Credit where it's due: Tucker is amazing at confidently delivering absolute lies. Here he is claiming that Churchill locked up members of the opposition party during WW2. When, in fact, Churchill led a National Government, i.e. one that INCLUDED leaders of the opposition parties in prominent roles. Labour leader Clement Atlee was appointed Churchill's Deputy and other leading Labour and Liberal politicians held major roles in the cabinet. The person Tucker is talking about is Oswald Mosley who was the leader of the British Union of Fascists and was not elected to anything. He wanted Britain to become a fascist country and work with Hitler. Despite this, contrary to Tucker's claims, he was not even detained for the full duration of the war and was released in 1943, two years before it ended. In most other countries he would have been hanged for treason without a second thought the day the war started. Britain's treatment of this tiny group of fascists, i.e. enemy sympathisers and collaborators, during WW2 is an example of extraordinary restraint and respect for the sanctity of human life and freedom that was not only unparalleled in the world at that time but arguably remains rare and hugely admirable even by the standards of today across most of the world. In short, Tucker is completely wrong and we can only conclude that the spreading of these malicious lies is motivated not only by his ignorance of history but also by the fact that he will say ANYTHING he deems necessary to suit his political agenda. His opposition to the current war in Iran, about which I myself have expressed some skepticism, does not justify this behaviour and is, in fact, undermined by it - no right- thinking person can take him seriously after this.

This kind of stuff happens during war. We should be on guard.

@aakashgupta @KelemenCari When you have well maintained shade trees Geico pressures to remove any tree with its canopy over or near the house no matter how healthy and well cared for. So the exact trees that lower energy costs🤦‍♂️

Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild. A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute. Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home. So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room. The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely. The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running. Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.

🚨 HOLY CRAP. Nick Shirley DECIMATES Gavin Newsom 🔥 “The governor of California is an ENEMY to the people of California. He’s literally working to support the fraudsters!” “He COULD be working to expose the fraud.” “How STUPID do you have to be to say ‘let’s go after the guy exposing the fraud, let’s not go after the fraudsters?’” “That is what he’s doing. Why don’t you say ‘Hey Nick, great video - how can we help?’” “These tax dollars don’t say right or left on them, Republican or Democrat. Each tax dollar is a dollar for the American people.” “And when they go and steal these dollars from us, they are not robbing liberals or Democrats, they are robbing everyone.” “Then the governor gets mad at the person exposing the fraud? How crazy do you have to be to think that logic?!” @nickshirleyy Mic drop. H/t @TVNewsNow

We’re not just fighting against the evil we uncover. We’re also fighting the “nothing will happen” nihilism from many of you. We’re going to publish more crimes on tape of cash-for-ballots and we’re going to make it happen. Every day, another video. Don’t fight us. Join us.

They bury the Dad’s full quote at the end of the article. And they REALLY buried the lede. “Simmons recalled something his son had told him before volunteering for the mission that ended his life. “He said, ‘Dad, I can’t give you any details, but if civilians knew what we knew, a lot of the criticism [of the war] would cease,” he said. Simmons came away from Dover with a better impression of the war’s architects than he had when he arrived. Trump teared up and hugged him, evincing warmth and compassion at odds with the president’s public persona, Simmons said. He also credited Trump for looking him “straight in the eye.” “He extended his condolences father to father and conveyed how difficult it is to make decisions to put the children of other parents in peril,” Simmons said. As for Hegseth, “When I talked to him, I got the impression that he was torn because he seemed to be a very compassionate man, faced with difficult decisions as it pertains to war,” Simmons said. “I also let him know that Tyler was my only son. And you could see the emotion on his face. And I think those kinds of things you can’t fake,” he continued. “I was pleasantly surprised because the perception is they [Trump and Hegseth] don’t care, they’re going to do what they want to do,” he said. “I got to see a different side of them up close and personal.”

But the father of one of those service members says he never said that. "I can't speak for the other families.

