Is Joe Biden President Woodrow Wilson Come Again?
*Mark Episkopos* *Joe Biden, Foreign Policy, World* A deeper look at the Biden administration’s emergent policy approach, and many of Biden’s own statements, reveals an altogether different truth. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Biden’s emergent progressive messianism drastically diverges from the Obama administration’s frequent reluctance to reshape the world and general humility about the limits of American power. President Joe Biden took to the State Department earlier this week to chart a radical new course for the United States. In a February 4 speech on “America’s Place... read more

Are the Russians Building Laser Tanks?
*Alex Hollings* *Laser Tank, * Much about the Soviet laser tank’s capabilities remain classified to this day *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *There are rumors the Russians are restarting their laser tank program. Near the end of the Cold War, the Soviet Union began experimenting with the idea of fielding a laser-equipped tank that could blind the targeting systems of inbound ballistic missiles or vehicles. Ultimately, two prototypes of the laser-armed 1К17 Сжатие, translated to “Compression,” were built, though they weren’t complete until the Soviet Union fell and was replac... read more

Rough Job: A Nuclear Bomb Exploded Over These Six Men
*Peter Suciu* *Nuclear Weapons Testing, * When the AIR-2 Genie was launched at eighteen thousand feet from an F-89J interceptor and detonated over the Yucca Flats in Nevada there were six men directly underneath.

Instead of being granted three wishes the five United States Airmen and cameraman who volunteered to stand direct... read more

The Kazakhstan Crisis Is A Much Bigger Deal Than The Western Media Is Letting On
*Zero Hedge:* *Why The Kazakhstan Crisis Is A Much Bigger Deal Than Western Media Is Letting On* Geopolitical commentator Clint Ehrlich has reported while on the ground in Moscow that "the situation in Kazakhstan is a much bigger deal than Western media is letting on."

* Industrial Wind Turbines Once Again Demonstrate their Unreliability* The unreliability of those industrial wind turbines (IWT), touted as a key ingredient to save the world from “global warming” by eco-warriors and obtuse politicians, once again demonstrated their uselessness! Here in Ontario on December 28, 2021 at 4 AM (the middle of the night) they were cranking out power (when demand was low) generating 69.4% (3,072 MWh) of their rated capacity but by 4 PM in the afternoon when demand was much higher their output was a miserly 1.5% (65 MWh) of their rated capacity.

* Prime Age Mortality up 40 Percent, Majority of Deaths Not From COVID-19* * The obvious but unstated point arising fro the figures below is that many of the extra deaths would have been related not to COVID but to the government respone to it. A big problem would seem to be (for instance) that many people bombed themselves out with drugs to enable them to cope with isolation etc. Ill-advised government policies were a major cause of deaths* Mortality among young-to-middle-age Americans went through the roof last year. The majority of the increase didn’t involve COVID-19, according... read more
Why China Hides Its True Defense Budget from America
*Alex Hollings* *China Defense Spending, * Last year, fighter pilots in the U.S. Air Force averaged between 228 and 252 hours of flight time in their aircraft. Chinese pilots, on the other hand, saw between 100 and 110. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *China’s defense apparatus doesn’t just spend less per soldier on pay and benefits, they also spend significantly less on training their troops. The Chinese military’s rapid expansion and modernization efforts in recent years are certainly expensive, but somehow, China claims to devote less than a third of America’s defense budg... read more
Was the F-117 Truly a Stealth Fighter?
*Alex Hollings* *F-117, * In order to engage Soviet AWACs, this “stealth fighter” would have to open its weapons bay doors to fire an internal payload of Sidewinder missiles. Once those doors opened, however, the Nighthawk’s stealth would be compromised. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *Believe it or not, Lockheed *did* have plans for an F-117 that really *would have been* a stealth fighter, but they didn’t offer it to the Air Force. The Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk, often referred to as the “stealth fighter,” was the world’s first operational stealth aircraft, born out of a pro... read more

Russia's Su-57s Might be Able to Destroy American F-22 Raptors
*Peter Suciu* *Su-57, * Russia's SU-57 can destroy all types of air, ground, and water-based targets. So why not the F-22? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Su-57 Felon first took to the skies in January 2010, where it has been shown to combine the functions of an attack plane and a fighter jet. The fifth-generation single-seat, twin-engine aircraft was designed for air superiority and attack operations. It also can destroy a wide array of targets, including other aircraft.

No supply chain problems for fentanyl
Biden has no problem with supply chain for fentanyl. In fact, his open border policy encourages it. "The emergence of fentanyl began nearly a decade ago. U.S. Customs and Border Protection , the federal agency responsible for safeguarding the country’s borders, initially reported seizing fentanyl in 2013, when just 2 pounds were found. In that time, suppliers have surged enormous amounts into the country. While federal agencies are making record-high seizures, exorbitant amounts are making it past them, as evidenced by the rise in fentanyl-caused overdose deaths. The 11,200 poun... read more

China Is Building Out Its Fleet of Ballistic Missile Subs
*David Axe* *Ballistic Missile Submarines, China* China must build only as many SSBNs as it truly needs in order to maintain a credible at-sea deterrence. Four or five Type 094s could be enough for one boat to be on patrol at all times. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *China's newer Type 094 class of SSBNs, each armed with a dozen, longer-range JL-2 nuclear-tipped missiles, began to enter service around 2006. China for decades has struggled to develop nuclear ballistic-missile submarines. The country finally might be on the cusp of deploying reliable boomers. An effective Ch... read more
