🇺🇸 Lt. Gen. Joseph Jarrard didn’t sugarcoat... Asked straight-up if the U.S. could stop a drone swarm attack on American soil, he said, “No."

Detection is the killer gap: low, slow, small commercial-style drones fly under most of the Cold War-era radar net that protects the homeland.

Effectors (the actual kill tools) are sparse outside a handful of protected sites.

Ukraine’s mass drone strikes and daily Middle East one-way attacks have already proven the concept works.

A swarm launched from inside the U.S. (cartel, terrorist, or state proxy) could hit critical infrastructure, bases, or cities before most systems even register it.

The Pentagon isn’t sitting idle, but the tools are still limited and uneven:

- Rapid-response flyaway kits
- High-power microwaves
- Layered detection + authority expansion
- Budget and industrial push: Billions are flowing in the FY2027 request specifically for counter-UAS.

These are real, fielded, or near-fielded options, not vaporware. A well-protected base or VIP site can already defeat individual drones and small groups at decent rates.

But a true swarm of dozens or hundreds of cheap, autonomous, or GPS-denied drones launched from inside the continental U.S.?

Right now the answer is still NO in most places.

The tools exist and are multiplying fast, directed energy and flyaway kits especially, but coverage, density, and seamless detection across the entire country are still years of hard work away.

Until then, the U.S. is playing catch-up against a threat that is already routine everywhere else.

Jensen Huang joined his parents for a family meal in a simple local spot.

The CEO of the world’s most valuable company still makes time for dinner with the people who made the whole thing possible.

Hard not to root for the guy.

Late Thursday, an attorney for Swalwell sent a cease-and-desist letter to the woman, saying she had "made false statements accusing Mr. Swalwell of sexual assault and nonconsensual sexual encounter,” and threatening to sue her if she did not retract her allegations

Trump returned to say: "We must win this war quickly." But starting wars is an easy matter, whereas ending them does not happen with a few tweets. We will not leave you until you admit your mistake and pay its price. - @alilarijani_ir

@SFBART As an example right now…is the schedule incorrect?

[William Hou @WilliamHouSF]

@SFBART Why are there so many canceled trains during morning rush hours from Millbrae northbound? Kids need to get to Balboa Park for school and the last three days, they have been late. We drove some of them today after notification on the station platform.
