@esjesjesj@willchamberlain Trump says the Iran military is defeated yet all 31 provinces in Iran have their own base and missiles etc. Trump certainly hasn't destroyed every base and all the missiles. He may have caused damage but he's overblowing it for show! #shawnryanshow
@ThatEricAlper That was one of the things I loved during my 15 years working concerts across Canada. Music brings people together and everyone could just be in the moment.
@Inevitablewest Oil and gas was withheld from Cuba which meant hospitals and emergency services were affected. Trump claimed a "friendly takeover" as they suffered. Absolutely disgusting and shows his true character!
@PubliusSSM @IanJaeger29 No way Trump will say no, he will want to brag about how he folded Russia and made an amazing deal. Wait for it! Trump goes for the money, he can't help himself. Last week Russia bad, next week they will be good.
@SpencerLynne love to see Canada triple it's military, upgrade weapons and increase training. We have a small military considering our size and compared to others. If America attacked, we would lose, no question. It doesn't have to be that way. Your thoughts?
@WallStreetApes The ego of @BillGates is insane. Just because he has money he thinks he has the right to make decisions for everyone. Can you say "ego maniac"? Anyone notice he only does interviews with soft questions? Love to see him questioned hooked up to a lie detector on a live broadcast!
BREAKING: U.S. Confirms "We Have Directed Energy Weapons โ And We're Scaling Them Up"
United States has indeed publicly acknowledged possession and ongoing development of directed-energy (DE) weapons, primarily high-energy lasers (HEL) and high-power microwave systems. These are not secret programs; the Department of Defense (DoD), the military services (especially the Navy and Army), and Congress have openly discussed them for years through budgets, roadmaps, testimonies, and public reports.
Possession and operational deployment โ The U.S. military has fielded limited operational or prototype DE systems since the mid-2010s. Examples include:
โThe Navy's HELIOS (High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance), a 60 kW-class system installed on Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, operational since around 2019โ2021 for countering drones, small boats, and other threats.
โThe Army's DE M-SHORAD (Directed Energy Maneuver-Short Range Air Defense), a 50 kW laser on Stryker vehicles, with prototypes deployed overseas (OCONUS) as early as 2024 for counter-unmanned aerial systems (cUAS) and related threats.
โOther systems like palletized high-energy lasers (e.g., P-HEL/LOCUST variants) and earlier demonstrators (e.g., on USS Ponce in 2014) confirm operational experience exists, though at modest scales (tens of kilowatts) and primarily for counter-drone/missil
@Riley_Gaines_ Now, if one country thinks another has committed crimes against it, they can attack the country to grab their president. What a great precedent to set, what can possibly go wrong, lol.
