IIRC, some time around 2019 a female claimed that years earlier, when she was 13, Trump raped her (I think in an Epsteinian context). The FBI interviewed her 4 times and her story changed significantly each time. The FBI concluded that she was lying.

No matter one's politics, you can't find a single person who won't agree that there have been zillions of terrible decisions made by governments at every level. But, there's this group of pin cushioned, pink haired idiots who believe the government should push out the energy providers (who actually understand how these things work) and install government "public servants" (who can't master jumper cables)  take the whole thing over. Damn, these people are criminally stupid.
And the UK is leading the way to the cliff.

Ladies, how many times have you felt a burning rage when walking down the street and hearing some stranger tell you under his breath as he passed you by that you would be a lot prettier if you just smiled?)

#1. There are no ladies over at the dump.

#2. Wimmens over at the dump feel a burning rage by default, always looking for a target. They are enraged in perpetuity, with a possible but not confirmed exception of while they are asleep.

Oh the horrors! How dare some evil stranger say something to you that was most likely meant to brighten your day. If he had said "you're not as ugly when you smile", I concede your point.
At least he didn't follow up by calling you a conceited bitch.

Marines Just Added AI That Turns M240 Machine Guns Into Drone Killers

https://www.military.com/marines-just-added-ai-that-that-turns-m240-machine-guns-into-drone-killers

The Marine Corps has selected Allen Control Systems’ Bullfrog autonomous weapon station for integration into its Light Marine Air Defense Integrated System (L-MADIS) under the Ground-Based Air Defense (GBAD) program, according to a company announcement this week.

The move pairs the AI-powered robotic mount with the M240 machine gun already familiar to Marines, giving the service’s most expeditionary counter-drone platform a kinetic option that can detect, track and engage Group 1 through Group 3 unmanned aircraft systems at a fraction of the cost of missile interceptors.

The article does not give a deployment schedule, but some time in 2027 looks possible. This also looks to be one layer of several in an anti-drone system that uses lower-cost munitions to take out low-cost drones.

General Discussion / REVEALED: Here Are the Mainstream Journalists on China’s Payroll

REVEALED: Here Are the Mainstream Journalists on China’s Payroll

I exclusively uncovered the identities of prominent U.S. journalists flown to China by a CCP-linked influence operation seeking “favorable coverage” and “positive messages” about Beijing.

The names include:

- Ezra Klein, New York Times columnist
- Matthew Yglesias, Vox co-founder
- Ronald Brownstein, CNN senior political analyst
- Bradford Plumer, New York Times reporter
- Marjorie Miller, former Associated Press vice president

Also identified:

- Steve Clemons, former The Hill editor-at-large
- David Rohde, MS NOW senior national security reporter
- Jonathan Alter, NBC News and MSNBC political analyst
- David Sweeney, former NPR managing editor
- Daniel Gross, former Yahoo Finance columnist

Also on the roster:

- Marilyn Geewax, former NPR senior editor
- Kathleen Deveny, former Newsweek editor
- Tom Omestad, former U.S. News & World Report correspondent
- Steve Chapman, former Chicago Tribune columnist
- Bruce Stokes, former National Journal correspondent

The list continues:

- Craig Gilbert, former Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Washington bureau chief
- Tony Semerad, Salt Lake Tribune reporter
- Shikha Dalmia, former The Week columnist
- Jonathan Broder, former Newsweek senior writer

Also identified:

- Cristi Kempf, former Chicago Tribune associate managing editor
- Jon Healey, Los Angeles Times deputy editorial page editor
- Julian Pecquet, former Foreign Affairs reporter

I'm not going to bomb-toss the "T-Word", but minimally:

1. These "reporters" should be investigated and possibly prosecuted for being unregistered agents of a foreign country;

2. Professionally sanctioned for not giving the context of their bias whenever they "reported" about China, if not banished from anything/everything journalism. The NYT still holds onto its Walter Duranty Pullet Surprise, so I doubt this will happen.

They don't understand that those who led the charge for socialism / communism usually wind up in front of a firing squad :thatsright:

And those who don't end up there will be left with scant resources.
