The Pentagon says 18 U.S. troops have died in Trump's Iran war. But new reporting from six U.S. officials with direct access to the Pentagon's casualty data, says the real number is higher. Five put the toll at at least 22, while one put it at 23.

More U.S. troops have died amid Iran war than Pentagon has disclosed publicly
Officials who spoke with The Post expressed frustration that the additional loss of life in the Middle East is not reflected in the Defense Department’s casualty database.

The White House has banned reporters from MSNOW, CNN and Politico. We the people need to ban all the other news agencies that will go to the White House during this time. That way Trump can't get his Lies out as easy to as many people. The loss of viewers will cost the other agencies money.
