The Pentagon’s UFO office is developing sensor kits to help it collect data in real time on unidentified objects in the sky or in space. That’s according to Tim Phillips, the acting head of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, a U.S. Department of Defense office aimed at studying unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), a new term for UFOs that encompasses mysterious objects not only in the sky but also underwater or in space. Phillips said that his office is working with government laboratories and academia to develop a highly portable sensor kit known as the “Gremlin System” that can capture data across multiple spectra, according to a report in DefenseScoop. Phillips added that the Gremlin System has already proven capable of detecting a wide range of phenomena, including in space. “It’s picking up a lot of bats and birds. We’re learning a lot about solar flaring,” Phillips told a select group of reporters on March 7. “We’re really starting to understand what’s in orbit around our planet and how we can eliminate those as anomalous objects,” he added. The AARO director said that these Gremlin System sensors could be used to surveil sensitive sites for airspace intrusions, or even keep an eye on U.S. satellites in orbit.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission published harassment guidelines late last month indicating that it would be a punishable offense to misgender someone. Yup. Now, if you don’t call a person who wants to use “ze/zir” pronouns by those made-up pronouns, it would be considered harassment in the workplace. The new rules note that prohibited harassment includes “repeated and intentional use of a name or pronoun inconsistent with the individual’s known gender identity (misgendering) or the denial of access to a bathroom or other sex-segregated facility consistent with the individual’s gender identity.” Related: Peru Classifies Transgender People as ‘Mentally Ill’ The regulations also state that employees cannot “out” other employees - meaning that if a co-worker is a closeted freak, they must reveal that publicly on their own terms. The rules also state that employees must be allowed to use whichever bathrooms or “other sex-segregated” areas that they choose, even if their gender identity is not consistent with their biological sex. Included in the regulations were also possible scenarios to use as examples in order to understand what is and isn’t appropriate.  Here’s one creators used regarding gender identity: Chloe, a purchase order coordinator at a retail store warehouse, is approached by her supervisor, Alton, who asks whether she was 'born a man' because he had heard a rumor that 'there was a transvestite in the department.' Chloe disclosed to Alton that she is transgender and asked him to keep this information confidential. After this conversation, Alton instructed Chloe to wear pants to work because a dress would be 'inappropriate,' despite other purchase order coordinators being permitted to wear dresses and skirts. Alton also asks inappropriate questions about Chloe’s anatomy and sexual relationships. Further, whenever Alton is frustrated with Chloe, he misgenders her by using, with emphasis, “he/him” pronouns, sometimes in front of Chloe’s coworkers. Based on these facts, Alton’s harassing conduct toward Chloe is based on her gender identity. Cry me a freakin’ river, Chloe. Alfredo Ortiz, CEO of Job Creators Network, a conservative U.S. advocacy group, was not a fan of the new guidance and called it an “overreach.” Here’s what Ortiz told Just the News: The guidance is a solution in search of a problem, as the overwhelming majority of employers already provide their employees with a respectful working environment, no matter what their backgrounds. While the Biden administration is focused on using the correct pronouns, small businesses are suffering under the weight of resurgent inflation, high energy costs, and a credit crunch due to Democrats' bad policies. Rules about how to treat transgender employees amount to another headache for employers at the worst possible time. Honestly, this is ridiculous. The fact that we are even having this conversation is absolutely outrageous. Our country has much bigger fish to fry than hurting people’s feelings regarding their delusional sense of identity.

