Pentagon Extends Troop Deployment
at US-Mexico Border Through September

The U.S. Defense Department said Thursday that it will extend the deployment of up to 400 active-duty American troops at the U.S. southern border with Mexico until at least the end of September.

The Pentagon said the troops will "fill critical capability gaps, such as ground-based detection and monitoring, data entry, and warehouse support" but will not directly participate in law enforcement activities.

Quite true. The Posse Comitatus Act bars federal troops from participating in civilian law unless authorized by the government and the state they're sent. It represents a tradition of preventing military interference in civilian affairs, protecting democracy and personal liberty. And only if martial law declared can the government use them without any state's approval.

So likely, they COULD be used to aid the states and protect the border from illegal crossings... but federally told not to.

MICHIGAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE PLANT
SWEARS ALLEGIANCE TO CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY
Gotion High-Tech employees wearing Red Army outfits chanted in a video

Gotion Inc, a company owned by chinese parent company Gotion High-Tech, hosted multiple company trips in 2021 to memorials in China. And during the trips, the employees wore Red Army outfits and pledged to fight for communism. Video footage obtained from a July 2021 confirmed this, the dialogue translated.

A month later, the company held a trip to Dabie Mountain to commemorate the CCP’s Long March, an historic march that led to the emergence of Chinese dictator Mao Zedong in early 1935.

Gotion Inc, headquartered in Fremont, California, dismisses this, claiming they are not supervised, directed, controlled, or financed by any foreign political party. But critics  often point out that Gotion High-Tech's corporate bylaws state that the company is required to carry out activities according to Chinese Law.

Said revelations come as its project in Michigan continues to face heightened scrutiny from locals, national security experts and Republican lawmakers. Do know that the Michigan State Senate gave a stamp of approval for Goton to receive $175 million to fund their facility in a 10-9 vote, some Democrats joining every Republican in an attempt to block funding. And a Michigan law firm quietly registered Gotion Inc. as a Chinese foreign principal according to FARA (Foreign Agents Registration Act) filings.

 Essentially, GOTION registered that it is indeed a Chinese company that represents CCP's interests.

Jimmy Buffett, ‘Margaritaville’ Singer
Who Turned Island Escapism Into an Empire,
Dead at 76

Margaritaville: Song archived at Archive.Org

Jimmy Buffett, the singer-songwriter known for his enduring anthem “Margaritaville” and a businessman who transformed the 1977 song into an empire that encompassed restaurants, resorts, and more, has died at the age of 76.

A statement released on his website and social media late Friday read, “Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1st surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs. He lived his life like a song till the very last breath and will be missed beyond measure by so many.”

An obituary on Buffett’s website later revealed that the singer died following a four-year battle with Merkel cell skin cancer. Buffett had postponed tour dates due to unspecified “health issues and brief hospitalization” last year and postponed more shows this year after an unexpected trip to the hospital “to address some issues that needed immediate attention.” “He continued to perform during treatment, playing his last show, a surprise appearance in Rhode Island, in early July,” his website noted.
