Home » Lockheed Martin Testing Extended Range Increment One Precision Strike Missiles A missile test performed at Vandenburg Space Force Base California last month was the first test of an extended range variant of the Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) looking to hit targets beyond the 499+ kilometer threshold of the baseline missile variant Lockheed Martin confirmed the details to Naval News in an interview at Modern Day Marine 2025 in Washington D.C during an interview regarding PRsM and updates to the M142 HIMARS “Our recent demonstration at Vandenberg Space Force Base tested extended range of the baseline Increment One missile Lockheed Martin’s Director for of Strategy and Business Development Army-led SINKEX during Exercise Valiant Shield 2024 that featured the first U.S Army use of an anti-ship ballistic missile Army’s 3rd Multi-Domain Task Force (3MDTF) and the 1-181 Artillery Regiment of the Tennessee National Guard who fired two Precision Strike Missiles from the U.S Army’s prototype Autonomous Multi-domain Launcher (AML) The ship targeted in the SINKEX was ex-USS Cleveland (LPD-7) the missiles used in the SINKEX during Valiant Shield 2024 were baseline Increment One Precision Strike Missiles Withrow could not confirm or deny the ability of Increment One to prosecute maritime targets but could confirm the initial all-up-round testing timeline for Increment Two I don’t know if it’s against a moving target but our first test [for Increment Two] is in 2026.” Further developments beyond Increment One and Two are also expected are under development within the wider PrSM and Long Range Fires programs for a wide range of new capabilities Increment One has been delivered and those missiles have an unspecified level of capability against maritime targets which Lockheed Martin could not expand on Increments 2 and 4 will also have anti-ship capability Increment 3 and 5 will feature new warheads and guided submunitions “Increment One is the baseline surface to surface missile with a range beyond 400 kilometers Increment two adds a seeker to go after maritime [targets] Increment three is a lethality enhancement [adding] a new warhead to the missile to go after a different type of target Increment four is the extended range version and it also will have a seeker to go after maritime targets.” PrSM recently completed a Production Qualification Test (PQT) Series opening the door for the missile’s final phase of development Initial Operational Testing and Evaluation (IOT&E) is expected in May 2025 with a Full Rate Production (FRP) decision later

It’s something Aston is famously good at. Look at all that bonnet, the suggestion of power and presence, how the cabin is set back, the roofline dropping to the rear. As a design it communicates exactly what the DB12 is all about and presents it in a great-looking, beautifully proportioned package. But don’t you think it’s also a bit… imbalanced? I’ll tell you where I’m going with this – look at the size difference between the bonnet and the bootlid. What it says to me is that this is all about the engine, and what happens at the back is very much an afterthought. An afterthought that, when you try to use it, is alarmingly easy to smack your head on. ‘You’ll only do that once,’ I hear you saying. Not so, I’m currently on three strikes and very nearly out. You can’t load the boot. You either bend down miles or sort of put your chin over the bootlid and load without looking. It’s like putting something under your bed – you rest your chin on top and sort of rummage around. It’s awkward. And the 262-litre area is tiny. And oddly shaped. This, I remind you, is Aston’s grand tourer. The one that should whisk you across Europe and allow you to elegantly unload outside some French chateau. Instead you’ll be explaining to the worried bellhop how you got that bruise on your brow and why your bags are pre-unpacked with the contents thrust blindly in. The broad-shouldered Vantage is a bruiser of a sports car, but it gets a proper hatch at the back. Big old 346-litre area back there. Probably swallows a set of golfing irons. And does so without putting a crick in your back. That’s the one you’d imagine has been designed as the grand tourer. Because no-one’s putting anyone in the back seats of one of these. Sure there are a pair of seats back there, or at least seat-shaped spaces, but climbing in is like posting yourself into a kitchen cupboard – you’d only do it to see if you actually fitted. And even then only after several wines. Imagine the knuckle-gnawing indignity of clambering out at the chateau. Oh, so you’re going to transport kids are you? Yeah, right. You show me the DB12 owner with a family who doesn’t also own a dirty great SUV. Look, amongst grand tourers, there’s only one it’s acceptable to be seen climbing out of the back of, and that’s the Conti GT. There’s no point in the DB12 having back seats. They’re there to distinguish GT from sports car, that’s it. And the same applies to the bootlid. With the added point that a full tailgate does also look a bit plebian. The DB12 ought to function as a daily driving supercar, and when it comes to practicality, it misses the mark.

