RATIONAL AUTONOMY: FROM "EXTERNAL COMMAND" TO "INTERNAL AGENCY"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As society evolves toward a reality-based framework, the shift from external command to internal agency is not one of forced conformity, but of elevated consciousness.

1. The Right to the "Crutch": Sovereignty of the Internal World
Evolutionary progress does not require the policing of thought.
On the contrary, it reinforces Somatic and Cognitive Sovereignty.

The Safety Clause:
Every individual has the absolute right to hold any belief or scriptural "fantasy" they choose, provided it does not translate into the harm of others. Harm is defined by the "Real Reality" of biological well-being, not by scriptural dogma.

🧵 HEZBOLLAH ATTACK DRONES: NUMBERS, PRODUCTION, AND IRAN’S ROLE

A breakdown of Hezbollah’s attack drone program:
✔️How many they have
✔️How they’re produced
✔️What happens if Iranian supply lines are disrupted

WHAT ARE HEZBOLLAH DRONES?
These are one-way attack drones.
They fly into a target and explode on impact.
Think: precision-guided, low-cost strike tools used against troops and infrastructure

HOW MANY DO THEY HAVE?
Most consistent estimates:
~1,000 attack (suicide) drones.
Hezbollah also has additional UAVs for surveillance.
But attack drones are the key operational tool here.

2) As A Man Thinketh by James Allen
"I’ve read this book more than a dozen times and often give it as a gift because it’s concise, easy to read and yet extremely profound. It dives deep into the concept of understanding that your thoughts truly shape everything in your life that you feel and experience."

1/ The City of London bank Peel Hunt has warned investors that Donald Trump "may have lost control" of the Iran war, raising the "real risk of an inflationary recession" globally. Prolonged higher interest rates are forecast to be a significant possibility. ⬇️
2/ The bank has issued a briefing note to investors drafted by its chief economist, @KallumPickering. He writes:
3/ "Donald Trump may have lost control of the situation, which makes a quick (unilateral) resolution harder and increases the risk that the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked even once fighting ends."
Today, SCOTUS ruled in Chiles v. Salazar, resulting in CO's law protecting youth from conversion therapy to be struck down. Conversion therapy remains harmful to youth & rejected by a majority of medical institutions. Survivors STILL have legal options to fight back.
The ruling is narrow. Survivors still have legal options to fight back against the harms of conversion therapy, including medical malpractice, consumer fraud claims, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Today's Ruling:
❌ Does not legalize conversion therapy
❌ Does not immunize practitioners from civil liability
❌ Does not alter the overwhelming medical and scientific consensus
that conversion therapy is dangerous, ineffective, and harmful

Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) satellite navigation systems have played a crucial role in the electronic warfare (EW) struggle between Ukraine and Russia.
These electronic systems provide powerful protection against EW systems that try to jam GPS/GLONASS signals.

These electronic systems provide powerful protection against EW systems that try to jam GPS/GLONASS signals.
1/
GPS signals are extremely weak when they reach earth from the satellites 20,200 km overhead (10^{-16} watts!).
This makes jamming these signals (overwhelming with a stronger signal) relatively simple, and a powerful jammer can prevent reception of GPS signals over a wide area.

That is, if the GPS receiver has a single antenna, as in our cell phones.
A CRPA is an array of four or more antennas that exploit the spatial difference between horizontal signals from ground-based jammers and the generally vertical GPS signals from overhead.

Professor @RandyEBarnett , one of the most influential Originalists of all time, has written an article in the @WSJ explaining that President Trump is right on Birthright Citizenship. He is one of the leading libertarian law professors. Originalists agree on this issue.
Professor Barnett highlights several of the weaknesses in the Executive Order's opponents arguments. They lack text, history, and tradition. Oh my! He compares this debate to Heller--common wisdom among law professors was proven wrong at the Supreme Court. And he would know!

This is what the media didn't want us to know about the Islamic terrorist attack on a Jewish preschool out of Dearborn

“Jihad is a gateway to heaven; one that Allah opens to his chosen ones,” he texted

The portfolio is managed by agents each with a specific job
First, they score the Russell 1000 stocks by downloading + analyzing financials, news & analyst data
The top 50 scored stocks then move onto step two
