Vote - Stop the draft

Vote against the war expansion and the burgeoning draft of out citizens. The Israeli war will be the reason for the citizen draft into military service.

 Early balloting in the USA has started.

Vote while there is still a two party system!

BE FEARLESS!

GO, America, GO!

The Pentagon. That was the Pentagon as in Hegseth, Secretary of Defense is lying to us about soldier deaths (click here).

Trump is attempting to violate the NATO treaty again by bribing Russia with USA business so Putin will end the war (click here). Does anyone expect Putin to end the war with additional income from the USA? 

End the AI invasion.

Trump's administration is completely unhinged to satisfy his ego driven racism. (click here).

Trump's FAA approves the Trump Arch (click here) It requires an eternal flame so pilots can see it. The Vietnam Veterans are suing to end the assault against Washington, DC defacement.

The Trump administration (click here) announced it will break ground on a 250-foot triumphal arch near Arlington Cemetery within the next two weeks—the latest among a series of costly Capitol renovations under President Donald Trump.

Trump's Vanity Project Costs

Trump's Arch - $100 million

Trump's Ballroom - $927 million
(basically $1 billion)

Trump's Reflecting Pool - $19 million 

Kennedy Center - $285 million

Eisenhower Executive Bldg. - $7.5 M

Hero Gardens - $40 million

Rose Garden - $1.9 million

The total is about $1.3 billion

And people in this country don't have health care. Amazing.

The Trump family affiliation with Russia is grossly inappropriate and must stop.

The Trump family MUST stop their affiliation with Russia. It is corruption through and through. There is no other name for it. When Vladimir Putin's surrogate pays a lot of money for a three day wedding for the president's son, that is nothing but corruption.

The top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee (click here) launched an investigation into Donald Trump Jr.’s relationship with a Russian oligarch who paid for much of Trump Jr.’s wedding earlier this year.

Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., sent two letters on Monday to the White House and Trump Jr. requesting records related to Trump Jr.’s financial relationship with the oligarch, Umar Kremlev.

“The secretive, close relationship between the son of a sitting U.S. President and a member of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s inner circle raises serious national security and public corruption concerns,” Garcia wrote. Garcia told Trump Jr. it “may be the most serious allegation against you to date.” The letter to Trump Jr. asked for documents including Trump Jr.’s communications with Kremlev and “financial records of all purchases made for your wedding by foreign nationals.”...

Trump is a sell out. He does favors for Russia like having Cash Patel attack Canada. When out allies are a target it makes Russia stronger. Russia uses that news inside Russia as propaganda to win favor with their citizens. There is no way that is even proper. I don't want to hear it. Business between allies is done through meetings and treaties. Patel and Trump are wrong and it needs to stop.

There is no opposition party in Russian elections this year. This is exactly what Trump is trying to achieve. He is being mentored by Putin.

A couple of things to cover today. One is Medicare for All.

Senator Sanders has been asking for the people to tell their Congresspersons to vote for a bill that would bring all Americans under "Medicare for All." He is correct. I will show you why.

We all know the issues, too expensive and rationing of services that endanger lives and diminish human potential and quality of life. That can be eliminated.

I have issues that most Americans don't. I subscribe to Blue Care Network Medicare Advantage. I pay approximately $210 per month for this plan. The deduction from my Social Security Check and $35.00 extra. I have complaints and I will cover them later, but, this is more important right now. There is a lot right with what is happening with me.

This procedure occurred Wednesday. I have a genetically odd right kidney. As I age it is becoming a problem in that it is developing mineral deposits most commonly known as kidney stones. The procedure was to introduce a catheter with a lazar to break the stones and remove them. This was performed in an operating room and not a clinical setting that most folks call "Same Day Surgery." I went home after the procedure, it is just that in surgery I have a higher risk and an OR rather than a clinic setting is the only option.

Okay. So $210 per month payment and here is the bill.

Co-pay $375.00 for a surgery costing more than $38,000.00. That is more than reasonable considering the excellent care I receive. The staff is great and I went home without complications. 

Every American no matter their age deserves this level of care with this minimal expense. If I can't handle the co-pay immediately there are payment plans that offer monthly breakdowns. But $375.00 is an incredible reality I can't complain about. Do any of the Americans suffering under insurance expense and compromised coverage and quality of life believe they are not worth Medicare for All? 

This is a good idea and it needs to pass into law. 