programmes BBC is a trademark of the British Broadcasting Corporation the 2025 IIHF U18 World Championship is over splitting time between Comerica Center and Credit Union of Texas Event Center Canada defeated Sweden in Saturday’s final winning its first-ever back-to-back golds at the event And Switzerland was relegated for the first time in two decades losing to a Norwegian program on the rise in recent years I had notes on nearly 100 of the top prospects in the 2025 and disappointments and fallers — as well as a couple of notables I had mixed feelings about who pulled away in the tournament scoring race and set Sweden’s all-time single-tournament goals and points record It felt like everything he touched ended up in the back of the net he was creating looks inside the offensive zone He’s a fascinating story because he didn’t have a great year in the OHL and came into the tournament ranked 178th in North America by NHL Central Scouting as a 5-foot-9.75 winger There are layers to the way his season went that haven’t been fully contextualized including that he was very ill when he first showed up in Ottawa and it lingered throughout the fall impacting the full first half of his year while they tried to figure out what was ailing him combined with playing on a bottom-of-the-standings Ottawa 67’s team that struggled to score and for a coach in Dave Cameron who I don’t think got the most out of him when he was healthy He’s still ultimately a small winger who’s destined to be a mid-round pick but the last two weeks were still a clear indication of his real talent His standup skating stride can look a little unconventional but he’s agile on cuts and can play with tempo He finds his way around of ton of chances in the home plate area He showed a quick catch and release and quick hands I even liked how he won body positioning on the cycle He was a driver of offence at both five-on-five and made his power-play unit the de facto go-to unit after it wasn’t always that way this year Awesome week for the kid — though his gold medal game was his first quiet one of the event Stenberg continues to look like the second-best forward in next year’s draft to me and was a standout in most of Sweden’s games (He scored on a lucky bounce in the semifinals against USA but I actually thought that and the final were his least impactful games after he was one of the best players on the ice in group play and the quarters.) protecting pucks and pushing through contact for a 5-foot-11 winger and drew a few penalties holding pucks along the cycle He gets off the wall and wants to take inside ice He’s dangerous on the flank on the power play and likes the one-timer The puck comes off his stick extremely quickly and hard He’s got dynamic one-on-one skill with defenders and goalies And despite being among the tournament scoring leaders he hit a couple of posts and could have had more looks He’s going to be one of the first players picked in next year’s draft and that was never more evident than over the last couple of weeks in Texas He rocked two or three players per game and was eventually ejected for interference in the first period of Canada’s semifinal for what amounted to hitting a kid too hard after he’d made a pass His presence is felt in every game he plays in and he was great in the gold medal game That is why Brady Martin is going to be a first round pick in the 2025 #NHLDraft The @OHLHoundPower star has his second and 🇨🇦's fifth of the #U18MensWorlds final! pic.twitter.com/SVhKWLE2lg — Canadian Hockey League (@CHLHockey) May 4, 2025 I thought he started the tournament a little slow offensively but as the event wore on he made some skill plays one-on-one his skating looked quick and he did it within his established identity as a fearless forward who sticks with plays goes to the dirt areas and forces turnovers Don’t be surprised if he goes top 10 in June Verhoeff joined Team Canada late after his Victoria Royals lost to the Spokane Chiefs in the second round of the WHL playoffs I thought he didn’t have his best game in his debut against Finland and he was just fine in the gold medal game but he was Canada’s best defenseman as an underager in between Outside of average skating (his feet can look a little heavy under his 6-foot-4 frame at times) he looks like the real deal in every other area of the game played in all situations and made some big plays including a great play to set up the overtime winner against the Czechs in the quarterfinals he’s got great instincts offensively and defensively he likes to involve himself in the play offensively both on and off the puck inside the offensive zone and he’s a summer birthday who is still 16 and has a ton of runway to get even better 2 next year and looks like a star prospect The 5-foot-7 Mooney was USA’s driver all tournament until he got injured and left early in the second period of the bronze medal game I actually thought his least impactful game of the tournament was USA’s semifinal loss to the Swedes and he still had points on all three American goals in the game His line with 2026 