[10 News] About Friggin' time. Let the Liberal heads explode!
The ship was named in 2016 by then-Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, who said the John Lewis-class of oilers would be named after leaders who fought for civil and human rights.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the Navy to rename the USNS Harvey Milk, a highly rare move that will strip the ship of the moniker of a slain gay rights pedophile activist who served as a sailor during the Korean War.
I imagine he was drafted. At any rate, his Navy service can’t possibly have been central to his story.
U.S. officials say Navy Secretary John Phelan put together a small team to rename the replenishment oiler and that a new name is expected this month. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations, said the next name had not yet been chosen.
The USNS Harvey Milk was named in 2016 by then-Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, who said at the time that the John Lewis-class of oilers would be named after leaders who fought for civil and human rights.
Milk, who was portrayed by Sean Penn in an Oscar-winning 2008 movie, served for four years in the Navy before he was forced out for being gay. He later became one of the first openly gay candidates elected to public office. Milk served on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and had sponsored a bill banning discrimination based on sexual orientation in public accommodations, housing and employment. It passed, and San Francisco Mayor George Moscone signed it into law.
His Navy service was clearly more more important to those social justice warriors who pushed for a ship to be named after him, than to the man himself, and rightfully so.
On Nov. 27, 1978, Milk and Moscone were assassinated by Dan White, a disgruntled former city supervisor who cast the sole vote against Milk’s bill.
The ship was christened in 2021, and during the ceremony, then-Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro said he wanted to be at the event "not just to amend the wrongs of the past, but to give inspiration to all of our LGBTQ community leaders who served in the Navy, in uniform today and in the civilian workforce as well, too, and to tell them that we’re committed to them in the future."

Harvey Milk lived with a teenage runaway while he was in his 30s.
Raped him repeatedly for years.
As usually happens with gay pedohpiles, the kid aged out of the age they're attracted to and Milk kicked his ass to the curb.
The kid killed himself shortly thereafter.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The United States Navy announced this morning that the USS Harvey Milk will be officially renamed the USS No Homo.
Christened the 'Harvey Milk' four years ago in honor of the infamous gay sexual predator, the ship's name change reflects a broader effort by military leadership to clarify that the Navy isn't actually that gay.
"Despite the uniforms, the Navy isn't just nancy boys and fairies," said Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. "The names of our ships ought to reflect that non-gayness. It's hard enough for them already, wearing their fruity little sailor outfits, without also having their ships named after gay child molesters. Therefore, we have officially renamed the ship the 'No Homo' out of love and care for our Navy brothers. No homo."
Gay rights activists have condemned the decision, stating it is a blatant denial of the truth as the ship is obviously very gay. "Who do you think you're fooling? The ship is a literally called an 'oiler', its whole job is oiling up other ships, and it's docked in San Fran. It's a total flamer," said local activist Mikai Danielson. "Methinks Secretary Hegseth doth protest too much."
At publishing time, Secretary Hegseth had issued an order for everyone to stop calling Navy guys "seamen."

[Regnum] The duration of magnetic storms on Earth has reached 48 hours. This was reported on the website of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
“The total duration of continuous geomagnetic disturbances as of the current moment is 54 hours, of which 48 hours were storms,” the report says.
According to scientists, magnetosphere oscillations began to increase around 03:00 Moscow time and reached the G2 and G3 levels, which corresponds to a storm of medium and large strength. Such geomagnetic conditions are reported to remain until 15:00 Moscow time.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on May 31, scientists recorded the largest emission on the Sun since the beginning of the year. In this case, the plasma flew towards the Earth. The power of the flow is only slightly less than that of the flow in May last year, which caused a magnetic storm of the fifth category on Earth.
The plasma cloud traveled towards Earth at a speed of over 1,000 km/s. It reached the planet almost a day earlier than scientists had predicted.

[Regnum] An earthquake with a magnitude of 5.8 was recorded in the Aegean Sea region between Turkey and the Greek Dodecanese archipelago. This was reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Center.
According to the center, the epicenter of the earthquake was 24 km from the Greek island of Rhodes and 138 km from the Turkish coast. Its source was at a depth of about 69 km, and the magnitude reached 5.8.
Following the tremors, a tsunami warning was issued.
Here’s hoping. They’re the kind of educated, hard working, self-starters this country will benefit from, and they will properly appreciate all this country is instead of trying to turn it into the homeland they came from.
[Breitbart] “Thousands” of white South African refugees may be in the United States by the end of the summer as massive amounts of applications from Afrikaners — an ethnic minority in the country — continue to pour in, the Daily Caller reported.
A U.S. Department of State official told the outlet on Friday that the Trump administration is hoping to take in many more than the small group of 59 Afrikaners that arrived in Washington, DC, last month.
“We won’t be talking about dozens of arrivals, but hundreds and perhaps thousands,” the official said. While they did not specify an exact time frame, the official added that “we’ll start to massively scale this up” towards the “second half of summer.”
Referring to a backlog of more than 50,000 applications for refugee status from Afrikaners, who frequently face political and racial violence in their home country, the official added that this number will “continue to rise.”
As the first group of a few dozen Afrikaners was welcomed into the U.S. by the State Department on May 12, President Donald Trump blasted the establishment media for refusing to cover the “genocide” taking place against white farmers in South Africa.
“It’s a genocide that’s taking place that you people don’t want to write about, but it’s a terrible thing that’s taking place, and farmers are being killed,” Trump told reporters in the White House. “They happen to be white, but whether they’re white or black makes no difference to me.”
“But white farmers are being brutally killed, and their land is being confiscated in South Africa, and the newspapers and the media — television media — doesn’t even talk about it,” he continued. “If it were the other way around, they’d talk about it. That would be the only story they’d talk about.”
According to the State Department official, every Afrikaner who has been granted refugee status in the U.S. thus far “has demonstrated a persecution claim.”
“People have suffered attacks on their farms that were racially motivated,” they explained.
Despite the allegations of persecution against white people in his country, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has repeatedly insisted that they are not victims, Breitbart News reported.
“They are leaving because they don’t want to embrace the changes taking place in our country in accordance with our Constitution,” Ramaphosa claimed soon after news broke of the first group of refugees.
Speaking to reporters a short while later, the president called the refugees “cowardly” for “running away.”
Ramaphosa even went so far as to defend violent political chants calling to “Kill the Boer” and to “Kill the Farmer,” arguing that his country simply values “freedom of expression.”