Seriously. 

Let's do this.

Public comment needs information. Newspapers have helped citizens for more than a century.

 Appreciate the Main Stream Media.

The New York Times is celebrating it's anniversary today. (click here)

175 Amazing years informing the citizens of this country about events that shape our Free World lives.

Freedom requires information. Information without tainting or interference. This democracy relies on the truth. 

Much has changed since the publication debuted on September 18, 1851. What hasn’t changed, staff members say, is the paper’s mission

Whatever happened to public comment?

A public comment period for the Kennedy Center would solve all problems and a roadmap for the future including an initial Congressional appropriation followed by fundraising for the future. The public needs to be happy with ALL IMPROVEMENTS to the building while maintaining the integrity to the art and performances. There is a lot of family to be sure the center always reflects the values of the Late President Kennedy.

It needs its own constitution and by laws to protect it from this level of exploitation. If name changes take place all kinds of financial arrangements could be attached to it.

The center maintains a non-profit status and reflects John Kennedy’s values of civil rights and the movements shaping inclusion and elimination of racism and injustice. The same holds true for any aspect of the Smithsonian. These institutions need to work for all the people including our melting pot of culture and color. Art expression is so important to a healthy society as is truthful history. 

If I wanted to be Queen.

How would I go about taking over the strongest and best democracy of all time with a military priority to guard the very people that are my subjects?

This is a political map of the USA House of 2024. 

It is a daunting task. My predecessors were very successful in securing large tracks of land and a good number of people, but, I will have to over come half the country.  

I suppose I could attack the population of lefties and socialists by removing any and all immigrants back to the beginning of time. That would work and preferably place them in prisons and jails in countries I know they could never return. The courts might be a problem, but, not if I have loyalists in the Department of Homeland Security among the recruits of ICE. I would make it the loyalists benefit in doing the work I order because they can be awarded higher salaries and benefits than they could get in the private sector. I think most of the training is common sense anyway.

Then what?

Well. The Red States are mostly Red States and already loyal to my party. So, that means I only have to terrify and demoralize the blue seats. So, fearlessly target the blue states and districts above all others. That is where all the sympathizers are and they can be arrested, too.

But, there may still be enough voters left over to end this constitution and I promised those patronizing my hijacked media that they would never have to vote again once I am queen. I need to make good on that.

The governors.

The state governors can demand redistricting and add more House of Representatives to the Red Side. My side on election day. Once there are enough PERMANENT Red Districts, the voting won't be necessary. Heck, opposition parties won't be necessary. At that point I think I can declare the USA Constitution dead. 

The same dynamic will have to play out in the Senate. But, there it is six year terms. Governors don't have control necessarily. I will just have to put my thumb on the scale, but, that takes money. I have to maintain my wealth for my sons and daughters upon my death. My husband will probably leave me for the lousy bitch I will become, so he will get his fair share before I die anyway. I will just keep assistants that can accommodate me when I need to enjoy my body's demands. I am old enough to control pregnancy so that won't be an issue. The sweet things can go about pleasing me worry free. Money talks. They will be fine. Heck, money even votes.

But, the money I need will have to come from those wealthy enough to benefit by my powers. So, the ideology of million/billion/trillionaires (I will be the first, of course. I own the currency.) will translate down well to the pion voters who are too poor and uneducated to do anything but dream of the money they can get from me with my powers. They are so mired with undereducation and bad habits they cannot earn enough now. Paycheck to paycheck. 

So. Let's see. The one percent are my besties. The techie besties are even popular. Eminent Domaine is oppositional, unpopular, judicial and such a burden, let's see. Ah, the EPA and Interior.

So, let me recap, terror of authority, appreciation for wealth, gold standard is very popular, bullying the allies because I am the Superpower and can take all the resources I need, land is good, resorts and gambling everywhere, sell pieces of the National Parks and the states most corrupt with my constituency will follow, jerrymandering, aliening with the communists because Israel need to conquer the Middle East for it's oil and I don't want the interference, kill as many Shi'ite holy lineage women I can find, regime change when the people in Iran revolt, the UN Security Council is already a mute issue, and I think that is it.

Oh.

Wait.

I forgot about God. I will write my own rules for morality and watch those that laugh at it die. Because they are the demons that demonize everything.

That should do it.

continued???????

The Republicans are trying to create controversy. The fact is the war in the Middle East is going badly.