forward Mikey Berchild and 2025 forward Jacob Kvasnicka (who I thought made a case to at least get picked and looked like he’ll be a solid college player for Minnesota with his work ethic all tournament) was USA’s best He put a ton of pucks into space for his linemates He flowed with play beautifully and found ways to navigate around the ice with his cutbacks in control His ability to spin on a dime and lose and separate from guys both in open ice and even inside the offensive zone putting defenders in the spin cycle inside the offensive zone with his ability to slip and slide around them creating a ton of entries and finding holes in coverage to weave through playing in the guts of the ice and laying a few of the biggest non-Brady Martin hits of the tournament tagging guys such as Anton Frondell and Ivar Stenberg It was a very impressive week after an up-and-down season I thought he outplayed the other two top little guys USA looked like a completely different team Team USA outscored the opposition 12-2 with Mooney on the ice in the tournament at five-on-five and he was my final cut for my tournament all-star team ballot at forward (it was down to him and Martin) Bjorck got better as the tournament went on and played his best game in Sweden’s semifinal against Team USA I don’t think he was quite the standout that the players ahead of him on this list were but the top of the 2026 class stood out more in the event than the 2025s and his skill level was a distinguisher at times He will go outside to attack back inside with his agility and ability to carve into defenders’ hands He’s strong for his size (he’s listed at 5-foot-9 but he looked bigger than that to me) and will take pucks to the blue paint on D He’s got adjustable feet to slip away from sticks and turn away from coverage He shakes his man so well and has high-end stick skill to combine with his cutting game to make guys miss (which he drew some penalties out of) He’s got a quick first three steps and can accelerate around D from a standstill He was a go-to five-on-three penalty killer for them He can turn over some pucks trying to be too cute at times but he also showed a good stick on lifts to get pucks back and attack quickly out of it This tournament had a weak crop of goaltenders and that made Ivankovic look comparatively speaking like he was in a different class building on his legacy with the Program of Excellence He needed to remind people of that after getting lit up a couple of times by the Gens in the first-round of the OHL playoffs (though it should be noted that Oshawa also lit up Brantford and Barrie in the next two rounds) and after his numbers with Brampton were good but not great in the regular season It’s especially important for him to continue to show people that he’s a top goalie because of his 5-foot-11 listing anticipation and hockey sense are very high-end and those combined with impressive movement allow him to get to east-west plays and make big saves He plays the puck extremely well and was an important part of Canada’s breakout at times And he battled in the net and held the line on scrambles and jam plays all week There were extended stretches when Canada struggled at five-on-five against the Finns and they don’t even get to the gold medal game without a couple of big saves in overtime of the quarterfinals Others I liked or I thought helped themselves: Frondell came mid-tournament from a championship celebration across seven time zones after helping Djurgarden to promotion into the SHL He was going to be jet lagged and probably not at his best in the earlier games in the tournament But with scouts from all of the top teams in attendance and him in the conversation at the top of the draft coming in after an up-and-down year that finished up with excellent HockeyAllsvenskan production in the regular season They broke up their most successful line all year (Milton Gastrin between Ivar Stenberg and Viktor Klingsell) to put him with prominent linemates he wasn’t used as a go-to player in offensive or defensive situations for the Swedes He couldn’t generate offensive looks for himself puck protection and willingness to play a team game and support pucks or pick up assignments he didn’t look like a surefire top-five talent And while they aren’t the be-all and end-all of a year there were other similar stretches (between some excellent ones where he looked like a stud) this year as well I’ve seen enough that I still think he projects as an excellent 2C in the NHL but he didn’t have anywhere near the impact that James Hagens and Porter Martone He was better early on in the final but still struggled to break through There has been a lot of conversation this year about who the second- and third-best D in this class are after Matthew Schaefer Smith didn’t make a convincing case for most of the tournament that he was one of them for me but he played his best game in the gold medal game and scored a big goal The @TCAmericans' Jackson Smith has his fourth of the #U18MensWorld One of the top defenceman available in the 2025 #NHLDraft, Smith