NASA Astronaut Tracy C. Dyson’s Scientific Mission aboard Space Station

Sep 18, 2024

NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson is returning home after a six-month mission aboard the International Space Station.

While on orbit, Dyson conducted an array of experiments and technology demonstrations that contribute to advancements for humanity on Earth and the agency’s trajectory to the Moon and Mars.

Here is a look at some of the science Dyson conducted during her mission:

Heart-Shaped Bioprints

NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson operates the BioFabrication Facility for the Redwire Cardiac Bioprinting Investigation, which 3D prints cardiovascular tissue samples.

In microgravity, bio inks used for 3D printing are less likely to settle and retain their shape better than on Earth.

Cardiovascular disease is currently the number one cause of death in the United States, and findings from this space station investigation could one day lead to 3D-printed organs such as hearts for patients awaiting transplants.

Wicking in Weightlessness

NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson handles hardware for the Wicking in Gel-Coated Tubes (Gaucho Lung) experiment.

This study uses a tube lined with various gel thicknesses to simulate the human respiratory system.

A fluid mass known as a liquid plug is then observed as it either blocks or flows through the tube.

Data regarding the movement and trailing of the liquid plug allows researchers to design better drug delivery methods to address respiratory ailments.

Programming for Future Missions

NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson runs student-designed software on the free-flying Astrobee robot.

This technology demonstration is part of Zero Robotics, a worldwide competition that engages middle school students in writing computer code to address unique specifications.

Winning participants get to run their software on an actual Astrobee aboard the space station.

This educational opportunity helps inspire the next generation of technology innovators.

Robo-Extensions

As we venture to the Moon and Mars, astronauts may rely more on robots to ensure safety and preserve resources.

Through the Surface Avatar study, NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson controls a robot on Earth’s surface from a computer aboard station.

This technology demonstration aims to toggle between manipulating multiple robots and “diving inside” a specific bot to control as an avatar.

This two-way demonstration also evaluates how robot operators respond their robotic counterparts’ efficiency and general output.

Applications for Earth use include exploration of inhospitable zones and search and rescue missions after disasters.

Capturing Earth’s Essence

For Crew Earth Observations, astronauts take pictures of Earth from space for research purposes.

NASA astronauts Suni Williams (left) and Tracy C. Dyson (right) contribute by aiming handheld cameras from the space station’s cupola to photograph our planet.

Images help inform climate and environmental trends worldwide and provide real-time natural disaster assessments.

More than four million photographs have been taken of Earth by astronauts from space.

https://thehill.com/homenews/4887201-entire-board-resigns-23andme/

TheENTIREboard of 23 and me resigned….

All seven independent directors of 23andMe’s board resigned on Tuesday, citing disagreements over the chief executive’s plan to take the company private.

The departures leave just one sitting member of the board, its chair, Anne Wojcicki, who co-founded the genetics-testing company in 2006 and serves as its chief executive officer.

Wojcicki submitted a proposal in late July to take the company private, after earlier expressing interest in acquiring the company back in April. The board’s Special Committee rejected her proposal, noting it didn’t provide a premium to the closing price at the time of 40 cents per share and it lacked committed financing.

The Special Committee gave Wojcicki a “limited amount of additional time” to revise her proposal to take the company private.

In their letter Tuesday, however, the board members wrote, “After months of work, we have yet to receive from you a fully financed, fully diligenced, actionable proposal that is in the best interests of the non-affiliated shareholders.”

“We believe the Special Committee and the Board have provided ample time for you to submit such a proposal. That we have not seen any notable progress over the last 5 months leads us to believe no such proposal is forthcoming,” the letter continued, adding that there would be no further extensions to revise such a proposal.

The directors, who largely did not support the plan to take the company private, said it “is clear that we differ on the strategic direction for the Company going forward” and said they thought it was in the best interests of the company and its shareholders to resign, “rather than have a protracted and distracting difference of view with you as to the direction of the Company.”

The company went public in 2021, when a special purpose acquisition company valued it at around $3.5 billion, CNBC reported. The company now has a market cap of under $200 million and closed at 34 cents per share on Tuesday.

The company was tremendously successful after first entering the mainstream because of the at-home DNA kits that provided insight into people’s genetic history. The company struggled to maintain a steady stream of revenue, however, since the at-home kits only require customers to make a one-time purchase.

After receiving a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department in November 20, notifying the company that it had 180 days to bring the share price to $1, the board formed the Special Committee to consider paths forward.

Wojcicki sent a memo to employees on Tuesday saying she was “surprised and disappointed” by the resignations and doubling down on her commitment to taking the company private.

Reinventing the Clock: NASA’s New Tech for Space Timekeeping

Sep 18, 2024

Here on Earth, it might not matter if your wristwatch runs a few seconds slow. But crucial spacecraft functions need accuracy down to one billionth of a second or less.

Navigating with GPS, for example, relies on precise timing signals from satellites to pinpoint locations.

Three teams at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, are at work to push timekeeping for space exploration to new levels of precision.

One team develops highly precise quantum clock synchronization techniques to aid essential spacecraft communication and navigation.

Another Goddard team is working to employ the technique of clock synchronization in space-based platforms to enable telescopes to function as one enormous observatory.

The third team is developing an atomic clock for spacecraft based on strontium, a metallic chemical element, to enable scientific observations not possible with current technology.

The need for increasingly accurate timekeeping is why these teams at NASA Goddard, supported by the center’s Internal Research and Development program, hone clock precision and synchronization with innovative technologies like quantum and optical communications.

“Society requires clock synchronization for many crucial functions like power grid management, stock market openings, financial transactions, and much more,” said Alejandro Rodriguez Perez, a NASA Goddard researcher.

“NASA uses clock synchronization to determine the position of spacecraft and set navigation parameters.”

If you line up two clocks and sync them together, you might expect that they will tick at the same rate forever.

In reality, the more time passes, the more out of sync the clocks become, especially if those clocks are on spacecraft traveling at tens of thousands of miles per hour.

Rodriguez Perez seeks to develop a new way of precisely synchronizing such clocks and keeping them synced using quantum technology.

In quantum physics, two particles are entangled when they behave like a single object and occupy two states at once.

For clocks, applying quantum protocols to entangled photons could allow for a precise and secure way to sync clocks across long distances.

The heart of the synchronization protocol is called spontaneous parametric down conversion, which is when one photon breaks apart and two new photons form.

Two detectors will each analyze when the new photons appear, and the devices will apply mathematical functions to determine the offset in time between the two photons, thus synchronizing the clocks.

While clock synchronization is currently done using GPS, this protocol could make it possible to precisely synchronize clocks in places where GPS access is limited, like the Moon or deep space.

When it comes to astronomy, the usual rule of thumb is the bigger the telescope, the better its imagery.

“If we could hypothetically have a telescope as big as Earth, we would have incredibly high-resolution images of space, but that’s obviously not practical,” said Guan Yang, an optical physicist at NASA Goddard.

“What we can do, however, is have multiple telescopes in various locations and have each telescope record the signal with high time precision. Then we can stich their observations together and produce an ultra-high-res image.”

Departure Preps Underway as New Crew Steps up Science, Maintenance

September 18, 2024

Two crews are nearing the end of their stay aboard the International Space Station while the orbital residents continue ongoing microgravity research and lab maintenance.

Next week will see the departure of NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson and Roscosmos cosmonauts Oleg Kononenko and Nikolai Chub.

The trio will undock the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft from the Prichal docking module at 4:37 a.m. EDT on Sept. 23, soar into Earth’s atmosphere, and parachute to a landing in Kazakhstan at 8 a.m.

Dyson will be wrapping up a six-month mission while Kononenko and Chub will be completing just over a year of continuously orbiting Earth.

The homebound crewmates entered the Soyuz MS-25 today and practiced undocking and descent procedures.

Dyson also continued packing personal items and other cargo for return to Earth.

Kononenko and Chub tried on a lower body negative pressure suit suit that may help crews adjust quicker to Earth’s gravity then tested controls and systems inside the Soyuz spacecraft.

A couple of weeks after the Soyuz crew’s return to Earth, the four SpaceX Crew-8 members Matthew Dominick, Mike Barratt, Jeanette Epps, and Alexander Grebenkin will depart.

Dominick’s three crewmates Barratt, Epps, and Grebenkin, entered the SpaceX Dragon Endurance spacecraft docked to the Harmony module’s forward port and reviewed operations and procedures.

Dominick spent his day in the Destiny laboratory module completing work begun the day before and replaced components on an oxygen generator.

The orbital outpost’s newest crew with NASA astronaut Don Pettit and Roscosmos cosmonauts Alexey Ovchinin and Ivan Vagner arrived at the station aboard the Soyuz MS-26 crew ship on Sept. 11.

The trio has mostly completed its station familiarization activities and is stepping up daily science and maintenance tasks.

Pettit worked Wednesday inside the Kibo laboratory module and loaded a CubeSat-packed deployer into Kibo’s airlock.

The CubeSats will be deployed into Earth orbit for a series of technology demonstrations.

Ovchinin and Vagner continued exploring how their circulatory system is adapting to the weightless environment.

NASA Flight Engineers Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who have been aboard the station since June 6, took turns Wednesday reviewing SpaceX Dragon spacecraft systems.

Wilmore also tested the Sphere Camera-2 for its ability to take high-resolution imagery in space.

Williams cleaned and inspected smoke detectors, reconfigured a radiation detector, then helped Dominick clean up after his oxygen generator work.

China's Yutu 2 rover still going strong after nearly 6 years on the far side of the moon

September 19, 2024

China's lunar rover Yutu 2 is still active on the far side of the moon nearly six years after its historic touchdown.

Earlier this year, China aced the complex Chang'e 6 mission to land on the far side of the moon, collect samples and deliver them to Earth.

But the Chang'e 4 mission, which pulled off the first-ever landing on the lunar far side in January 2019 and helped pave the way for Chang'e 6, is still going strong.

