@holly___xxx___ @RyanFedasiuk @abcnews Awe, its cute to see civilians trying to understand a military mindset.

Why would China stop this? We’ve essentially put an oil embargo on them. It’s in their own interests if we lose. PLUS the US and Israel have turned Iran into a superpower by giving them control of 20% of the world’s oil (and lifted sanctions!). China should cooperate with Iran if they’re smart. The US is going to be demoted to a regional power and China, India, Russia and Iran will be the new world order. All because of Trump.

The @abcnews is out this morning with a disturbing story: The IRGC is actively making use of detailed satellite imagery and analysis published by MizarVision, a Chinese geospatial analytics company — and has used this data to target American, Australian, and allied forces in the Middle East.
This is a fluid and fast-moving situation and I want to be clear about what we know so far.
1️⃣ It's clear U.S. forces in the Gulf are operating in an environment that is very different from any other they have encountered previously.
Commercial satellite imagery collected by foreign companies is now available at a quality and frequency that is good enough to put U.S. combat forces in harm's way.
This is ultimately why U.S. collection platforms like @vantortech and @planet chose this weekend to suspend their coverage over the Middle East.
Unfortunately, predictably, foreign competitors like MizarVision see no reason to censor their own product offerings.
2️⃣ The implications are grim: ostensibly private Chinese AI companies are directly helping the Iranian regime target U.S. and allied forces in the region.
The ABC has information that the IRGC is striking U.S. facilities "within hours" of MizarVision publishing them.
I told @henryzwartz that this would effectively amount to Iranian forces outsourcing targeting data to a Chinese company: It is "the greatest degree of support we have seen China provide to a proxy force against the United States" — there is really no other way to read it.
3️⃣ If the Chinese government wanted to rein in the actions of MizarVision and other imagery providers, it could. And it should.
Spokespersons from @MFA_China have so far attempted to downplay the significance of this development. I'm willing to buy that Chinese officials haven't been aware of the importance of this particular imagery or the extent of its use by the IRGC — but China should recognize this is an extremely serious development. We're talking about Chinese enterprises directly supplying actionable intelligence to wartime enemies of the United States.
MizarVision has spent weeks zeroing in on U.S. forces and bases in the region and publishing their activities on its Weibo account. It hasn't done the same to Iran. It's very clear what is going on here — and it is unacceptable.
This doesn't have to be a story about China. It's clear the United States is also learning about the battlefield potential of commercial sat imagery in real-time.
Beijing should understand that U.S. concerns at this moment are deadly serious. I expect the U.S. government will do everything in its power to defend its personnel.
China should mirror the U.S. suspension of commercial satellite imagery collection over the Middle East.

Argentina S@nk an Illegal Chinese Ship.
Argentina issued radio warnings asking the CH boat to stop; instead, the CH vessel tried to ram them. Later, the Argentine navy launched a warning shot, but China again ignored & kept fishing illegally. What happened happened for a reason.

@FloridaJ911 @pmcafrica Its the Glass Matte batteries (GCM), the computer tracks the starter count for the Idle Stop feature. Shuts the engine off at a stop then starts once you want to go. Causes premature starter failures too.
English

@centralstaking @pmcafrica They may tell you that but I’ve never experienced it even on luxury cars. In fact, I’ve never even heard of that. Not saying it’s not true but that’s strange if so.
English

@FloridaJ911 @pmcafrica Ppl cant even change their batteries these days on their own if they got auto stop on their vehicle. You gotta plug a computer in and reset the battery or it'll be dead again within a month or 2. Cars are not user friendly anymore. Too many electrical sub systems.
English

@centralstaking @pmcafrica Cool story but I’ve been rebuilding engines and doing all my own work way before the internet was a thing and you would have to buy a mechanic’s book for the jobs.
English

@FBFlink @pmcafrica $75/hr? What decade did you get that pricing from. More like $150 - $250/hr flat rate hour.
English

Repairs are charged on a rate sheet listing time for specific activities. I doubt this specific activity was covered. The amount charge per hour should cover the “skill“ factor. The total amount charge should be the actual time times the rate, typically about 75 an hour. Of course, the time would include bringing the car in, putting it on the lift, ordering the part, etc. Not just the six minutes to actually do the work. Three hours sounds a little excessive, but not totally unreasonable.
English

@FloridaJ911 @pmcafrica And our shop loved ppl like you thinking YouTube would help them out. Ppl literally would bring cars in motor half torn apart due to zero experience, or tools they didnt have to finish the job
English

@pmcafrica Paying a mechanic 3 hours for a 6 minute job is a scam and reading comments here it’s clear people have been brainwashed. Do you pay an attorney 3 hours for 6 minutes worth of work? Do you get paid 3 hours for every 6 minutes of work you do? There is a reason I DIY.
English

@XTopMemes @pmcafrica Alls ya gotta worry bout after is the camshaft jumping teeth on the chain, starting up outta time if it starts at all. Ppl would tow there cars in after these timing chain jobs cuz they didnt wanna pay. We could get them done in 8 - 10 hrs. Some needed new motors after inspection
English

@pmcafrica I bought a $1,000 work car 11 years ago. Timing chain broke last year and destroyed all the guides, shop wanted $3,200
The kit, Oil pan seal, timing cover seal, valve seal, oil change, all the guides, tensioner, chains, crank Bolt, Cam gears ect cost me $430 and 32 hrs work.

A federal judge just ruled that videos of DOGE staffers must stay up — and they are devastating.
Under oath, they couldn't define DEI. They admitted they never reduced the deficit. And they wiped out $100 million in humanities grants — including a Holocaust documentary — using ChatGPT.
The regime tried to bury this. It didn't work.

