What to Expect From the US Military Post-Election
[American Liberty] After election wins, the number of vets in Congress is going up. The number of veterans elected to Congress will increase next session, only the third time that has happened in the past five decades.

How will the midterms affect the military? The Nov. 8 elections could herald substantive changes for the military — find out what a shift in power might mean for you.

’Step away from the uniform’ — Army Reserve chief reminds soldiers of rules for political campaigns. "Does it have camouflage and your name on it? Does it have your rank on it? Then you can’t be wearing it."

#1  ’Step away from the uniform’ — Army Reserve chief reminds soldiers of rules for political campaigns. "Does it have camouflage and your name on it? Does it have your rank on it? Then you can’t be wearing it."

...I will, however, bet my retired pay that anybody in uniform who demonstrates for an Approved Cause(TM) won't hear a freaking word....

#2  /\ But somehow smarmy politicians using US Servicemen and Women as political props is not a problem.

#4  These rules have actually been in place for a long time. I retired from the Naval Reserve in 1994. I knew it even then
I don't know if it was actually enforced even then.

#5  It was only enforced if you went for the wrong party.

Home Front: Politix
Surber: After the election, the truth emerges
The day after the election, CNBC reported, "The job cuts in tech land are piling up, as companies that led the 10-year stock bull market adapt to a new reality.

"Days after Twitter’s new boss Elon Musk slashed half his company’s workforce, Facebook parent Meta announced its most significant round of layoffs ever. Meta said on Wednesday that it’s eliminating 13% of its staff, which amounts to more than 11,000 employees."

The announcement came after the election because Democrats and the deep-state own Zuckerberg, whom they blamed for Hilary's crash and burn in 2016. Zuck made the mistake of believing in free speech and in selling ads to The Donald.

4 years later, he was paying millions to secretaries of state to finance the ballot harvesting that saw voter participation soar from 56% in 2016 to 67% in 2020.

That was the highest percentage since women got the vote in 1920.

The previous high was 61%.

THAT was the steal. I told Republicans to learn to ballot harvest. They didn't. The rules changed and Republicans failed to adapt.

Zuck ain't the only one toeing the line.

Just the News reported, "Real estate company Redfin this week became the latest major American corporation to announce both major layoffs and a contraction of its own business operations, further signs of turmoil in an economy increasingly marked by signs of recession.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
There Can Be No Negotiated Peace With the Palestinians
[AFNN] For a devout Catholic, it’s the (too short) trip of a lifetime. My older daughter, an Army Reservist currently deployed to the Middle East, has a four-day out-of-country pass, and I’m meeting her in Jerusalem. I told a couple of my fellow parishioners that I’d miss Mass next Sunday, but that actually means I’ll miss Mass at my home parish; my plan is to attend Mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre!

That only brought my attention more to this article which appeared on my feed this morning, in which the activists said the quiet part out loud.

‘Defeating Israel means defeating the US,’ Canada, EU -Brussels activists

Defeating Israel is part of a process to defeating the United States of America, the European Union and Canada, the leader of a Palestinian protest in Brussels declared in new footage released on Thursday by the NGO Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network.

I have said it before: Israel faced two logical choices at the end of the Six Day War in 1967:

#1  The Israeli Jews are showing now that they very much understand that there can be no negotiated peace with the Arabs, at least not with the "Palestinians" as they are now.

Kind of like the Dems and Pubs in the U.S. Things were fairly stable in the mideast under Trump policies.
