Original Article

To spite President Trump, and in an unspoken way, succor China, Democrats are moving in for the kill on the Space Force founded by President Trump in 2019, at long last finding a government program they don't want to make bigger. According to KPIX5, a CBS affiliate in San Francisco: WASHINGTON (CBS SF/CNN) — A North Bay congressman has introduced a bill to abolish the U.S. Space Force, a day after the newest branch of the military unveiled new uniform prototypes. Rep. Jared Huffman (D-San Rafael) introduced the No Militarization of Space Act as Congress moves to pass the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the annual bill that authorizes funding for the Pentagon.

One of the most important things Trump did... Space Force would protect our satellites... You know, those things we use for phones, banking, food, gas... Without satellites, we will lose the next war... without a shot being fired... In my opinion.

Space Force has a lot of enemies - foreign and domestic. The Chinese fear it for obvious reasons. The USAF was using the space forces as a bill payer when it (Space Force) was under the USAF. Remember, a large part of Space Force is in the cyber realm. Some people think DJT was a wack job for creating Space Force, I think he was a visionaire.

The Chinese have the best ASAT systems in the world and are developing their own secure version of GPS so that when they take out our military GPS capability they will still be able to find Taiwan. Huffman is what Xi Jinping refers to as an "old friend".

Control of the high ground is among the most essential of military tactics. I reckon it wouldn't matter anyhow, but the debris resulting from destroying satellites would make space useless for any purpose.

Being able to defend our comm sats is an important capability. We really do need an effective Space Force. And it is NOT the Air Force who neglected that mission for decades.

Space Force was a show pony. Its mission can be folded back into the Air Force without the need for the added cadre of flag officers, staff, and annual budget expansion to match mission expansion.

The next war will not be fought like the wars of the past. It will involve drone strikes and EMPs and strikes from satellites in space. And how shall we counter that if our government is dismantling our armed forces? . Time for those we elected to resist this idiocy or resign and let someone else who can fight for America take their place.

Sharpton gets shouted down by Hispanics

There's no charlatan like an old charlatan. And in the wake of the migrant surge at the border, out comes race hustler Rev. Al Sharpton from some blue city back east to Del Rio, Texas, to howl about all the supposed racism of the Border Patrol attempting to do their actual jobs, sending people breaking into the U.S. illegally back across the Rio Grande. For Sharpton, that wasn't an opportunity to opine about the humanitarian crisis and the failure of the Biden administration to protect local communities, but an opportunity to do the cuckoo-clock thing, and race bait, cynically using the fact that most of the illegal crossers were dark-skinned Haitians

Joe Biden has already trashed his presidency through his disastrous Afghanistan pullout and unprecedented border meltdown. Voters won't forgive these failures, and Democrats will pay in 2022 and 2024. But the emerging collapse of his domestic agenda in Congress -- the $1 trillion stimulus, with its $3.5 trillion "reconciliation" rider, is just as notable. According to Politico: Internal Democratic discord has wounded President Joe Biden’s massive social spending plan, raising the prospect that the package could stall out, shrink dramatically — or even fail altogether. Myriad problems have arisen. Moderate Senate Democrats Joe Manchin (W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (Ariz.) continue to be a major headache for party leadership’s $3.5 trillion target.

City boys don't know much about horse-riding out West, do they? Various tenderfoots in the media, followed by assorted Democrats, including the White House itself, have ignorantly claimed that the Border Patrol was using "whips" on migrants in Del Rio, Texas, following a series of misleading pictures published in the press. Here's an outraged tweet from a soft-handed city-bred bluecheck: (Snip for tweet) Fox News has a collection of these tweets saying the same thing from other bluechecks.

In the crudest crypto-censorship since dictators made newsprint unavailable, the Biden administration tried to shut down Fox News's coverage of the border crisis by cutting off its drone access for camera shots, depriving the network of the ability to broadcast the actual news in pictures as it was happening on the ground. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which has never been misused in this way, claimed its two-week shutoff was all about public safety. Thomas Lifson wrote about the sorry spectacle here. Here's the real reason: Fox News's original reporting, done by Bill Melugin (a must-follow on Twitter), documented a historic crisis building at the border

Facebook has shut down advertising for a new song by John Ondrasik, called "Got Blood on My Hands," about Joe Biden's disastrous pullout from Afghanistan. They did it on the typical spurious grounds of "violation of terms of service." The song denounces Biden's abandonment of thousands of Americans and allies behind enemy lines, the needless deaths of thirteen service members, all the best of the best, and names names of the culprits in the fiasco. Boy, is this a cold, angry song. And a very good one. Listen: (Snip for video) According to the Washington Free Beacon: Facebook blocked

The news in our country and abroad has been relentlessly bad ever since we entered the calamitous Biden Era just months ago, but there are a few hopeful signs out there still. One of the best is a story receiving almost no coverage in the larger press: the Venezuela elections this November. The democratic opposition has agreed to participate after years of boycotting the Maduro regime’s rigged voting. The EU will send a large team of election monitors and Maduro has already been releasing some political prisoners in a bid to end sanctions.

Nobody embodied that better than Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who wore a custom-designed white evening gown graffitied with 'Tax the Rich' in red spray paint on the back of it, just perfect for an event brimming with the superrich.

The marked decline in support for President Biden and his administration nationally and in key swing states indicates that the Democratic Party could endure a blowout defeat in the 2022 midterm elections. Moreover, Biden is in a significantly weaker position now than both of his most recent Democratic predecessors — Bill Clinton and Barack Obama — at this point in their presidencies, which suggests that Democrats could suffer even more substantial losses in 2022 than the party did in 1994 and 2010.

Almost 100 percent of Americans need to be vaccinated before the country can safely return to normal, President Joe Biden claimed Monday. Biden said that “97%, 98%” is the goal as a country during his much-publicized appointment to receive a COVID-19 booster shot Monday. He offered no explanation for the number. Medical experts, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, have predicted that herd immunity would only require 70% to 85% of Americans to be vaccinated.

But they got even more flak for the false story that the Border Patrol whipped migrants trying to enter, while on horseback.