The Chang'e 4 rover Yutu 2, or Jade Rabbit 2, has completed 71 lunar days of activity, according to a rare update on the mission.

It was designed to operate for just three lunar days, or about three Earth months.

The update, released to mark the day of the full moon in the eighth month, or Mid-Autumn Festival in Chinese culture, includes images from Yutu 2 showing Von Karman Crater in the South Pole-Aitken Basin on the far side of the moon.

The images show drive tracks in the lunar regolith, numerous craters of varying sizes, and distant lunar hills.

The rover is also revealed to have driven a total of 5,292 feet (1,613 meters) to date. The update indicates that Yutu 2 appears to have been slowing down in recent times.

It had accumulated 4,265 feet (1,300 m) of driving by September 2022, or just over three and a half years on the moon.

It has added just over 1,000 feet (305 m) in the following two years.

It is unclear what part factors such as possible gradual degradation of the rover itself due to the harsh temperature and radiation environment, growing demands of other lunar missions, or more complex lunar terrain play in Yutu 2's less expansive driving in recent years.

Additionally, Zuo Wei, deputy chief designer of the Chang'e 4 mission's ground application system, told China Central Television (CCTV) that an even older Chang'e lander, which touched down on the near side in 2013, is still operational.

"The moon-based optical telescope on board the Chang'e 3 lander is still operational, performing regular on-off cycles every month, though it is no longer conducting scientific observations," said Zuo.

China also has two orbiters, Queqiao and Queqiao 2, operating in lunar orbit to support lunar far side missions.

The country's next lunar landing mission, Chang'e 7, is scheduled for 2026 and will target the moon's south pole.

SpaceX Crew-9 astronaut launch delayed to Sept. 26

September 19, 2024

The next space station astronaut mission has been delayed to Sept. 26.

The delay in the SpaceX Crew-9 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) is to allow teams to "work through prelaunch operations and hardware processing ahead of the first human spaceflight launch from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, while also monitoring weather ahead of liftoff," NASA officials wrote in an emailed statement.

The launch is now scheduled for no earlier than 2:05 p.m. EDT (1805 GMT) on Sept. 26. If Crew-9 misses the Sept. 26 opportunity, backup dates are available on Sept. 27 and 28.

Crew-9 will be the first human launch from Space Launch Complex-40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, which normally has infrastructure available for satellite missions.

Humans require a launch tower with walkable access to the spacecraft, among many other changes.

Crew-9 was originally manifested to launch four astronauts in the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft, for a mission lasting until February 2025.

Now it will now only send two crew aboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket: NASA astronaut and U.S. Space Force commander Nick Hague, and Roscosmos astronaut and mission specialist Aleksandr Gorbunov.

Hague will be the first active Space Force Guardian to launch to space, in addition to launching from a Space Force-operated launch pad.

Crew Dragon's other two seats, which were supposed to be for NASA astronauts Zena Cardman and Stephanie Wilson, will hold mass simulators instead. (Wilson and Cardman remain eligible for future ISS assignments.)

That will leave room for two other NASA astronauts on the ISS to return due to being unable to fly home on their originally assigned spacecraft.

The ISS astronauts waiting for SpaceX's arrival are Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who reached the orbiting complex June 6 during Boeing Starliner's first crewed mission.

The docking with ISS did not go to plan, as five thrusters (out of 28) of the reaction control system misbehaved. Months of ground and space analysis followed.

NASA eventually determined it did not have enough confidence in knowing what happened to accept the risk of flying Wilmore and Williams home on Starliner.

Starliner then returned empty to Earth on Sept. 6 without major incident, and investigation continues into the causes of Starliner's issues and how that will affect future Starliner flights.

The Starliner astronauts were expected to spend 10 days in space.

NASA had numerous backups available as the mission was developmental, however, meaning the schedule was less certain given the design and operations of the spacecraft had uncertainty given it was the first crewed mission.

Among the backup measures: Extra food, oxygen and other supplies were already on ISS in case of mission extension.

Starliner's astronauts were trained on ISS duties, refreshing knowledge they already had from previous lengthy stays on the orbiting complex.

Now NASA is implementing a plan to bring the astronauts back home on a different spacecraft than expected.

For the time being, if there was an emergency evacuation from ISS, Wilmore and Williams would ride home on the already docked SpaceX Crew-8 spacecraft that has four seats and four astronauts as well.

The Starliner duo would be in the cargo area below the seats without wearing spacesuits, as Crew Dragon is not designed to work with the Starliner suits they used.

NASA sourced one SpaceX spacesuit on the ISS for Williams' return on Crew Dragon, and a second spacesuit is being flown up for Wilmore aboard Crew-9.

Once Crew-9 arrives at ISS, that will become the evacuation route for Williams and Wilmore.

The Starliner astronauts are now part of the current Expedition 71 ISS crew and their February 2025 return means they will spend approximately eight months in space.

For perspective, a typical ISS mission is five or six months long and astronauts have safely finished missions of 12 months or more.

Crew-9 has been delayed already; its original launch date was Aug. 18, but that was pushed as NASA made the final decision about how to bring the Starliner astronauts home.

Rocket Lab aborts launch of 5 'Internet of Things' satellites at last second

September 18, 2024

Rocket Lab aborted a launch at the last second today (Sept. 18).

The company's Electron rocket was scheduled to launch five "Internet of Things" satellites for the French company Kinéis today at 7 p.m. EDT (2300 GMT) from New Zealand.

The countdown clock reached zero, and Electron appeared to fire up its first-stage engines.

But they immediately shut down, resulting in an abort.

"Since today's mission required an instantaneous launch, we'll be standing down from further launch attempts today.

The team is assessing opportunities for the next launch attempt and we'll share more information here shortly,"

Rocket Lab wrote in an update on X shortly after the abort.

The launch window extends for 14 days, Rocket Lab has previously said.

Rocket Lab calls this mission "Kinéis Killed the RadIOT Star." It will be the company's second launch for Kinéis, after a five-satellite liftoff on June 20.

Kinéis plans to loft a total of 25 satellites using Rocket Lab's Electron, a small-satellite launcher that stands 59 feet (18 meters) tall. Rocket Lab has 52 orbital missions under its belt to date, including 10 in 2024.

Businesswoman at the centre of exploding pager plot was 'vague' about her company's activities, ex-boyfriend reveals

The British-educated Hungarian businesswoman at the centre of the exploding pager plot was described as ‘vague’ about her company’s activities, according to her former boyfriend.

Cristiana Bársony-Arcidiacono, 49, set up the company bearing her initials in reverse order in May 2022, according to company records.

Despite claims published in the New York Times that the Budapest-based firm was part of a complex web of Mossad shell companies, Ms Bársony-Arcidiacono denied having any knowledge of the plot.

‘I don't make the beepers. I'm just the intermediary. I think you have misunderstood,’ she told a reporter yesterday before going to ground.

But a former boyfriend described her as less than forthcoming on business matters.

‘Whenever I asked about what her business involved, she would never actually say what she was doing, she would just say “trading as usual”, it was always a bit vague,’ he recalled.

Ms Bársony-Arcidiacono was born in Catania, Sicily and her mother Beatrice still lives in Italy, according to friends.

When Cristiana set up her company two years ago, she listed her address as that of her grandmother Borbala, who died three years ago aged 93.

A neighbour of Cristina’s grandmother, retired electrician Mihaly Lovasz, 77, told MailOnline that she wasn’t a regular visitor to the £85,000 8th floor flat in Ujspet, a working class district of the capital.

‘She would come for the occasional Sunday lunch, but not that regularly,’ he said.

‘Since her grandmother died, she comes very rarely to check on the property, but it hasn’t been rented out – it’s been empty since her grandmother died. I think Cristina wanted to live closer to the centre than here.’

Mr Lovasz said that Cristina’s late grandfather, Borbala’s husband, a doctor a director of one of Budapest’s biggest hospitals, the Peterfy Sandor Utca.

🚨JUST IN: FCC Commissioner @BrendanCarrFCC slams Vice President Kamala Harris's $42 billion broadband initiative, saying it hasn't connected a single person to the internet in 3 years.

"In 2021, VP Harris agreed to lead a $42 billion effort to expand internet access to millions. It's been 1,039 days, and no one has been connected—no homes, no businesses, not even a shovel in the ground."

Carr adds, "It gets worse. No infrastructure will begin until next year at the earliest, and in many cases, not until 2026. This makes it the slowest federal broadband program in recent history."

Carr accuses the administration of focusing on climate change, DEI, and other political goals instead of connecting Americans. He points out that the government revoked a $1,300 per location deal with @Starlink after President Biden targeted @elonmusk , and now the government is spending over $100,000 per location on its own efforts.

"The bottom line: Without major reforms, VP Harris's $42 billion program is wired to fail. It's time to correct course. Get rid of all the extraneous political goals and focus on quickly connecting Americans."

From his collection of KH-11 images, he has deduced that they are on the order of approximately 36 feet (11 meters) long.

"The mirror size seems to change for different generations," Schöfbänker suggests. "The way I measured this was by looking at the diameter of the optical tube assembly.

Usually the tube isn't much larger than the mirror in it," he advised.

So by measuring these sizes Schöfbänker was able to figure out that the oldest current KH-11 (USA 186, generation three), has a rough mirror size of 2.4 meters, some 8 feet. It is known that earlier generations used this size mirror, he said.

For the fourth generation (USA 224, USA 245), the satellite watcher measured a mirror diameter somewhere around 3 meters, roughly 10 feet across.

"I am not sure what mirror size is used in USA 314 because I haven't gotten many good images of it so far," said Schöfbänker.

Another spacecraft that has caught Schöfbänker's attention is an unknown type.

"In July, I managed to get a look at a satellite called 'USA 290' which is suspected of possibly being another KH-11. But my image shows a different kind of design, which doesn't look like a typical KH-11.

