Who needs Maverick? US Navy installs first drone control centre

Pilots risking their lives could be a thing of the movies as aircraft carrier is fitted with the first hi-tech command centre for controlling unmanned drones

Conflicts such as the Battle of Midway and fictional depictions including the Top Gun films lionised the image of US Navy pilots risking their lives flying dangerous missions from aircraft carriers.

But in future such operations may be flown without a pilot on board, after the American military installed its first high-tech command centre for controlling all types of unmanned drones.

USS George HW Bush is the first of the US Navy’s 11 carriers to be fitted with an unmanned air warfare centre, a dedicated command system which will be capable of masterminding what will become an increasingly important role in naval operations.

Michael Higgins: Liberal MP attacks Canadians by spreading P.E.I. protest-fire hoax

LPC MP Sean Casey – Hate Crime Hoaxer

Liberal MP Sean Casey would have done better last week condemning the pesky mosquito, that scourge of summer, rather than issuing a self-righteous, moralizing manifesto that appeared to attack Canadians.

High on dudgeon, but low on fact, Casey went to bat for a group of foreign workers in Charlottetown, PEI, who claimed that a protesters’ tent was deliberately set on fire while people were sleeping inside.

Avoid meetings in ‘racist’ buildings, librarians told

Librarians should avoid holding meetings in “racist” buildings, decolonisation training experts have advised.

Libraries across Wales have been given the task of becoming “anti-racist”, in line with the devolved Labour government’s pledge to “eradicate” systemic racism by 2030.

Training is being devised as part of a £130,000 project to instruct local librarians in “critical whiteness studies” and how to deal with issues like the “dominant paradigm of whiteness”.

Liberals say their BC drug policies not to blame for spike in overdose deaths

Addictions Minister Ya’ara Saks is pushing back against claims that the decriminalization of cocaine and opioids in BC is responsible for a recent surge in overdose deaths.

Blacklock’s Reporter says in a briefing note, her office stated it is “inaccurate to claim” that the policy change is the cause of the 16.5% increase in overdose fatalities reported during the decriminalization period.

Biden Committed ‘Impeachable Conduct’ to Further Family Influence-Peddling Scheme, House Republicans Allege in Final Report

House Republicans have concluded their impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden after finding that the president engaged in “impeachable conduct” to further his family’s years-long influence-peddling campaign, which racked up more than $27 million from foreign sources made to believe they could influence the operations of American government through their access to the Biden family.

Kamala Harris And Tim Walz Are The Ultimate DEI Ticket

Right-of-center groups and individuals that don’t usually agree on much have been delivering the same warning to former President Donald Trump: Shut up about Vice President Kamala Harris’ race and stick to attacking her on policy.

Yet they cannot hide what everyone knows to be true: Harris is the ultimate DEI candidate. Candidate Joe Biden chose her as his running mate in 2020 because she is a black woman, and she ascended to the apex of national politics due to her race and sex.

Secret Service finds protecting Trump is extraordinarily challenging … on account he refuses to get killed

Just before Donald Trump held a rally in Doral, Fla., on July 9, Secret Service officials delivered his campaign a message: The former president and his advisers would notice additional security because the U.S. government had credible intelligence of threats against him.

“The bad guys are at it again,” an adviser said, describing the Secret Service’s message.

Rumors fly about Kamala having a drinking problem

If you leave the media bubble with its insistence that Kamala is brilliant and joyful and, instead, look at Kamala objectively, it’s clear that something is very wrong there. Most of us have assumed that she’s an ambitious dim-bulb who’s been stage-managed into a situation beyond her minimal capabilities and that she responds with strange word salads. However, there are now reports that Kamala’s real problem is that she’s an uncontrolled alcoholic who is showing up drunk at a lot of events. Is this true? I have no idea, but it’s certainly a reasonable explanation for what we’re seeing.

She’s drunk.

Journalists Who Are Jihad Terror Supporters

Many of the Arab journalists reporting on Israel and Gaza for the mainstream Western media, as well as for the Qatari propaganda outlet Al Jazeera, turn out to be longtime supporters of Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. These are the people on whom many in the gullible West have been relying for information, unaware of these journalists’ long associations with terror groups. Now one of their number, Bisan Owda, who works for Al Jazeera, and who turns out to have been for a long time a PFLP enthusiast, has been nominated for an Emmy in the category of “hard news feature story.” Robert Spencer wrote about this briefly here, and more on this scandalous state of affairs can be found here: “How Terrorist-State Propaganda Became the Norm for U.S. Audiences,” by Seth Mandel, Commentary, August 8, 2024 …

‘The Irish elites think the working class should go to hell’

Months before riots erupted in the UK, Dublin was rocked by its worst street violence in decades. On 23 November 2023, more than 60 officers were assaulted, buses and a tram were destroyed, and over a dozen shops were looted or vandalised when an anti-immigration protest turned into a riot. Earlier that day, a man stabbed three children and a care assistant at a Dublin primary school. He was rumoured to be an illegal migrant. Since then, anger over Ireland’s migration crisis has only grown. Asylum applications rose fivefold between 2019 and 2023, with tens of thousands of newcomers now arriving each year, placing pressure on already strained services and adding to an already chronic housing shortage. Asylum hotels in deprived and rural areas have become targets of both peaceful protests and, despicably, arson attacks.
