Twenty one years across military and government service and I’ve never, ever once seen this level of incompetence, unseriousness and stupidity. We’re truly in an amazing era.
The FAA has now abruptly reversed course and says the air space closure over El Paso has been lifted.

This can be read as the Pentagon refusing to deconflict airspace, so the FAA arguably is doing the right thing, though others who are more expert on this should weigh in. cc @faineg.bsky.social

Correct
If they shut down a major US city’s airspace for TEN DAYS to deal with some COTS drones carrying bags of drugs, it’s going to be one of the dumbest fucking own-goals imaginable. Which, ironically, makes this completely plausible.

“Airline sources told Reuters the grounding of flights was believed to be tied to the Pentagon's use of counterdrone technology to address Mexican drug cartels' use of drones of the U.S.-Mexico border.”

I’ll say this much: if there WAS a significant, credible threat to NatSec, I find it next to impossible a WARNO didn’t go out to US military personnel. Like that would be so fucking weird I can’t fathom it. And yet they got nothing.
So yeah. I dunno.

Sounds like the military also had no warning about El Paso’s airspace. That’s….unusual. Also probably rules out a strike on Mexican territory.

The FAA is closing the airspace around El Paso International Airport in Texas for 10 days, grounding all flights to and from the airport, for “special security reasons."
The FAA's notice did not provide additional details.

NEW ORLEANS — The Louisiana National Guard confirmed Monday that one of its soldiers left an assault rifle in a Bourbon Street bathroom while on patrol in the New Orleans French Quarter.

There are multiple concerns when dealing with someone accessing TS/SCI material who doesn't understand it. Compromising numerous collection platforms is one. Another big concern here is using material the public won't be able to reference to peddle bullshit without any context.
I’m guessing the downside is exposing the methods and sources that will be revealed in those reports?
