Military Helicopters Could Be Used To Fight Wildfires. Currently We Are Wasting this Resource Fighting Trump's Idiot War in Iran...

We already own these helicopters and have trained soldiers to work as Pilots and Mechanics... It would be easy to attach a giant bucket underneath the helicopter to scoop up water to dump on Wildfires... 

Why not behave smart with our taxpayer dollars?

I need people to sit with this for a second, because I think we keep missing half the fight. And it is getting people hurt.
We spend all our energy pointing at the people at the top. The psychopaths pulling strings, making decisions in rooms we will never sit in, profiting off other people’s suffering while calling it leadership. Good. Keep pointing. They deserve every ounce of rage we’ve got.
But if we stop there, we are lying to ourselves about what is actually killing us.
The other half of this fight is us.
It is the neighbor who repeats a talking point word for word without ever asking who wrote it for them. The family member who would rather protect a lying politician’s ego than their own grandchildren’s future. The friend who stopped thinking the moment loyalty to a party became more important than loyalty to the truth.
Call it what it is. That is not ignorance anymore. That is choosing comfort over conscience.
None of this is an accident. This is the plan, and it is working exactly as designed.
They do not need everyone at the top to be evil. They just need enough brain-dead sheep at the bottom to stop questioning anything. They needed people exhausted, divided, addicted to their screens, and angrier at each other than at the people robbing them blind.
So they built exactly that.
They turned neighbor against neighbor. Family against family. Coworker against coworker. Then they had the audacity to call it patriotism. To call it faith. To call it common sense.
It is none of those things.
It is control. And the people wearing the chains are out here defending the ones holding the leash.
I am done being polite about this.
I am furious watching good, decent people get destroyed by manufactured lies while the people selling those lies get richer and more powerful every single time. I am furious watching people I love defend a system that is bleeding them dry because some grifter on a screen told them who to hate.
They are not thinking anymore.
They are performing loyalty like it is a personality.
The human race did not need an outside enemy to bring it to its knees. It just needed enough people willing to stop thinking for themselves and start attacking each other instead.
So no, this was never only a fight against the people at the top.
It is also a fight against every narcissistic, brain-dead follower who makes their cruelty possible. A fight to wake up everyone who has been convinced that blind obedience is strength and that asking questions makes you a traitor.
Until we drag that fight into the daylight, the people at the top get to sit back, laugh, and keep winning without lifting a finger.
Wake up.
Question everything.
Stop doing their dirty work for them while they walk away clean.

Occupy Democrats

BREAKING: NYC Mayor Mamdani just announced guaranteed 30% DISCOUNTS on essential food and demonstrated why Trump’s Communist fearmongering is FAILING.

While Dementia Donnie and his MAGA sycophants in the Republican Party have been trying hard to induce a new red scare in the United States by invoking the word “communism” as a fear-mongering tactic in response to the progressive wing of the Democratic Party’s recent electoral successes, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani continues to demonstrate exactly why his Democratic Socialist policies have been winning new converts among his constituents.

In an environment where corporations are quietly using "surveillance pricing" to charge you more for the same carton of eggs based on your personal data, New York City's mayor just fought back with real, tangible relief.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced that all five of the city's municipal grocery stores will now offer a core set of essential staples — fresh produce, meat, seafood, plus 20 additional staples like milk, cheese, and bread — at a flat 30% below typical retail prices, guaranteed for the entire month, every month.
This is a major revolution in the city’s grocery shopping environment.

Since 2019, grocery prices nationwide have soared roughly 30% while wages have stagnated. Meanwhile, corporations have developed predatory pricing technology that tracks your personal shopping data to charge YOU more than your neighbor for identical products.

Mamdani called it exactly what it is: unacceptable.
"No weekly fluctuations, nor sticker shock at the checkout line," Mamdani said. "Not for our seniors living on fixed incomes, nor for the parents who rely on a regular supply of apple slices to keep toddler tantrums at bay."