My image shows a large, roughly 5 meter long rectangular panel. Another fact that supports my idea is the strange orbit this satellite is in. KH-11s are launched into Sun Synchronous orbits. USA 290 wasn't," observes Schöfbänker.

Sun synchronous orbits make sense for an optical imaging mission like the KH-11, since they pass over an area at the same time every day.

Schöfbänker said there are a few possibilities as to what this panel could be.

A radiator which would work as a cooling system for a possible infrared imaging system is one idea. Or perhaps it's a phased array antenna that could be used for SAR imaging or signal intelligence.

Maybe it's a solar panel, Schöfbänker continued, "although I think it's less likely due to the fact that the panel seems to be fixed on the rest of the structure. So tracking the sun would require moving the entire satellite."

Given his expertise and sky watching gear, are there any worries about spilling the beans on how highly classified spacecraft look and work?

"I don't think that most countries would be too concerned about amateurs like me imaging their spacecraft, since most big countries have their own observatories dedicated to this kind of imaging," Schöfbänker responds.

"And considering how much more budget is available for these, it's safe to say that they have images with magnitudes of better quality than what I can achieve."

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has falsely claimed that her grandfather was a freedom fighter in the Indian independence movement.

The Democratic presidential nominee shared on Sept. 8 a picture of herself in India with her maternal grandfather P.V. Gopalan. She described him as a "retired civil servant who had been part of the movement to win India's independence." Gopalan's daughter Shyamala is the mother of the incumbent vice president.

Harris has previously described Gopalan, a Tamil from the elite Brahmin caste, as "one of the original independence fighters in India." Gopalan purportedly was among the many who pushed back against British rule, which ended in 1946 shortly after the conclusion of World War II.

But news reports in India, quoting official records, have disproved the vice president's claims. In one instance, the Times of India pointed out that Gopalan – born in 1911 – was a diligent civil servant. Harris' uncle and Gopalan's son G. Balachandran even told the outlet that he would have been fired if his father openly advocated ending British rule.

The U.S. vice president also received a strong rebuke on social media. The official X account of the Hindu People's Party wrote that Gopalan worked in the British Imperial Secretariat Service in the 1930s, "a role off-limits to anyone tied to the struggle against British rule." It added that "if anything, he aided colonial exploitation by serving the imperial bureaucracy."

Defense analyst Abhijit Iyer-Mitra meanwhile decried Harris as a "liar" for parroting false claims about her grandfather. He continued: "How could a serving bureaucrat be part of the [Indian] independence movement opposing the same government and violating service rules?"

According to the National Pulse, Harris "has downplayed her Indian heritage in recent years, instead emphasizing the Black identity she inherited from her father." The vice president's father, Stanford University economics professor Donald Harris, is a Jamaican-American of mixed African and European descent.

Harris linked to slavery on her father's side of the family

But on the side of her father, the incumbent vice president reportedly has a notorious slave owner from Ireland as an ancestor. The Gateway Pundit reported on this connection, citing research done by British historian Stephen McCracken.

According to McCracken, Harris' four-times-paternal-great-grandfather, Hamilton Brown, was born in Ireland's County Antrim in 1776. Brown's birth year coincided with America declaring its independence from the British.

Brown relocated to Jamaica, which at the time was a British colony, where he became an ardent slave owner on the sugar plantations that made the fortitude of the island's economy. He opposed the abolition of slavery throughout the British Empire in 1832 and even went back to County Antrim to replace his slaves with workers from his native country.

by Aaron Warner

Details are emerging about the announced Minor Attracted Persons (MAP) a/k/a pedophile meet-up at a Vermont campground located outside of the state capitol in the town of Plainfield.

Washington County Sheriff Marc Poulin told VDC yesterday evening that police will be monitoring the Twinfield School this week with officers and that the reported MAP event has apparently been cancelled.

A town meeting held in Marshfield on September 17 was attended by several dozen community members, with many others attending online. At the regularly-scheduled selectboard meeting, the owner of the Onion River Campground (ORC) in Marshfield read from a prepared statement to address the growing concern first raised in an article posted online stating a MAP (Minor Attracted Persons) Camp was to be clandestinely held there today, September 19.

ORC owner Jacquelyn Reike stated she was unaware of any such meeting until it came to her attention at which point she disavowed it. She stated she would never allow a meeting that could endanger children on her property.

The town moderator then turned to a local police officer who reminded concerned citizens the right of people to meet is protected under the First Amendment of the Constitution, whether or not people disagree with the nature of the meeting. He went on to assure people the department had the safety of the children in mind and if anyone wished to take action they would need to use the proper channels and report on a crime that would need to be investigated by the authorities.

Due to the large number of people in attendance, the moderator explained only a limited number of them would be given the chance to speak at which point several voiced their concerns that pedophiles were in fact looking to hold a meeting at the campground, especially given the location is within eyesight of the Twinfield School, a K-12 public school attended by children from both Plainfield and Marshfield. In speaking with the Marshfield Town Clerk Bobbi Brimblecombe we were informed the jurisdiction of the school is held by the school board and not the town select board.

The meeting in question was posted online as the MAP Camp, a first of its kind, to be held at an undisclosed location in Vermont. Suspicions were raised in an article that was posted to X authored by Alaric the Barbarian. The article explains a user noticed the camp advertised to a “marginalized” group upon further investigation realizing it meant pedophiles. According to the website, the apparent host of the camp a watercolor artist in the Barre area.

Also noted in the article were links to the original website advertising the camp that had been taken down upon outcry raised on X. The internet archive feature was used to obtain the original pages revealing the camp was to be held in Vermont but did not list Onion River as the location. Instead it states the campground is “woman owned” and has a “bathhouse” and “pond” – regarded by some online observers as consistent with Onion River – hence the concern.

On multiple pages of the archived site there are explicit references to pedophiles. Under the “Risks, Rules and Requirements” page one passage reads “expsosure to pedophiles and other weirdos”. Elsewhere it lists as “Common risks with MAP Camp meals – meals made communally by untrained volunteers of disgusting pedophiles”, and under “Common risks with hiking and other outdoor activities – insect bites and stings…tripping because you were distracted by a sexy minor instead of watching where you were going.”

The Onion River Campground was also in the news last year where the body of a thirteen year old boy who was missing was found.

Earth had Saturn-like rings 466 million years ago, new study suggests

Sep 18, 2024

Earth may have sported a Saturn-like ring system 466 million years ago, after it captured and wrecked a passing asteroid, a new study suggests.

The debris ring, which likely lasted tens of millions of years, may have led to global cooling and even contributed to the coldest period on Earth in the past 500 million years.

That's according to a fresh analysis of 21 crater sites around the world that researchers suspect were all created by falling debris from a large asteroid between 488 million and 443 million years ago, an era in Earth's history known as the Ordovician during which our planet witnessed dramatically increased asteroid impacts.

A team led by Andy Tomkins, a professor of planetary science at Monash University in Australia, used computer models of how our planet's tectonic plates moved in the past to map out where the craters were when they first formed over 400 million years ago.

The team found that all the craters had formed on continents that floated within 30 degrees of the equator, suggesting they were created by the falling debris of a single large asteroid that broke up after a near-miss with Earth.

"Under normal circumstances, asteroids hitting Earth can hit at any latitude, at random, as we see in craters on the moon, Mars and Mercury," Tomkins wrote in The Conversation.

"So it's extremely unlikely that all 21 craters from this period would form close to the equator if they were unrelated to one another."

The chain of crater locations all hugging the equator are consistent with a debris ring orbiting Earth, scientists say. That's because such rings typically form above planets' equators, as occurs with those circling Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune.

The chances that these impact sites were created by unrelated, random asteroid strikes is about 1 in 25 million, the new study found.

The researchers estimate that the ring-spawning asteroid would be about 7.7 miles (12.5 kilometers) wide if it were a "rubble pile," or slightly smaller if it were a solid body.

Once it shattered after nearing Earth's vicinity, its fragments would have "jostled around" before settling into a debris ring orbiting Earth's equator, Tomkins said.

"Over millions of years, material from this ring gradually fell to Earth, creating the spike in meteorite impacts observed in the geological record," Tomkins added in a university statement.

"We also see that layers in sedimentary rocks from this period contain extraordinary amounts of meteorite debris."

The team found that this debris, which represented a specific type of meteorite and was found to be abundant in limestone deposits across Europe, Russia and China, had been exposed to a lot less space radiation than meteorites that fall today.

Those deposits also reveal signatures of multiple tsunamis during the Ordovician period, all of which can be best explained by a large, passing asteroid capture-and-break-up scenario, the researchers argue.

The new study is a "new and creative idea that explains some observations," Birger Schmitz of Lund University in Sweden told New Scientist. "But the data are not yet sufficient to say that the Earth indeed had rings."

Searching for a common signature in specific asteroids grains across the newly studied impact craters would help test the hypothesis, Schmitz added.

If Earth did sport a Saturn-like ring around its equator, the ring would have significantly affected our planet's climate, according to the new study.

Because Earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbit around the sun, the ring would have cast a shadow over parts of our planet's surface that may have caused global cooling. But the specifics are still murky, the researchers say.

The researchers speculate that such an event may have contributed to the dramatic cooling of our planet 465 million years ago, which led to the coldest period in the past half a billion years, known as the Hirnantian Ice Age.

"We don't know how the ring would have looked from Earth or how much light it would have cut out or how much debris there would have had to be in the ring to lower the temperature on Earth," Tomkins told New Scientist.

This research is described in a paper published Monday (Sept. 16) in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters.

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has criticized the Secret Service and Department of Homeland Security for their "lack of cooperation" in the investigation into the assassination attempt on Donald Trump at his Butler, Pennsylvania rally in July. This comes as the agency has faced criticism from both Republicans and Democrats.

