[Gateway Pundit] The FBI has confirmed that the 14-year-old Apalachee High School shooter, Colt Gray, a student at the Georgia school, was known to the agency as early as May 2023 after receiving "several anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting at an unidentified location and time."
This comes after we learned that an unidentified individual also warned the high school via phone that it would be the first of five schools targeted with violence prior to the shooting on Wednesday.
Gray denied making the threats in an interview with the Jackson County Sheriff's Office. Per FBI Atlanta, "Jackson County alerted local schools for continued monitoring of the subject," but no additional action was taken.
The full statement released by FBI Atlanta at 7:49 pm ET on X reads,

Lets be honest here. How do you predict which loudmouth fool will actually become a danger? If the Feebs had jumped on this kid in 2023, half of us would be on their case for prosecuting "thought" crimes because back then that's all it was. Now the shrink(s) who mishandled the Covenant murderess had plenty of info that she was batshit crazy and didn't do anything constructive about it. Maybe instead of the Feebs, the APA should be getting the butt-kicking.

Most states still forbid both professionals and relatives from forcing mental health treatment on anyone aged eighteen or over beyond a three-day hospital stay for evaluation. And even a three-day stay for evaluation generally can’t be forced on an 18+ adult unless the judge agrees the person is an imminent danger to self or others, where imminent danger requires being in the process at that moment of physically attempting murder or suicide.
It is not a crime to be crazy. It is a crime to force them to become sane. Three cheers for the post-One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest era — welcome to Heinlein’s Crazy Years. They look pretty much as predicted, except that we never did get a worldwide single government.
[Breitbart] An illegal alien is now accused of raping a child numerous times on Martha’s Vineyard — the elite island off the coast of Massachusetts where the likes of former President Obama and billionaire Oprah Winfrey are known to vacation during the summer.
Warley Neto, a 24-year-old illegal alien from Brazil, first crossed the United States-Mexico border near Paso Del Norte, Texas, in March 2018.
Just a week later, Neto was given a Notice to Appear (NTA) before a federal immigration judge by Border Patrol and released from Department of Homeland Security (DHS) custody into the U.S. interior.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents issued a detainer against Neto, requesting custody of him, in February 2023 after he was arrested on Martha’s Vineyard and charged with strangulation or suffocation, assault and battery on a family household member, and making threats to commit a crime.
For those charges, Neto was found guilty and sentenced to 364 days in prison. All but 90 days, though, of that sentence were suspended. Neto, likely thanks to Massachusett’s sanctuary state policy, was not turned over to ICE agents.
In January of this year, ICE agents again issued a detainer against Neto after he was arrested by the Tisbury Police Department on Martha’s Vineyard for five counts of child rape and five counts of enticing a minor under 16 years old.
The charges were then elevated to the Dukes County Superior Court, where Neto was indicted. Last month, Neto was turned over to ICE agents after the Dukes County Sheriff’s Office honored the detainer lodged against him.

