The allegations are striking. Earlier this month, the wife of Sean Parnell, who is running for the Senate from Pennsylvania with the backing of Donald Trump, provided sworn testimony in a child custody hearing that he had "choked her until she bit him to escape, that he hit their young children, and that he lashed out at her with obscenities and insults," according to a report in The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Parnell called his wife's testimony "lies" in a statement released by his campaign and said he would rebut her claims in his testimony, which is expected this week. Under cross-examination by Parnell's lawyers Monday, his wife acknowledged that "there were no formal interventions or restrictions" against Parnell, according to the Inquirer.

The alleged drug traffickers killed by the US military in a strike on September 2 were heading to link up with another, larger vessel that was bound for Suriname — a small South American country east of Venezuela – the admiral who oversaw the operation told lawmakers on Thursday according to two sources with direct knowledge of his remarks.

The two men killed as they floated holding onto their capsized boat in a secondary strike against a suspected drug vessel in early September did not appear to have radio or other communications devices, the top military official overseeing the strike told lawmakers on Thursday, according to two sources with direct knowledge of his congressional briefings.