extends Canada's lead in the final to 3-0! pic.twitter.com/DjmU8xK8JU — Canadian Hockey League (@CHLHockey) May 4, 2025 skated some pucks in neutral ice and showed his good edges opening up was productive for Tri-City and made some high-end plays this year But there were also times on a blue line that was made up almost entirely of 2026s where Team Canada needed some of their 2025s to step up and I thought he Alex Huang and Quinn Beauchesne all struggled in stretches and were outplayed certainly by 2026s Verhoeff and Carson Carels at times (and also Ryan Lin to a lesser degree) It’s the IQ piece that my attention was drawn to on a number of occasions took some bad routes and made some bad reads defensively getting beat or making mistakes a little too often for my liking I think he’s more of a teens guy than a 9-12 guy for me I still have the questions I had coming in Boumedienne broke the tournament’s all-time D scoring record and played more minutes than any other player in the event But picking the two D on the all-star team was also a challenge this year and Boumedienne had some real highs and lows He needs to move the puck a bit quicker at times He doesn’t always think his D-zone coverage and pick up his man that well His execution isn’t always clean and he seems to bobble and mishandle a lot of pucks He turned over a bunch of pucks and got caught cheating and out of position a few times But he’s also a brilliant skater and 6-foot-2 and at this level that allows him to be a top player He got first touch on pucks on the PK and cleared the zone well He was jumping into the rush and deep into the offensive zone off the line He looked to create and wanted to be a difference-maker He got a lot of shots through from the point and was obviously involved in a lot of offence If he can just improve the speed at which he processes the play But he’s still learning the game in a lot of ways Thanks for visiting The use of software that blocks ads hinders our ability to serve you the content you came here to enjoy We ask that you consider turning off your ad blocker

from across the weekend A weekend of mixed outcomes and mixed conditions in the Sunshine State Further rain hit Miami International Autodrome ahead of the Grand Prix The circuit dried up enough for our drivers to begin on dry tyres but patches of water remained and the threat of further rain loomed with Lance up to P15 by the end of the first lap Lance's pitstop came at the end of Lap 20 Fernando switched his Hards for Mediums under a Virtual Safety Car Fernando and Lance concluded the race in P15 and P16 respectively "Difficult race for us today and very tricky conditions We just simply lack pace – we've been slow all season so far and today wasn't any exception With an uneventful race and no opportunities it just shows how we're not competitive and need to look at improving the car in all areas." We didn't have the pace the whole weekend We faced similar challenges today that we've had all season and couldn't capitalise on any chaos ahead of us We need to get better and hopefully in Imola take a step forward." "Today's results in the Miami Grand Prix are a reminder that we are simply lacking car performance There were very few opportunities to progress from our starting positions and the race turned out to be a comfortable one-stop race for the entire field "It was important that we scored four points with Lance yesterday in the Sprint but under normal dry conditions we don't have a car capable of competing for points right now We need to continue to analyse where we can improve and work hard to be more competitive in Imola." We'll be making our way to Emilia-Romagna for the beginning of another triple-header with Free Practice getting started on 16 May Rain hit the track ahead of the Sprint and created tricky conditions that resulted in a suspended starting procedure and subsequent Red Flag our drivers both had strong starts on the Intermediates Fernando had climbed to eighth and Lance to P11 by the end of the first racing lap allowing Lance to pit for dry tyres at the end of Lap 11 but his Sprint came to an unfortunate end after contact from behind resulting in a Safety Car with Lance running in P7 Lance secured a top-five finish and claimed four points Fernando and Lance finished P17 and P19 respectively #18 | Lance Stroll | Sprint & Qualifying "We know we don't have the pace currently and finished Qualifying as we expected We made some positive set-up changes following the Sprint and the car felt the best it has been all weekend So it felt really good to get a decent result in the Sprint earlier today "It's the little wins at the moment and it felt like everything fell into place with lots of opportunities and some good decisions But we're not where we want to be right now and need to find more pace." #14 | Fernando Alonso | Sprint & Qualifying we just didn't have the pace to proceed to Q2 so it will be a challenge to score points tomorrow We need to better understand the issues and find some pace I was having a perfect race and felt competitive but we were