In case you are all wondering if there is a way for the President and Feds to step in to help us here you go!
If a state's population feels their government has become a "one-party regime" that ignores the will of the people, the U.S. Constitution actually has a specific "emergency brake" for that exact scenario.
Here are the ways the federal government could theoretically "step in" to address a state government that has gone off the rails:
1. The "Guarantee Clause" (Article IV, Section 4)
This is the most powerful—and rarest—tool in the Constitution. It states: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government."
What it means: A "Republican form" means a government where the people are represented and the laws aren't just dictated by a single ruler or a permanent party.
How it works: If it can be proven that Washington State has effectively abolished fair elections or bypassed the people’s ability to change their government, the U.S. Congress or the President could argue that the state is no longer a Republic. This would allow the federal government to intervene to "restore" a constitutional government.
2. Federal Civil Rights Enforcement
If the state’s election methods (like mail-in voting without ID) are proven to "dilute" or "disenfranchise" the votes of legal citizens, the Department of Justice (DOJ) can step in.
The feds can sue the state in federal court, bypass the state’s own judges, and have a federal judge strike down state laws.
If the state refuses to comply, the federal government can send in Federal Election Monitors to oversee the counting of ballots to ensure the state isn't "cooking the books."
3. Federal Preemption of State Law
Under the Supremacy Clause, federal law beats state law.
If Congress passes a National Voter ID Act or a law requiring in-person voting options, Washington’s leaders cannot legally ignore it.
If the Governor tried to ignore a federal law, the President could deploy federal resources (like the U.S. Marshals or even the National Guard) to ensure federal laws are being followed, similar to how the federal government forced states to integrate schools in the 1950s.
4. Congressional Refusal to Seat Members
Congress has the power to judge the elections of its own members.
If the U.S. House or Senate believes Washington’s mail-in system is so fraudulent that the results can't be trusted, they can refuse to seat the representatives or senators sent from Washington.
This effectively strips the state of its power in D.C. until it fixes its election system to meet federal standards.
The "Catch":
The federal government usually hesitates to do this because of "State Sovereignty"—the idea that states should run themselves. However, if a state truly becomes a "mini-communist state" where the people have no path to change their leadership through the ballot box, the Guarantee Clause is the ultimate legal "nuclear option" to force a reset.
Keep writing and contacting the DOJ too!
LET'S ROLL!!!!

China’s $900 Billion Rail Empire Faces Its Most Terrifying Reality Yet
For years, China’s high-speed rail was sold as a symbol of speed, power, and national pride. But behind the 50,000 km network, cracks are starting to show in ways passengers can’t ignore. When trains stall inside tunnels with no power, no ventilation, and no clear rescue plan, the story shifts from innovation to risk.
On March 29, passengers aboard train D3665 were trapped in a pitch-black tunnel for nearly 5 hours. Temperatures rose, oxygen dropped, and people reportedly fainted while children cried in panic. Staff waited for instructions instead of acting, exposing a dangerous gap between system scale and emergency response.
The deeper issue is structural. China’s railway debt has reportedly reached over $850 billion, while only about 5–6% of routes are profitable. Rapid expansion, rushed construction, and maintenance pressure create a system where failure is no longer rare, it’s predictable.
When engineers themselves say they wouldn’t ride these trains, that’s not fear talking. That’s insider warning.

@robmce23Trump45 @ScaryEurope You do when your city, county, state or country are faced with massive budget shortfalls and a worsening global economy. Patriotism found? Nope its purely financially driven.

@ScaryEurope I don't believe him. You don't allow unfettered illegal immigration for years only to "find your patriotism" without a reason. Is there an election coming up or something? Don't believe the liars who ruined your country from the beginning.

🚨🇩🇪GERMANY’S GREAT REVERSAL! 720,000 REFUGEES HEADED HOME!
Chancellor Merz just dropped the biggest migration BOMB in European history! In a shock joint announcement, Germany has declared the "Open Borders" era officially DEAD. A staggering 720,000 Syrians are to be returned in a massive 3-year plan that’s sending shockwaves across the globe!
The "temporary" status is over, and the first deportations are starting IM-MIN-ENT-LY. But the real "earthquake" happened when a secret deal with the Syrian President was revealed...
You WON'T BELIEVE the 200-million-euro "golden handshake" that’s being used to clear the streets!
HUGE IF IT'S TRUE!!

@centralstaking @liberal_jamie @funder You have to be a bot. No human could be this deluded or stupid.

🇺🇸 🇪🇺 Trump can’t just leave NATO - but he can fundamentally weaken it.
There are hard legal restraints that prevent him - specifically the National Defence Authorisation Act.
Section 1250A of the 2024 NDAA blocks it, requiring a 2/3 Senate vote or an Act of Congress.
It even bans funding for any unilateral withdrawal.
But here’s the catch:
NATO doesn’t break when you leave it.
It breaks when you if Trump pulls troops from Europe, stalls decisions, and makes US support conditional.
If Article 5 no longer applies, NATO is effectively meaningless.
And once allies stop believing, adversaries will start pressuring.

@ronsterd89 If a store patches that, they are liable to fix if it leaks again. The patches used which ACTUALLY work must have the inner tire ground down smooth and MUST be flat to properly adhere. The location is too close to the sidewall. The cheap fixes given usually leak again.
English

Tires with 11,000 miles and a nail. Firestone told me they are not repairable. Firestone said this is not repairable because of the location and that I would need a new tire. It's a slow leak, about 1-2 psi a day. I am in disbelief that this is not repairable.. Can I not just get a fix kit? 🤧
