Today, we released a new paper on the urgent risks of politicizing the U.S. military. Our armed forces have remained apolitical, professional, and subordinate to civilian authority for over two centuries. That norm is under strain—and requires renewed attention. counteveryhero.org/letter_docum...

Today in history, 1953: Jackie Cochran becomes the first woman to break the sound barrier, flying an F-86 Sabre borrowed from the Royal Canadian Air Force. At her death in 1980, Cochran held more speed and distance records than any pilot — male or female.

Congressman Bera, in the hearing on Global Threats, panders to the witnesses who have not expressed any remorse or outrage regarding Signalgate. He appears to be under the delusion that members of the administration will act in good faith.

Wisconsin voters:

Elon wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court election. Vote for Susan Crawford instead. $100 isn’t worth what it was a year

Pay attention to Oklahoma.

Bibles in classrooms isn't the big story.

The same legal teams behind the seeding of Dobbs are driving a case to create religious schools fully funded by the public & they've already petitioned the Supreme Court.

Understandably, everyone was focused on the election.