still going to score points when Lawson made contact with me "Thank you to the team on the ground who helped repair the car before Qualifying: the mechanics always perform at the top level so thanks to them." "An eventful day in Miami with a wet Sprint and a dry Qualifying session keeping us busy and the fans entertained Lance scored four points in the Sprint with an excellent race and well-judged strategy as he ran in the points until Liam [Lawson] pushed him into wall in the closing laps "Getting Fernando's car fixed and out in time for Qualifying required a massive team effort – drawing on the component preparation work done back at base – and both sides of the garage helping with repairs "The Qualifying results are reflective of our pace combined with such a tight grid Let's see what we can do to progress up the field tomorrow We will be ready to maximise any opportunities in the race." After setting a single lap on all slick tyre compounds Lance and Fernando spent the majority of the weekend's sole Free Practice collecting information on the Medium compound They then switched to Softs for the final 15 minutes Practice came to an early end following a Red Flag After spending the session getting up to speed with the circuit Sprint Qualifying got underway in the 305 where he secured a P10 start for tomorrow's Sprint #18 | Lance Stroll | Free Practice & Sprint Qualifying "Sprint Qualifying didn't play out well for me today: I had a lot of traffic on my final push lap and was a bit unlucky with where I came across [Max] Verstappen on the final straight All of that cost me a few tenths and I just missed the chance to get through to SQ2 "Let's see what tomorrow brings for the Sprint race Hopefully some opportunities come our way and there is a chance to make up some positions." #14 | Fernando Alonso | Free Practice & Sprint Qualifying "It's a bit of a surprise to qualify where we did because the car is still struggling with balance and it's not always consistent - but all in all "This is the first time I have made it through to SQ3 this season so hopefully we can keep up that momentum Only the top eight cars will score points tomorrow Shop our 2025 Miami collection on the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team store Join our team on this season's journey with a brand new cap and T-shirt From exclusive collabs to once-in-a-lifetime prizes I / AM DROPS is a new series of unique and ultra-limited moments and fan experiences Driven by the core belief that energy is opportunity A sustainable mining champion with global presence Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team is bringing new energy to F1 in its quest for world titles the team's talented driver squad includes double World Champion Fernando Alonso and Canada's Lance Stroll We use cookies on our website.

his four stocks in the team’s win against the Chicago Bulls were significant during the squad’s short but strong stint of play in the middle of March he’s an aggressive attacker at the glass and provided strong hustle for the team Martin struggled to shoot efficiently in his time with the Valley Shooting 35.1% from the field and 11.1% from deep but it’s fair to attribute that partly due to the two-month absence he had that started while he was still in Charlotte but he barely shot a third of that on less than two attempts with the Suns Martin is unlikely to crack the Suns' rotation if he’s on the team next season his salary and expiring contract can be used as a vehicle for the Suns to make trades with other teams The Suns appear to be trying to get under the second apro,n and Phoenix may not guarantee his contract as a result Was it the reason the Suns had a bad season But his play with the team was not strong enough to justify the Suns getting rid of a first-round pick just to get rid of Jusuf Nurkić Potentially if he returns next year and has a full training camp and is healthy DENVER, May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT] has completed assembly and testing of NASA's Orion Artemis II spacecraft transferring possession to NASA's Exploration Ground Systems (EGS) team today This milestone is a significant step for NASA and the Artemis industry team as they prepare to launch a crew of four astronauts to further the agency's mission in establishing a human presence on the Moon for exploration and scientific discovery It will also help build the foundation for the first crewed missions to Mars Lockheed Martin is the prime contractor to NASA for Orion and built the crew module crew module adaptor and launch abort system "This achievement is a testament to our employees and suppliers who have worked tirelessly to get us to this important milestone," said Kirk Shireman vice president of Human Space Exploration and Orion program manager at Lockheed Martin "The Orion spacecraft completion for Artemis II is a major step forward in our nation's efforts to develop a long-term lunar presence humans will see the Earth rise over the lunar horizon from our vehicle while also traveling farther from Earth than ever before."