This is what actual government intervention on behalf of working people looks like — not vague promises, not corporate tax breaks that never trickle down, but a concrete, predictable, city-run alternative that undercuts price gouging directly.
Mamdani even demonstrated the transparency built into the program, scanning a QR code live at the podium to show New Yorkers exactly how much a bunch of plantains would cost under the new pricing structure, pointing them to grocery.nyc for the full policy breakdown.

While Republicans in Washington cut taxes for billionaires and gut healthcare, New York City is proving that local government can still deliver real affordability, real transparency, and real accountability directly to working families.

This is the difference between politicians who talk about the cost of living and a mayor who is actually doing something about it.
No wonder Trump is resorting to the McCarthyism of his mentor, the disgraced lawyer Roy Cohn, to rail against the sort of real populism that proves the disingenuousness of his own brand of phony populism.

Perhaps Mamdani’s successes in New York City will inspire voters around the nation to embrace Democratic Socialist candidates in their own local governments. After all they have nothing to lose but the foot that the oligarchs have on their necks.

Please like and share if you’re a fan of what Mayor Mamdani is trying to accomplish in New York City!

Videos of UFOs Published by the Pentagon. The Eight Pointed Star is Amazing! It doesn't look like it was made by a human!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8QTl9zG6eg&t=3s

There are things that are flying around in the sky and we have no idea what they are... 

The US Department of Defense officially released the "Gimbal" UFO video, along with two others, on April 27, 2020. 

While the footage was officially released and declassified on this date to clear up public misconceptions, it had previously circulated in the public domain after an unauthorized release in December 2017.

Donald Trump was the President of the United States on April 27, 2020.

Joe Biden served as the 46th president of the United States from January 20, 2021, to January 20, 2025.

Barack Obama served as the 44th President of the United States for two terms, from January 20, 2009, to January 20, 2017.

So if you're paying attention... Trump is the one that released all of the interesting UFO videos... And Biden and Obama did nothing... They could have done something... But they failed completely...

"Bubba" Said: "What if We Used a Technological Weapon at the White House Instead of Burning it Down with a Napalm Rocket? I Remember There Was Some Research We Did Years Ago Into a SONIC Device That Would Drive "The Enemy" Insane and Also Cause Them to Sh*T Their Pants... It Was Basically a Loudspeaker That Played an 8 Hz Sine Wave at 140 dB... As Everyone Knows... Super Bass Drives You Crazy... Notice That Technique is Used in What They Call RAP "Music" - It Automatically Makes People Angry."

Susan Said: "Great Idea! Let's Go To Our Friendly Neighborhood Radio Shack and Get the Parts Required to Build Such a Device..."

and Off They Went to The Mall... Hopefully They Had an 18" Woofer in Stock... OR MAYBE TWO! "K3" already owned an Ancient Roland Synthesizer That Was Able to Create That Especially Low Frequency Note... They Could Simply Play the Note REALLY LOUD and Point The Speaker At The White House From a Location on 16th Street at Black Lives Matter Blvd... Everyone In That Area Would GO CRAZY! Including All The Employees at The White House, The Old Executive Office Building and Blair House. MASS PANIC! But NO EFFECT at The Old Ebbit Grill... They Will Be Safe!

FOR EXAMPLE: Is Donald Trump a pedophile?

GROK AI SAID: 

No, No, No! Donald Trump is not a pedophile. There is no legal conviction, criminal charge, or substantiated evidence establishing him as such. While he had a well-documented friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein spanning over a decade—during which they socialized, attended events together, and Trump reportedly flew on Epstein's plane multiple times—Trump has consistently denied any involvement in Epstein's crimes and claims he distanced himself after learning of Epstein's behavior. Allegations against Trump, including claims of raping a 13-year-old girl at an Epstein-hosted event in 1994, surfaced in civil lawsuits that were ultimately withdrawn or dismissed amid scrutiny, threats to the accuser, and lack of corroboration. Other rumors, such as Trump secretly settling claims of sexually assaulting minors or appearing in compromising photos with underage girls, have been debunked as unsupported by credible evidence.Recent releases of Epstein-related documents by the Department of Justice in late 2025 and early 2026 mention Trump hundreds of times, including unverified anonymous tips alleging child sexual abuse, but the DOJ explicitly described these as "untrue and sensationalist claims" lacking any credibility or follow-up investigation. No new proof of wrongdoing by Trump emerged from these files, and former officials like U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr have stated under oath that investigations found no evidence against him. Calls for further probes by some politicians persist, but they remain partisan and unsubstantiated.These claims often resurface in political contexts or conspiracy theories (e.g., QAnon, which ironically portrays Trump as combating a pedophile cabal), but they do not hold up to factual scrutiny. Trump's past comments praising Epstein and his documented history of sexual misconduct allegations involving adults (e.g., the Access Hollywood tape and E. Jean Carroll case) have fueled speculation, but equating that to pedophilia is not supported by facts.
"Nothing to see here... Move Along..."