Release him back into Martha's Vineyard, like what happens in the rest of the world, and arrest anyone who dares say something, like in the rest of the world.
[WRDW] WINDER, Ga. - Hundreds of law enforcement officers have swarmed Apalachee High School in Barrow County after a shooting injured multiple people.
CBS reported it had confirmed through its sources that two people are dead and possibly four more were injured.
Sheriff Jud Smith wouldn’t comment on that during a news conference just after 1 p.m.
He called it a "very active, ever-fluid" situation, with new information emerging minute by minute.
"It’s very early," he said.
He was clear about one thing, though: "An evil thing" happened at the school, he said.
With roads blocked up to a mile away, panicked parents set out on foot running to the school to check on their kids. They were being reunified around 1 p.m., and the sheriff asked the media to respect their privacy.
The sheriff said he plans to give another update around 4 p.m.
The first call came in at 9:30 a.m., Smith said, and officers and medical personnel from multiple agencies were sent.
One suspect was in custody and casualties were reported as of noon, according to the Barrow County Sheriff’s Office. Casualties could mean either injuries or deaths.
Dozens of ambulances and officers were on the ground at the nearly 2,000-student school about 40 miles northeast of Atlanta., alongside medic helicopters.
CNN reported that a hospital in Winder was receiving patients with gunshot wounds.
At least one person was loaded into the helicopter on a stretcher around 11:20 a.m. The helicopter flew to Grady Memorial Hospital, a Level 1 trauma center.
Then a new helicopter arrived around 12:10 p.m.
At least eight ground ambulances, including ones from other counties, responded, with several leaving the school with lights and sirens on.
A heavily armed group of law enforcement officers were seen in formation entering the building, but they hadn’t come out as of noon. Individual SWAT-type officers could be seen checking around around the perimeter of the building as late as 1 p.m.
The FBI was among the agencies on the scene along with hundreds of law enforcement vehicles from other agencies, including the Georgia State Patrol. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said it was involved, as well.
"We urge anyone near the area to stay clear while authorities investigate," GBI said.
The White House said President Joe Biden had been briefed on the matter.
Atlanta schools bolstered security in response to the shooting, Mayor Andre Dickens said. After the shooting was reported, the school was placed on a hard lockdown and students were evacuated. Also on lockdown was a nearby middle school.l
"FBI Atlanta is aware of the current situation at Apalachee High School," Tony Thomas, FBI Atlanta spokesperson said. "Our agents are on scene coordinating with and supporting local law enforcement."
It’s unclear how the gun got into the school. But the district’s code of conduct says it has the ability to conduct screening with handheld metal detectors.
A new law required annual active shooter drills at schools in Georgia, and that may have played a role in authorities’ response. The measure requires every public school to complete an active shooter drill by Oct. 1 of each year. Students are required to participate, although districts can choose to allow parents to opt their children out.
The measure also requires the state Professional Standards Commission to create a school safety and anti-gang license endorsement for teachers and other certified personnel who complete a training program in "multidisciplinary best practices for promoting and preserving safe schools and for identifying and deterring youth gangs."
The measure amended an existing law requiring school safety plans be submitted yearly to not only local law enforcement but also the Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency
UPDATE:
After a school shooting killed four people and injured others in Barrow County, FBI Atlanta officials say the suspect was previously interviewed for online threats made in 2023. Too busy...
“In May 2023, the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center received several anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting at an unidentified location and time. The online threats contained photographs of guns. Within 24 hours, the FBI determined the online post originated in Georgia and the FBI’s Atlanta Field Office referred the information to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office for action,” said FBI Atlanta and Jackson County Sheriff’s Office in a joint statement. “The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office located a possible subject, a 13-year-old male, and interviewed him and his father. The father stated he had hunting guns in the house, but the subject did not have unsupervised access to them. The subject denied making the threats online.”
FBI Atlanta officials confirm the subject from the 2023 threats is 14-year-old Colt Gray, who is the suspect in Apalachee High School’s deadly shooting.
On Wednesday, hundreds of law enforcement officers swarmed Apalachee High School in Barrow County and took a suspect into custody after a shooting killed four people.
Gray was confronted by a school resource officer, and the teenager immediately got down on the ground and surrendered, authorities said.
Smith said the boy surrendered because it was clear things would not go well for him.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said four people were killed – two students and two teachers – and nine were taken to hospitals with injuries.
The suspect was identified as Gray, a student at the school who’ll be charged as an adult, authorities said.
Meanwhile, CNN reported that law enforcement sources said the school got a phone call warning there would be shootings at five schools and that Apalachee would be the first. Authorities are investigating.

So the FED's knew and hopefully the informed the LOCAL Officials on this potentially deadly problem a year ago.
I can see Tin-Hat's pointing out why did the FED's wait? Was it because the DC higher ups saw an Election Year Gun Control agenda item in the making?
Some Real Questions.
Why was he still in school and cutting classes at will?
How was a known hostile problem Teen able to acquire a rifle size weapon and get it in to school, without being seen and stopped by the school assigned Police Officers that should have been monitoring him closely?
The telephone warning, that 4 other schools are to be shot up. Since Call-ID and IMEI tracking is common now, are they tracking it down #?
Given those in power, I half jokingly I have to ask. Did the kid have off-shore banks accounts? Like the Trump shooter did?