According to Fox News, Johnson said, "Things like the autopsy report, you know, the House has it under subpoena. We don't have it." He added, "[The] toxicology report; we don't have any of the trajectory reports. So, where'd the bullets go? We don't even know how they handled the crime scene." Johnson is a ranking member of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations.

The senator pointed out the time that has passed since the July assassination attempt on Trump when Thomas Matthew Crooks fired several shots at the GOP nominee, hitting him in the ear as well as killing Corey Comperatore and critically injuring two others in the crowd. "There's just basic information we should have right now, and we don't have it," Johnson said. "We haven't been able to interview the sniper who took out [Thomas] Crooks."

The harsh words from Johnson come as Democrats and Republicans alike have accused the Biden-Harris administration's agencies of "stonewalling" Congress in its investigation into the assassination attempt. Johnson said that the sniper who took out Crooks was the first person he wanted to interview about the incident.

The Wisconsin senator added that the FBI has not provided them with FD-302 forms, which are used to investigate the results of interviews. FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate told Johnson in a July hearing that those investigating the assassination attempt would get the forms as soon as possible, but it has been over two months. "They've done 1,000 interviews. We've done 12," Johnson told reporters.

The powerful chairman of the House committee that oversees election integrity is asking five states to open investigations into “potential criminal activity” in the routing of hundreds of millions of dollars in political donations to Kamala Harris and other Democrats through the fundraising platform known as ActBlue.

House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil, R-Wis., made five referrals on Wednesday evening to Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, saying a massive computer analysis conducted by his committee uncovered a suspicious pattern of donations from individuals with net worths too small to donate what has been credited to them via ActBlue reports to the Federal Election Commission.

“This investigation focused on potential unlawful exploitation of unwitting ‘straw donors,’ whose identities may have been used to channel illicit funds into campaigns in your state,” Steil wrote the top law enforcement officials in the five states.

“The final analysis produced a set of anomalous donor profiles, ranked by the severity of the inconsistencies. In reviewing this analysis, it became clear there is suspicious activity occurring that warrants further review,” he added.

"Straw donors" are donors who are either given money by others to donate to federal candidates or whose identity is misused by others to make donations to evade federal campaign contribution limits.

Blacksky wins contract to gather imagery of space objects

September 19, 2024

BlackSky Technology announced “a seven-figure” contract Sept. 19 from Australian startup HEO to provide imagery of space objects for defense, intelligence and commercial use.

Through the agreement, BlackSky, a firm known for rapid and automated Earth-observation, will join HEO’s non-Earth imaging sensor network.

“Leveraging the power of real-time dynamic monitoring in the space domain unlocks additional value from BlackSky’s high-resolution constellation,” BlackSky CEO Brian O’Toole said in a statement.

“Space situational awareness is critically important for our customers as the space domain continues to become a highly contested operational environment.

Automatically tasking and receiving NEI products reflects yet another pioneering innovation that gives customers reliable and actionable space-based intelligence about spacecraft or on-orbit objects of interest at mission speed.”

Specifically, BlackSky will share with HEO high-resolution imagery of mid-inclination orbit.

“Activating [non-Earth imaging] capabilities gives BlackSky the ability to leverage unused capacity typically associated with satellites passing over the ocean or satellites in eclipse, traveling across the dark side of Earth,” according to the news release.

Prior to releasing the news, BlackSky and HEO worked together to test the non-Earth imaging partnership.

Now, the firms are focused on “automating the entire tasking-to-delivery process,” the news release said.

“HEO is driving innovation in space by delivering non-Earth imaging solutions at scale, giving our customers in-orbit insights when timing is crucial,” Will Crowe, HEO co-founder and CEO, said in a statement.

“Adding BlackSky’s high-resolution constellation to HEO’s sensor network through this partnership will unlock even more applications of NEI data across industries.”

Going forward, HEO customers will request non-Earth imagery through an automated tasking and delivery platform, HEO Inspect.

Then, HEO’s software will identify imaging opportunities and task BlackSky satellites through an API. Imagery captured will be transferred along with metadata to HEO Inspect for object detection and identification.

Customers will receive “advanced analytics reports that include information such as a satellite’s attitude and location, subsystems identification and pattern-of-life analyses,” the news release said.

India approves moon sample return, Venus orbiter, space station module and reusable launcher

September 18, 2024

The Indian government has given approval to a number of major space projects including the Chandrayaan-4 lunar sample return and a first space station module.

The union cabinet, chaired by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, approved the Chandrayaan-4 moon sample return mission Sept. 18.

The ambitious project will use two LVM 3 rockets. These will separately launch spacecraft stacks comprising propulsion, lander and ascender modules, and transfer and reentry modules respectively.

The mission has been granted a budget of around 21 billion rupees ($253 million).

The mission’s complexity will provide foundational technologies and capabilities for India’s goal of landing its astronauts on the moon by 2040.

This includes ascent from the lunar surface, docking and undocking in lunar orbit, and safe return and reentry to Earth to deliver samples.

“The mission would enable India to be self-sufficient in critical foundational technologies for manned missions, lunar sample return and scientific analysis of lunar samples.

Towards realization there would be a significant involvement of Indian Industry,” a government statement read.

The approval follows the successful Chandrayaan-3 lander in 2023 which made India then the fourth country to land on the moon.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is still seeking approval for a joint lunar south pole landing with Japan.

Known as the Lunar Polar Exploration Mission (LUPEX), it is now designated as Chandrayaan-5 in India.

India will also have Venus in its sights with approval of the Venus Orbiter Mission (VOM). A cabinet statement indicated that ISRO will develop and launch the spacecraft, with the mission targeted for launch in March 2028.

Science goals include studying Venus’s atmosphere, geology, and evolution, offering insights into how planetary environments can diverge significantly from Earth’s.

Venus is of keen interest, in part through the possible presence of potential biomarker phosphine.

The mission’s budget is approximately 12.36 billion rupees ($149 million), with 8.2 billion rupees ($99 million) allocated for spacecraft development.

A cabinet statement indicated that the mission would once again involve extensive collaboration with the Indian industry and academic institutions, generating employment and technology benefits for various sectors.

The cabinet also expanded the scope and budget of the Gaganyaan human spaceflight program Sept. 18 with approval of the first Bharatiya Antariksh Station (BAS-1) module.

Gaganyaan was approved in 2018 with the goal of India developing independent human spaceflight capabilities.

“Now the human spaceflight program of technology development and demonstration is through eight missions to be completed by December 2028 by launching [the] first unit of BAS-1,” a statement read.

“To achieve this goal, ISRO will undertake four missions under [the] ongoing Gaganyaan Programme by 2026 and development of [the] first module of BAS and four missions for demonstration and validation of various technologies for BAS by December, 2028.”

The Gaganyaan budget was expanded by 111 billion rupees ($1.35 billion) to 201 billion rupees ($432 million) to accommodate the expansion.

The Modi government also approved the development of the Next Generation Launch Vehicle (NGLV).

This is noted as a significant step towards India’s vision of establishing the Bharatiya Antariksh Station and enabling crewed lunar landings by 2040.

The NGLV is designed to carry three times the payload of the current LVM3 at 1.5 times the cost, according to a government statement.

It will feature reusable components and modular green propulsion systems, providing a low-cost and efficient means of accessing space.

The project has been allocated 82.4 billion rupees ($994 million). Its development phase will include three test flights over eight years.

The NGLV will enhance India’s capabilities for various space missions, including human spaceflight, lunar exploration, and satellite deployments, significantly boosting the country’s space ecosystem, according to the government statement.

As a whole, the developments represent a significant investment of resources into India’s space sector and an expansion of ambitions, with diverse targets including lunar and planetary exploration, launch and human spaceflight.

China launches final pair of backup Beidou satellites

September 19, 2024

China launched the last pair of backup satellites for its Beidou navigation system late Wednesday, with an eye on a future, upgraded system.

A Long March 3B rocket equipped with a Yuanzheng-1 upper stage lifted off from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center at 9:14 p.m. Eastern Sept. 18 (0114 UTC Sept. 19).

Two backup Beidou positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) satellites were successfully inserted into medium Earth orbits (MEO).

These satellites are the 59th and 60th launched for China’s Beidou global navigation satellite system (GNSS).

The new satellites were provided by the Innovation Academy for Microsatellites under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IAMCAS). The China Academy of Space Technology (CAST) has also developed and manufactured Beidou satellites.

The new pair will join existing Beidou MEO orbital planes as backups. This will allow maintenance and management of satellites while maintaining full operation of the system.

Additionally, the pair will conduct experiments for the future Beidou-4 next-generation navigation satellite technology.

They feature improvements over earlier Beidou satellites in areas including autonomous integrity monitoring and atomic clock technology.

“The two satellites represent the final group of Beidou-3, serving as a bridge between the current and future generations.

Aside from fulfilling their routine tasks as satellites of the constellation, they will also be engaged in technical validation and exploration projects,” Liu Yingchun, chief designer of the Beidou-3 system, told CCTV.

Beidou-3 refers to the global phase of the three-step Beidou program, which began with Beidou-1 and Beidou-2 satellites providing regional positioning services.

The system has 24 satellites in MEO, with eight in each plane, excluding backups.

Additionally there are three Beidou satellites in inclined geosynchronous orbits and three satellites in geostationary orbits.

Beidou is used for both military and civilian purposes.

Beidou-4 refers to a planned upgrade. China aims to build a more ubiquitous, integrated and intelligent comprehensive PNT system by 2035.

Though details are few, Beidou-4 will be designed to address technical challenges such as weak satellite navigation signals and interference, and aim to support underwater, indoor and deep space navigation.

Beidou and its supporting ground infrastructure is considered to provide the most accessible and accurate PNT data of any operating GNSS constellation in some regions, including the U.S. Global Positioning System (GPS), according to a Belfer Center report.

Meanwhile, a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report earlier this month reveals that the U.S. Space Force is facing technical hurdles in developing its next-generation GPS satellites and ground systems.

