Pentagon official resigns, sounds alarm about US losing technological edge
Bailee Hill - Yesterday 7:46 AM

Atop Pentagon official is stepping down, warning Tuesday the United States is falling behind and could lose its technological edge to adversaries like China.

Preston Dunlap, the chief architect for the Space Force, argued the military used to excel in areas like artificial intelligence on "Fox & Friends First," but the commercial sector is now surpassing the defense community. He said this is ultimately providing an opportunity to U.S. adversaries.


"These are accessible to anyone with resources and academics and capabilities, and so our adversaries or potential adversaries are able to have access to that technology, not only inside their own economies, but because of the benefit of our free and open society, which is a great thing," Dunlap told co-host Todd Piro.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Considering the Chinese select and likely groom students in STEM, and in America we're "teaching" math with woke questions, there is no reason to be surprised. Add in that the Chinese have student spies in all the major University research programs or with access to them, and the only thing to be shocked about is how much we give away  to our potential enemies.

Even in the Congress, there are those who are severely compromised, along with the executive branch.
We have generals on the phone telling the Chinese they will give them 30 minutes warning (that's the spool up and flight time for a Minuteman missile, so that warning would have to come with the launch command).
That ain't no way to run an airline, folks.

We seriously need to clean house and get rid of the Fifth Column.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