Iran experienced a surprise unprovoked attack that killed it's Supreme Leader. Anyone sincerely think the Shia Crescent would not erupt?

Trump's PR team wants a focus on Natalie; is that her name; because if the public is talking about her rather than the Middle East. She is Trump's assistant. What is there to talk about. He gives everyone under the sun who is loyal to him national security clearance. He is a racketeer. End of discussion.

There was a Town Hall in Michigan for the candidates for USA Senate and Mike Rogers didn't attend. He is saying he never agreed to it. So if he never attended he missed out on having his views heard while responding to voters in the audience. He cannot complain the moderator favored El-Sayed because he was the only one being heard. End of discussion.

Trump is barking at everyone he can find, including, the Supreme Court because they did the right thing and rejected Trump's attempt to override the USA Constitution and remove States Rights. Now, he is barking at the Fed. Nothing new there.

One thing Iran must consider in regard the extension of war throughout the Middle East; it plays into Netanyahu's playbook. He was alone and ridiculed before Trump decided the USA military is a mercenary force and attacked Iran without cause. Now, there is increased attacks with drones into places that tend to be exclusively Sunni Arabs. That means the countries of the Middle East are going to form alliances to stand against the disruption by the Crescent. That is not good. Iran will have to bring a war with more countries than Israel and the USA. It escalates this mess that Trump and Netanyahu created to a much larger confrontation. 

Controlling the oil exports is one thing, but, to attack civilians and major cities is another. Iran must take escalation by the Crescent seriously. 

In the USA the price of diesel fuel is rising chronically. It is now $6.79.9 US and rising. This impacts the economy in the way of transportation costs. I am wondering how long companies that rely on mail orders will continue to offer their customers free shipping. The oil supply problem Trump created is a huge issue and that alone will have an impact on my Free World issues.

The planet is heating up, too. So, this is coming at a time when the Free World has to make changes and solar is becoming an energy source of choice. 

It is the law.

Put it back! (click here)

Trump’s name will not appear on the Kennedy Center ever.

It is the law.

It is the law.

It is the law. 

Is no one troubled by the FACT the Board of Trustees of the Kennedy Center is breaking the law by allowing defacement of the building?

The Kennedy Center is a public landmark as well as a memorial to a beloved President that was assassinated. We loved that family for their lives and we still love to hear from Caroline. Maria Shriver is a national treasure as well. There are just some things and some people in this world that matters for no other reason except they are endeared to our legacy as Americans.

The work at the Kennedy Center has spanned decades by welcoming new ideas and talent, but, mostly for the honor paid to great artists that have been a part of the landscape of this great democracy. 

There will be no defacement of the building. 

If Congress can't or won't appropriate monies for the buildings renovation and PRESERVATION then the wrong people are in Congress that won't carry out the work of the American people.

“Ask not what your country can do for you–ask what you can do for your country.” (click here)

That is about humility, morality (God), and public service. The Kennedy Center reflects every bit of JFK's character. That experience is not an ego trip, it is knowing that decency and compassion are real.

On October 14, 1960, at 2 a.m., Senator John F. Kennedy (click here) spoke to a crowd of 10,000 cheering students at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor during a presidential campaign speech. In his improvised speech, Kennedy asked:

"How many of you, who are going to be doctors, are willing to spend your days in Ghana? Technicians or engineers, how many of you are willing to work in the Foreign Service and spend your lives traveling around the world?"

His young audience responded to this speech with a petition signed by 1,000 students willing to serve abroad. Senator Kennedy's challenge to these students—to live and work in developing countries around the world; to dedicate themselves to the cause of peace and development—inspired the beginning of the Peace Corps.

Just two weeks later, in his November 2, 1960, speech at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, Kennedy proposed "a peace corps of talented men and women" who would dedicate themselves to the progress and peace of developing countries. Encouraged by more than 25,000 letters responding to his call, Kennedy took immediate action as president to make the campaign promise a reality....

The Late President John F. Kennedy was a man of vision, peace, and respect for human potential. He loved people and they loved him.

As a Peace Corps Volunteer (click here) in south India in the mid-1960s, Joel Shapiro taught villagers how to dig latrines, build smokeless ovens, and utilize night soil for more productive vegetable gardens, among other sustainability initiatives. More than 50 years later, his sculptures and works on paper are in the permanent collections of museums all over the world: New York City’s Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Whitney Museum of American Art; down south at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas; out west at California’s Los Angeles County Museum of Art; and across the Atlantic at the Tate Gallery in London, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, the Kunstmuseum in Winterthur, Switzerland, the Stedelijk in Amsterdam, and the Museé National d’Art Moderne in Paris.

