California should not move backward on fairness. Prop 209 set a simple statewide rule against race-based preferences, and ACA-7 weakens that protection. Stand up for equal treatment for every person. Vote NO on ACA-7. https://www.californiafamily. californiafamily.org/2026/02/ca-law… Email your senator to stop ACA-7. @SenatorAshby @seneloisereyes @SenDaveCortese @senator_hurtado @TimGraysonCA #NoACA7 #Stop #ACA7 #Protect209 Use one-click tool to email your senator to oppose ACA-7: erfapac.com/aca7-2026/

@ggreenwald Were any of those 20 damaged by Iranian weapons? Seems like an important question

Air & Space Forces Magazine -- reporting on the "Air Force F-35A pilot [who] suffered shrapnel wounds after their aircraft was damaged" over Iran -- says it's "one of around 20 U.S. Air Force aircraft known to be damaged or destroyed in the nearly three-week-old Iran war."

@johnkonrad To be fair, I've read that no one actually bid to get the $60Billion because there was so much gov't BS required to get the award (have not verified this though) iow, Biden allocated $60B but no one could stomach jumping through hoops

Just imagine if he treated criminal illegal aliens like this? Imagine locking up those people and telling them they won’t be released and will be deported. But no. Larry’s fantasy is locking up American law enforcement agents for doing their jobs as instructed by the President.

Philly DA Larry Krasner threatens ICE agents working at the airport with arrest: "The president cannot pardon you. I will put you in handcuffs. And if necessary, I will put you in a jail cell." Krasner was promising to hunt down ICE agents like Nazis a couple of months ago.

@angertab All the Russian and Ukraine guys are setting up nets over their logistics lines to interrupt drone internet access. We need more jamming

Barksdale Air Force Base - It's Worse Than You Think Monday, 03/09/2026 - Friday, 03/13/2026 A swarm of 12-15 drones penetrated BAFB for 5 consecutive days (4 hours loitering). They halted flight operations, and in one occasion, forced a shelter-in-place order. SIGNIFICANCE BAFB is the launchpad for B-52's that are and were flying combat operations over Iran. BAFB has jamming equipment that was unsuccessful in stopping the drone swarms. The 4-hour loiter time, coupled with the drone swarms ability to resist jamming attempts, is beyond troubling. Additionally, the drones were equipped with lights. Of note, no reports of drones flying over Shreveport were noted. This suggests the drones approached from the remote areas to the southeast of BAFB and turned their lights on once over BAFB. ANALYSIS It is unknown if the drones were fixed-wing or quadcopter. Given the 5 days of repeated intrusions, there is a higher probability that these drones were launched from a remote area. Operators would need to alternate between multiple launch and landing points to avoid detection. A fixed-wing style drone with a hybrid motor operating on liquid fuel and battery is a likely contender. This would place the wing span at about 4-5 meters, advanced cameras for guidance and terrain analysis, and a total 6-hour flight time. That would easily drive the cost of each drone above $60,000 USD each. On the low end, the drones would cost $900,000 in total and could push upwards of $1.5 million. That is not just a couple of kids playing around, that is a sophisticated operation. State actors or well funded terror networks become likely culprits. The drones would require about 50 meters of runway space, something that the remote areas of LA offer in abundance. They would also need a storage location, vehicles to move the drones, and plenty of operators. This suggests an intact, well-funded, and well-trained hostile network near one of America's most strategic Air Force Bases. There is a reason the military and our government have been silent, except for confirmation of the reports.

What is happening to this bloody country!!! My daughter has been informed by school that her TWELVE year old daughter (my granddaughter) has been found on a 'stab list'. So the son of recent African immigrants, who has only been here maybe a year and has been caught at least twice with a knife at school, has now created a list of girls he intends to stab for shunning his advances. He is STILL in school. This madness has to end. Either the establishment are on the side of good people or good people will take things into their own hands. She's 12yo for gods sake and has to now walk around school with the threat of being stabbed at any moment.

Russia launched one of their largest Geran-2 drone attacks ever on Ukraine today. The attack was carried out in two waves. The first consisted of almost 400 drones and took place at the same time as the large-scale missile attack, while the second consisted of at least 550 drones and took place right after the combined missile attack. In total, almost 1,000 drones were used in a day, almost breaking the previous record set in 2025. Targets were hit in most regions of Ukraine, including Poltava Oblast, Kyiv Oblast, Mykolaiv Oblast, Vinnytsia Oblast, Lviv Oblast, Khmelnytskyi Oblast, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Donetsk Oblast, Sumy Oblast, Ternopil Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast, Zhytomyr Oblast, Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, Kharkiv Oblast, Odesa Oblast, and Cherkasy Oblast. The Ukrainian Air Force claims that out of 948 drones launched, Ukrainian air defence shot down 906. The attached image shows which regions of Ukraine came under attack tonight.

