Summary

Media Criticism:
- We criticize the New York Times and the Drudge Report for allegedly spreading false information about Elon Musk being briefed on top-secret China war plans at the Pentagon.
- The Pentagon's chief spokesman, Sean Parnell, refuted these claims, calling the report fake and emphasizing that Musk's visit was related to technological discussions and defense spending cuts.
Defense Spending Cuts:
- The Department of Defense announced a cut of $580 million in wasteful spending, including over-budget projects and grants that do not align with current priorities.
- Specific examples include an HR software project and various grants related to decarbonizing Navy ships and equitable AI models.
New Fighter Jet Announcement:
- President Trump announced the development of the F-47, the world's first sixth-generation fighter jet, emphasizing its advanced capabilities and the importance of maintaining air dominance.
- The contract for the jet was awarded to Boeing, and the project is expected to bring significant jobs and technological advancements to the U.S.
Immigration and Deportation:
- We discuss the deportation of 261 criminal migrants to El Salvador, highlighting the use of the Alien Enemies Act to expedite the process.
- The author praises the cooperation between the U.S. and El Salvador in handling these deportations and criticizes activist judges who attempt to block such actions.
Political Commentary:
- The author comments on the Democratic Party, describing it as lost and radical, and criticizes Senator Mark Kelly for trading in his Tesla as a protest against Elon Musk and President Trump.
- We also touch on the broader political landscape, including the influence of the deep state and the importance of strong national security measures.