He has also done two large commissions through the Foundation for Art and Preservation in Embassies. One, Conjunction, was installed in 1999 outside the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa, Ontario; and another, Now, was installed in 2013 outside the newly built U.S. Consulate in Guangzhou, China. In fall 2019, his monolithic Blue was installed on the campus of Washington, D.C.’s Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

The Late President is honored in a legacy that cannot be defaced. 

Islamophobia. Can Abdul overcome it?

This is exactly what is occurring with this midterm election.

Abdul El-Sayed is extremely qualified to be a USA Senator for the State of Michigan. Unfortunately the current Islamophobic ads spawned by Republicans were created to instill fear. They were made before the Democratic Primaries.

In the primaries Republicans crossed party lines and voted for a candidate whom they believed they could smear and win the election. The Republican candidate is white man. He is also PROVEN to be corrupt to the core. There is no way Michiganders should be voting for Mike Rogers and the RNC knows it. So does Trump. So, the Republicans set out to overwhelm Michiganders with lies and political smears about the Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed. He is absolutely a magnificent candidate and I am glad he won the primary. But, Democrats have to get out and walk the pavements of their neighborhoods and get him elected.

If Michiganders don't overwhelmingly elect his man they are only proving they believe the TV ads more than his resume. 

His resume:

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is a physician, epidemiologist, public servant, and Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate in Michigan.

Don, Jr. is in bed with Putin.

This is the guy that is going to liberate Greenland. Baloney. Junior is probably hoping to take up residence next to Assad.

September 14, 2026
by Justin Elliott, Brett Murphy, Joshua Kaplan and Alex Mierjeski

On May 24, (click here) Donald Trump Jr. was celebrating in the Bahamas, as scantily clad dancers in stilettos and sailor caps performed for him and his guests. It was the last night of his wedding, a lavish, three-day party held across a pair of ultra-exclusive private islands. A five-tier funfetti cake had been airlifted in from Florida, and helicopters and seaplanes descended on the islands before guests settled into their oceanfront villas. That night on the beach, Trump Jr. lifted his bride into the air while fireworks launched from a barge over the sea.

“It was everything we dreamed of and more,” his wife later wrote on Instagram.

That dream was heavily funded by a secret benefactor: Umar Kremlev, a Russian oligarch close to President Vladimir Putin....

Kremlev is not his original name. He took the name to sound Russian. Kremlev has been groomed by the Kremlin.

It is all Russian money.

Umar Lutfulloyev is his Tajik original name.

It is all corruption. He is a Putin oligarch. He got that way because of the Kremlin. He was made president of the Russian boxing organization and from there went on to the International Boxing Association. The reason the IOC decertified the IBA is because Kremlev has Gasprom as sponsor. 

It is all an attempt to legitimize a Russian at an international level to corrupt the sport and give favor to Russian athletes. 

Not only that buy Kremlev controls the gambling establishment in Russia.

...The IOC decertified the IBA (click here) and took control of the boxing competition from the IBA at the 2024 Paris Olympics, just as it had done at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The IOC stated that the IBA had failed to address concerns regarding governance, finance, and corruption.

Since then, Kremlev has emerged as one of the key purveyors of Russian disinformation in international sports.. Kremlev has stirred controversy by claiming, falsely and without evidence, that the female boxer Imane Khelif failed her gender test after she defeated a Russian boxer, and has allegedly referred to IOC president Thomas Bach as a "chief sodomite"...

Boxing in Russia is widely popular. It covers the corruption within the country.

...At the same time, (click here) boxing has traditionally been associated with the underworld – many Russian mob leaders of the 80-90s came out of this sport. For example, boxing was practiced by Vladimir Kumarin, the leader of the St. Petersburg mafia, associated with Putin and his entourage. Before Murov, the Russian Boxing Federation (FBR) had already been headed by two men with criminal backgrounds – first, the Krasnoyarsk authority Anatoly Bykov, nicknamed “Tolya the Bull,” and Eduard Khusainov, nicknamed “Khusain,” who came from the Balashikha gang. These two worlds – Putin’s guards and bandits – were bound to cross paths sooner or later....

