[James R. Webb @JamesWebb_16]

We no longer have a carrier presence in the Pacific…

The debate about the food aboard the Lincoln and now the George Washington is largely a red herring. Arguing about food substitutes an emotional argument for a stark practical one. The real issue is how the war on Iran is burning through equipment and people. I.e., now the Lincoln, along with the Ford, will most certainly undergo maintenance for an extended period because of the length of their deployments in support of the war in Iran. Those deployments will also hurt retention (this was a major issue during the Iraq War in particular; remember stop loss?) And the question is: for what? It’s not like they were chasing the Imperial Japanese Navy across the Pacific following an attack like Pearl Harbor.

Now the Administration, despite all the warnings about Taiwan and a China-focused National Security Strategy, is moving our only carrier out of the Pacific. This is a major strategic signal, coming on the heels of news that we’ve burned through other major capabilities such as interceptors, radars, stand-off munitions, and a large chunk of the MQ-9 fleet, among other things.

It is clear that the Iran war is not only detrimental to US national security, but a potential strategic blunder worse than Iraq if we don’t cut bait; and this is the conversation pro-war types want to avoid at all costs.

Britain can’t stop illegal migrants crossing the Channel, but it can stop Päivi Räsänen, a Christian grandmother and former Finnish Interior Minister, from changing planes at Heathrow.

Christian views on marriage now make you a security threat.

This country has lost its mind.

Zohran Mamdani says America should look into Islam and follow the example of “Prophet Muhammad” on migration.

Fun fact: After conquering Mecca, Muhammad deported all the Christians and Jews and banned them from entering the city ever again.

To this day, non-Muslims are prohibited from entering Mecca because they are considered dirty and impure.

Does Mamdani want to turn New York into an all-Islamic state like his prophet did in Mecca?

AI MEMORY BOOM ADDS TO U.S. INFLATION

Wolfe Research says soaring memory chip prices, driven by AI demand, have added about 0.3 percentage points to U.S. core inflation.

Rising DRAM and NAND costs are pushing up computer and smartphone prices, with Apple expected to raise prices on several products.

Wolfe warns AI is becoming an inflation driver rather than a disinflationary force.

Windows 10 users, we're sorry for the inconvenience.

While bringing FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 users, we missed an issue that prevented AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 from installing on some Windows 10 systems.

A fix is available now, and we'll release a WHQL Recommended version of AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition next week.
