 America’s Enemies on Notice as DARPA Unveils Massive ‘Manta Ray’ Uncrewed Underwater Vehicle
Story by George C. Upper III • 13h


The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency announced last week the successful completion of a number of tests of a new drone prototype that might just change sea warfare as we know it.

Called the Manta Ray because of its shape, the uncrewed underwater vehicle is currently under development by DARPA and Northrop Grumman.
 
On May 1, DARPA said the prototype of the new UUV completed "full-scale, in-water testing off the coast of Southern California in February and March 2024."

"Testing demonstrated at-sea hydrodynamic performance, including submerged operations using all the vehicle’s modes of propulsion and steering: buoyancy, propellers, and control surfaces," the agency announced.

On advantage touted by the agency is the fact that the prototype was built in Maryland but shipped "in subsections" to the testing area on the other side of the country.

That is what I want, a doctor who was unqualified to be in medical school to begin with, and pushed through with sub-par grades to meet a quota so I can virtue signal that I agree with the program. *****rollingeyes*****

Medical Schools Promoting DEI Suffer Major Blow
© Provided by State Of The Union

Senators John Kennedy and Eric Schmitt introduced the EDUCATE Act, which would eliminate federal funding for medical schools that implement diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in admissions or instruction in a way that could discriminate against students or promote certain ideological beliefs.
 
The bill aims to prevent schools from giving preferential treatment based on race in admissions or establishing DEI offices.

“Woke universities are forcing America’s future doctors to care more about race and gender than saving lives,” Kennedy said. “The EDUCATE Act would make sure taxpayer dollars don’t fund medical schools that discriminate against talented students or peddle progressive nonsense at the expense of science.

Biden administration preparing to hand out 10K migrant ID cards in several US cities: report
Story by Victor Nava • 8h •


Reality is we're never going to solve the immigration issue

NY Rep. Suozzi, Pa. Rep. Fitzpatrick urge Biden to end asylum abuses and ‘bring order to the border’: ‘Americans want action’

The Biden administration hopes to dispense thousands of ID cards to migrants in the coming weeks as part of an effort to update the documentation that US government agencies provide illegal border-crossers.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement is planning on a “limited rollout” of its Secure Docket Card program this summer that would see roughly 10,000 ID cards distributed to migrants in as many as four US cities, according to Fox News.
 
Two potential locations are Houston and Atlanta, a source told the outlet.

The program aims to “modernize documentation provided to some noncitizens,” according to ICE, which notes that the cards are only intended for use by Department of Homeland Security agencies — such as ICE, Customs and Border Protection and Citizenship and Immigration Services.
 
“While the specifics of the card and pilot are under development, it is important to note the secure card will not be an official form of federal identification,” ICE told Fox News.

Elections 2024 / Re: Trump asks Big Oil for $1B in campaign cash

You don't know shit about Big Oil.
2020? Go back and look at crude prices, supply, demand. Down, up, down, respectively. All that COVID stuff had a huge effect. Then Biden started his War on Oil and Gas...

I wouldn't vote for Pence regardless.
