Aussie: The Intel management and analysis software that I was carrying never did make it into the Philippine Field Police’s computers and as far as I know they are still probably using their manual system of cared files and cardboard boxes. Apparently Maj Mendoza aka ‘Boogy’ was too busy shooting members of ‘sparrow teams’ circulating in Manila art the time assassinating Philippine officials to find time to meet.
I often wonder why western civilization has prevailed when we so obviously and often fuck up. Then I realize it’s probably because the other side fucks up even worse.
Your story about the young woman taken from Florida. Do these people sleep at night? No, I mean I realize most of them sleep during the day, hanging upside down, but I’m just beginning to imagine the fear that propels people to these lengths.
I got a very good exercise today in dealing with progressives. Apparently, being called names is an effective tactic with some people. Got called a Nazi, a monster and garbage.
They also lie. BRAZENLY. Tweets in the public domain for anyone to see deliberately mischaracterized. And an authority given to ‘feelings’ that is very strange. When I said (summarized) feelings aren’t worth the powder to blow them to hell when it comes to policy, THAT made me a ‘monster’ without empathy who thinks people are garbage.
I do not, for a nanosecond, think they actually ascribe to this – value system or whatever it is. They have no more respect for feelings than I do, which is zero. But they think it’s a way to manipulate people and really am at a loss as to why they think it works.

Horowitz is saying if they had followed the procedures/rules, none of this would have happened, the FBI is saying we didn’t have the money to keep our databases up to date/in sync.

I think VINDMAN is the real “weaselblower”. They had Ciaramella do the grunt work with Congress – the “stunt double” if you will – so that Tubby the Wonder Soldier could stay in the WH and spy. Cheatamella had already been kicked out for leaking so making HIM the WB would have shielded Tubby.

How soon the US forgets all of the blood and treasure poured out by the US Marine Corps in the Pacific just 75 years ago. How much did that cost the US?

I think just because it’s not in the media, which is worthless, doesn’t mean Trump is unaware. A lot of people don’t realize he plays to their presumption he’s an idiot. While they’re focused on what an unfit asshole he is, he’s off doing his thing. He doesn’t really give a shit about his press, he knows how to push their buttons when he needs to.

I read his farewell address somewhere.
The PRC have stated out aloud that they have a three Chain strategy to dominate the Pacific.
Chain #1 The South China Sea and approaches to Chinese ports guarded by unsinkable artificial
island airfields and weapon stores. Their Area of Control
Chain #2 Melenesia and the Island chains including Fiji , The Solomon Islands Vanuatu and French Melanesia.These ports will host the Chinese Blue Water fleets outside the choke points of the First Island Chain Area of Influence
Chain #3 the Polynesian chain of islands where Chinese Area of Interest extends all the way to Tahiti and incorporates Samoa, Tonga and the rest of the island groups.
They have thrown down the gauntlet to the US and all we hear in the SW Pacific is the snores from the US and arguments about salacious rumours about impeachment and the latest gun tragedy at some US school.
50,00 dead US Marines are revolving in their graves about now!
On top of that China is dominating trade and influence in both Australia and especially NZ. NZ is the Keystone to the SW Pacific and access to the Antarctic. The 5 Chinese bases on the ‘Ice’ aren’t there for fun. They are constructing an anti-satellite system to take down US comms and GPS.

The Chinese took down the Australian Northern Territory by leasing the Port of Darwin for 99 years. Now they have used trade to ensure that the State of Tasmania is beholden to China with 355% of the States trade and that is heading towards 50% in short order. The State capital Hobart is a direct close access way to Antarctica. Similarly Invercargel at the bottom of NZ has a runway that the Chinese would love to ‘improve’ to take heavy Chinese cargo aircraft on their way to the Ice. Christchurch on the central East coast of NZ’s South Island is the gateway for all USAF MAC flights headed to the Ice.
Both Australia and NZ have been attempting to sign trade agreements with the US to little avail for years. OZ has an agreement of sorts but the ‘escape clauses added by US special interest groups make that treaty almost useless. NZ STILL has no US free / fair Trade treaty.
I talked to a very good friend in DC about this. He’s a specialist in the PLAAF (Chinese Airfore) His reply was that he only deals with defence capabilities and knows NOTHING about trade! Bloody hell! Wars start over Trade almost always and not which side has the current air ground comms, or the best sortie rate.
The US appears to be asleep at the wheel guys!
AS I said before China is eating your lunch!
355% = 35.5%