In May 2023, the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center received several anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting at an unidentified location and time.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A man is accused of killing more than 80 farm animals during a disturbing shooting in rural California.
Salinas resident Vicente Joseph Arroyo, 39, allegedly committed the horrifying slaughter early on Tuesday morning over the course of three hours, before being found in a crashed car on the property by police.
His victims ranged in species from ponies and goats to guinea pigs, cops said - adding how a host of chickens, birds, rabbits and ducks, were killed as well.
A miniature horse was also murdered, as the bloodbath that caused residents nearby to take shelter still remains unexplained. It did, however, end with the suspect's arrest, and multiple long rifles, shotguns and handguns being found at the scene.
An illegal assault weapon was also seized from the weapons cache, as it was revealed some animals survived but were later euthanized. Police in Prunedale issued a statement detailing Arroyo's arrest.
'The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office has arrested a suspect after he began to randomly fire multiple weapons and killed approximately 80 animals during an approximate 3-hour period,' the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office said.
'On Tuesday September 3rd at about 3:25am, the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office began receiving multiple calls of numerous shots being fired.
'Deputies responded to the scene and upon arrival could hear shots continuing to be fired in the area. A shelter in place order was put into effect.'
The bulletin went on to reveal how 'various calibers of weapons could be heard being fired' during the event, which began in the dead of night as families slept.
The firing of hundreds of rounds from the weapons cache followed 'in an area that was extremely dark and covered in thick vegetation,' cops said.
'This made it difficult for deputies to immediately locate the person or persons responsible for firing the weapons.'
Because of this, assistance was requested from a Monterey County SWAT team, and a drone was deployed by the Seaside Fire Department and Gonzales Police Department, the sheriff's office said.
With use of the drone, the suspect and his crashed vehicle were observed within the property - a vineyard set along the 16000 block of Avery Lane, cops said.
The SWAT team proceeded to approach the suspect in an armored vehicle, statement said, and photos released by the sheriff's office showed Arroyo getting on his knees and surrendering.
Some animals survived but were taken by SPCA to be euthanized, cops revealed - citing the 'severity of their injuries.'
Whom the animals belonged to still remains unknown - as does Arroyo's motive and ties to the property in question.
Deputies also said that Arroyo - whose mugshot has yet to be released - may have recently moved to the rural area.
The local DA, meanwhile, said that Arroyo, depending on the exact amount of animals killed, could face 10 years in prison. Officials will not know the number until the case is submitted.
In the interim, Arroyo remains incarcerated on $50,000 bail.
He has been charged with willful discharge of a firearm with gross negligence, cruelty to animals, illegal possession of an assault weapon, vandalism, criminal threats and felon in possession of a firearm.
The suspect lived in a small trailer next to the property where the animals were being kept, Cmdr. Andres Rosas, Monterey County sheriff’s spokesperson, told the Chronicle. One of the miniature horses belonged to one person, while the rest of the 80 animals belonged to another person, who was renting the area from the horse owner.
Rosas said that both animal owners do not want to be identified and do not want to speak with the media at this time.
The property is a private piece of land that has no name and is not a farm, Rosas said, adding that the land had several animal pens constructed in which the animals lived.
Rosas told the Chronicle the suspect was not employed at the property.
Arroyo’s bail was raised from $50,000 to $1 million Wednesday afternoon after authorities the search of his home turned up illegal weapons.
[FoxNews] Rhanni S Davis, 30, allegedly shot, killed 4 people sleeping on Chicago Transit Authority line, police said
A Chicago man who allegedly shot and killed four passengers at random as they were sleeping on a train on Monday has been charged.
Rhanni S. Davis, 30, is charged with four counts of first-degree murder, Fox Chicago reported.
The four victims were sleeping on a Chicago Transit Authority Blue Line train around 5:30 a.m. when they were shot, authorities said.
The train arrived at the Forest Park station and CTA workers notified police.
Three victims were pronounced dead at the scene. The fourth victim was taken to Loyola University Medical Center before being pronounced dead.
Two of the victims were identified as Adrian Collins, 60, and Simeon Bihesi, 28. The other two victims have so far been identified only as a male and a female.
Davis fled the scene after the shootings but was arrested on the CTA's Pink Line. Police reportedly recovered a gun during the arrest.
Surveillance video allegedly showed Davis walking through a train car and shooting three of the victims seated separately, police said.
[ABC7Chicago] The I-Team has uncovered more information about the person accused in a shooting on a CTA Blue Line train that killed four sleeping passengers Monday, including red flags in their past.
Forest Park police announced the arrest of 30-year-old Rhanni Davis on Tuesday, and at a news conference, said Davis has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder.