The launch was China’s 41st of 2024. It comes after a two-week break in Chinese launch activities following a Long March 6 launch Sept. 5 which sent 10 Geely satellites into orbit for the carmaker’s “Future Mobility Constellation.”

Main state contractor CASC stated early this year that it targeted launching around 70 times across 2024. A further 30 launches were planned by commercial actors, however only six have so far been conducted.

Kuaizhou-1A (Expace) and Lijian-1 (CAS Space) solid rocket launches are expected within the next week, along with more Long March launches.

The debut of the new Long March 12 launcher is expected from a new commercial pad is expected in the near future.

The area was hit by Typhoon Yagi in early September, affecting launch infrastructure.

Tiny nuclear-powered battery could work for decades in space or at sea

18 September 2024

A nuclear battery powered by radioactive decay rather than chemical reactions could last for decades.

The most efficient design yet may bring this concept closer to reality.

Researchers have wanted to use radioactive atoms to build exceptionally long-lasting and damage-resistant batteries since the 1900s.

While some prototypes have been assembled and even used in space missions, they were not very efficient. Now Shuao Wang at Soochow University in China and his colleagues have improved the efficiency of a nuclear battery design by a factor of 8000.

They started with a small sample of the element americium, which is usually considered to be nuclear waste. It radiates energy in the form of alpha particles, which carry lots of energy but quickly lose it to their surroundings.

So the researchers embedded americium into a polymer crystal that converted this energy into a sustained and stable green glow.

Then they combined the glowing americium-doped crystal with a thin photovoltaic cell, a device that converts light to electricity.

Finally, they packaged the tiny nuclear battery into a millimetre-sized quartz cell.

Over 200 hours of testing, Wang says, the device produced a stable supply of electricity at a relatively high energy with unprecedented efficiency – and it only needed minimal amounts of radioactive material to function.

Although americium has a half-life of 7380 years, the nuclear battery should run for several decades, because the components surrounding the sample will eventually be destroyed by the radiation.

Michael Spencer at Morgan State University in Maryland says the new battery has “much improved overall conversion efficiencies and output power” compared to past designs.

However, it still produces much less power than conventional devices. It would take 40 billion of them to power a 60-watt light bulb, for instance.

The researchers are already working on improving their design’s efficiency and power output.

They also want to make it easier and safer to use, since it contains possibly dangerous radioactive materials.

“Ideally, we envision our micronuclear battery being used to power miniature sensors in remote or challenging environments where traditional power sources are impractical, like deep-sea exploration, space missions or remote monitoring stations,” says Wang.

Israel Unleashes Heavy Strikes On South Lebanon After War Plans Approved

Israel's military has just announced that IDF chief Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi has "approved operational plans as part of the continuation of the war" in Israel's north against Lebanon's Hezbollah. Exchanges of fire grew overnight and as of Thursday afternoon heavier airstrikes on southern Lebanon have been reported, as well as more than 40 rockets fired from Lebanon into Israel.

Local Hebrew media says several Israelis have been wounded after a missile fired by Hezbollah hit a vehicle in northern Israel. Israel says the goal of the new escalated anti-Hezbollah operation is to allow the return of the 80,000 residents of the north who have been forced out of their homes for almost a year. "At least eight people in Israel were wounded Thursday in an anti-tank guided missile attack on the Lebanon border that was claimed by the Hezbollah terror group, while others were injured in a subsequent drone strike," Times of Israel reports.

Dem Rep. Dan Goldman Declares Trump ‘Will Execute a Coup’ on January 6th, 2025

Democratic Congressman Dan Goldman has claimed that Donald Trump is planning to “execute a coup” on January 6th next year.

In a fundraising plea sent via ActBlue, Goldman suggested that Trump will task Speaker of the House Mike Johnson to “execute a coup” on his behalf:

Dan Goldman here with an important update on Donald Trump and New York. In just a few hours, Trump will hold a rally on Long Island in a critical battleground district. Trump knows his campaign can’t win New York. But he also knows that the path to the House majority runs straight through New York.

Why does he care? Because he wants Mike Johnson – the architect of the 2020 effort to overturn the election – to be Speaker of the House on January 6, 2025 in order to execute a coup when he loses.

We cannot let that happen. Will you rush a contribution to help make sure we flip the House so that Hakeem Jeffries will be the Speaker on January 6?

His comments come just days after the second assassination attempt against Trump by another left-wing lunatic, while Democrats continue to deny that their wild rhetoric about the presidential frontrunner is stoking violence against him...

Rep. Matt Gaetz Claims There Are 5 Known Assassination Teams in U.S.

“Tragic. Avoidable,” Gaetz said when asked for his thoughts on the second assassination attempt against the former president.

“I am starting to get the impression that we do not have enough force protection of supporting President Trump that we ought to have, given the threat environment,” he said, noting that he recently met with a senior official in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) who said that there are at least five known assassination teams in the United States, “at least three of which are foreign that are out to kill Trump.”

“And, with that type of activity, I don’t think we should be allowing people to set up for an extended period of time and wait to take their shot outside of his golf properties or his other properties,” Gaetz said, expressing concern that the second suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, was previously known to officials, encountered at the border upon his return to the country from Ukraine.

EXCLUSIVE: New Docs Shed Light On Air Force’s ‘Goal’ To Reduce ‘White Male Population’ Joining Officer Ranks

JAKE SMITHCONTRIBUTOR September 19, 202410:01 AM ET1/2

The Air Force finally handed over a trove of documents pertaining to its sweeping “goal” of reducing the number of white male applicants in a popular officer program after spending months stonewalling requests for their release

.

Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman C.Q. Brown — at the time the highest-ranking member of the Air Force — issued a memorandum in2022 that the branch was updating its racial and gender demographic goals for applicants seeking to become officers, in a bid to prioritize “diversity and inclusion.”Internal documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation include a slideshow from 2022 where the Air Force outlines racial and gender quotas and details how it hopes to “achieve” a reduced number of white males in its Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) officer’s applicant program.

The documents reflect the Biden-Harris Pentagon’s intense focus on implementing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the armed forces, even as the military continues to combat dwindling morale among its rank-and-file, recruiting and retention shortfalls and low pay.

“The American people are rightly concerned that, at a time when our country is facing dangerous and increasing threats throughout the world, the Air Force is focused on recruitment efforts based on arbitrary racial diversity goals — not merit or increasing the force’s lethality,” James Fitzpatrick, director of the Center To Advance Security In America (CASA), told the DCNF.

CASA requested records regarding the Air Force’s new officer applicant standards through a federal transparency request, called a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in 2023. At the time, the Air Force said it couldn’t find any records, according to a letter obtained by the DCNF.CASA then sued the Air Force for the records in April 2024 and received hundreds of documents and slides in response, which the DCNF subsequently obtained.

A spokesperson for the Air Force told the DCNF “The FOIA request was being processed at multiple levels within the Air Force.”“One of the units responded to the FOIA request with a ‘no responsive records’ responseafter conducting their own local search, while the remainder of the units continued to process the responsive documents that were ultimately provided,” the spokesperson told the DCNF.

One of the slides in question, labeled “AFROTC White,” depicts a graph that shows the percentage of white male ROTC officer applicants declining from approximately 60% in fiscal year 2019 to a projected 50% in fiscal year 2023. The graph further details how the Air Force’s goal is to reduce that percentage down to approximately 43% by fiscal year 2029, denoted by a star with the label “achieve(d) goal.”

“White male population will decline as other demographics increase,” the slide reads.

A screenshot of an internal Air Force slide deck titled “Officer Accession Applicant Pool Goals Diversity & Inclusion Outreach Plans” from January 2022.

The respective slides in question also explain that the Air Force is either on track or needs to do more to hit racial and gender quotas in the ROTC’s officer applicant pool.

For example, with the African American population, theslideshow suggests the Air Force “target [the] male population through ongoing programs and marketing” and notes it has already met its “female goal” for ROTC officer applicants. For the American Indian, Asian and Hispanic applicants, the slideshow says the Air Force is “on track to grow diversity.”

George Webb also thinks something is planned for Jan 6, 2025. Goldman could be SETTING THE STAGE for what Webb calls a "slaughter pen" scenario, in which massive numbers of (patriot) civilians could be taken out on J6 using a fake insurrection as an excuse, just as in Ukraine 2014.

Described in his "slaughter pen" series

https://georgewebb.substack.com/p/american-slaughter-pen-part-one

not always a fan of Webb, but his hypothesis is worth considering, here's the first article in this series.

American Slaughter Pen - Part One

Trump Assassination Opened Floodgates For Snipers Unleashed On Crowds

George Webb

Sep 08, 2024

In the months leading up to January 6th, 2021, I reported extensively about 4th Psychological Operations from Ft. Bragg, North Carolina, loading buses of unsuspecting, non-violent spectators into sponsored buses along the East Coast of the United States for “slaughter pen operations.”

The idea behind “slaughter pen operations’ was that the 4th Psych Ops operators could corral the bused spectators to the Capitol to be mixed in with “Orange Hat” Proud Boys “Insurrectionists” to label the entire group as “Insurrectionists.”

Butler, PA, changed the American Psyche to accept multiple sniper teams surrounding them from elevated positions, many of which were concealed locations from recessed windows.

Antifa returning home from Ukraine and Syria also could be used for “slaughter pen operations”.

Then, after the “Orange Hat” provocateurs melted away to safety, Ukrainian snipers could start picking off leaders in the crowds to create mass mayhem and death. This “slaughter pen” scenario did not come to pass. The Ukrainian snipers were undoubtedly there, but they were not given the order to commence “slaughter pen operations,” murdering unarmed leadership figures in the crowd.

Our live call at the Capitol Gates on January 6th about the Proud Boys Psychological operators being used to “get the Insurrection started” was confirmed a few days later by the Washington Post. The part that didn’t happen was the sniper fire on innocent civilians. All that changed in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13th, 2024.

