The Department of the Navy this week released its strategy for how it will deal with climate change and proceed toward the government’s goal of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. “Climate change is one of the most destabilizing forces of our time, exacerbating other national security concerns and posing serious readiness challenges,” Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro said in the introduction to the 32-page report. (snip) Setting the department on a course to combat climate change is a main priority of Del Toro’s tenure. He called the issue “existential” for the Navy and Marine Corps.

Navy Secretary talking about climate change, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen talking about abortion. Don't be surprised if the Commerce Secretary talks about sistemik raysizm.

Maybe they'll put the geniuses behind the littoral combat ships and the Gerald R. Ford catapult in charge of climate change. After all, melting glaciers and rising seawater will expand the Navy's area of operations, right? Guided missile cruisers in downtown Pittsburgh, right?

Mankind at present has little control over weather ... if we DID there would be much less concern about hurricane damage. But don't tell that to the nitwit politicians and Greenies who insist on controlling the lives of others. EVs, "climate change," carbon footprint are all ways to separate you from your earnings. The REAL existential threats to America are actual enemies who could care less about climate change. They're licking their chops as the fools in charge here seek votes instead of national strength. How did so many fools infiltrate so many influential positions. Oh yeah, the Democrats.

The important thing to remember is that while climate changes (as it has since the beginning of time) it's not currently occurring because white guys like to drive F150's.

While I believe in civilian control of the armed forces, this is ridiculous. What, exactly, qualifies this fool to be the secretary of an armed service? What next, a solar powered aircraft carrier? We can't have dastardly nuclear waste, can we? Is a solar and wind powered ballistic missile sub on the drawing board? When will the battery powered M-1 Abrams tank take to the field? When will Marines training in cold weather exercises get their solar and wind powered field kitchens? When will this stupidity end? CDR, USN (retired)

In the 1970s, Irene Demas and her husband Tony would trade dishes at their restaurant for the talents of the locals, including bakers, craftsmen, and artisans. One of these exchanges gave them something they could have never imagined: a painting by the acclaimed Canadian folk artist Maud Lewis, which is now worth thousands of dollars. Painter John Kinnear and his wife would go (to) the Villa, Irene’s restaurant, almost every day for lunch. And every time, Kinnear would only ever order a grilled cheese sandwich, which he exchanged for a selection of painting(s) from him and his friends. “Mind you, it wasn’t just an ordinary grilled cheese.

Mattel recently launched a new transgender Barbie doll to honor trans celebrity Laverne Cox on the occasion of Pride month.

The “Laverne Cox Barbie Tribute Collection” doll, which is intended for ages six and up, features a posable likeness of the Orange Is the New Black star wearing a red ball gown with a translucent skirt that reveals Cox’s legs. The collector’s item retails for $40.

Former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan will campaign for a Republican representative who surprised the political world by voting to impeach then-President Donald Trump last year, a development underscoring the fundamental divide between the pre- and post-Trump GOP. Ryan will stump for South Carolina Rep. Tom Price this week; Price, the representative for South Carolina’s 6th Congressional district, is among the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump a second time in January of 2021. “Tom Rice is a man of principle, a man of conviction, and a leader who always puts South Carolina’s interests first,” Ryan said to media this week.

A military strike that utilized quadcopter drones launched from inside Iran hit the top-secret Iranian military base at Parchin. It’s believed the strike targeted Iran’s drone research and development complex and not its missile or nuclear research facilities. No nation has claimed responsibility for the attack, but both Iran and the U.S. say that it fits the pattern of past attacks by Israel. The attack follows an assassination of a colonel in the Revolutionary Guards last week. Analysts believe the Israelis intended it as a warning to Iran to stop targeting Israeli citizens abroad.

Nancy Pelosi is in serious trouble. And not the kind of trouble associated with such petty, earthly concerns like her party losing its majority in a humiliating and historic fashion this coming November. And with that loss, her loss of the speakership for the second time in a dozen years. No, Nancy Pelosi has some serious trouble with the disposition of her soul. And she needs our prayers, even if she doesn't believe it herself. Last week, her Archbishop, the aptly named Salvatore Cordileone, notified Pelosi that she should no longer present herself for the Holy Eucharist when attending Mass.

A court in Ohio has ruled that a lawsuit from state Attorney General Dave Yost, which labels Google a common carrier subject to special regulations and litigation, can proceed, a significant development for Republicans seeking to hold tech companies accountable for bias and censorship. Under U.S. law, common carriers are subject to strict regulations about who they can and cannot deny service to. Along with businesses categorized as public accommodations, they are expected to provide service to all paying customers on a non-discriminatory basis. Examples of common carriers in the U.S. include utilities and telecommunications companies.

He claimed he had received an appointment to the Academy in 1965, when in fact he was graduating from the University of Delaware in 1965, so that couldn’t possibly be true.
