Zacharia: "I am looking forward to walking in & working for President Trump. This job is not about me, it's about him... his policies are the most effective, most exciting. He's the most energetic, intense president we've ever seen. When I was there yesterday he showed me where the ballroom will be"

I spent years working at the Pentagon and on homeland security. The prospect of a military-developed weapon designed to inflict intense pain being operated by DHS on American soil raises serious red flags. What safeguards prevent its misuse by CBP or potentially ICE? Here’s why I’m concerned.👇

The Pentagon Just Approved Lending Its “Heat Ray” to DHS. Here’s Why That Should Worry You.
The military never used it in combat. Now U.S. Customs and Border Protection may use it at home.

A weapon developed for war and designed to inflict intense pain has been approved for loan to federal law enforcement on American soil. The Pentagon authorized the heat ray for DHS. Could ICE get access? Could it be used against migrants or Americans exercising First Amendment rights? Who decides?

Yesterday, Pete Hegseth spent part of his “State of the Force” speech focused on culture wars. Then he announced a 20% cut to America’s top military leaders. That’s not a small change, and I have a lot of questions about how this could impact our national security.

Since Trump claims that it was “the military” that requested to use the arch to store sniper ammo & drones, these are the times when a Democratic majority could bring Gen. Dan Caine before Congress to find out from him if that is true & why. As usual, Republicans will do nothing.