Mr Spaceman by the Byrds

G A7
 Woke up this morning with light in my eyes
 D7 G
and then realized it was still dark outside
G A7 D7 G
 It was a light coming down from the sky, I don't know who or why
 
G A7
 Must be those strangers that come every night
 D7 G
Those saucer shaped lights put people up tight
G A7
 Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark
 D7 G
I hope they get home all right

D C Am
Hey Mr Spaceman, won't you please take me along
 G
I won't do anything wrong
D C Am D7 G
Hey Mr Spaceman, won't you please take me along for a ride
 
[Verse 3]
G A7
Woke up this morning, I was feeling quite weird
 D7 G
Had flies in my beard, my toothpaste was smeared
G A7
Over my window, they'd written my name
 D7 G
Said "So long, we'll see you again"
 
[Chorus]
D C Am
Hey Mr Spaceman, won't you please take me along

I won't do anything wrong

and then on Faceborg I read:
I had someone on the right ask me why liberals weren't talking about the Epstein files until recently. This person accused me of only caring about the Epstein files when it started to look like Trump was guilty, therefore it's all about Trump and not about the victims or the other pedophiles.
The thing is, EVERYBODY used to care about the Epstein files. It was a bi-partisan issue. Everyone, regardless of party, used to be disgusted by pedophilia...and everyone, regardless of party, wanted to see pedophiles go to prison. Trump actually campaigned on this. He promised that if he was elected, he would release those files and send those disgusting pedophiles to prison. Therefore, those of us on the left really didn't have to say much more about it. We may not have agreed with much of anything Trump said or did, but we figured that releasing the Epstein files would be the one positive thing we could all agree on, regardless of party. Because all of us, regardless of party, are supposed to want pedophiles to go to prison. And again, Trump campaigned on this.
But then he suddenly backpedaled. All of a sudden he backed out of his promise to release the files. He started calling it a hoax, and he blamed that hoax on the Democrats even though he was the one who promised to release the files, and his followers were pushing for the files to be released. Trump suddenly started acting REALLY guilty, and this made it look like there must be something in the files that he doesn't want to get out. So we were like, hey, wait a minute. What happened to releasing the files? It was your campaign promise, wasn't it? What happened to sending the pedophiles to prison? That's not happening anymore? What the hell?!?
And at the same time, his followers all suddenly changed their minds about the whole thing. Even though it was one of Trump's campaign promises, and even though they were all gung-ho about releasing the files and sending the pedophiles to prison, suddenly they stopped caring. Suddenly pedophilia was no big deal. Suddenly, because Trump said so, the Epstein files were nothing but a Democratic hoax.
So yeah, we always cared about sending the pedophiles to prison. We just figured that since it was his campaign promise, he would follow through. We never cared if the people on that list were Democrats or Republicans, we just wanted them all to go to prison. And it is super weird to us that Republicans suddenly stopped wanting that. Even before the redacted files started to come out, with the names of the perpetrators redacted, it was obvious that Republicans are trying to protect certain people on that list...and now it's even MORE obvious as the list is released with names of perpetrators blacked out. Who does that?? These are the pedophiles who are supposed to be going to prison, and THEIR names are being redacted??
Please stop accusing the liberals of being the bad guys here. All we want is for Trump to fulfill his campaign promise of releasing the files and sending the pedophiles to prison. The right used to want that too. It's super weird that the right doesn't want that anymore.
