUKE: We Already Know Who The Criminals Are — So Why Are Conservatives Embracing Mass Surveillance?

 

THEY ALREADY KNOW WHO THE CRIMINALS ARE

 

Some conservatives have decided America’s crime problem requires more government surveillance.

 

Flock cameras, they argue, are the high-tech tool that can help police solve crimes faster and deter would-be offenders.

 

And because conservatives are rightfully fed up with crime, the pitch is very alluring.

 

The problem with this argument is that America often has no shortage of information on who the criminals are.

 

Where we fail to stop crime is after we make the arrest.

Dallas Police removing over 300 Flock cameras as city leader pushes to end funding completely

 

On September 1, Dallas Police announced it would cancel a contract with Flock cameras after it lost state funding.

 

Texas Gov. Greg Abbot has ordered state agencies to pause funding on the cameras.

 

321 cameras that are funded through state money will be turned off on Sept. 15. More than 300 Flock cameras will still be operational in Dallas after that date.

 

Dallas County has had issues with vandalism and damage to its Flock cameras.

 

Sean Pease, the president of the Dallas Police Association, tells FOX 4's Amelia Jones that the Flock cameras have boosted the rate at which it finds suspects by 20% in 2026.

 

He says he understands that the system can be abused, but sees the value in the cameras.

 

"Could I lie and put a number in there that I just make up and put a law enforcement purpose that I make up? Yes, I can. But now I'm putting myself up for even more discipline," Pease said.

COVID-19: The Great Forgetting

 

It is a little drawer in a cabinet by my bedside and I have not opened it in years. I have to steel myself to open it now. And, yes, they are all there yet in every variety — black, chequered, colourful.

 

The ear-looped face-coverings behind which I spluttered for two long years, tugging on and off as needs be, as we queued obediently outside supermarkets, danced on and off pavements, or chilled if anyone in the vicinity so much as coughed.

 

Obediently protecting the NHS by, um, not using it. And, for weeks on end in 2020, biddably stood outside our front gates to hail its endeavours each Thursday evening, clapping our hands and banging saucepans.

 

The initial weeks of panic, when hand-sanitiser, soap and masks were nowhere to be had. An inexplicable run on toilet-rolls. The later, weird scarcities: flour, yeast, eggs.

 

On all sides the shuttered shops and restaurants, many of which would never reopen. The funerals you could not go to and the weddings that never happened. Untold rings, accordingly, engraved with the wrong date.

 

I have the sort of bardic, Highland memory that could immediately tell you something interesting that happened in my life in, say, August 1976 or September 2002. I’d struggle to detail much between March 2020 and April 2022.

 

Those were months without form, and void. Without the usual milestones of big social occasions and family celebration. In hindsight, they have a nightmarish hue.

 

I was trapped in Edinburgh shielding two elderly parents, one living with cancer. I lurched out on my lonesome for daily needs and the weekly Big Shop, three debit-cards in my wallet.

 

In the early weeks — I was fifty-four; had a bit of a tummy — I was wholly resigned to catching Covid; darkly confident I would die. Time and again I washed my hands, till they were raw; sometimes I was tempted to wash the groceries — and I know of households where husbands, returning from such an outing, had to strip in the porch before being granted admittance.

 

Nicola Sturgeon? Gaw, that woman never seemed to be off the box. Nightly my mother tuned in for her latest and-furthermore-I-say-unto-ye lecturettes, screened live on telly by our reverent broadcasters and without the First Minister’s political rivals granted any part whatsoever.

 

In a particularly North Korean moment, STV even broadcast online sickly footage of assorted Scottish children mewling, “Thank you, Nicola, for keeping us all safe,” and variants thereof. (It was belatedly pulled, after an outcry.)

 

I still remember the worst moment. A Saturday evening in October 2020. It had rained all day. Our brief re-opening had ceased after a sustained uptick in infections: the First Minister (who, weeks earlier, had been braying to all Europe how Scotland had eliminated coronavirus) had announced a “16-day re-set” with renewed restrictions.

 

So successful was the16-day re-set it lasted till the spring of 2022. That October evening — I could not return to my own home; I was totally trapped; my parents had been in particularly foul temper that day — I stood at the kitchen sink and wept.

 

Weeks later, it was announced that the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine had been successfully trialled. Great-grandparents were enjoying their first armfuls by Christmas.

 

I had my own in March 2021 — for which I had to motor home, at last, to my Hebridean lair, by sleepy streets and through a deserted countryside, past fraying posters for 2020 Highland Games and agricultural shows that had never taken place.

Netanyahu confidant Ron Dermer tells the Republican Jewish Coalition that the US must "kinetically" respond "very forcefully" to any Iranian attack on Israel.

 

Trump must "stay the course" in the war and commit to regime change—whether he tells the public or not, he adds.

 

"The US has to have a policy—whether they declare it or not…that by the time Trump leaves office, Iran is free," Dermer tells the Jewish lobbying group.

 

"When Iran's regime falls, it's not just going to be the end of a lot of security threats to Israel, it's going to be the beginning of enormous possibilities."