The sniper teams most commentators in Butler, PA, think of as “GOOD” will be exactly the same sniper teams turned against the American people in the coming months.Butler, Pennsylvania, was the American Slaughter Pen; we don’t know it yet.

The “Crooks Assassination” has now conditioned the American people to have multiple sniper teams perched over them in a fish bowl, slaughter pen configuration, and that is according to plan……..

The key finding here is the sniper teams are not there to protect you; they are there to slaughter you.The fences we saw in Butler will be the fences to pen you in for the slaughter. …. It sounds like non-sanctioned, military-grade snipers being inserted into civil situations to effectuate assassinations. One difference is that the snipers are not trained for a Cuba Coup. They are being trained to kill you.

I have long maintained the “Deplorables” sniper campaign was run by Clinton Foundation operative Paul Whelan. We now find his relative,Thomas J Whelan, who ran a CIA sniper training program in Vietnam under the Phoenix program for General Dynamics that was cut in October of 1963 by President John F. Kennedy with NSAM 263.

Part 5 of the series is, "Biden Gives Green Light To Snipers At J6, 2025 – Fire At Will."

“These documents show us that the Air Force has taken steps toward implementing their new directive of specific racial quotas for officer recruitment and enrollment throughout the branch,” Fitzpatrick told the DCNF.

Included in the slide deck are funding requests for diversity recruiting initiatives, including $500,000 for “diversity advertising campaigns” and $250,000 for “influencer engagements.”

In a separate set of documents from as early as 2022, the Air Force outlines its efforts to modify ROTC scholarship programs, which “play an important role in accession and diversity goals.”The Air Force suggests modifying the scholarship models could remove certain “testing barriers” to entry for under-represented groups.

A screenshot of an internal Air Force slide deck titled “Officer Accession Applicant Pool Goals Diversity & Inclusion Outreach Plans” from January 2022.

The diversity plans extend to theAir Force’s Aim High Flight Academy (AHFA), an aviation scholarship program for high school, ROTCand Air Force Academy students, according to the documents.The Air Force notes that the AFHA applicant pool should be made up of a “minimum” of 60% underrepresented groups, further noting that it must be at least 35% minorities.

Like other branches of the military, the Air Force has struggled to keep up with recruiting and retention targets in recent years.The Navy is expected to miss its recruiting goals in 2024; the Marine Corps, Army and Air Force are on track to meet their goals, although the latter two branches missed their targets in 2022 and 2023, according to Military Times.

Only approximately 57% of servicemembers or military families polled by the Military Family Advisory Network in 2023 said they’d recommend joining the service, compared to 74% in 2019. Among some of the reasons the respondents wouldn’t recommend service were the politically charged nature of the military, differences and divisions, and low pay, among others.

A year-long study from the Arizona State University Center for American Institutions found that the Pentagon has turned into a “vast DEI bureaucracy” in the last four decades, a challenge that has been exacerbated by the Biden-Harris administration.

“It’s no surprise that young people are turning away from military service in record numbers… DEI indoctrination has become a core component of military trainingthat begins for officers even at the service academies,” Matt Lohmeier, former Space Force commander, said in a statement in June.

American Slaughter Pen - Part Five

Biden Gives Green Light To Snipers At J6, 2025

George Webb - Sep 15, 2024

After watching the trailer for=Peter Strzok and Alex Vindman’s new movie, War Zone=, you didn’t have to be a genius to surmise that the intent of the movie was to preposition snipers in advance of another potential J6 in America....

Excerpts:

Peter Strzok’s DocuPsyOp lays out what will happen on January 6th, 2025, in detail, complete with authorization for the actor who plays the President to use deadly force in the Situation Room at the White House. Now, real life has imitated DocuPsyOp with Joe Biden authorizing the use of lethal force on civilians between now and J6, 2025.....

As I stated before, this was not hard to predict after watching Strzok and Vindman’s “War Game.” What is troubling is that despite all our warnings about J6, many Americans still walked into the trap set for them at the Capitol.

This coming J6 will be much darker than the last. It won’t just be ruined lives this time around. This time it will be sniper fire from foreign operatives recruited by Paul Whelan and other sniper recruiters in a similar role....

FBI Raids Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing Headquarters in Indiana

by Jim Hᴏft Sep. 19, 2024 1:20 pm

The FBI conducted a raid on the Rahal Letterman Lanigan (RLL) Racing headquarters in Zionsville, Indiana, early Wednesday morning.

The renowned facility, owned by former Indy 500 champion Bobby Rahal, television icon David Letterman, and entrepreneur Mike Lanigan, became the center of an active federal investigation.

Federal agents, in coordination with Zionsville police, arrived at the state-of-the-art 100,000-square-foot facility located at 10771 Creek Way.

Kurt Darling of 93 WIBC Indianapolis reported that the FBI instructed all employees to cease activity on their electronic devices, gather their belongings, and leave the premises.

The nature of the investigation remains unclear, with no arrests made and authorities assuring the public there is no immediate threat.

Zionsville Mayor John Stehr disclosed that the FBI had requested assistance from local police during the operation but refrained from divulging specific details about the investigation, according to Fox 59.

Police stated that they were not provided with any details regarding the operation and were only tasked with providing external security for the building.

“The FBI asked us to assist this morning as they served a warrant at the (Rahal Letterman Lanigan) headquarters building,” Stehr said.

“Our officers stayed outside as the FBI agents entered the building.”

Kathi Lauterbach, vice president of communications for RLL Racing, issued a statement confirming the team’s full cooperation with investigators but emphasized that due to the ongoing nature of the investigation, they are limited in what they can disclose.

“We are cooperating fully with investigators. Given that this is an ongoing investigation, we are limited in what information we can share right now, but we intend to provide additional information as soon as we can,” Lauterbach said.

At this time, insufficient information has been made available.

Israel’s Explosive Electronic Warfare: Genocidal Pariah Nation Is A Terrorist Organization

What the world is witnessing this week through Israel’s terrorist crime network operating as a national government, is a new form of terrorism, utilizing weaponized electronics technologies specifically targeting Hezbollah fighters. Just after 3:30PM on Tuesday September 17th, Israel marked the first wave of its newly emerging terrorist technology warfare, detonating hidden installed explosives inside pagers against unsuspecting Lebanese people, loosely affiliated with the Hezbollah military organization. By remote control, Israel simultaneously exploded thousands of electronic pagers, killing at least a dozen including two children and injuring close to 3,000 others across the nation that shares the Jewish State’s northern border. The very next day on Wednesday, Israel was at it again, cold-bloodedly murdering 25 and maiming 450 more Lebanese with hand held radios and walkie talkies, reportedly attacking with yet another round of detonated lethal explosives, killing and wounding many more Lebanese civilians. Though Israel attempted to assassinate Hezbollah members, only 8 of the fatalities were reportedly Hezbollah fighters, and by far most of the dead and injured were innocent Lebanese, including four murdered children. And it wasn’t just pagers and walkie talkies that exploded, according to the September 19th jewishpress.com:

Solar energy systems in private homes, iPhones, laptops and other “smart” devices also exploded in multiple neighborhoods of Beirut and cities in southern Lebanon. Mobile phone shops, street cafes, motorcycles and vehicles equipped with upscale electronics likewise blew up.

A Wednesday September 18th New York Times article entitled “How Israel Built a Modern-Day Trojan Horse: Exploding Pagers,” reports information gleaned from twelve anonymous current and former US defense and intelligence officials allegedly briefed on the terrorist attack admitting:

Israel was behind it.

Of course, subversive crimes are Israel’s M.O. and forte. The NYT further points out:

In 2020, for example, Israel assassinated Iran’s top nuclear scientist using an AI-assisted robot controlled remotely via satellite. Israel has also used hacking to stymie Iranian nuclear development.

For a number of years, Israe has been using GPR cellphone satellite technology to pinpoint the locations of dozens of Islamic resistance leaders for assassination, top commanders in Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, with countless airstrikes in Iran, Lebanon, Gaza, Syria, Iraq. Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah realized Israel had gained hi-tech advantage with its ruthless enemy assassination campaign, and during a televised speech in February, Nasrallah astutely specified:

You ask me where is the agent. I tell you that the phone in your hands, in your wife’s hands, and in your children’s hands is the agent. Bury it. Put it in an iron box and lock it.

FCC Commissioner Slams Kamala Harris’s $42 Billion Broadband Initiative: ‘Not One Person, Home, or Business Connected in 3 Years!’

Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr slams Kamala Harris’s $42 billion broadband initiative, calling it a colossal failure in a scathing testimony before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee on Thursday.

Carr, the senior Republican on the Federal Communications Commission, didn’t hold back, accusing the regime of prioritizing political agendas over practical solutions for millions of Americans still lacking access to high-speed internet.

“It’s been 1,039 days since Vice President Harris agreed to spearhead this massive program, yet not a single person has been connected to the internet. Not one home. Not one business. Not even a shovel has hit the ground,” Carr declared in his opening statement.

“It gets worse—no infrastructure builds will even start until sometime next year at the earliest, and in many cases, not until 2026. This makes Vice President Harris’s $42 billion initiative the slowest-moving federal broadband deployment program in recent history.”

The program, known as BEED (Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment), was designed to extend internet access to millions of Americans in rural and underserved communities.

But according to Carr, the initiative has been bogged down by bureaucratic mismanagement and a focus on advancing a “wish list of progressive policy goals” rather than delivering on its core mission.

“The $42 billion program led by Vice President Harris is being used to push a climate change agenda, DEI requirements, price controls, preferences for government-run networks, and rules that will lead to wasteful overbuilding. All of this will leave rural communities behind,” he said.

The FCC commissioner pointed to the Biden administration’s broader failure to support rural America, citing the revocation of Starlink’s commitment to provide internet to over 640,000 homes and businesses.

