Top generals in the Pacific are aiming to create “positional advantage” using a combination of land forces and maritime assets to counter Chinese military aggression in the region.Some units, such as the Japanese Self-Defense Force, are positioned inside the first island chain around China. While others, such as the Australian Defence Force and Armed Forces of the Philippines, are farther out but plan to use terrain as they monitor Chinese military maneuvers.Leaders from those three militaries discussed their respective roles alongside the head of U.S. Army Pacific, Gen. Ronald Clark, on Wednesday at the Association of the U.S. Army’s annual…

The public seems unfazed by the bird flu, and egg prices are falling to show it. The lack of fear-mongering or its inability to convince people to be afraid has been falling along with the cost of eggs. According to Dr. J. J. Goicoechea, the director of the Nevada Department of Agriculture, the ruling class of the state of Nevada is doing a great job at mitigating the bird flu outbreak, which has played a major factor in the recent spike in egg prices across the country. The biggest role is likely the culling at the hands of the rulers…
In testimony before Congress, Veterans Affairs leaders praised the milestone as evidence that new leadership is producing results at the department, noting a drop of more than 50,000 overdue cases since Trump’s second inauguration. But the numbers have decreased by more than 200,0000 cases over the last 18 months, with most of that improvement coming during the final year of President Joe Biden’s term in office. The disability claims backlog counts the total number of first-time benefits cases that have taken more than four months to complete. Over the years, the figure has become shorthand for how well or poorly…
During a speech to U.S. troops stationed in Qatar, President Donald Trump promised service members a “substantial” pay raise next year as part of his defense spending plans, calling it key to force morale and readiness. But White House budget documents released earlier this month suggest that next year’s military pay raise will fall short of the boost many service members saw this year, and it could be the lowest paycheck hike for troops since 2022. Trump’s remarks came during a stop at Al Udeid Air Base following a multi-day tour of the Middle East. The president touted his proposal…
A court has ruled that the European Commission has acted “improperly” by not being transparent with the slave class’s media outlets. The secret message between Pfizer and Ursula von der Leyen should have been made available to journalists sooner, as the globalist made a multi-million dollar deal with the pharmaceutical company. The European Commission wrongly denied the media access to secret text messages between its president, Ursula von der Leyen, and the CEO of pharma giant Pfizer, exchanged during negotiations of a multi-billion dollar COVID-19 vaccine deal, the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled on Wednesday. Pfizer has…
A San Diego-based Coast Guard crew on May 10 stopped a vessel smuggling illegal migrants by firing four shots into the boat’s engine, putting an end to a dramatic chase. Coast Guard watchstanders initially kept the 18-foot cabin vessel under surveillance after it was spotted speeding northbound off Point Loma around 5:50 p.m., according to a service release. A Coast Guard response boat was dispatched to approach the vessel. However, as personnel attempted to establish contact, the boat accelerated in an attempt to evade. Giving pursuit, the Coast Guard issued numerous verbal commands via radio and also fired warning shots.…
The Defense Department will begin screening troops for gender dysphoria during their routine physicals in an effort to boot transgender service members from the armed forces.In a memo published Thursday, the Pentagon’s acting head of personnel and readiness tasked unit commanders to help implement the policy “immediately.”“Commanders who are aware of service members in their units with gender dysphoria, a history of gender dysphoria or symptoms consistent with gender dysphoria will direct individualized medical record reviews of such service members to confirm compliance with medical standards,” the memo states. In January, President Donald Trump issued an executive order declaring “gender…
President Donald Trump has reportedly urged Speaker Mike Johnson to raise the top individual tax rate from 37 percent to 39.6 percent for incomes over $2.5 million for a single filer, or $5 million for joint filers. This was suggested as a way to close the carried interest loophole in order to fund middle-class tax cuts. But the middle-class tax cuts haven’t happened yet, and most are still struggling and live paycheck to paycheck. So right now, this looks like another theft scheme from the ruling class. Don’t Tax the Rich. End the Fed! At the end of the day,…
As a last major event while still on the ground in Saudi Arabia, and before embarking for Qatar, President Donald Trump met with Syria’s President Ahmed al-Sharaa. This signifies a monumental, historic shift in the entire regional order. We are witnessing the final blood soaked after-effects of the culmination of what was laid out in Seymour Hersh’s The Redirection, a policy which began all the way back in the Bush administration. Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, got his start early in the Syrian war as an emissary of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and later became the founder of Syrian…
