Israel struck a Russian airbase in Syria.

The target was a weapons depot at Khmeimim Air Base, moments after an Iranian plane unloaded arms for Hezbollah.

On September 21, The Wall Street Journal revealed that Jill Stein paid $100,000 to Trent Pool, a MAGA operative who participated in the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6. This builds on previous reporting that exposed ties between Stein and other Trump-affiliated operatives, including Jay Sekulow, the attorney who represented Trump during his first impeachment trial, and Michael D. Dean, who worked on behalf of Trump to overturn the 2020 election.

@catlynne333 Sounds about right. I live in Tennessee. Psychos run the government, so don't expect much.

109 troops were diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury when Iran targeted troops during his Presidency.

Trump dismissed their injuries yesterday as "headaches".

@LnzyHou I was usually one of the few white teenagers doing field work during the Summer.

My parents generation did that work as kids and their parents--who came to California during the Dust Bowl--did that work as adults, Californians didn't like them "invading" either, Called them shiftless Southerners.

Whoever does that work gets shit on.

@LnzyHou Hell, are you crazy? I went to work in the oilfields for $15/hr, but then the price of oil dropped to $30/barrel, contractors went out of business, and wages dropped to $6/hr, so I enrolled in college eventually and pursued one of my passions at the time: computers.

Talk about overly ambitious.

Why does this matter?

It matters because not only is it very inefficient when this happens (and boy does it happen), but it is demoralizing to those working on those projects.

This is exactly what I hated most about working on defense contracts.

The thing I never understand about defense budgets....

OK, so we gotta set priorities, and they are cutting budgets. The F/A-XX is the code name for the next gent carrier-based fighter that is supposed to replace the F-18.

So the budget for the program was 453+ million dollars to begin design phase, and it was cut to 53 million dollars. What does this mean? It means that not much is getting done and most contractors will be sitting around getting paid to do very little.

Defense

In a new draft of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for the 2025 Fiscal Year, the Senate Armed Service Committee wants to slash the authorized spending amount on the F/A-XX to just $53.828 million (the reason for this very specific dollar amount is unclear). This is a drastic reduction in development funds for the F/A-XX program. The NDAA line item reads (in thousands of dollars), "Next Generation Fighter (aka F/A-XX) $453,828 - $53,828 Program decrease $400,000."