“Frankly, it would not be the only time the Biden-Harris administration has left rural America behind. In 2020, the SEC secured a commitment from Starlink to provide Internet to 640,000 homes and businesses for about $1,300 per location in federal support.”

“But the government revoked that award last year after President Biden gave agencies the green light to go after Musk. The administration is now spending dollars on the penny to connect locations through its own initiatives. Senator Cruz released a report identifying entire projects where the administration is now spending over $100,000 per location for Internet.”

The hearing served as a stark indictment of Vice President Harris’s leadership on the issue, with Carr calling for a complete overhaul of the broadband initiative.

“Absent major reforms, Vice President Harris’s $42 billion program is wired to fail. It’s time to correct course, get rid of all the extraneous political goals, and focus on quickly connecting Americans,” Carr concluded.

Ryan Routh Married His Wife Kathleen Shaffer After Divorcing Lora Wilson

ByAlisha Shrestha

September 16, 2024

Ryan Routh Wife

Several names have appeared as Ryan Wesley Routh’s wife, including Lora Wilson Routh and Kathleen Shaffer.

Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was taken into custody on Sunday for allegedly pointing a firearm at former President Donald Trump at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.

Highlights

Ryan Wesley Routh’s home in Kaawa, bought in 2017, is listed under his wife’s name, Kathleen Shaffer.

Shaffer also set up a GoFundMe to help him go to Ukraine, where he stayed for over six months.

Before Shaffer, he was married to Lora in 1989.

Over 20 years ago, he was also detained after a lengthy standoff with police at a Greensboro business.

Routh has a background of supporting progressive causes online and has contributed to 19 Democratic candidates since 2019.

The background checks have found that Ryan Routh’s voter registration record in North Carolina shows he wasn’t officially aligned with any political party.

However, his recent actions indicate he wasn’t planning to vote for the Republicans.

Ryan Routh’s Wife, Kathleen Shaffer, Was An Editor Of His Published Book

Facebook has removed all of Ryan Routh’s pages, profiles, and posts from the platform.

Before Ryan Routh’s Facebook pages were deleted, it was found that his home in Kaawa, bought in 2017, is listed under his wife, Kathleen Shaffer’s name.

From 2017 to 2019, they applied for several permits, including one for an inground pool, which is very expensive to build in Hawaii.

She also set up a GoFundMe to help him go to Ukraine, where he stayed for over six months.

She also worked as an editor for Ryan Routh’s book Ukraine’s Unwinnable War: The Fatal Flaw of Democracy, World Abandonment, and the Global Citizen—Taiwan, Afghanistan, North Korea, and the End of Humanity.

At the same time, some found the information on public websites by checking Ryan’s aliases.

They matched Lora’s name with his address and thought Lora could be his wife, though they were unsure.

RYAN ROUTH: I found all of this information on publicly accessible websites. When I found Ryan and saw the aliases, I was able to cross-reference the alias name Lora with his address. I believe that Lora is his wife. Not sure though. Both addresses matched.

Some people believe that Lora might be his ex-wife, with whom he shares a son named Oran Routh.

Oran mentioned that his father, who was accused of targeting the former president for unclear reasons, was very passionate about the cause of Ukraine.

According to a newspaper article, Lora is his ex-wife, as they married in 1989.

Before their divorce, Ryan Routh and his wife, Lora, were involved in business with Parker H. Washburn.

Then, they transferred ownership of the property at 5311 Bowman Brook Drive in Clay to Mr. Washburn.

Additional information

He began as an Eagle Scout, ran a roofing and construction business, and had a family before divorcing.

He was recognized as a hero for chasing a suspected r*pist, building a skatepark for his son and friends, and fixing up old houses.

The Routh family even made the newspaper for their incredible Halloween decorations.

STARCOM: Development, connection, family readiness key to tomorrow’s Space Force

Sept. 19, 2024

At this week's annual Air, Space and Cyber Conference, sponsored by the Air and Space Forces Association, the command responsible for training and readiness in the U.S. Space Force emphasized Guardian development, connection and family readiness across three key panel discussions.

Brig. Gen. Matthew Cantore, deputy commander of Space Training and Readiness Command, discussed the importance of developing a skilled, adaptable workforce for the U.S. Space Force, highlighting the integration of officers, enlisted, and civilians into a cohesive Guardian family.

One important start to this new initiative is the beginning of the Space Force’s Officer Training Course, which commenced training earlier this month at Peterson Space Force Base.

“We are in the midst of a new start,” Cantore said about the new course for all new Space Force Officers.

“Previously, we would have had separate tracks for space operations, intelligence operations and cyber operations.

Now, as we go forward, we realize that for great power competition, we want to re-baseline and reset what the experience is for all Guardian officers moving forward. As we look to the future and work to establish our culture, we want to have a culture where operations and warfighting is at the core of everything we do.”

Chief Master Sgt. Karmann-Monique Pogue, senior enlisted leader for STARCOM, joined Cantore on the panel and noted that as the enlisted corps grows in rank, responsibilities shift, necessitating a balance between the roles of technical specialists with the roles of leadership and advising senior leaders. Pogue cited the start of Space Force-specific Enlisted Professional Military Education earlier this year at the Vosler Academy at Peterson SFB as another key to the transformation of the Force.

“We have reshaped the experience for our enlisted NCOs and senior NCOs,” Pogue said. “Vosler stood down for about five months to reshape the curriculum, the training, and the experience that our enlisted Guardians are going to be challenged with.

We have to better prepare our enlisted force to not only be technically competent, but to be operationally and strategically relevant as well.”

Cantore and Pogue said that more would be rolled out in the coming months regarding initiatives for civilians and junior enlisted Guardians.

Col. Charlie Norsky, commander of STARCOM’s Space Delta 1, told a separate panel audience focused on family readiness for great power competition that integrating Guardian families goes beyond just understanding the Space Force or unit mission.

“Family readiness is mission readiness,” Norsky said. “We can’t do what we do on the mission side without making sure that we have our families not just on board or understanding, but truly as part of the team.”

Norsky elaborated on closer integration of families within units, taking steps to develop a local initiative that further develops family members.

“We want to formalize this so it’s not just pointing a family member or spouse toward a resource and say ‘go over there for this information,’” Norsky said.

“It’s… come over here, let’s talk about this, let’s work through this together, let us grow. And so this spouse development initiative is something that I think we’re really excited about being able to roll out.”

Secretary Kendall voices concerns to Congress about CR

Sept. 19, 2024

Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall, in a Sept. 18 letter to congressional leaders, itemized the significant challenges a continuing resolution of any length would pose to the Air Force and Space Force.

“A CR of any length impacts DAF readiness, hinders acceleration of the Space Force, delays military construction projects, reduces aircraft availability, and curbs modernization in our race for technological superiority,” Kendall said in his letter to the chairs and ranking members of the House and Senate Appropriations Committees.

“A CR also sets us back in meeting the pacing challenge presented by the People's Republic of China, which continues to invest heavily in capabilities designed to prevent the United States and its allies from projecting power in the Western Pacific,” the letter said.

The two-page letter offers specifics under the headings, Impacts to Personnel & Readiness, Impacts to Modernization, and Impacts to MILCON.

In those sections, Kendall said a temporary spending plan which in Congress is called a “continuing resolution,” degrades the Department’s efforts to improve housing, provide basic pay, meet recruiting goals and retain personnel.

The letter outlines how a CR would prevent the Department from spurring production increases for munition stockpiles and impede development of the B-21 bomber and modernizing the land-based nuclear deterrent, among other impacts to include halting Space Force development on launch and range test system software.

Kendall told the lawmakers that he is especially worried about the impact of a long-term CR.

“In the event of a year-long CR, four Air Force Operational Imperative initiatives would also experience delays, hindering the DAF's ability to close key capability gaps, accelerate development, and assure U.S. advantage against pacing challenges …,” he said.

Despite the concerns, Kendall said the Department was ready to work with Congress on completing work on a full and new budget for fiscal year 2025.

That fiscal year begins Oct. 1. “The DAF greatly values our partnership with Congress and appreciates your commitment to our Airmen and Guardians,” Kendall said.

BREAKING NEWS: Diddy Has Gay Rape Tapes Of Teen Bieber, Have Been Shopped Around Hollywood

Diddy's debauched life of threesomes and unspeakable violence exposed in gory tell-all book from Kim Porter, the dead mother of his sons

A new book accuses Sean 'Diddy' Combs of assaulting his late girlfriend, taping himself having sex with a male teenage popstar, and sex parties with an Oscar winner and his wife.

The 60-page book, Kim's Lost Words, claims to be a collection of the diaries of Kim Porter, the mother of three of his children who died of pneumonia in 2018, leaked by her friends.

It describes Combs's colorful love life from the 1990s through Porter's final year, including alleged philandering with both male and female top musicians and rappers, and debauched orgies at his home, in which Porter took part.

The book was published on September 6, just days before the rapper and Bad Boy Records founder was indicted for racketeering and sex trafficking by federal prosecutors in New York.

In the book, Porter recounts discovering and making copies of tapes Diddy made of himself having sex with 'young boys' he was managing, including an alleged tape involving an 18-year-old popstar who went on to be a household name.

The final entry of the memoir has Porter falling fatefully ill, dramatically texting her friends 'he got me', and then calling 911.

The book's Los Angeles-based publisher, producer Chris Todd, claims Porter shared a thumb drive of her writing with close friends which he obtained and lightly edited into a book under the pseudonym Jamal T Millwood.

The book is marked as being printed in Las Vegas on September 7, 2024.

Todd has not offered any documentary evidence to prove its authenticity – but put hard copies up for sale on Amazon.

'I was lucky enough to meet someone that purported to have Kim Porter's flash drive,' he told DailyMail.com.

'I know the celebrity source pretty well. I know how close they were to Kim and Diddy, and all the people in the hip hop community.

'This was supposedly for Kim Porter from the grave, to come forward and tell her story.'