...In 2016, there was a “shift change” in Russian boxing – Murov and Ivanyuzhenkov handed over control of the federation to another pair of guard and hardcore criminal – Alexei Rubezhnoi and Umar Kremlev. Rubezhnoi became head of the supervisory board, the federation’s charter was amended to cancel the vote, and Rubezhnoi simply appointed Kremlev, who was little known in the boxing world at the time, as the new president....

...According to an acquaintance of Kremlev’s, Rubezhnoi at least once organized a private audience with Putin for his twice-convicted friend. Putin gave Kremlev a medal of the Order of Merit to the Fatherland, 2nd degree. But the main reward Kremlev got was somethig else.

“Thanks to one person, today there are actually unlimited opportunities to both make money and strive. This person is, of course, our President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin,“ Kremlev said in one of his recent interviews.

Putin has indeed given Kremlev and his guard Rubezhnoi almost unlimited opportunities to make money....

It is not private money. Most of the oligarchs in Russia started with state owned business. Kremlev is no different. The companies he claims his wealth from were nationalized and then transferred to him. In other words, Russia took ownership away from the original owner and then reassigned the company to a man Putin trusts, in this case Kremlev. And, why not? Kremlev is a boxing tycoon. Russia loves him.

...This was not the first generous gift Kremlev received from the state. Since 2014, in Russia, only the state, i.e. the Ministry of Sport or the Ministry of Finance, can act as a lottery organizer. However, ticket sales and winnings distribution are handled by private firms – lottery organizers who have billions of rubles of lottery money going through them. In 2019, the government appointed one of Kremlev’s companies

Kremlev as the operator of National Lottery. It was this lottery that soon became the new “strategic partner” of the boxing federation.

Proekt has established that Kremlev, through his proxies, has also become the beneficiary of three of Russia’s leading betting companies. The brands in question are Fonbet, Pari and Liga Stavok, which the Kremlev’s men took over in 2022-2023....

Juniors wedding was paid for by very, very corrupt Russian money. Why is this an issue? Because Trump's family has security clearance in the USA.

Trump has to know this statement is as loaded as it comes.

President Trump lashed out (click here) at calls for new AI guardrails and protections on Monday, arguing AI only needs a "STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT" and that AI critics should "BEWARE!"...

COMMENTS?

Poor Donald. He is absolutely unglued.

I worked in an agricultural research library in Princeton, New Jersey for an international company when Derwent Patent Research (click here) was state of the art on punch cards.

I was around when dot matrix printers and Apple 2e was state of the art. The science of computers have come a very long way. Now, the geniuses that have harnessed the knowledge of these marvels are warning the people about the EXPECTED danger of artificial intelligence.

I believe them.

Is it not better to be safe than sorry? Is it not prudent to take a time out to be sure rather than unleashing a computer capacity that can turn against the human beings that allowed it's creation?

In China today, computer technology is already state of the art. Chinese data centers run cooler and as a result have a greater capacity. There isn't anything the USA can do to outclass the Chinese until it becomes responsible for the adversity the USA data centers cause the American people. 

The Republicans started this a long time ago when any sort of computer technology was never to be regulated. They stated it is more important to grow the technology and let it have economic impact.

Well, I think when the very leaders of the industry have a conscience and are the ones benefitting from the freedom to explore frontiers, but, state it is time to assess where we are and where we are going, it is absolutely time to do that.

China (click here) is trying to solve its water-consuming, power-draining data center problems by moving them under the sea. Shanghai Hailanyun Technology (HiCloud), in collaboration with several government agencies, launched what it's calling the world's first wind-powered underwater data center in May 2026. It sits about 32 feet below the ocean's surface off the coast of Shanghai's Lin-gang Special Area, surrounded by a wind farm of more than 50 turbines. It houses about 2,000 servers, which is a small- to average-sized data center. Larger hyperscale data centers can house at least 5,000 servers. At full capacity, HiCloud's facility will operate at 24 megawatts. If running continuously for a year, it would use the same electricity as 20,000 U.S. homes. Engineers hope the $228-million project will solve the three critical data center concerns: electricity, cooling, and land use....

There is already a majority Republican House and Senate.

 If Trump were going to hand out $5000 bribes it would already be done.

Holy Shit, the Speaker of the House?

The Republicans are corrupt to the core. Johnson actually went along with Trump’s bribe? They are disgusting.

