If anyone is interested, Navy Divers also made the news for something positive yesterday. Good read. [Hidden Content]

Haven't they already had a change of regime? Besides, that rarely works. Look at what happened in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.

Been mowing on this beautiful morning by the Bay. Just saw this post. Not sure which questions you want me to try to address. So, I’ll touch both best I can. Supertankers are coming to the U.S. because the Gulf facilities are operating at a capacity they can process, and still have enough to export—for a substantial profit I might say. Of course, this is a double-edged sword for us. Since a better price can be paid by foreign customers in a global market, we wind up paying a higher price at the pump when it’s all said and done. The only way to stop that would be to regulate how much U.S. companies can sell outside the U.S., and that would be a very bad idea for multiple reasons. The Panama Canal is now back in Panama & U.S. control instead of China, so passage to the Asian/Pacific region is actually safer for insurers. But, the total time will increase as supertankers have to be transloaded from U.S. facilities. You will also need smaller vessels with shallower drafts to reach most of the U.S. offloading facilities to then transport to the transloading stations to load the supertankers. In other words, a multi-stage process. As far as the Strait being cleared, I have no direct knowledge. But, as I described in an earlier post, Navy Divers are the EOD experts for all U.S. military activities. They are the unsung heroes that—many times—accompany our more known SpecOps groups as they are the experts on anything to do with underwater activities. If a mission requires any type of diving, an ND will be involved, and possibly accompany the Teams during the mission. Clearing the Strait will not involve SpecOps as most think of them. (No Seal Teams, or their counterparts.) It will strictly be handled by Navy Dive Teams, and their support groups. Navy Divers are a very specialized part of Special Ops. ND’s physical and tactical training is second only to the SEAL Teams in the Navy, and is actually tougher from the water related activities as that is the focus. ND’s are a proud group. Very few have the cajones to disable explosives in conditions that are somewhat less than ideal. Think of some of the recent movies you’ve seen with EOD personnel on land. Now, think of being underwater, with—sometimes—limited visibility, heavy currents, and various sea life interfering while diagnosing and disposing of an unknown explosive device. Add in possibly having to do this without being known. Jumping out of perfectly good helicopters 40/40 and naked doesn’t sound too bad at all after that. 😉 **NOTE- So I don’t get flagged for saying ‘naked’, 40/40 and naked means jumping from a helo that’s speed is 40 mph, at 40 feet, with no chute, into the water. Quick entry. 😂🤣

[Hidden Content] flip-flip dog? I don’t remember your outrage with the uber-Christian Secretary of War admitting to paying settlements to women he’d drugged and raped.

Even the mighty Yankees have lost 3 in a row. Lol. I have no answer for our pitching. Imai has control problems. Javier, even though he is injured, has not had a stellar year so far. I’m always ready to get behind my team and go along for the ride. Even when we’re losing, I’d rather watch baseball than just about anything else tv has to offer.

Flip flop dem… [Hidden Content]

Houston is 6-8, not 9-10. Astros still lead MLB in runs scored (85) but also lead MLB in most runs given up (87). Houston is either first or second in every offensive category. Astros average 6 runs a game. Only the Dodgers average more runs per game (6.34) Astros are dead last in just about every pitching statistic. Have an MLB worse 6.32 ERA.

[Hidden Content] Does this help the US? Oldawg gave a explanation but this went over my head. Trump posted on his truth social. It would lead one to believe relief is on the way. Sadly, I know oldawg will tell me the truth about what trump won't say.

[Hidden Content] Does not mean he will loose the senate.

Should get interesting.......

“Don’t”. One word, pretty straightforward. Lmao. She would follow through with as great an effort as she put forth towards border security. That’s a great dem right there. All talk.

I am interested to see what proof that our government has that shows they didn’t completely obliterate Irans Nuclear weapons capabilities last summer which made us go back to obliterate more.

Looking at the world through the eyes of a 5 year old. Your oversimplification amazes me. Trump is not even close to being a Nazi. Your lack of Knowledge is exposed. However, the dems love them some blm, Sanders, AOC, Mamdani, Spanberger, the list goes on. Anyone backed by Soros, especially judges….These are admitted communists. Some will defend by calling them socialists, but the socialist will back the communists, so what’s the difference? As for the democrats calling out their own…..Swalwell is/was a gubernatorial candidate in California. Please look up the history of California politics and the connections…..Pelosi, Newsom, Getty, Feinstein, Brown…these families have ruled Cal. politics for decades. Swalwell would be considered an “outsider” so he is expendable. I have not convicted him of sexual assault, simply reported it. Funny how that ruffled your feathers. Knowing his relationship with a known communist spy, and he is still holding office, is all I need to know about democrats.

