At a race weight of 6.25 tons, the trick Pratt & Whitney R-4360-63 powered T.20 Sea Fury “Dreadnought” is truly the big kid on the air racing block. Built, owned, and flown by the late Frank and sons Brian and Dennis Sanders, this two-seat masterpiece has turned the pylons as fast as 458.9 mph by virtue of the clean, highly detailed airframe and the 3,800 horses that tread within her custom cowling. Dreadnought has won the National Championship Reno Air Races twice, and finished second 13 times. Continue reading “One Second on the Course with Dreadnought”

In a series of statements via the official Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Twitter account, Israel has said it “expresses sorrow” over the deaths of the 15 Russian crew members aboard a maritime surveillance plane that was shot down near the Syrian coastal city of Latakia Monday night.

While expressing regret towards the Russian loss of the aircraft and personnel, which was reportedly downed by mistake as Syrian anti-missile defense systems attempted to respond to a barrage of Israeli rockets and airstrikes from over the Mediterranean coastal area, Israel said that ultimately it is the Syrian military that’s responsible.   Continue reading “Israel “Expresses Sorrow” Over Russian Plane Downing, But Blames Assad And Iran For Incident”

The solar observatory that was dramatically closed down last week has reopened, but they still haven’t really explained what happened despite the release of a lengthy statement.

Who else has a ton of questions about the facility that was closed down abruptly last week by federal agents arriving in Blackhawk helicopters? The Sunspot Solar Observatory has been at the top of Sacramento Peak ever since 1947. It’s in Sunspot, New Mexico, in Otero County. And on Sept. 6 every person there was evicted evacuated by the FBI.  Continue reading “The Solar Observatory That Closed Has Reopened and They Still Haven’t Explained”

The ACLU has admitted that migrant parents in the “family separation” furor are deliberately leaving at least 114 children in the United States, says a court filing by the federal government.

The acknowledged abandonment of the 114 children and youths — plus the de-facto abandonment of up to 232 others — undermines the progressives’ media-magnified claim that President Donald Trump maliciously separated victimized families as they fled from crime into the safety of the United States.   Continue reading “More Migrants Split Their Families to Keep Youths and Children in U.S.”

Amid reports that opioid overdose deaths in New York City have climbed over the past year to fresh record highs, the Senate has passed a sweeping suite of legislation designed to stem the flow of deadly and illicit synthetic opioids like fentanyl into the US via the US Postal Service, while also offering new tools to law enforcement and funding for addiction treatment.

The bill, known as the “Synthetics Trafficking and Overdose Prevention – or STOP – Act“, was passed by a 99-1 vote one month after President Trump declared that the constant flow of fentanyl into the US via illicit labs in China and Mexico was “a form of warfare.”  Continue reading “Senate Passes Sweeping Bill To Combat Opioid Crisis As NYC Overdose Deaths Hit Record High”

A group of over 40 Congress members have sent President Trump a bipartisan letter reminding him that the US Constitution requires that the president seek Congressional approval before taking military action in Syria or elsewhere. Congressman Justin Amash (R-Mich.) announced via Twitter on Monday that the letter had been sent to the White House.

Ironically Rep. Amash made the announcement just as Monday’s evening’s massive Israeli strike on Syria was underway, which resulted in a downed Russian surveillance plane carrying 14 troops amidst the confusion of missiles flying over the Mediterranean as it was hit by Syrian defense attempting to stave off the attack by Israel.   Continue reading “Congress Members Demand Trump Seek Approval Before Military Action In Syria”
