Weirdly, I feel as though the LA riots were still doing a very effective job of diverting attention away from the actions of the US executive and legislative bodies. Like, maybe they sprung this one too soon accidentally?
Israel manufactured attack drones within Iran and then released them, from within. Not sure we planned for this one. And you really think that trump is behind a bunch of democrats doing democrat things in a horrible democratic state? They would rather burn down their own city then ever allow Trump to do anything, right or wrong, agree or disagree.
looks like our tax dollars paying for it all...The way it works is a Democrat or Congress will pass bill or sign a thing dedicating X amount of money towards causes like "climate change" or "fighting racism"
But it's not like Joe Biden personally delivers a check
That money is funneled into various umbrella organizations vaguely associated with those causes. And from there those organizations don't directly plant trees or whatever either.. They follow that money further down into various other organizations who funnel it even further. Essentially laundering the money so it's impossible to really trace
Eventually that original money that Biden appropriated would be funneled through hundreds or thousands of organizations. Some of whom then use it to pay various other organizations to do things
And if you managed to actually follow that money the whole way you'd find that a lot of it ends up in the hands of various activist groups. Usually political activist groups
And a lot of that money ends up funding anti-republican protests. Anti-Trump protests. Violent climate change protests that are really just anti-Trump rallies in disguise
It funds the protests outside supreme Court justices houses.. It funds the buses the Democrats used to bus the protesters around the country
If you actually follow the money from the beginning you'll find that in the end a lot of it is just your tax dollars directly funding activism against your political party. Which is technically illegal but since it's so hard to trace the money they get away with it
USAID was only the tip of the iceberg. That was directly funding anti-Trump protests.
But every time Congress or the president passes some bill directing money to fight racism or promote equality or fight climate change or whatever else the reality is that that's appropriating your tax dollars directly towards eventually funding things like the No King's protest
Illegal strikes is hilarious. Illegal nuclear program strangely wasn't mentioned. As if any "laws" matter to any country on the planet when they don't feel like following them.
Aaaanyway, here's a pair of images which were put together yesterday based on publicly available ADS-B transponder data, by the Global Conflict Reporting website.
On that one night alone, they counted twelve KC-135 tankers and four KC-46 tankers all departing the US and heading to Europe.
This is by no means an unprecedented movement, but it is an unusual one outside of the context of something like a planned NATO exercise or the US' direct involvement in a foreign war.
Because refueling aircraft of this type don't typically get sent across the ocean all by themselves. They are usually escorting other aircraft whose mission profile precludes the transmission of unencrypted ADS-B data.
The sort of aircraft with cool names and large bomb-bays which operate independently of things like big carrier battle groups that are easy to see from satellites.
But, yes, let's keep allowing ourselves to be distracted by whatever shiny thing the administration are dangling before us tomorrow. Maybe something about a white man who murdered some Democrat politicians, now that we've all gotten bored with LA, not to mention whatever the last-week thing was.

You're right. Although it was Jefferson Davis it was expanded from, "There are entire sectors of the economy in the South that depend on slave labor." This sentiment has come out of the mouths of countless liberals in the form of "who's gonna clean our toilets?", or "Who is gonna make our burritos?"
Not surprised to hear this from the founders of the KKK. Consistency counts.