[Breitbart] The Trump administration sent a $9.4 billion rescissions package to the House of Representatives that would eliminate “wasteful foreign aid spending” at the Department of State and USAID, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) revealed.
In a joint statement, Johnson, Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), House Majority Whip Tom Emmer R-MN), and Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI), highlighted how Republicans could now “fulfill” their “mandate and continue codifying into law a more efficient federal government.”
“Today, the House has officially received the rescissions request from the White House to eliminate $9.4 billion in wasteful foreign aid spending at the State Department and USAID and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds NPR and PBS,” Johnson said in a post on X. “Now that this wasteful spending by the federal government has been identified by DOGE, quantified by the Administration, and sent to Congress, House Republicans will fulfill our mandate and continue codifying into law a more efficient federal government.”
“This is exactly what the American people deserve,” the statement continued. “Next week, we will put the rescissions bill on the floor of the House and encourage all our Members to support this commonsense measure.”
The House Oversight Committee also confirmed in a post on X that the White House had sent Congress a $9.4 billion rescissions package, which included $1.1 billion in cuts “to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds NPR and PBS.”
“These outlets ATTACK the America First agenda on the taxpayers’ dime,” the House Oversight Committee wrote. “We’re ready to STOP this propaganda machine.”
The reports that a rescissions package had been sent to Congress comes after Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Russell Vought revealed during an interview with Fox News host Larry Kudlow that a rescission package with DOGE cuts would be sent to Congress.
“So, rumor has it that we’ve got a big rescission package, an Elon Musk DOGE rescission package coming up, can you confirm it?” Kudlow asked.
“I can,” Vought answered. “We’ll be spending that up on Monday or Tuesday, whenever the Houe is back in session, they will get our first rescissions bill. And, again, this has been proposed and we’ve talked about it, we want to make sure that Congress passes its first rescissions bill, including the DOGE, and we will send more it they pass it.”
Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) issued a statement describing the White House sending the $9.4 billion rescissions package to Congress as being “another promise made, promise kept” by President Donald Trump and his administration.
“With our national debt soaring at an alarming $36 trillion, this rescissions package takes serious steps to ensure hard-earned dollars of American citizens are not funding woke and weaponized programs around the world in the cloak of ‘foreign aid’ or public broadcasting that can only be described as politically biased,” Marshall said.
In a press release, Marshall noted that “under the Impoundment Control Act (ICA), the Trump Administration may transmit a request to Congress to rescind previously appropriated funds through a rescissions package.”

[FoxNews] Interior Secretary Doug Burgum begins process to restore ANWR oil development access.
Let me suggest quick applications, quick approvals and very quickly starting to dig, so that by the end of the President Trump his successor is presented with a fait accompli.
[Restoring Liberty] Corporate media often smear birth control skeptics for believing "misinformation" about the harms synthetic hormones can have on women’s bodies and minds. A flurry of nearly 300 lawsuits from females alleging that the popular "safe and effective" birth control shot Depo-Provera played a role in their development of brain and spine tumors, however, suggests women should question the effects of any drug sold to them — especially those designed to prevent pregnancy.
Upjohn Company, one of Pfizer’s acquisitions, debuted the birth control shot in the 1950s. Upon injection, the synthetic progestoerone cocktail is supposed to suppress ovulation and prevent pregnancy in women for up to three months at a time.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration initially approved the drug for limited contraceptive use in 1974. Widespread concern about cancer risks, however, forced the FDA to deny it a "general marketing licence" just four years later in 1978.
By 1992, however, the FDA had rubber-stamped Depo-Provera, which was increasingly prescribed to women off-label as birth control under the condition that its manufacturer would conduct "post-market studies of the risk of osteoporosis."
It wasn’t until years after that Depo-Provera’s official label would disclose a warning about "loss of bone mineral density" and recommend less than two years’ use.
