the united states of israel. now they think they can get away with anything; 

 

From Grok:

Next steps for it to become law:

1. Senate consideration — The bill is now sent to the U.S. Senate. The Senate will debate it, potentially amend it (or consider its own version of related legislation like S. 4784 for the NDAA), and hold a vote. This often requires overcoming procedural hurdles, such as a 60-vote threshold for cloture to end debate.
2. Reconciliation (if needed) — If the Senate passes a different version, a House-Senate conference committee will negotiate a final compromise bill.
3. Presidential approval — The final bill goes to the President to sign into law (or veto). If signed, it becomes law and funds the relevant programs for FY 2027 (starting October 1, 2026).

Current context (as of July 15, 2026): The House passage happened today. Senate progress on defense-related bills has faced delays, with recent reports of Democrats blocking advancement of the NDAA (requiring broader bipartisan support). Appropriations bills like this one are time-sensitive ahead of the new fiscal year............more..............

The discussion remains controversial depending on the location.  Generally, data centers located in rural isolation do not seem to be too controversial. However, data centers built in proximity to population centers stimulate a great deal of opposition............more.........

 larry johnson reports war news as he obtains it; 

 

On Monday July 13, airstrikes hit the runway at Sanaa International Airport shortly after a Houthi delegation returned from the funeral in Iran for the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Yemen’s Defense Minister Gen. Taher al-Aqili said on X that the runway was struck to stop a plane carrying the Houthi delegation returning from Khamenei’s funeral. The IRG defense ministry said it had exhausted diplomatic efforts to persuade Iran and the Houthis to stay out of Yemeni airspace, that it would respond to hostile aircraft “by all available means,” and held Iran responsible.

However, Israel’s mouthpiece on Axios, Barak Ravid, citing two US officials, reported that Trump gave Saudi leader MBS his backing for the strike in a phone call last Friday — MBS asked for support for military action against the Houthis and received it. The White House declined to comment directly and the Saudi embassy didn’t respond.

The proximate cause is aviation, not ground war. About ten days ago a Mahan Air flight landed in Sanaa — the first Iran–Sanaa flights in over a decade — and picked up a Houthi delegation traveling to the funeral of former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Saudi Arabia blocked subsequent flights, fearing they’d be used to move weapons or Iranian military advisers to the Houthis. (Note the airport itself has been largely destroyed and out of action since Israeli strikes in May.)

Following the Saudi Attack on Sanaa, the Houthis retaliated by firing ballistic missiles and drones at Abha International Airport in Saudi Arabia’s southwestern Asir region — a mountainous area near the Yemeni border and a domestic summer destination. Saree claimed the strike. The Saudi-led coalition spokesman said air defenses “dealt with a threat from ballistic missiles” launched toward the southern region. No casualties reported..........more..........

 'our' government isn't ours. it has been sold to the big bidders; 

 

I took an oath to the Constitution of the United States, which I continue to honor. Most of Congress and many other officials took the same oath but repudiated it to support a Criminal Enterprise aka the Parasitic Super-Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC). This Criminal Enterprise, consisting of wealthy families, billionaires and large Corporations, control their cowardly and bribed minions in government to operate only a facade of a Constitutional Government, most of which is a Criminal Enterprise..

Only the ignorant and apathetic among us do not know that this is the absolute truth. Citizens who don’t oppose the Traitors in office don’t deserve to be Citizens. Many, if not most of these so-called Citizens, are recipients of all manner of welfare causing a labor shortage, inflation, and reduction in the living standards of those who work. The able-bodied who don’t work are Communists who might not know it.

The Indolent Communists, crooked Anti-American officials, and the Parasitic Super-Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC) are enemies of The People and our Constitutional Government. This group lives off the government and represents about 50% of our population. In a Civil War, these freeloaders would be on one side of the conflict. It is important that Patriots know their potential enemies, or surely they will be defeated.

It is imperative that people understand that an armed conflict is a lose-lose proposition and must be avoided at all costs, except for slavery..........more..........

 more here on the attempts to formalize israel's ownership of the empire as our treasonous 'lawmakers' push for more for the zionists; 

 

Washington’s yearly defense measure has ground to a halt, and one buried clause explains why a widening bloc of lawmakers wants the whole thing pried back open. Members voted down the procedural rule required to open debate on the Fiscal Year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act on June 30, splitting 198 to 224 as fourteen Republicans broke away. Their rebellion turned on Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) bid to fasten President Donald Trump’s SAVE America Act to the must pass bill, not on the Israel clause.

Even so, the collapse handed opponents breathing room and preserved an amendment that leadership had already worked to smother. Lawmakers returned July 13 with barely eight working days left before the August recess, and the clause called Section 219 rides along with them. The pressure climbed again over the weekend when Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), among the Senate’s loudest champions of tight defense bonds with Israel, died without warning.

Once labeled Section 224, Section 219 carries the formal name the “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative.” It orders the Secretary of Defense to appoint a Pentagon executive agent charged with widening and speeding the joint research, evaluation, and industrial work shared by the two governments.

It’s language stretches across close to ten fields of warfare, taking in counter drone weapons, missile and air defense, artificial intelligence and autonomous platforms, quantum computing, cyber and electronic warfare, directed energy, biotechnology, and shared weapons manufacturing. A briefing falls due within 180 days, and yearly reports run through 2030. Read plainly, it sounds like housekeeping. Read closely, opponents argue, it threads a single foreign country straight into the apparatus that commandeers over a trillion dollars of American firepower.........more.........

 who are we fighting for? the six pointed star. we love us some joos we do here in the empire; 

 

Not one Republican senator voted against the national defense bill that would have virtually merged the U.S. and Israeli militaries.

Defeated by a 50-46 vote yesterday was a cloture motion that would have permitted the full Senate to consider the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act.

Media reports said Democrats defeated the motion, which needed 60 votes to pass, because of the Iran War.

But buried inside the 1,562-page bill is a measure similar to one in the House version. Both would permanently entangle the U.S. and Israeli militaries and endanger national security, along with making the United States a party to Israel’s reckless foreign and military policies.

Myriad voices on X, notably former GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, called the Republican votes “treason.”........more........