KC-10 Driver ✈️ 👨‍✈️ B-737 Wrangler
A funny combat sortie in the KC-10: We’re meeting up w/ a formation of British Tornados to fuel them in Afghanistan. Our next customers, F-16s if I recall correctly, announced they were showing up early, too. We de-conflicted them altitude wise & arranged the meeting point. As we approach, I can see both formations. They are nearing a rendezvous point from maybe 135° off different headings, the Tornados are closer. We’ll fly over & do a turn to help them get behind us…the Vipers have more time & will maneuver to wherever we are. Anyway, suddenly the Tornados start dispensing flares & roll hard, pulling G to get to a different aspect of something & splitting up. The Vipers soon follow…or maybe they did simultaneously, I could only really see one flight at a time. 4 jets all getting away from us as fast as they can. It takes me a second to figure out what’s going on. You see, the KC-10 had no real sensors. If someone was shooting at us, we didn’t know unless we saw it with our eyes. That was it, that was all we had. If we did manage to see it, we had no flares to dispense or any other countermeasures. We could try to turn or maneuver vertically. Good luck, Maverick, remember it still weighs 550,00 lbs after you’ve burned 40,000 to get to the front. The fighters, though, had systems that can “see” a missile launch. They don’t need a “radar lock on them” like in the movies…the sensors see the heat plume & maybe even the track of a missile & can automatically start dispensing flares & such. It’s a necessity…not all missiles are guided by radar, some look for the Infrared Profile. In layman’s terms, they are “Heat Seekers”, but it’s way more complicated than that. So they are sitting & watching with sensors that don’t send out a signal to be detected until they launch…it’s extremely difficult to tell you are being targeted until it’s in the air. (These missiles have gone through decades of being developed, having countermeasures developed to defeat them, then developing a way to defeat countermeasures, to have new countermeasures introduced, etc., etc.. They are very sophisticated) But then they launch, and the second they do there are warnings in the cockpit…hiding the heat plume of a missile is pretty difficult. If equipped, the jet may dispense flares or other countermeasures automatically. Missiles come fast, you’ll only have a little reaction time to change your aspect & evade. So, there I am, watching the fighters go away, and realizing why they are doing it. Then realizing I can’t do anything & even if I could, it was too late. After maybe 30 seconds with no loud bang, I start thinking this has taken too long. There is some amount of time that passes, but eventually the Tornados come on the radio & apologized for a false alarm. Their sensors had picked up & interpreted a heat plume from the ground & sounded the alarm. I don’t know if the Tornado dispenses flares automatically or not, but it looked cool when the flares all came out. Viper pilots don’t apologize. You should never expect an apology from a Viper pilot. I was probably in the wrong for endangering them. I didn’t say it on the radio, but I wanted to say “what fucking alarm, dude, you bailed & didn’t say a damn thing to the brightest meatball in the sky”. What I said is something along the lines of “no problem, join up left wing, we’re trailing the drogue”. Hope you liked the story! As a coincidence, this is what I find questionable about video of an F-35 flying in a straight line & doing nothing after an IR missile is launched against it, then just keeps flying in the same straight line after getting hit & I wonder what the wingman was doing, too. P.S.: new tankers & military cargo jets have sensors now, too. You can google “LAIRCMS” & go down the rabbit hole. Enjoy! Also, picture is not related to the story.

If you are now an "American Voter" you don't need to do anything. The SAVE Act applies to REGISTRATION to vote, not voting itself. So NEW VOTERS who have never registered MIGHT opt to get a passport. Or they could use their birth certificate along with their ID and register. None of this is complicated.
Turnbull@cturnbull1968

If every American voter, without a passport, decided to get a passport, as their primary form of ID, it would take 5 years to fill the requests. But Republicans want this to be in effect before the midterms. They know this, of course, so it’s obvious voter suppression.

@jacktronprime .@Alladdin1983 Title 10 is Military, Title 50 is Intel. NCTC Directors have "all-source" access by law. Kent wasn't "denied" info because of a lack of authority—he was likely frozen out b/c under FBI investigation for leaking, well before he was booked for Tucker.

🤭🤣The space flight Gordon Cooper returned from, Faith 7, occurred in 1963 which was 17 years before the department of education that so obviously failed to help properly educate you was created in 1980. Cooper was born in 1927, primarily educated in Oklahoma, but graduated high school in Kentucky in 1945 as his family moved. Upon graduating high school he enlisted in the Marines. So Cooper was educated 35 years before the department of education was ever created. Just another great example that a federally funded lobbying institution exclusively for Democrats isn’t necessary or advantageous to providing sufficient public education. Well done pointing that out👍

May 16, 1963. Gordon Cooper was orbiting Earth alone inside a capsule barely big enough to turn around in, moving at 17,500 miles per hour. He had been up there for over a day. Then the warnings started. First a faulty sensor screaming that the ship was falling — it wasn't. He switched it off. Then something far worse: a short circuit knocked out the entire automated guidance system. The one that kept the capsule steady. The one that was supposed to bring him home. Without it, reentry was nearly impossible. Too shallow an angle and the capsule would bounce off the atmosphere back into space. Too steep and it would incinerate. The margin for error was razor thin — and every computer that was supposed to hit that margin was dead. Down on the ground, NASA engineers watched the telemetry in silence. They could see everything going wrong. They could fix nothing. Cooper didn't panic. He uncapped a grease pencil and drew lines directly on the inside of his window to track the horizon. He looked up at the stars he had spent months memorizing and used their positions to orient the ship by eye. Then he set his wristwatch. Because when you have no computers left, you become the computer. At exactly the right moment — calculated in his head, confirmed by the stars outside — he fired the retrorockets. The capsule shook. The sky turned to fire. For several minutes, no one on Earth could reach him as plasma swallowed the ship whole. Then the parachutes opened. Faith 7 hit the water just four miles from the recovery ship — the single most accurate splashdown in the entire Mercury program. The man with a wristwatch and a few pencil marks on a window had outperformed every automated system NASA had. We talk a lot about technology saving us. And it often does. But Cooper's story is a quiet reminder that behind every machine, there still has to be a human being who can look out the window, think clearly under pressure, and decide what to do next. The final backup was never the software. It was him.