songs CO (Local 766) have walked out on strike at Lockheed Martin after the company committed multiple unfair labor practices and refused to present a fair economic proposal that meets the

Lockheed taking in another $1.7 billion These mind-boggling profits aren’t going anywhere: the Trump administration is positioned to deliver a more than $1 trillion defense budget in 2025 While

an insult to all UAW members who have proudly served this country “Lockheed’s workers have to wait years and even decades before seeing a comfortable standard of living while its executives are swimming in taxpayer dollars,” said UAW Region 4 Director Brandon Campbell “Lockheed is a textbook example of corporate greed and I’m proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our members as they fight for their fair share.” “UAW members at Lockheed Martin voted 99.3% in favor of authorizing a strike” said UAW Region 8 Director Tim Smith “We are standing together in solidarity and we will have each

By connecting my portfolio to TipRanks Smart Portfolio I agree to their Terms of Use WASHINGTON (AP) — Most of President Donald Trump’s top nominees have sailed through the Senate with little resistance His pick to be the top federal prosecutor for the nation’s capital could be an exception a conservative activist with modest legal experience who has defended rioters who attacked the Capitol on Jan is testing Republican party loyalties as a deadline approaches for the Senate to decide whether to extend or end his brief but tumultuous tenure as leader of the country’s largest U.S Martin’s nomination faces vocal opposition from hundreds of veterans of the office that he is leading on an interim basis Democrats are trying to tie up his confirmation vote And Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee have said they need more time to review his record WATCH: Former Trump lawyer Alina Habba sworn in as interim U.S. attorney for New Jersey There were signs of trouble at a Judiciary meeting on Thursday as Illinois Sen said it was his understanding that committee chairman Chuck Grassley was going to announce “that we are not going to move forward on the Martin nomination.” saying he would wait to talk about Martin until the committee scheduled a vote But he said he was still going through hundreds of questions that the committee had posed to Martin adding that some of his staff “had more questions” and wanted to meet with him in person It was hardly a ringing endorsement of Martin who hasn’t spent much time in courtrooms but has been a devoted loyalist to Trump Martin fired or demoted veteran attorneys who prosecuted Trump supporters for storming the U.S he represented and helped raise money for Capitol riot defendants He frequently appeared on Russian state media to parrot Trump talking points He even published coloring books glorifying Trump’s tweets READ MORE: Federal prosecutor resigns after refusing DOJ order to drop NYC Mayor Adams’ corruption case Martin hasn’t responded to several Associated Press interview requests since he took office in January Martin recently told NBC Washington that he is confident that Trump made the “right decision” in nominating him He has touted his office’s work tackling violent crime And he has told lawmakers that his opinions won’t influence his office decisions “We have to keep the streets safe AND fight for America on the world stage Amazing work and I am blessed to serve Donald Trump in this way,” Martin wrote in a Substack post Any vote on Martin’s nomination is bound to be split along party lines Democrats are calling for a rare hearing where they can grill him The Judiciary panel traditionally does not hold confirmation hearings for U.S Even if the committee were to approve Martin’s nomination it would face obstacles on the Senate floor Adam Schiff placed a hold on the nomination meaning Republicans would have to spend several days of floor time to confirm him attorneys are generally approved in groups by a quick voice vote WATCH: Jan. 6 police officers, House Democrats blast Trump’s pardons Schiff last month said Martin “has consistently undermined the independence and abused the power of the U.S Attorney’s office in D.C.” since taking office Martin has touted endorsements from leading conservative figures Rand Paul of Kentucky and Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee Paul in a post on X said he’s confident Martin will “work to clean up DC and fight against the left’s lawless judicial tyranny His supporters have said his record fighting conservative causes makes him the right person to lead the office that critics have claimed unfairly treated Jan 6 defendants and should have been more focused on bringing down street crime Safe Again” initiative to bring more gun cases in federal court But a least one Republican member of the committee appears to have reservations who has expressed some concerns about Martin’s Jan said Thursday that he will meet with Martin next week Trump appointed Martin the same week in January that he issued mass pardons to supporters who attacked the U.S It was a morale-destroying choice for prosecutors who spent four years building cases against over 1,500 riot defendants the largest investigation in Justice Department history Martin was a leading figure in Trump’s “Stop the Steal” movement He spoke at a rally in Washington on the eve of the riot which he ranked among the top 10 cases of his legal career on his committee questionnaire returned to his home office in the Justice Department before Martin arrived And yet Martin tried to demote Romano to an entry-level position along with other senior prosecutors who worked on Capitol riot cases “He appeared not to realize that I didn’t work for him,” said Romano Martin served on the board of the nonprofit Patriot Freedom Project