As far back as 1941 the US was looking East towards Europe and the ME. Nothing’s changed.
Yet the major challenger to US supremacy as a world power is off their West Coast! CHINA
Stationing a single Marine Battalion in Australia’s NT on a 6 month rotation is a more peccadillo. A MAJOR covert US early warning system is based out of Australia’s desert interior and is for all intents and purposes undefended!

You see Eagles… that’s the type of US attitude that always gets it into these situations where they have to play from a really bad position.
Australia and NZ don’t want free trade. Fair Trade in an environment where they don’t get shafted by US special interest groups and bought and paid for DC swamp critters. Hell the Aussies even realised that way back in the 1960s that they were effectively ‘on their own’ when it came to defence. They even began to build their own bomb because they didn’t have the population to defend a whole continent. The US totally screwed the Aussies and even threatened the UK that if they supported Australia get their own bomb then the US would crush Britain’s economy.
With mate like that who needs enemies.Even now Australia pays through the n one for US defence tech. NZ is just the size of a medium US city yet it holds the key to the security of the whole SW Pacific Ocean. Likewise Australia holds the choke points and approaches to over half of the globe’s productive capacity.

That is what is happening as we speak in the Asia Pacific but the US remains asleep at the wheel, with thinking that is mired in the 1980s.

New York (CNN Business)A secretive startup backed by Bill Gates has achieved a solar breakthrough aimed at saving the planet.
Heliogen, a clean energy company that emerged from stealth mode on Tuesday, said it has discovered a way to use artificial intelligence and a field of mirrors to reflect so much sunlight that it generates extreme heat above 1,000 degrees Celsius.
Essentially, Heliogen created a solar oven — one capable of reaching temperatures that are roughly a quarter of what you’d find on the surface of the sun.

There is nothing soft anywhere. Ever. And oddly enough, if you look at his work, do you ever see a kitchen? No. You. Do. Not. At Falling Waters the kitchen was roped off. So, of course, when I thought I had half a chance, I jumped the rope and checked it out.

@ Teitchy
The RNC makes a brillant move. Take a look at this ad.

@ Gateway Pundit
The Biden Campaign blasts out a fund raising email with Joe saying “I am just leaving the fifth debate. Did I make you proud”
Problem is that it was sent hours before the debates begin! What can one say?
This little grandson is very special:
Being able to look after him on a regular basis is wonderful

You mean missing as in run away missing.
OR
Missing as in forming the foundations of an expressway missing?

14 months and getting to the very interesting stage. His brain is like a little sponge.
Grabbed my cell phone. Turned it on and swiped it to get to the entry page and then tried to punch in an opening code!
I kid you not!

Mixed feelings today. Dropped my resume off for my dream job. Got informed by the Principal/owners wife that I will only get hired if no one else qualified applies. (Not by her choice, she wants me there). Because, my mother teaches there. The board doesn’t want relatives working there because of one bad experience in the past. However, they will be more than happy to keep me on the substitute list. (Which only has me working a day or two every month or so.)

No worries. Just get your mother to sign papers putting you up for adoption.
Then send me the corresponding paperwork and I will adopt you. You will then be a child in a single male family. A minority and protected status.
Problem solved!
Oh by the way, even though your mother gave you away for adoption you can see her as often as you want.
Sounds crazy? Not really the way society is going.

Dang, there’s words I never thought I’d see strung together: “The RNC makes a brilliant move …”
Somebody starting to find their spines and huevos and have decided they like that?
@ Deplorable Martian Overlord:
In practical terms, how likely is it that someone else who is qualified applies?

Lots of people trying for teaching jobs right now. And this one doesn’t require a teaching degree. So, it could be rough.
What the hell happened with this ambassador who first said no quid pro quo, then turned around and said there was pressure?
Just watched about 30 mins of the Democrat debate thing.
SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT BLACK!
You is going to get me killed….
Already here I do not go out after dark.