On Friday, CBS finally joined the virulently anti-family liberal media’s rhetorical lynch mob fighting to convict Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker in the court of public opinion with a discussion during CBS Mornings and, while ABC moved on, NBC’s Today upped the intensity of its disgusting and hypocritical venom toward a speech about the importance of the family. In other words, Butker stood up for something the three co-hosts on Today have personally and repeatedly discussed is paramount to their lives. Instead of scorning him, they could have mentioned the numerous charities Butker has supported, include Foster’s Outriders charity (which our Craig Bannister explained here).     CBS roped Butker into their “Talk of the Table” segment with fill-in featured co-host Nancy Chen claiming Butker “seemed to dismiss women with career goals.” Oof. We’re already off to a bad start. Butker said, in fact, nothing of the sort of instead argued many of the female graduates would come to see motherhood and marriage as their greatest accomplishment. Co-host and Democratic donor Gayle King and co-host Nate Burleson went first, opining Butker shouldn’t lose his job. “I think everybody has the right to be wrong or hold opinions that others feel are wrong, but he has a right to say what he believes. But it is — it is — was very antiquated thinking, I think, in 2024. But a lot of people — a lot of people feel the way he does. The fact that he got a standing ovation, I think, says a lot,” King added. Co-host Tony Dokoupil made the necessary and obvious point: A Catholic guy at a Catholic college expressing deeply Catholic views...free speech...free religion, free assembly. I mean, when — inclusion in America includes that kind of American as well. And no one speaks up for the traditional family in public life that often...It’s a voice we had not heard in that way. Burleson weighed in again: “[F]ree speech also applies to the criticism that he’s facing because you’re speaking on that platform...[O]ver the 11 years I spent in the NFL, we h and inclusive organizations. And I would hope that the views of athletes represent what I felt in the ave had diverse locker room which we were accepting of everybody.” Burleson and company closed by proving they hadn’t read, watched, or understood the speech (click “expand”): BURLESON: Now, as far as women graduating and getting promotions and leading companies, I fully do support that. I think it was somewhat dismissive, saying that every woman is thinking about marriage and kids — KING: Yeah. BURLESON: — cause they might not. KING: They’re not. BURLESON: Cause women, yes, they can do — CHEN: Yes. BURLESON: — they can be at home. CHEN: Absolutely. BURLESON: They can also be bad asses in the corporate world. CHEN: Yes, yes, yes. Well said. DOKOUPIL: Absolutely and I’m defending his right to say what he said. I’m not —  KING: Yes. DOKOUPIL: — agreeing with him, to be clear. KING: Exactly. BURLESON: Yeah, no. For sure. DOKOUPIL: Yeah. BURLESON: For sure. I think we’re all on the same page here. Over on NBC, Today co-host Savannah Guthrie reveled in tease over the “new outrage” and “uproar grow[ing] over that controversial graduation speech” with “[w]omen inside the NFL now weighing in.”  Guthrie had a second tease and doubled down by calling Butker’s speech about God and parenthood — something Guthrie has written and spoken about extensively — a “firestorm”. Co-host Craig Melvin, a Christ follower who recently released a children’s book in part about parenthood, began the segment by touting the “new fallout surrounding that controversial commencement speech by Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker.” Correspondent Liz Kreutz had the report and immediately (and falsely) labeled Butker’s pro-family, pro-God remarks a “firebrand speech” triggering “growing backlash” for“encouraging women to become what he says is one of the most important roles, homemaker.” Kreutz conceded the wife of the current Chiefs owner voiced support for Butker by saying his remarks weren’t “bigoted”, but pushed her aside in favor of TikTok videos and referred to the Chargers by their former city, San Diego (click “expand”): KREUTZ: But others associated with the game have expressed outrage at Butker’s comments, including the wife of a fellow NFL player. ALLISON KUCH: My life didn’t start when I married my husband. KREUTZ: And a former Chiefs cheerleader. TIKTOKER USER “STEFHILLS”: When you say stay in your lane ten plus times, brah take your own advice. KREUTZ: The San Diego [sic] Chargers taking the opportunity to mock Butker in its schedule release video, showing the player in a kitchen in a simulated video. While for the catholic community, the debate is real. Some support — TIKTOK USER: A Catholic men encouraging Catholic beliefs to Catholic students is a         breath of fresh area. KREUTZ: — but his words rubbed some Catholic students the wrong way. Mary Oger (sp?) graduated from benedictine college in 2019. [TO OGER (sp?] What offended you about his remarks? MARY OGER (sp?): It’s disheartening — [JUMP CUT] — and all of that would boil down to I bet you’re most excited to go out and start a family. Kreutz even found — no joke — a so-called trans Catholic to pile on: KREUTZ: Some in the LGBTQ community saying his comments don’t reflect everyone in the Catholic Church. TRANSFORMATIONS BOARD MEMBER DONATO FATUSEI: I know from my personal experience growing up in the Catholic Church that I was loved on and affirmed as a trans person.