Ya know what $5000 buys in the USA these days? A demolished East Wing of the White House, an Illegal war in the Middle East, dead soldiers, demolished jets worth billions if not a trillion USA, and national security that really sucks. That is what a $5000 bribe buys any American that falls for it!

It also buys an ego driven president that insists on putting his name on the Late President John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s Memorial Art Center IN EXCHANGE for a DONATION to renovate the building. Well, Donald the PROPER way for the Board of Untrustworthy Trustees to handle any funding for renovations is to ask Congress for it. That building was TITLED to the memory of the most beloved President this country ever had and putting the name of Trump on it is liking spitting on his grave!

Order the Smithsonian to place an oversized statue of George Washington on property but don’t order the repairs on the John F. Kennedy Memorial Art Center and order the removal of a beloved abstract statue from the property. Donald John Trump you are disgusting and the most immoral an ever to live in Washington, DC.

Trump is misguided about AI.

Donald doesn’t care if he kills people, including Americans. 

He states the USA has to cut more with China. Not at all. China’s AI technology has suffered deaths of young scientists. The deaths are being blamed on the pressure of the government to produce AI weaponry for their military. 

When AI in China was first discussed it was stated there was an unplanned accident where deaths resulted. 

The Chinese program is hardly successful if they can’t even keep their scientists alive. 

AI has to be regulated. China can continue to have dead scientists and accidents that kill because of their ambitions, but, perhaps Chinese AI will turn on its masters and we won’t have to worry about it at all. 

Our military doesn’t need it. It is the finest military in the world. Trump has bought into Artificial Intelligence and replacing American workers with computers to the point of dysfunction. AI needs to be regulated to prevent harm to us all.

Absolutely not!

Air Force Major Jason Watson

Bring Hegseth up on charges. This is an act against the Major is hostility against the First Amendment.

This is a highly competent airman with sincere concerns for the military, this country, and his peers. He is allowed in every way possible to act as a whistleblower when there are illegal orders and/or danger to our country through malpractice of military standards.

Whistleblowing is not covered anywhere in the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Whistleblowing is not contemptuous speech. The exercising of malicious prosecution under the UCMJ is just as serious, even more so, as the civil penalties.

Whistleblowing to protect the very country he is defending is vital to the USA Constitution. There is absolutely no misunderstanding about the warning Airman Major Watson told to the public. They are our men and women that put their lives on the line everyday and if ANY margin of safety is violated when it should not be and endangers these magnificent Americans the public not only should know, it has a right to know. 

I suppose every person on the USS Abraham Lincoln that told their families what deplorable conditions they faced should be charged as well.

The facts are very, very plain. Hegseth is in his capacity as Secretary of Defense because the president insists on it. Hegseth is the worst Secretary of Defense this country has every witnessed. He endangers the military with his FALSE STATEMENTS ABOUT EVERY MILITARY MOVEMENT IS AN EMERGENCY. 

August 25, 2026
By Charles D'Agata and Eleanor Watson

A U.S. airman (click here) says he is facing charges for criticizing President Trump over the Iran war, which his attorneys believe to be among one of the only instances an officer of his rank has been charged under the uniform code of military justice for contemptuous words against officials.

Major Jason Watson, 40, has been detained twice in recent weeks. On one occasion, he called for Mr. Trump's impeachment — while in uniform at the U.S. Capitol.

A spokesperson for the Air Force on Tuesday confirmed that he was charged with three violations of Article 88, including for contempt toward Officials. The violations are disobeying orders and conduct unbecoming an officer....

Israel has a chronic state of emergency since it was originally authorized. Israel's state of emergency is NOT the state of emergency of the USA nor will it ever be.

The Case of Israel (click here)

It is a basic assumption pertaining to emergency arrangements in democratic

regimes that the state of emergency will be relatively transitory. This

transience is one of the justifications for granting far-reaching powers to the

executive authority to allow it to cope with the exigencies of the emergency,

even if the measures employed by it in that process entail the infringement of

constitutional principles of the legal system including an impairment of

human rights. On occasion, the measures are the result of exaggerated

assessments of the risks facing society, assessments which cause the public to

be willing to temporarily tolerate these infringements. As Justice Brennan of

the United States Supreme Court commented in relation to the American

experience:

The sudden national fervour causes people to exaggerate the security risks

posed by allowing individuals to exercise their civil liberties and to

become willing 'temporarily' to sacrifice liberties as part of the war

effort. 