Yep! This would sound strange to anyone who got into computing from the year 2000 onward, but we really did spend hours and hours typing in BASIC code from computer magazines. In my case, it was on my Commodore 64. Who else did this?

California does not need another policy that ends up tied up in court. ACA-7 would create serious legal exposure, driving uncertainty, litigation, and taxpayer cost instead of clear, durable rules.

Foods allowed to put "heart healthy" on their packaging: - Breakfast cereals with 12g of sugar per serving - Margarine made from industrial seed oils - Fruit juice with more sugar per 100ml than Coca-Cola - Low-fat yoghurt with added glucose syrup Foods not allowed to put "heart healthy" on their packaging: - Beef - Lamb - Butter - Eggs The first category paid a certification body to display the logo. The second category has been feeding humans without cardiovascular assistance for far longer than cardiovascular disease existed as a documented condition.

American is a healthy 28 year old, he decided to skip paying for health insurance this year because the cheapest plan was $900 per month with a high deductible He had to spend 2 nights in the ER without insurance, he breaks down the bill “This is my receipt from spending 2 days in the hospital: - It totaled about $24,000 - My CT scan alone was $8,300 - Laboratory, 6,000 - IV therapy, $1,020, $4,000 in total And while $24,000 seems like a lot of money, let me show you something. This is what I'm actually paying, $2,478 because when you don't have insurance, these hospitals give you a discount. They discounted $22,000 off of this bill” “But if I had insurance, I wouldn't have gotten that discount. So it would've been a $24,000 bill billed to my insurance, and then my insurance would've said, ‘Hey, you have a $5,000 deductible. You need to pay $5,000 for this last emergency room visit.’ Then you tack on the $900 a month that I'd be paying for that insurance. I'd be paying $20K this year for healthcare. So the craziest part about this is even if I have another hospital visit, by the end of this year, I'm still gonna be paying less than I would if I had insurance. At minimum, my cost for healthcare this year would've been $20,000 with insurance. Right now I'm at $2,400.” US Health Insurance is a scam

Voters have already made their position clear at the ballot box: they do not want race-based preferences written into California policy. ACA-7 tries to override that judgment.

@simpatico771 Is US in a hurry? They seem to be foot dragging. Will a ground invasion occur? Seems doubtful. So bring the troops ... slowly ... eavesdrop on Iran's defense planners. Key phrase of Konrad's post: Hormuz not open this year. Secondary: RU oil hit. Tertiary clue: Euro Intel

Laughable cope. The "theory" is that US is "deliberately" dragging out opening Hormuz in order to extract concessions and leverage over Europe/China/etc. US can reopen Hormuz any time it wants but simply doesn't want to. Uh huh. These are the US's "top" strategic thinkers.
John Ʌ Konrad V@johnkonrad

Just got off the phone with a source tied to European intelligence. He laid out a theory on Hormuz that stopped me cold. It’s a continuation of my previous Hormuz Hypothesis. If true, it explains everything. If true, the strait isn’t reopening this year. Talked to @mercaborglanos. He couldn’t punch a hole in it. Working on how to present this. It could panic markets and unleash hell on me from every direction so I should be careful. Plus the TDS afflicted would do everything possible to discredit me and knives would be out from certain groups in my own party. 🤯​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ What I can say is…. what if Trump really is trying to prevent a mega catastrophe? What if everyone’s worst case scenario right now is too conservative? Why has Big Oil and the other Gulf States been relatively silent while the rest of the world screams for US troops to withdraw? Why would Trump want crappy European frigates in Hormuz? Why wouldn’t he send more extremely capable destroyers? Why is he leaving US Merchant Marine ships in the Gulf unprotected? Why is Joe Kent still so supportive of Trump? Why hasn’t Trump gone on a tirade against Joe? Why can’t anyone tell us if there are mines in Hormuz or not? Why aren’t citizens of Iran overthrowing the government? Why aren’t Iran proxies like the Houthis going on the offensive? Why are we unsactioning Iranian oil tankers? Why are refineries blowing up in Russia and Texas? Why has the US asked China to step in and help? Something is seriously wrong and I’ve only heard one explanation that answers every question. What if my Hormuz Hypothesis is correct but the stakes are MUCH higher than anyone thought? 👇