Astros Friends, I'm afraid our Astros may have a long and ugly season in 2026. After last night's 9-6 loss @ Seattle, our beloved Astros are 9-10 on the year and struggling with a five game losing streak. Ouch! Our starting pitching is hurt (Brown), or has too small of a sample size to say if they are good or bad (LJM), or they are not very good (the rest of the group). I've got my unwashed 2022 Altuve jersey out of the closet (I last wore it for game six of the 2022 World Series vs. Philly), my rabbit's foot out, and my rally cap on. Time to break the five game losing streak and get on a five or six game winning streak (fingers crossed). 143 games left! Time to go 143-0. GO ASTROS!!!

You'll get there. Lol 🌊🌊🌊

No….just waiting to win BIGLY! Also waiting for the Golden Era to hit the average American.

People convicted of fraud and financial crimes who can relate and have a lot in common with the con man received clemency from him: Jasom Galin- $60 m+ securities fraud tied to tribal bond scheme Carlos Watson 60m+ invester and lender fraud Trevor Milton 20m+ investor losses from securities fraud Todd and Julie Chrisley 30m+ bank fraud and tax scheme Devon Archer 60m+ bond fraud scheme involving native American tribe George Santos $500k- $1m+ campaign violation, FRAUD! Scott Jenkins tens of thousands in bribes corruption schemes Paul Walczak 10m+ payroll tax fraud Adriana Camberos- multi-million counterfeit and FRAUD operations Chanpeng Zhao- 4.38B settlement tied to anti money laundering *Juan Hetnandez* 400 tons of cocaine!! Trump! Game recognize Game Absolutely illegal with many victims like the Epstein victims.

This^^^^^

At least the dems are calling out their own. [Hidden Content]

Calling Republicans Nazis=bad Calling Democrats Communists =okay Trump proven to rape women=no problem, if she’s not my wife or daughter…has my vote. Swalwell simply accused of rape= This man should be in PRISON!

Bit of a long red but interesting. From Dr. Deepessh Divaakaran (Dr. DD) on X: "The war did not pause because peace arrived. It paused because something was taken. Something heavy. Something radioactive. Something the headlines will never name. Iran roared for weeks. It said it would fight to the last drop of blood. Then suddenly... Ceasefire. Just like that. Experts rushed in. China did it. Pakistan did it. America blackmailed Iran. Cute theories. But they all missed the real scene. The real story began in the sky. April 3, 2026. An F-15E Strike Eagle. Call sign: Dude 44. Shot down over southwestern Iran. Iran celebrated. Loudly. Publicly. Confidently. But ask yourself this. For 30+ days, America and Israel had been flying sorties over Iran. They destroyed 13000+ infra inside Iran. So why was this specific F-15E flying exactly, where it could be hit? That was Phase 1. Now go back to the war room. Mid-March 2026. CIA and Mossad had confirmed something dangerous. Iran had 900+ kg of uranium enriched to 60%. Enough for around 10 to 11 warheads. And nearly 400 kg of it was being moved. From beneath Isfahan. From deep tunnels. To an unknown new location. That changed everything. Because no bunker buster could solve that problem. The tunnels under Isfahan had no ventilation shafts. Which means only one thing. If you want it... you go in and take it. Boots on the ground. So, America created a trigger. Two pilots go down. One a decorated Colonel. One an elite fighter pilot. And Phase 2 begins. 155 aircraft entered Iranian airspace. 4 bombers. 64 fighters. 48 refuelling tankers. 13 rescue aircraft. Dozens of drones. And 2 MC-130J cargo planes. Now pause there. Each MC-130J can carry 92 armed troops. Or heavy equipment. Or sealed canisters. Or all three. And not just that. They built a temporary airstrip. Inside Iran. In southern Isfahan province. Now ask the obvious question. Since when does a pilot rescue need a runway? Since when do you send that much firepower to pull out two men? Since when do you reportedly embed nuclear specialists in a rescue team? There were 150+ special operators involved. Let us be serious. You do not need 150 operators for two pilots. That force size fits only one thing. A retrieval. For nearly 50 hours, Iran and America fought. 339 munitions fired. Roads were bombed. Convoys. Helicopters. Aircraft. C-130s. And somewhere in that smoke. In that sand. In that mountain shadow... Something changed. Not the pilots. Something heavier. Something more valuable. You know what it was? Not all. But enough. Enough to change the negotiation. Enough to turn “fight till death” into “let’s talk ceasefire.” Read that again. A nation that swore it would bleed forever... Suddenly chose the table. Why? Because it understood the message. We came in. We took something. We left some materials behind. And we can come again. The war is now paused. Not over. The uranium question is not solved. Iran still has what remains. America and Israel now knows where the rest is." Thoughts?!