"Free peoples", says Carr, "when they temporarily surrender freedom, will

expect to see their inheritance restored to them when the storm is over"....

Major Jason Watson is needed in his office as Major in the USA Air Force. He is more valuable than Trump or Hegseth could ever be. Every military personnel has a RIGHT to a safety margin for them the USA can create. It is paramount to their service they believe they will make it home and see their family again. It is also very, very obvious Hegseth cares little about the people that serve this country and their familiies. The Major is a great American and we need him to speak to us and end danger to all the people in our military. 

Hegseth has lost enormous numbers of planes in a conflict that is of choice and completely unnecessary. The Striates of Hormuz were never and I mean never a concern until Trump took office and Hegseth kissed the ring. 

Major Watson needs to return to work because he is an innocent man and capable of verbalizing the sincere danger the Air Force faces under Trump and Hegseth.

Don't deny it.

Three soldiers died in Jordan and those are just the latest statistics. Hegseth is more of an enemy to the USA than Iran ever could be.

Ashley St. Clare is a great American. I wish Elon Musk was. Musk wants to vanquish the truth. Why?

It was strange Elon Musk even wanted Twitter enough to pay enormous amounts of money.

Elon Musk once told Trump, “But, you have to do something about the elites.” What that meant, I don’t know. But, it sure explains the attacks against Harvard and the others. It could be just blatant hate talking, too.

An understanding between Iran and Oman (click here) does not provide for the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz but establishes the basis on which it could reopen, an Iranian source told the semi-official Tasnim news agency on Saturday.

The source said the arrangement would be a step towards Iran exercising sovereignty over the strait and that its reopening depended entirely on the United States meeting Tehran's conditions.

That is exactly correct. They are meeting and negotiating. There are peaceful talks between the two countries that line the Persian Gulf. I am certain a big part of it is reassurances that Oman will not arm itself with USA weapons aimed at Iran or that Oman will not continue the USA blockade.

Again.

These are the two sovereign powers that have the Persian Gulf and the Straits of Hormuz as their waters and land. There is nothing wrong going on and Oman has been a strong peace negotiator before all this mess started with Trump and Hegseth. Oman is not attacking Iran.

Pandora's Box

A report released (click here) by The Wall Street Journal on Saturday said Chinese entities supplied Iran with satellite images of a base in Jordan before and after an attack that killed three US soldiers. US President Donald Trump has warned Beijing not to sell weapons to Iran, and in May, Washington sanctioned three China-based satellite firms for enabling Iran's military operations.

See every country in the world see the USA very differently since Trump declared war on the world. When the USA became the world's only Superpower it was a feeling of reassurance and safety, but, then Trump aligned with Netanyahu and the belief the two together could annihilate every thing and everyone that bothered them. 

The Communists embraced Trump as someone they can trust, mentor, and defeat the USA from the inside and for all we know they are receiving intelligence from Trump. But, when it comes to the USA military those that would seek to exploit its power believes it is undefeatable and endless in the capacity as a war machine. That is not the case. At all. Soldiers, no matter the gender or sexual orientation, are still human beings with vulnerability. The USA military was always meant to be a defense force. It is not a war machine and never will be. By, using it as a war machine the enemy can deteriorate readiness and eliminate national security. 

Can there be another 911? Under Trump. Count on it.

See that area named "Houthi Stronghold" in the map to the right. Well, that is where the Houthi soldiers come from, but, they have already left that stronghold to carry out a strategy against Trump. It is just that Saudi Arabia is in the way.

After Iran came under unprovoked attack as Israel continued it's war against anything that moves, the Houthis kissed their children and bid their wives a farewell. The towns where these rebels live will take care of each other while their soldiers work for Allah. The USA is AGAIN the great evil.

Trump would want to bomb the stronghold in hopes of ending the supply of jihadists now occupying towns belonging to Yemen and Saudi Arabia. But, that is going to kill innocent civilians. Not that Trump cares, but, it won't eliminate the problem and if Hegseth thinks he can marshal Yemen to fight the Houthis he is delusional.

Now the Saudis are asking the USA to take care of the war that Trump brought to them. That is the problem here. The entire world looks to the USA military to do it's bidding and that is why Israel believed once Trump was in their back pocket their dreams would come true. 

