Robert Beckhusen, The National Interest - 16 hours ago
*Robert Beckhusen* *F-22, Middle East* Iran’s air force is very badly outgunned. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *It would be interesting to know how the Raptors managed to remain in stealth. Did the pilots use radar? Were they vectored by an AWACS? Back in 2013, Pentagon press secretary George Little said that an Iranian air force F-4 Phantom combat plane attempted to intercept a U.S. MQ-1 Predator drone flying through international airspace near Iran. As we reported back then, one of the two F-4 Phantom jets — in service in Iran since the Shah — came to about 16 miles from ...
Your Stimulus Check Can't Be Taken by Debt Collectors In This State
Stephen Silver, The National Interest - 16 hours ago
*Stephen Silver* *Stimulus Payment, * [image: Stimulus Payment Debt] New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed legislation last week that will prevent private debut collectors from garnishing coronavirus stimulus money. Not long after Congress passed the American Rescue Plan in March, some noticed that the law did not have a provision that kept private debt collectors from garnishing the bill’s $1,400 stimulus checks. When the CARES Act passed in early 2020, such garnishments were forbidden. The stimulus checks cannot be garnished by unpaid federal debts or back taxes, although private ...
How Americans Get Their News
A Political Junkie, Viable Opposition - 16 hours ago
There is little doubt that we live in a post-truth era, particularly when it comes to governments and their mainstream media lackeys. The reportage during the ongoing pandemic and the 2020 United States presidential election is proof that we can no longer trust the media for independent and thoroughly researched news coverage. Given these observations, in this posting, we'll look at which sources of news Americans rely on for their daily intake of events that are occurring around the world. In mid-2020, Pew Research Center completed a survey looking at where Americans get t...

The key points: 80% of survey respondents who'd heard about Liz Cheney's removal from a leadership position in the House approved of the ouster. Given the choice of sounding like Trump cultists or merely loyal Republicans, they slightly favored the latter (52% said the ouster was good because Cheney "did not support Donald Trump," while 57% said it was good because "she's wrong about the election" and 69% say it's because she's "not on message with the party"; multiple responses were allowed)....