which reports raising over $2.5 million to support Jan he presented an award to a Capitol riot defendant who openly espoused white supremacist and antisemitic ideology and photographed himself sporting a Hitler mustache He referred to Hale-Cusanelli as a friend who is “an extraordinary guy.” Martin told committee members that he condemns Hale-Cusanelli’s hateful comments as “abhorrent and deplorable.” He claimed he didn’t learn about them until after he presented him with the award during an event at Trump’s golf club in Bedminster But Martin alluded to the controversy when he interviewed Hale-Cusanelli before the awards ceremony Martin accused prosecutors of leaking photos of Hale-Cusanelli sporting the Hitler mustache to taint the jury pool Critics have accused Martin of abusing his office — and his account on Musk’s X platform — to intimidate potential targets of investigations At least three medical journals received letters from Martin asking about “competing viewpoints.” Another letter that he sent on office stationery accused Wikipedia of “allowing foreign actors to manipulate information and spread propaganda to the American public.” Martin had a habit of getting ensnared in political controversies — and litigation — during his earlier forays into public service he was chief of staff for then-Missouri Gov Matt Blunt when he was sued by a former staff attorney who claimed he was fired in retaliation for complaining that the administration was destroying e-mails illegally Martin was chairman of the Missouri Republican Party before becoming president of conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly’s Eagle Forum in April 2013 He co-authored a book about Trump with Schlafly Martin has referred to himself as one of the president’s lawyers His critics have call him unqualified and unfit for the job “Ed Martin has less experience than a misdemeanor assistant does after a week in basic training That’s not an exaggeration,” said Kevin Flynn who worked as a prosecutor under roughly a dozen U.S attorneys in Washington before leaving the office in 2023 © 1996 - 2025 NewsHour Productions

U.S. Attorney Ed Martin appears to be facing skepticism from the Senate Judiciary Committee, Republican members of which met this week to discuss the seemingly endless baggage and politically motivated acts that Martin has and will likely continue to mix into his work if officially confirmed to the position Republicans on the panel also reportedly discussed whether to consider their Democratic colleagues’ requests to hold a hearing on Martin’s confirmation It appears a few Republican members have some hangups about the guy Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) is the only Republican thus far to publicly acknowledge Martin might not be a great fit for the job. He’s been saying as much since February. According to CNN Tillis said this week that he has “serious questions” about Martin’s nomination specifically noting that his past remarks criticizing police officers who defended the Capitol on January 6 gave him pause “I’m talking about somebody who wants to be [U.S. attorney] in the jurisdiction where that event and future events could possibly occur,” Tillis told CNN.“And I’m going to have to get some pretty fulsome responses for me to feel comfortable with this nomination.” Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) made a pseudo acknowledgment this week that some of his fellow Republicans on the panel may not be completely sold on Martin serving in a permanent capacity, CNN reported.  “We’ve had people on our staff that had more questions,” he said ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee said Durbin’s and other Democrats’ effort to shed light on how unqualified Martin is for the position — as evidenced by how he has used the gig (in an acting capacity) thus far to carry out Trump’s retribution agenda.  “Ranking Member Durbin and Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats will continue to scrutinize Ed Martin’s deeply problematic record and make the case that he is not fit to be a U.S Ranking Member Durbin will call for a vote on holding a hearing if and when the Committee decides to move forward with the nomination,” he said A source familiar with Martin’s nomination told TPM that “at this time Martin doesn’t have the votes to be approved.”  Alex Padilla (D-CA) similarly told TPM in an emailed statement that he stands with fellow Senate Democrats in urging Grassley to hold a hearing on Martin’s nomination “The American people deserve transparency on Ed Martin’s nomination to be the next U.S His previous comments in support of The Big Lie and association with January 6th insurrectionists have raised serious concerns and make it necessary to more closely examine his qualifications for one of the country’s top law enforcement roles,” Padilla told TPM “I stand with my fellow Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats in continuing to call on Chairman Grassley to immediately hold a hearing on Ed Martin’s nomination.”  While Durbin may be holding off on demanding a hearing for now, he was one of several Judiciary Committee Democrats who last month, in a letter to Grassley requested that the chairman consider holding a hearing on Martin’s nomination Senate Democrats argued that Martin “abused his position in multiple ways since being named Interim U.S Those leaders are increasingly vexed that the White House budget office has not shared details of the funding cuts it is already undertaking at federal agencies and its plans for the fiscal year that starts in October no president — and administrations — don’t get to dictate what’s going to happen here,” Cole told reporters Thursday morning but not the commander in chief of Congress.” Mike Waltz is out as national security adviser.