Police and court records show Davis has a criminal history, and over the years, has gone by several different spellings of their name.
In 2013, court records show Davis filed a petition to change their birth name from James Wesley D McDavis, III, to Rhianni J. Davis.
The ABC 7 I-Team found state regulatory records showing a person with that same name -- Rhianni Davis - as well as the same date-of-birth and residing zip-code was officially licensed by the state of Illinois as a private security guard.
In addition to the private security guard license, known in Illinois as a Permanent Employee Registration Card (PERC), this individual also had a Firearm Control Card and Firearms Instructor Card.
State officials tell the I-Team those cards authorize a licensed security guard to carry a firearm while working, as well as authorize the individual to train other state licensees on handling firearms.
A person with the same name, Rhianni J. Davis of Chicago, also has a Linked-In profile listing employment with several private security firms.
Those listed firms have not responded to the ABC 7 I-Team's inquiries regarding Davis' possible employment.
Forest Park police have not confirmed whether the licensed individual is the suspect arrested for Monday's CTA shooting.
The accused CTA shooter's criminal history begins in 2014, when Chicago police arrested the then 20-year-old Davis and charged them with misdemeanor battery using their birth name: James McDavis.
That case ended with a guilty plea and was the beginning of a series of criminal, gun and traffic charges and arrests, many of which ended with the cases dismissed.
Davis was also arrested with a loaded gun at a public transit station in the past.
The I-Team obtained records revealing METRA commuter rail police arrested Davis in 2019 with 9mm Taurus semi-automatic handgun, with one 9mm Luger hollow point bullet in the chamber and seven in the magazine. That case was dropped by Cook County prosecutors, court records show.
There was another gun arrest in 2021, also for a 9mm, when the weapon was found by Chicago police following a traffic accident. Again, the case was dropped by prosecutors.
The cases may have been dropped because Davis had a legal Illinois FOID card, according to CPD records.
And in the decade since the first arrest, even while Davis had multiple arrests, there was only one misdemeanor conviction connected to a looting incident.
Authorities now claim Davis roamed between two CTA train cars early Monday morning when he shot and killed four sleeping passengers.
Davis' first court appearance is scheduled for Wednesday at noon.
[FoxNews] Marrero lied to commanding officers about the network at least three times
A U.S. Navy command senior chief was demoted for conspiring with other Navy chiefs to install an illegal Wi-Fi network on a warship that they used to check sports scores and watch TV shows.
Grisel Marrero, a senior enlisted Navy officer, reportedly installed a Starlink network on the USS Manchester called "STINKY."
The command senior chief installed and operated the unauthorized network during a deployment in 2023. She charged the $1,000-a-month cost of the network to a leadership association debit card.
Marrero lied and misled her commanding officer about the network at least three times, according to a charge sheet reviewed by Fox News Digital.
As the Manchester prepared for a West Pacific deployment in April 2023, Marrero conspired with the ship’s chief to install the secret network. It would be exclusive to them: They didn’t share it with rank-and-file sailors who were forced to deploy without connectivity.
The chiefs used the network to check sports scores, text and stream movies, according to an internal investigation obtained by Navy Times.
Marrero was demoted from senior chief petty officer to chief petty officer after being found guilty of dereliction of duty and providing false official statements to commanders on May 29. Before her trial, Naval Surface Force Pacific, or SURFPAC, quietly relieved her of her leadership position aboard the Manchester, according to Navy Times.
SURFPAC spokesman Cmdr. Arlo Abrahamson told Navy Times that other sailors were disciplined in connection to the unauthorized WiFi but declined to provide further details.
Using such a wireless network for entertainment could cause a serious security breach, the investigation warned: "The danger such systems pose to the crew, the ship and the Navy cannot be understated."
Prosecutors said Marrero "failed to prevent the USS Manchester’s exposure to operational security risk, as it was her duty to do."
Marrero had paid for the $2,800 Starlink dish on her personal credit card and was the network administrator. She and another chief installed the dish during an "aloft" time period when duties aren’t recorded in the ship’s logs, according to Navy Times.
She named the network "STINKY" to make it sound like a wireless printer, though there were no such printers on the ship.
When junior sailors and commanding officers began to notice the network, Marrero denied its existence, according to the sheet. She also altered a data display image for the Starlink account to reflect lesser data usages.
The Starlink dish was discovered on Aug. 18 of that year by a civilian installing an authorized satellite communication system.
"The gig is up," Marrero texted a crew member at the time, according to the investigation.
After being confronted, she and the other chiefs tried to remove the dish, then told commanders they only used it while in port.
Marrero finally admitted to being behind the illegal network to her commanding officer on Aug. 26, 2023.
Court records show Marrero pleaded guilty to two counts of dereliction of duty and one count of obstruction of justice.
She was used to certain comforts that she didn't want to give up just because she was out on that icky boat. And worse, the rest of the goat locker went along with her and paid money for the privilege.