Far-left groups are openly planning the next phase of their disruptive protests within the United States as the anti-Israel encampments on college campuses are winding down with the school year ending.In a document titled, "Bring the Intifada Home," referring to the two waves of terrorism in Israel that claimed thousands of lives, Escalate Network outlined the principles protesters learned while camping out on colleges. Escalate Network is an account on X that was created in April of this year, as the encampments were spreading to colleges across the county."We must escalate our actions against all governments, institutions and corporations who participate in, profit off of, and enable genocide. There must be consequences to their property, income, reputation, privacy, and safety," Escalate Network posted.'We refuse to police and surveil each other and remember the enemies are the state, the pigs, and the war profiteers.' — (@) Far-left groups like Escalate Network have often criticized protesters who agree to disband their encampments after negotiating some concessions from their school. In their view, promises to look at divestment, for example, are not enough."We have nothing to gain by working with government, cops, or the administration. We do not negotiate. We do not share information about each others' identities. We do not seek permission to act. We lean on each other not the state in any of its forms- for radical care, safety, and support," the group explained, adding, "We embrace many methods of attacking our enemies. Whatever is effective, destructive, fun, creative, creates leverage, disrupts power, or changes minds is welcome. We refuse to police and surveil each other and remember the enemies are the state, the pigs, and the war profiteers."At the University of Oregon, five protesters chained themselves to a building on campus, with the administration seemingly choosing to ignore them over the weekend. — (@) The encampment at the University of Washington agreed to disband after occupying a quad for several weeks. In return, protesters got the college to open a Center for Scholarship of Palestine, convene a military industrial and labor task force, and give the protesters representation on a divestment committee, according to KUOW.Like Blaze News?

Conspiracy theorists have been among the most ridiculed class for years, drawing the ire of liberals and conservatives alike. But that might be about to change, because they’re usually right. When the CIA was testing psychedelic substances on unwitting individuals as part of a multi-decade research program into finding a mind-control drug to use on communist spies, conspiracy theorists sounded the alarm bells. The program is known as MK Ultra. “MK Ultra turned out to be 100% true,” Pat says. “Your government’s been experimenting on Americans forever,” Keith agrees. Not only have they been experimenting on Americans — they’ve been watching them. In 2013, former CIA employee Edward Snowden revealed that several Western governments, including the U.S., U.K., Australia, and Canada are engaged in a global surveillance program on both foreign and domestic citizens in cooperation with major telecommunications companies. “Big brother is watching you after all,” Pat says, before moving on to the next conspiracy theory — that the Reagan government played a role in the importation of massive amounts of coke, which fueled the crack epidemic of 1980s and '90s. In 1996, the theory gained credibility when investigative reporter Gary Webb confirmed that the CIA wittingly allowed large amounts of coke to be imported into the United States. Even Kanye West made reference to the conspiracy in his song "Crack Music," writing, “How we stop the Black Panthers, Ronald Reagan cooked up an answer.” Even the tinfoil-hat-wearing favorite, Bohemian Grove, has been proven true. “The idea that the world’s rich and powerful all get together in secluded garden parties and engage in strange cult-like rituals is almost as cliche as conspiracy theories get. That being said, it's actually a faithful description of what goes on at the aptly named Bohemian Grove,” Pat says. “I think there’s also allegations of eating babies and that kind of thing,” he continues. “I don’t know if that part is definitely true, but the carousing includes a ritual entitled ‘The Cremation of Care,’ where dark-cloaked and hooded Grove attendees burn an effigy in front of a 20-foot concrete owl.” Want more from Pat Gray?To enjoy more of Pat's biting analysis and signature wit as he restores common sense to a senseless world, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

The City of Oakland, California, has replaced traffic lights with stop signs at one intersection, and some area residents believe criminal behavior on the part of local homeless persons led to the potentially dangerous change, KPIX reported.Earlier this month, the intersection of E. 12th Street and 16th Avenue, about two miles east of Downtown Oakland, went from a traffic light to a four-way stop. A Fox News report described the intersection as "busy," and KPIX-TV video shows the intersection teeming with businesses and vehicles.Ok, I'm going to cover Oakland. The city is now replacing traffic lights with stop signs because the homeless are allegedly stealing wiring from the electrical boxes. pic.twitter.com/04qQqhn4xg— Jonathan Choe (@choeshow) May 19, 2024 According to the sources who spoke with KPIX, the city made the change to stop signs because people living in a nearby homeless encampment have been stealing copper