The current administration needs to come to the reality they blew any chance at world peace. They need to stop living with the delusion the USA can do anything it sets it's sights on and end this mess and GO HOME! When the USA pulls out of the Persian Gulf the region will have to contend with itself and make peace a priority. But, as long as Trump thinks he is the military god of the great apocalypse this will continue to grow out of control.

...It’s a nightmare scenario for Saudi Arabia, (click here) and it has sent jitters through global markets.

The Saudis’ most essential ally, the United States, has been unpredictable and sometimes unreliable. U.S. President Donald Trump seems reluctant to widen an already unpopular and stalemated Mideast war ahead of congressional elections. For Iran, the rebels’ advance and closure of the pipeline ramp up global economic pressure as its grip over the Strait of Hormuz has been loosened.

Michael Ratney, a former U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia, said the latest developments are “incredibly frustrating” for the kingdom.

“Despite their antipathy for the Iranians, this is a war they had never asked for, they had great trepidation about. And once it started, all of their … worst-case scenarios started coming true.”...

The incompetent war of Trump.

This time it was Iran in retaliation for strikes by Trump. Last time it was simply service people exhausted by Hegseth's chronic emergency status of the USA military.

This is so hideous. The attacks by Iran have nothing to do with the elections of 2026. This is all about the presence of the USA in the Middle East and the continued turbulence caused by that presence. 

Trump has opened Pandora''s Box in the Middle East and has no clue how to end it.

At U.N. meeting, Yemen seeks international support in its conflict with Houthis (click here)

Yemen's special envoy to the United Nations called on support from the international community after the Iran-backed Houthi militant group seized control of the Red Sea port city of Mokha.

"This renewed war should alarm us all," Hans Grundberg, the U.N. special envoy for Yemen, warned at an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council on Thursday.

"It effectively marks the end of the relative calm that Yemen has experienced for over four years since the U.N.-brokered truce," Grundberg said.

He called on the international community to address this "new and more dangerous phase – one whose consequences, if left unchecked, will not stay within Yemen's borders."

The cost of diesel fuel to truckers and farmers is now $6.00 per gallon. Trump doesn't care. He hates and he wants to kill. The American people mean nothing to Trump. The people of the USA simply have to continue to struggle, pay their taxes and shut up about the warring in the Middle East. Trump is using our military for his own purposes.

Multiple American military aircraft (click here) were damaged in Iranian strikes overnight Tuesday into Wednesday local time on Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, people with direct knowledge of the matter told CBS News.

One A-10 Thunderbolt, an attack aircraft known as the Warthog, was struck and lost a wing, the sources said.

Roughly eight F-15s sustained light damage and were put back into service, according to the people familiar with the damage, who spoke to CBS News under the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

No U.S. deaths have been reported in the strikes on Jordan.

The overnight damage came after the U.S. said Tuesday it attacked five Iranian tankers in retaliation for Iran targeting a U.S. Navy warship. In response, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed it launched attacks at eight tankers and two warships, including the base in Jordan.

U.S. forces in Jordan launched more than 30 Patriot missiles defending against the Iranian strikes in Jordan.

CBS News previously reported that U.S. officials are concerned over the rapidly declining stockpile of Patriot missiles among other types of precision munitions..

Drones...

These are our allies. They are under attack. What does Trump think he is doing? He has no strategy or goal. Jump bomb everything living thing he hates.

Saudi Arabia has shut down its East-West Pipeline (click here) as a precaution after reporting attacks on the strategically important line, the state news agency SPA reported on Friday, citing a source in the Energy Ministry.

The pipeline is capable of transporting oil from the Gulf to the Red Sea, bypassing the effectively blockaded Strait of Hormuz.

Several people were injured in the attack on Thursday, SPA said. The necessary measures have been taken to secure the pipeline, it added....

A bribe is money, a gift, or something of value given or promised to someone—often a public official or person in power—to unlawfully or dishonestly influence their decisions, actions, or judgment.

May have opened himself up to a "legitimate" legal issue?

May have?

No, he did. Absolutely he is breaking the law, but, racketeers don't care.

By Alexander Willis

President Donald Trump (click here) may have opened himself up to a “legitimate” legal issue Wednesday night after promising Americans $5,000 dividend checks, a number of experts warned.

Speaking at the RNC midterm convention in Dallas, Texas, Trump pledged to award Americans with $5,000 if Republicans end up performing well in the midterms and maintain their congressional majority....