Saw this story a couple of days ago; yes why is she still in the service and while the results of the NJPs for the E-7/8/9s involved ( I refuse to call them Chiefs) have not been released, every one needs busted back to E-5/6. Broke the trust.
I also suspect that the CO was, to some degree complicit; her ‘investigation’ into the rumors of this network appear halfhearted; why didn’t any of the ETs or Radarmen see a strange antenna mounted on the ship? She (the CO) in my opinion, was covering ‘for the sisterhood.’
And just why did the XO get transferred? Asking too many uncomfortable questions?
The last chapter to this story isn’t written yet.
#9
Reading the CDR Salamander link in #7, it is hard not to marvel at the persistence of the chief perps (no pun!) and the number of people involved in maintaining this network, even to the extent of re-installing it after they were found out. Kinda sorta makes me wonder if this was a foreign intelligence op.
#13
where are "rum, lashes, and sodomy" in this story?
That would come under the " streaming 'movies' " part. And to be fair, that could account for the persistence and enthusiasm of the miscreants. It does not, however, diminish the security hole.
#14
How could she not be in prison? How could she not be booted from the force? Are there no security officers who routinely monitor signals incoming-and-outgoing and not notice the irregularity? How did the $1,000 a month credit card charge go un-noticed? I haven't seen a "Starlink dish", but aren't there routine patroles on such vessils looking for "stuff that shouldn't be here" (like just part of maintaining a ship that spends 24/7 outdoors)?
Is that what passes for chain-of-command these days?
#15
She has enough time in to retire 'for the good of the service'. The decision is will they allow it and even if so at the current rank or do they want to make it painful with a reduction. I remember they went after that Navy Seal. At least he didn't endanger an entire ship with EM signals.
I've always said it: Never pose for a foto with a rifle. It just adds up to no good.
[Regnum] The commander of the American destroyer USS John S. McCain, Cameron Yaste, was fired for “loss of trust” after a photo of him shooting a rifle with an inverted sight was circulated on social media, Newsweek wrote on September 3.
Even in Russia they are flabbergasted by this.
The corresponding photo appeared on the official Instagram account of the US Navy (owned by Meta, which is recognized as extremist and banned in Russia) in early April. Users quickly noticed the mistake made by Commander Cameron Yaste in the photo. The photo also caused widespread ridicule and criticism, which prompted the US Navy to remove the image.
"The Navy holds leaders to the highest standards and holds them accountable when those standards are not met," the Navy said in a press release.
The photo of Yaste with the rifle was not mentioned in the release.
Captain Allison Christie, deputy commander of Destroyer Squadron 21, has temporarily assumed command of the USS John S. McCain. The destroyer is currently in the Gulf of Oman.
As reported by IA Regnum, in July, radio host Loful-Sanders was fired in the US for an interview with US President Joe Biden on questions from the White House. It turned out that she independently negotiated, organized and conducted the interview with the president on questions written by the White House, while the management of the WURD radio station knew nothing about it. Representatives of the radio station said that the questions for the interview were determined in advance, and this, in their opinion, contradicts the principle of maintaining the independence of WURD Radio.