 

The possibilities (for Israel) are endless when the US fights their wars!

Missouri State Representative Candidate Charged with Conspiring to Distribute Cocaine to Frame Opponent

 

Campaign Manager Allegedly Instructed to Plant Cocaine Inside Opponent’s Purse and Vehicle

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – A Missouri state representative candidate has been charged by criminal complaint for conspiring to distribute a controlled substance to plant on his political opponent.

 

Thomas Christopher Ross, 37, of Joplin, Mo., was charged in a one-count complaint for conspiring to distribute a controlled substance. Ross is currently running for the state seat in House District 161 and won the Republican primary last month.

 

As alleged in the affidavit filed in support of the complaint, on Thursday, July 30, 2026, the Federal Bureau of Investigation was contacted by the Joplin Police Department (JPD) regarding a “public corruption” matter in Joplin, Mo. According to the initial information provided by JPD, the former campaign manager for Ross (C.S.), was asked by Ross to plant drugs on his opponent (L.S.). C.S. provided law enforcement with a black nylon glove that he claimed was given to him by Ross. A small, plastic bag was inside the glove. Inside of the bag was a small amount of white powder. A Nartec Inc. Cocaine Test Kit was used on the powder, which indicated a positive match for cocaine.

 

Additionally, inside of the glove was a pink and white capsule. The capsule was identified as Amphetamine and Dextroamphetamine 20 mg extended release, also known as Adderall, a Schedule II controlled substance. C.S. told investigators that he and Ross exchanged text messages, in which Ross requested for C.S. to place the bag of drugs inside of the purse or vehicle of L.S. while Ross was out of state on vacation.

 

“The American people deserve confidence in an electoral process that has served our nation for generations,” said R. Matthew Price, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Missouri. “Candidates are expected to conduct their campaigns with integrity, honesty, and respect for their opponents, allowing voters to make informed decisions without fear of misinformation or undue influence. The Western District of Missouri will continue to uphold fairness, transparency, and integrity in elections and will pursue violations of public trust when warranted”.

 

“The conduct alleged in these charges are substantial and serious,” said Chris Ormerod, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Kansas City Field Office. “Our citizens deserve to know that the election process is done with transparency and fairness. As this case moves through the judicial process, it’s important that it proceeds fairly, impartially and in accordance with the rule of law.”

Grand jury indicts former community school superintendent, business partner in $8 million fraud scheme

 

CINCINNATI – A federal grand jury has indicted the former superintendent and operator of a local community school and a business partner with wire fraud and other crimes related to an $8 million fraud and kickback scheme.

 

Leondo Ramone Davenport, 50, of Cincinnati, and Jonathan Larry Ballew, 62, of Phoenix, Arizona, were arrested this morning by federal agents.

 

“We’re putting an end to fraudsters exploiting public trust and profiting off of the American taxpayer,” said U.S. Attorney Dominick S. Gerace II. “Offenders should know that my Office will work hard to ensure that those responsible for fraud end up paying the price and come to understand that the juice is not worth the squeeze.”

 

“This indictment alleges a brazen scheme that stole from both taxpayers and students,” said Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald of the Justice Department’s National Fraud Enforcement Division. “Education dollars exist to support the learning and development of American children—not to fund the lifestyles of unscrupulous school officials. The Fraud Division commends the work of our federal and state partners whose efforts were essential in bringing these charges and ensuring that those who abuse positions of trust are held accountable.”

 

“Fraud against the government is fraud against every taxpayer and we are all victims of these schemes,” stated FBI Cincinnati Special Agent in Charge Jason Cromartie. “The FBI and Department of Justice are committed to rooting out fraud and holding accountable those who conduct illegal activities.”

 

“This was an egregious kickback scheme by individuals using taxpayer resources to enrich themselves,” Auditor Faber said. “Thanks to the good work of the U.S. Attorney, the FBI and our other partners in law enforcement for pursuing justice in this case. Our investigation also continues, and we look forward to working alongside the Hamilton County Prosecutor's Office to ensure everyone involved in these crimes is held accountable for their actions.”

One of Steinem's CIA colleagues was Clay Felker. In the early 1960's, he became an editor at Esquire and published articles by Steinem which established her as a leading voice for women's lib.

 

In 1968, as publisher of New York Magazine, Felker, left, hired her as a contributing editor, and then editor of Ms. Magazine in 1971. Warner Communications put up almost all the money although it only took 25% of the stock. Ms. Magazine's first publisher was Elizabeth Forsling Harris, a CIA-connected PR executive who planned John Kennedy's Dallas motorcade route.

 

Despite its anti-establishment image, MS magazine attracted advertising from the cream of corporate America. It published ads for ITT at the same time as women political prisoners in Chile were being tortured by Pinochet, after a coup inspired by the US conglomerate and the CIA.

 

Steinem's personal relationships also belie her anti-establishment pretensions. She had a nine-year relationship with Stanley Pottinger, a Nixon-Ford assistant attorney general, credited with stalling FBI investigations into the assassinations of Martin Luther King, and the ex-Chilean Foreign Minister Orlando Letelier. In the 1980's, she dated Henry Kissinger.
