It helps slow bacterial growth and extends the life of your meat when there’s no electricity, no freezer, and no second chances.…
The head of the U.S. Space Force is moving ahead with plans to pull talent from Air National Guard units to help build up the still new military service — but several governors remain opposed and argue it tramples on their rights to retain control over their state units. Overall, the plan would affect only 578 service members across six states and the Air National Guard headquarters and augment the Space Force without creating a separate Space Force National Guard — something the service has said would not be efficient because it would be so small. “We are actively pursuing…

A team of Russian negotiators is in Istanbul on Thursday for the first direct peace talks with Ukraine in more than three years. Russia’s Foreign Ministry officials say the delegation is “ready for serious work.” President Putin, who, as expected, is not there in person, tapped his aide and former culture minister, Vladimir Medinsky, to lead the talks, which many Western analysts have claimed is an ‘insult’ given it’s not someone more senior. Medinsky, it should be remembered, oversaw the failed 2022 peace talks with Kiev in the weeks after the February invasion.
