[Daily Caller] National Harbor, Maryland — President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador told the Daily Caller News Foundation on Thursday that the United States needs to incarcerate criminals to stop the rise in violent crime, akin to his policies.
Bukele, who recently won reelection in a landslide with over 84% of the vote, was visiting the United States to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), a gathering of American and international conservative figures in the Washington, D.C., area. Bukele spoke with the DCNF backstage after delivering a keynote address that targeted left-wing and globalist ideologies as well as implored the world to follow his example of crime reduction.

"Incarcerate the criminals," Bukele told the DCNF in response to a question about how the U.S. should reduce homicide rates in major cities. Bukele has pursued a policy of mass incarceration of gang members, which has been criticized by human rights observers but has led to a dramatic reduction in crime rates across the country, with the murder rate dropping by 70% in 2023.

Notice what both Hamas and Hizbollah attck civilian targets while having no defences - except human shields. So, to win a low tech war, you just have to ignore the "humanitarian" snakes on the left.

Well, D'oh! 'Low-Tech War' is fought with masses of rifle carrying troops on the ground. 'Hi-Tech War' is based around blowing up things ...totally different animals.
[FirstPost]] History repeats? Why Chinese companies are establishing private armies.
China appears to be going back to its old ways. Its companies are reportedly setting up volunteer armies, something which was more common in the 1970s. Several of the country’s state-owned enterprises and a private firm have established in-house fighting forces over the last year.
Such private military units were a legacy of the Mao Zedong era , according to a report in Financial Times (FT). But why are they back? We take a look.
WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT CHINA’S PRIVATE ARMIES?
The private units are known as the People’s Armed Forces (PAF). They are made up of civilians who continue their regular jobs and act as a reserve force to China’s military, the largest in the world.
The People’s Armed Forces are expected to be available for missions like support during wartime, operations during national disasters and helping maintain social order, according to a report by CNN. Another report by FT says that these private armies carry out civil defence activities and contribute to military recruitment, promotion and training.
[Washington Examiner] NATIONAL HARBOR, Maryland — House GOP Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY) offered a stark warning to attendees at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday, claiming Democrats would use former President Donald Trump’s legal challenges to "steal the next election."
"The closer President Trump gets to victory, the dirtier the Democrats, their stenographers in the media, and the corrupt prosecutors will get," Stefanik said in her prepared remarks. "They will stop at nothing, and I mean nothing in their attempt to steal this next election."
Stefanik has long been one of Trump’s staunchest supporters within the halls of Congress and has played an active role in protecting Trump as he faces legal troubles in states such as New York and Georgia. Stefanik has submitted several judicial complaints in Trump’s civil fraud case in New York, accusing the judge of displaying "biased misconduct" and engaging in "election interference."
Stefanik specifically referenced Trump’s case in New York in her remarks, hitting out against the state Attorney General Letitia James, who filed a lawsuit against the former president, accusing his family business and his sons of manipulating financial statements and assets to defraud banks and insurers.
Stefanik also pointed to a current Supreme Court challenge in Colorado to remove Trump from the 2024 ballot, accusing the "radical far Left" of "destroying democracy."

I think it was Sun Tsu in The Art of War who said you must know your enemy. Maybe the Republicans are finally learning. Maybe not. They sure didn't have a clue in 2020. They didn't even know what hit them.

Republicans should look very carefully into this matter concering the Democrat stenographers. Watch the cockroaches scurry for cover when a light is shone upon it. But then, if Ms. Herridge was smart, she'd have copies of all those documents in a safe place beyond the reach of CBS bigwigs.
[DailyDot] Skeptics are stating it is Highly unlikely, that the recent Solar Flares were the real cause of the widely reported cellular network focused outages.
Questions being asked:
Why just the Cell Phone system and not Sat Phones, GPS Sat devices, Sat TV, Power Grid disruption like happened in Canada years ago, Broadcast TV and dozens of other types of devices?
Why just the backbone of USA's 9-1-1 and alert notification system?
Some Additional Info:
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association's Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a statement that the outage affecting thousands of AT&T and Verizon customers in the U.S. is most likely not related to the 2 recent X-level Solar Flares.
Questions:
1. Was the US Cell Phone Network System hacked or prepped for another event?
2. Could the Biden Regime and or the WEF be involved?
3. Who did it and why the deflective coverup?
Recognized Solar Weather and Solar Flare experts at SPACEWEATHERLIVE
clearly report"...the solar flares took place during the night in North America, which means the solar flares did not affect the ionosphere here at any point, so how would the cell phone outages become connected? .... There are indirect ways a solar flare could cause issues with cell phones, but ..., none of which took place during the outages."
#6
Well, AT&T did announce it was due to a faulty software upgrade. Marketing about "Our network" from each of the carriers notwithstanding, It's one big mosh and a problem at one could well have leaked over.
OTOH, it's nearly impossible to believe anything any corporate entity says anymore, nor the media outlets they say it through.

"Lie, Cheat, Steal", is there any companies or business that doesn't do any of the three?