wire from electrical boxes connected to the traffic lights at the intersection. As a result, the lights malfunctioned for months, often blinking red or blacking out entirely, KPIX reported.Mason Young described the change to a four-way stop as putting a "band-aid" on the problem, but noted a band-aid was better than "bleeding out." His metaphor is graphic, but it may also be apt as the malfunctioning traffic light caused a truck to slam into an auto repair shop located on one corner of the intersection, he claimed. KPIX did not mention whether any injuries resulted from the crash.The owner of the repair shop, Tam Le, claimed the move to a four-way stop is a sign "that the city is giving up on us." Le has owned the shop for more than 25 years, but he said the homeless encampment, which now extends nearly three blocks along E. 12th Street, may soon force him out."Many businesses already closed down on E. 12th St. And I don't know how long we're going to be here. Because once they move to our side of the sidewalk, we will be gone," Le said.The homeless not only create blight along the street and perhaps steal copper wiring, some also steal electricity from underground city sources. A spokesperson for the city told KPIX that the city placed heavy cement blocks atop the access points for the electrical boxes but that determined thieves pull the blocks off and steal the electricity anyway.In its report, KPIX shared a Google Earth photo of the intersection taken on an unknown date. Not only does the photo show a traffic light that was once in working repair, but it also reveals just how much the homeless encampment has begun to encroach on area businesses along the street. Composite screenshot of KPIX-TV report via @choeshow X videoYoung also admitted that crime and violence in the area is a problem. "All my family and relatives that don't live in the area ... they're like, 'You're going to get shot.' And I can't say, 'No, I'm not. There's no gunshots,' because there are," he said.Despite the danger, Young said he still wants to stay. "I want to live here, and I love this neighborhood. I love how diverse it is."A city spokesperson claimed that the stop signs at the intersection are just a temporary measure but did not provide KPIX a timeline for when new traffic lights would be installed.Like Blaze News?

Former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki and fellow MSNBC talking heads Joy Reid and Rachel Maddow chuckled in March upon learning from a Super Tuesday exit poll that Virginia voters were concerned about the costly, deadly, and destabilizing influx of millions of illegal aliens into the nation. The exit poll found that immigration was the top concern among 38% of Republican voters. When asked what should be done about the illegal aliens in the U.S., 61% of Republican respondents in Virginia said to send them packing to wherever they came from. For the well-paid Biden boosters, this was evidently a laughing matter. "Well, Virginia does have a border with West Virginia. Very contested area," quipped Maddow. — (@) The reality of the Biden administration's failure to secure the border has, however, once again adversely impacted the very Americans whose concerns the MSNBC panelists thought laughable. The Campbell County Sheriff's Office arrested an illegal alien Wednesday and charged him with the rape of a minor. The sheriff's office indicated that Hiuder Pedro Javier Sacul-Caal, previously arrested in Virginia for drunk driving, is in the country illegally and has been deported at least once in the past, reported WSET-TV. "Due to the fact that this is an active investigation, the sheriff's office will not be releasing any additional details related to the case," said Sheriff White Clark in a statement. "We are especially sensitive to the fact that these crimes involve a young juvenile who lives here within our community," continued Clark. "Like any criminal investigation conducted by the Campbell County Sheriff's Office, upholding the integrity of a case is priority for our department and the Campbell County Commonwealth's Attorney." Sacul-Caal is being held without bond at the Blue Ridge Regional Jail. — (@) Sacul-Caal is hardly the first illegal alien to appear on the radar of Virginia law enforcement officials in recent months. The Campbell County Sheriff's Office arrested Renzo Mendoza Montes, a 32-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela, in February in connection to the rape of a 14-year-old girl the previous month. Montes was charged with one felony county of carnal knowledge of a child without force and one felony charge of taking indecent liberties with a minor, reported WDBJ-TV. Montes stole into the country in September 2023. He was detained then released by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol in El Paso. In March, illegal alien Isauro Garcia Cruz was arrested in Virginia for the statutory rape of a 15-year-old girl who was found in a forest the previous month. He was ultimately sentenced to one year in prison. Chief Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Chris Dolen told WSET that Cruz also faces the following charges in Ohio: felony kidnapping; unlawful sexual conduct with a minor; gross sexual imposition; and interference with custody. David Antonio Calderon, a 46-year-old illegal alien from El Salvador, allegedly murdered a 32-year-old Charles Town woman, torched her body, then assaulted three men in Jefferson County. He was arrested on May 8 in Frederick County, Virginia, reported the Spirit of Jefferson. Like Blaze News?