Porter applied make-up to try to hide the injuries Diddy inflicted on her, but couldn't hide the hideously swollen lips

Todd said he did not originally want to put his name on the book for security reasons.

'This is a dangerous situation, and I didn’t want to claim ownership of Kim’s words. But now I’m willing to come forward because of the recent arrest of Sean Combs.

‘Now the federal government has finally acted, I feel safer to come forward.’

Details of some of the scandals alleged in the book have already been reported. Diddy allegedly took out a gun and started shooting at a nightclub in 1999, then made a rapper on his label, Shyne, take the fall for him.

Combs and then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez were arrested over the incident, but only Shyne was charged – though rumors of Combs's responsibility have swirled ever since.

Other incidents have been flat-out denied by the alleged participants, including star-studded orgies.

'He hosted parties that were just a fancy name of orgies, and everyone wanted in,' the Porter memoir claimed.

'We not only had threesomes, but we also swapped partners. Our sex life was crazy, but I got to do things with Sean I would never have been able to do with a straight man.

She said she was sleeping with a well-known married woman: 'I woke up and left the bedroom where I was,... and Sean happened to be coming out of the bedroom' with a chart-topping rapper – and the woman's husband.'

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

DNA Contamination in mRNA Covid Shots up to 145 Times Regulatory Limit, First Independent Australian Study Shows

Synthetic plasmid DNA contamination has been detected in Australian vials of Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines at levels of between seven and 145 times the allowable limit, a new study shows.

The independent study of three modified RNA (mod-RNA) vaccine vials, including lots for children and adults, was commissioned to provide evidence in a Federal Court lawsuit over the validity of the regulatory status of the vaccines.

The case, brought by legal firm P.J. O’Brien & Associates, alleges that the vaccines contain unlicensed genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in the form of synthetic DNA contamination and mod-RNA-LNP complexes which could pose an untested safety risk, including the potential for DNA integration into the human genome.

In an affidavit provided to legal firm P.J. O’Brien & Associates, molecular virologist Dr. David Speicher said that the amount of synthetic DNA he detected in all three Australian vials “far exceeded” the allowable regulatory limit set by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).

Given scientific evidence suggesting that synthetic DNA can enter the cell nucleus and potentially integrate into the human genome, “it is important to investigate whether integration can take place in primary cells in the vaccinated population”, Dr. Speicher said.

The Australian study confirms independent lab findings of high levels of residual DNA in mod-RNA Covid vaccines from Germany, the U.S. and Canada, highlighting that this is a global concern.

The study

Residual synthetic DNA is a byproduct from the mod-RNA vaccine manufacturing process, and is allowed under TGA regulations in levels of up to 10 nanograms (ng) per vaccine dose, and in fragment sizes of up to 200 base pairs (bp).

The TGA denies that Covid mod-RNA vaccines are contaminated with synthetic DNA above 10ng per dose, but as high levels had been detected in vials from other regions, the legal team behind the GMO case commissioned this study to determine residual synthetic DNA levels in Australian vials.

PJ O’Brien & Associates arranged for shipment of three vials with chain of custody, one Moderna and two Pfizer, to Dr Speicher’s lab at the University of Guelph in Canada. The vials were shipped on dry ice and stored in the lab fridge on arrival. The Pfizer vials had tamper seals intact, while the Moderna vial had been half-used.

Dr. Speicher used two methods to test for residual DNA levels – flourometry and qPCR – each with their own advantages.

qPCR is the method preferred by regulators. It captures lower readings of DNA because it can fail to pick up small fragments of DNA below 200bp and it measures less than 1% of the residual DNA plasmid, with the other 99% being extrapolated mathematically. This means the reading has greater repeatability, but it gives a less complete picture.

A Moderna patent (2014) related to “removal of DNA fragments in [the] mRNA production process” acknowledges that the qPCR method of quantifying residual DNA only detects some target DNA molecules, but “does not measure all other smaller DNA molecules that are partially digested” by the enzyme used to break them down for the filtration process.

Using qPCR, Dr. Speicher detected synthetic DNA up to 15-fold above the TGA’s limit in both Pfizer lots, but the Moderna lot was compliant.

Why Israel hit Hezbollah with a surprise device attack — and here’s what comes next

he Israeli intelligence operation against Hezbollah, which saw thousands of booby-trapped pagers, walkie-talkies and other electronic devices exploding by remote control, will significantly damage the ability of the Lebanese terror group to fight against Israel, experts told The Post.

But the question remains: Why would Israel order the blasts now?

One answer could lie in the north of the Jewish state, where Hezbollah has been launching near-daily airstrikes — starting almost immediately after Hamas’ horrific Oct. 7 attack on Israeli civilians, said Nicolas Carl, research manager for the American Enterprise Institute’s Critical Threats Project.

“Israeli senior political and military leaders have been very clear in this time that they see the security situation along their northern border as unsustainable,” Carl told The Post.

Looking north

As the war on Hamas in Gaza reaches its one-year mark, the Israel Defense Forces aims to push Hamas’ larger, more powerful allied organization in Lebanon away from its northern border, Carl said.

Haitians & Cubans paroled into the USA for more than 1 year are "qualified aliens" to receive Federal Welfare, including Medicaid, Social Security, SSI, SNAP, TANF, & Student Aid.

Haitians & Cubans are specially exempted from the normal 5-year waiting period to get alien welfare that other "qualified aliens" have to satisfy prior to qualifying for these Federal Welfare programs.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

EXCLUSIVE: New Docs Shed Light On Air Force’s ‘Goal’ To Reduce ‘White Male Population’ Joining Officer Ranks

The Air Force finally handed over a trove of documents pertaining to its sweeping “goal” of reducing the number of white male applicants in a popular officer program after spending months stonewalling requests for their release.

Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman C.Q. Brown — at the time the highest-ranking member of the Air Force — issued a memorandum in 2022 that the branch was updating its racial and gender demographic goals for applicants seeking to become officers, in a bid to prioritize “diversity and inclusion.” Internal documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation include a slideshow from 2022 where the Air Force outlines racial and gender quotas and details how it hopes to “achieve” a reduced number of white males in its Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) officer’s applicant program.

The documents reflect the Biden-Harris Pentagon’s intense focus on implementing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the armed forces, even as the military continues to combat dwindling morale among its rank-and-file, recruiting and retention shortfalls and low pay.

“The American people are rightly concerned that, at a time when our country is facing dangerous and increasing threats throughout the world, the Air Force is focused on recruitment efforts based on arbitrary racial diversity goals — not merit or increasing the force’s lethality,” James Fitzpatrick, director of the Center To Advance Security In America (CASA), told the DCNF.

CASA requested records regarding the Air Force’s new officer applicant standards through a federal transparency request, called a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in 2023. At the time, the Air Force said it couldn’t find any records, according to a letter obtained by the DCNF.

CASA then sued the Air Force for the records in April 2024 and received hundreds of documents and slides in response, which the DCNF subsequently obtained.

A spokesperson for the Air Force told the DCNF “The FOIA request was being processed at multiple levels within the Air Force.”

“One of the units responded to the FOIA request with a ‘no responsive records’ response after conducting their own local search, while the remainder of the units continued to process the responsive documents that were ultimately provided,” the spokesperson told the DCNF.

One of the slides in question, labeled “AFROTC White,” depicts a graph that shows the percentage of white male ROTC officer applicants declining from approximately 60% in fiscal year 2019 to a projected 50% in fiscal year 2023. The graph further details how the Air Force’s goal is to reduce that percentage down to approximately 43% by fiscal year 2029, denoted by a star with the label “achieve(d) goal.”

“White male population will decline as other demographics increase,” the slide reads.

The respective slides in question also explain that the Air Force is either on track or needs to do more to hit racial and gender quotas in the ROTC’s officer applicant pool.

For example, with the African American population, the slideshow suggests the Air Force “target [the] male population through ongoing programs and marketing” and notes it has already met its “female goal” for ROTC officer applicants. For the American Indian, Asian and Hispanic applicants, the slideshow says the Air Force is “on track to grow diversity.”

“These documents show us that the Air Force has taken steps toward implementing their new directive of specific racial quotas for officer recruitment and enrollment throughout the branch,” Fitzpatrick told the DCNF.

Included in the slide deck are funding requests for diversity recruiting initiatives, including $500,000 for “diversity advertising campaigns” and $250,000 for “influencer engagements.”

In a separate set of documents from as early as 2022, the Air Force outlines its efforts to modify ROTC scholarship programs, which “play an important role in accession and diversity goals.” The Air Force suggests modifying the scholarship models could remove certain “testing barriers” to entry for under-represented groups.

The diversity plans extend to the Air Force’s Aim High Flight Academy (AHFA), an aviation scholarship program for high school, ROTC and Air Force Academy students, according to the documents. The Air Force notes that the AFHA applicant pool should be made up of a “minimum” of 60% underrepresented groups, further noting that it must be at least 35% minorities.

Like other branches of the military, the Air Force has struggled to keep up with recruiting and retention targets in recent years. The Navy is expected to miss its recruiting goals in 2024; the Marine Corps, Army and Air Force are on on track to meet their goals, although the latter two branches missed their targets in 2022 and 2023, according to Military Times.

Only approximately 57% of servicemembers or military families polled by the Military Family Advisory Network in 2023 said they’d recommend joining the service, compared to 74% in 2019. Among some of the reasons the respondents wouldn’t recommend service were the politically charged nature of the military, differences and divisions, and low pay, among others.

A year-long study from the Arizona State University Center for American Institutions found that the Pentagon has turned into a “vast DEI bureaucracy” in the last four decades, a challenge that has been exacerbated by the Biden-Harris administration.

“It’s no surprise that young people are turning away from military service in record numbers… DEI indoctrination has become a core component of military training that begins for officers even at the service academies,” Matt Lohmeier, former Space Force commander, said in a statement in June.