I've got to believe there is more to this story. I really doubt that he mou tether scope himself. That would have been done by a Gunner's Mate. There may have been something else going on and the Navy used the scope story as an excuse.

[GatewayPundit] The document outlines a media plan for the couple’s breakup, complete with a prepared statement and post-split strategy to protect Kelce’s public image.
"This document is intended for internal use only and contains confidential information regarding the media strategy for Travis Kelce," the alleged contract reads." Who didn't see this coming? The NFL is now nothing but a soap opera-ish marketing scam scrounging for eyes.

Explains why the bubble gum matrix has been feeding me stuff like, if you are going to watch a game with KC playing, just get used to the announces talking about Kelce Swift. BTW, BAL@KC season opening is tonight.
Remember when the game announcers would talk about the sport, and strategy? Now they all just talk fashion and celebration dancing while getting boozy.
Swift is important in the sense that when democrats say middle age cat lady, they want you to think of her, not the 2x overweight woman with a lousy haircut and dye job with fish tackle all over her face, each cat representing a failed relationship, residence smelling of ammonia.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A newly discovered asteroid is set to hit Earth today when it strikes the atmosphere over the Philippines.
The asteroid is currently will hit speeds of 39,000 miles per hour when it streaks through the sky at 12:45pm ET.
However, the relatively small, three-foot asteroid is predicted to burn up in the atmosphere, with what remains crashing into the sea.
Because of its immense speed, the asteroid is expected to shine bright, bursting into a bright fireball that can be seen by people in the Philippines at 12:46 a.m. local time.
The article was updated yesterday at 16:35 EDT, so it seems a reasonable assumption that we all did not die.

Did you know:
In 1958 a litter of Armadillos was born in captivity. One random kit was picked out - a male, named him Spot - and was raised in captivity. At exactly his 2nd birthday, he was measured and weighed, and adhered to a stretch of road which would eventually be call I-10. An off the line, standard model 1960 Ford F-150 Regular Cab Long Bed, driven by Tom 'Pecos' Jamison weighing in at exactly 150lbs, driving at exactly 60mph, struck Spot using the front-passenger tire, and the sound was recorded on magnetic tape? That audio became the standard for a measure of sound called a Dillybel, or dBL, and is still in use today to measure the intensity of an armadillo vehicle strike? Everything used in standardizing this unit of measure can be found in The Lever Museum in Paris, Texas.
[Gateway] Former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino said a whistleblower has come forward to him with new information on the January 6 ’pipe bomber.’
Dan Bongino said according to the whistleblower, after the pipe bombs were found at the RNC and DNC headquarters, "assets on the ground, including a whistleblower, was briefed about the pipe bombs the next day and show a picture of a guy in a hoodie."
However, according to the whistleblower, the law enforcement agents were told to stand down two days later.
"But two days later after the pipe bombs, he notes, emphasis his — without explanation, they were told to stand down! No need to look for the guy anymore" Bongino said.

[FoxNews] As we gear up to return to the moon with NASA's upcoming Artemis missions, we're not just aiming to set foot there again. This time, we're planning to stay. The Artemis program is focused on establishing a sustainable human presence on the moon, which will serve as a crucial stepping stone for future journeys to Mars.
This ambitious mission involves more than just landing astronauts. It requires a whole new level of infrastructure, and that's where Honeybee Robotics steps in with its cutting-edge solutions, contributing to the development of essential technologies needed for living and working on the moon.
Humans haven’t set foot on the moon in more than 50 years. As NASA and its partners work to change that, Honeybee Robotics is focused on ensuring we have the power systems necessary for long-term habitation and exploration. In collaboration with mPower Technology, Honeybee Robotics has been selected to develop the Lunar Array Mast and Power System (LAMPS), a key component of the lunar power grid.
This system will consist of towers as tall as the Statue of Liberty, equipped with solar panels and batteries, providing power, communications, and even street lighting on the moon. LAMPS utilizes Honeybee's DIABLO technology and mPower's DragonSCALES solar modules, enabling flexible and efficient energy solutions in the harsh lunar environment.
The idea of having a power grid on the moon is quickly shifting from a far-off notion to something we can actually see taking shape. Honeybee Robotics is playing a big role in making this happen with its LUNARSABER initiative. While there are still hurdles to overcome, the potential for a bustling lunar economy is becoming somewhat more realistic.
Say, you don't think that recent "meteor" was actually Boeing's Starliner de-orbiting unannounced? It would be a quick and easy way to clear the docking port.
