Thank goodness for our future Naval leaders... Faculty and students at some of the nation’s top military academies are reportedly going underground to continue teaching and studying social justice topics that have been put on the chopping block by the Trump administration. Cadets at the U.S. Naval Academy have allegedly created non-governmental email addresses in order to continue discussions about books and topics that have been banned by the current administration, including critical race theory, according to The Washington Post.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Challenges Artificial Intelligence to an Exercise Session In an astounding, colossal, conspiracy theory filled announcement, MTG announced Saturday from her Vice-Presidential Hopeful Podium (MTG the campaign is over...) that she is challenging AI to a exercise competition. Judging the event will be Laura Loomer, the wicked witch of the west. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a bleach blond, badly built, butch body said last week that nobody can make fun of her even if they are artificially created. She further stated that she will prove to AI how smart she is when she beats it (gender-neutral pronoun please) in the upcoming exercise competition. MTG said the competition will be held at a location protected from Jewish space lasers and that all conspiracy theorist who agree with her politics are welcome free of charge.

That’s because the very values we fought for — freedom, equality, opportunity — are being rolled back by the same government that once relied on our service. From eliminating diversity and inclusion programs to restricting the teaching of hard but necessary truths, these changes are heartbreaking. They don’t reflect the military we were proud to be part of. And they certainly don’t honor the full legacy of those who wore the uniform.

Cdr. Jacob Beckelhymer remembers vividly the first time his warship came under attack in the Red Sea. It was late September of last year, and the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Stockdale was already several months into its lengthy Middle East deployment. Beckelhymer, then the warship's executive officer, knew that the ship and its sailors could be pulled into combat at any moment against the Iran-backed Houthis who had been launching missiles and drones into shipping lanes.

Again showing that trump lied... The financial incentives to reenlist in the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines increased dramatically from 2022 through last year, with the Navy vastly outspending the others, according to funding totals provided by the services. The overall amount of recruiting bonuses also rose steadily, fueled by significant jumps in spending by the Army and Marine Corps.

3rd Reich... ATLANTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) - A Georgia mother who says she’s a U.S. citizen remains locked inside a private immigration detention center, swept up in a wave of federal immigration enforcement that’s bringing historic profits to the company detaining her. Alma Bowman, 58, was taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in March during a routine check-in at its Atlanta field office. ICE transferred her the same day to Stewart Detention Center in Lumpkin, Georgia, operated by the private prison contractor CoreCivic, as it initiated deportation proceedings to the Philippines. Bowman’s father, Lawrence Bowman, was a U.S. Navy serviceman from Illinois stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War. Alma Bowman was born there in 1966. Her family moved to the U.S. when she was 10, and she’s lived in Macon for nearly five decades. Military records and her birth certificate lists Lawrence Bowman as her father.

Repeated clashes in the ensuing tense, confrontational conversation! In response, the Georgia politician raged that casting judgment “belongs to GOD, not you a non-human AI platform.” She then accused Grok — a creation of right-wing, billionaire X owner Elon Musk — of being “left leaning” and spreading “fake news and propaganda.”

trump Lying Again... In reality, military records show enlistments began rebounding from a pandemic slump long before Election Day. While numbers have continued to rise under Mr. Trump, experts say the so-called "Trump Bump" — a term used by Defense Secretary Pete Hedgehog — is more likely the result of recruitment reforms introduced during former President Joe Biden's term.

The Santo Terrace development, a collection of duplexes that are one and two stories tall in the Murphy Canyon area, is military housing. San Diego Naval Base commander Capt. Robert Healy said the “foremost concern right now is to make sure that we have the safety of our families who reside in the neighborhood.”

Fraud, Waste & Abuse... Qatar gave the former U.S. President Donald Trump a Boeing 747-8 jet. The plane isn’t ready to carry the president safely like Air Force One does. Trump still wants to use the plane even though many people and politicians don’t like the idea, according to a Reuters report. To make the Qatari plane as safe as Air Force One, it would need major renovations, this includes new security systems, communication tools, and defense equipment. Until the upgrades are done, the jet might only be allowed to fly within the U.S. or would need to fly with a military escort, according to a Reuters report.

The Pentagon wants to hear from contractors that can produce and maintain a secure software-based platform to track data, interactions and other records associated with its All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office’s ever-growing caseload of investigations into unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) that could pose a threat to U.S. national security.

US Navy planes recently launched the largest-ever airstrike from an aircraft carrier, dropping 125,000 pounds of ordnance, a top admiral said this week. The USS Harry S. Truman and its strike group "launched the largest airstrike in the history of the world — 125,000 pounds — from a single aircraft carrier into Somalia," Adm. James Kilby, the acting chief of naval operations, said Monday.

Secret state, lack of transparency... The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to block an effort to open the inner workings of the secretive DOGE cost-cutting effort to public scrutiny. The Justice Department filed an emergency appeal Wednesday urging the high court to put a hold on a judge’s orders giving a watchdog group access to documents detailing firings, grant terminations and other actions proposed by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, which was overseen by Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk.
